You've heard of Picasso - but what about Purr-casso?

Check out these images from Burton Silver's book Why Paint Cats.

And look closely - are they real or is someone pulling your whiskers?

Hi, Lady Jag:

The paint job on that Cat just ain't right!

I wonder what the Viking Kitties would have to say about this.

I know it's nearly impossible to give my cat a pill...

Have you tried Pill Pockets? www.nutecforpets.com and go to products and then Pill Pockets. If he/she isn't taking horse pill size stuff they may work. They do for my kitties.

Hi, JD!

What kind of paint job on a cat is right?



Cat Fish?

I have seen in a bookstore the book Why Paint Cats a few years ago. The pictures were done in sufficient detail that I don't think they were Photoshopped.

I saw that book last Xmas at Borders. It had neat pictures but I pitied the poor kitties, that paint can't be comfortable on their fur and they lick it off anyway, a possibly toxic consequence, if not bad tasting. No, don't paint the kitties. Photoshop them!

I stole him from somethingawful.com. The URL for the contest I got him from is http://archives.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2063107 , but it was a while ago and the thread now has lots of red X's.
