      No. It’s the same longkitten whose top and bottom are different colors. This is used to demonstrate the Shcrödinger’s Tube experiment: When a kitten passes an end of a tube, it can be of any color.
      And since the color is chosen at random at the moment of passing the end, the kitten can be seen as two different colors at the different ends, if the kitten is long enough. In this case, this longkitten perfectly shows this effect.

      You post this and yet you fail to understand the science smh.
