         Could be a spokescat for Good Humor.

Van cats (white with one amber and one blue eye) under
protection at the Cat House (!) of Van Yüzüncü Yıl University
are being fed ice cream to keep them cool in the hot summer
weather.  The cats with their white coats and sensitive skin are
adversely affected by the heat

Because ice cream has a lot of calcium it is good for the cats'
bones but too much of it causes tonsilitis and problems in the
upper respiratory area. Mindful of these drawbacks, the cats'
keepers give them specific amounts of ice cream on very hot
days.
