big cat roarsday: big cats and a big… pickle?
Check out these photos of the International Exotic Animal Sanctuary big cats playing with a giant pickle toy as part of their enrichment program. They crack me up!
cat tat tuesday: “unlucky” cats?
Just as our wonderful Pixelcat likes Japanese lucky cats, or Maneki Nekos, I really love “unlucky” black cats. Of course, I absolutely DO NOT believe black cats are actually bad luck–nor am I superstitious about the number 13. However, I do love the look of so-called “unlucky” black cats… Like this one!
Of course, while I love the detail in that particular cattoo, it’s not exactly a style I’m really fond of. I’m thinking about modifying the design of this classic Chat Noir a bit for my first cattoo:
Some tattoo places have tattoo sheets specifically made for Friday the 13th, where they offer tiny Friday the 13th tatts for $13-$20! I really like some the the tiny 13th kitties I’ve seen:
All in good fun! :3
maneki neko monday: maneki wall art
Tumblr user Tigerlily33, a self-described amateur artist and photographer, painted these cute Maneki Nekos on her wall. How awesome would it be to wake up and see those every day? Click the image to view a larger version with all the details!
hummingbirds are the biggest tease
This Cat Versus Human comic was too funny to pass up a repost. I LOVE the fluffy riled up kitty. It cracks me up. Especially it climbing up the screen and sliding down. Ha ha!
Also, do your cats make noises at birds and other outdoor critters? Mine do, and it never fails to amuse me. I call it ‘chirping’ – do you have a word for it?
