My daughter Lauren was in Paris last week with her mother. They visited the pet shops down by the Seine, and Tina snapped this picture of Lauren with a Martian cat in a cage. The sign reads ‘Do not put your fingers in the cage’. The cat is lucky not to live in the Lake District.
It’s a Terminator cat!
That was my first thought too but as a big Terminator fan, I knew Terminators have red eyes. 😀
Oh yeah? Just how many Terminator cats have you seen? 😉
Besides, green light is higher energy than red light, and I’d say regular cats generally have higher energy than humans, so I think a Terminator cat might be higher energy than a Terminator humanoid.
I actually contemplated that it may be a terminator cat as I was writing that. The ultimate human infiltration unit.
But beware, this is my terminator 😀
Aha. Tiny, so he can sneak thru air ducts, eh?
Wasn’t there a movie about GI Joe-type dolls that were actually self-aware robots?
Yes, I guess he terminates tiny things.
Supercat, complete with x-ray vision.
In the cat’s defense…the camera could have been a weapon. Lesson to learn: Don’t point things at aliens that they could mistake as a threat, you could get zapped.
Clearly this feline is using its internal nightvision goggles.
I guess that proves Curiosity didn’t kill the cat.
Good one!
I’m curious – did you have to digitally alter the picture to fix ‘red-eye’ in your daughter’s picture? Just this once, it would have been kinda cool for her to have red eyes while the cat had green eyes.
Ha! I thought it looked better without the red eye so removed it. You might be right though… Good spot!
And now I’ve got the Yoko Kano song Cats On Mars stuck in my head.
Not that that’s a bad thing.
Must be why the Egyptians worshipped cats…. they saw the light!
Must be why ancient Egyptians worshipped cats….they saw the *light*!
Lauren was lucky to escape the clutches of that cat. It looks like it’s related to these:

I begin to understand why they might want to remove their eyes in the Lake District…
