Caturday felids

December 27, 2014 • 7:00 am

Today’s Caturday Felid will be a scrappy affair, cobbled together from bits and bobs sent by various readers. Still, like Maru, I do my best.

First, a nice photo from the Opera San Jose website, showing a real tuxedo cat.

And from msn.com we have a giant snowcat. Whoevever built it is not only a big ailurophile, but an superb craftsman with the white stuff.

And here is a labor of love by SuperFan Builds, reported by BoredPanda. They have loving created a kitty-litterbox Hobbit Hole and a Barad-dûr scratching post.

They surely put the fan in fanatic, but the cat appears to approve.

Click through here to admire more photos of this build.

And a late addition, an eager student LOLcat.

And lastly the Chanukkats, whose staff writes: To the left is Stinky and Tabby is on the right. I think they are interested in knocking over the menorah!

  1. Serendipity roolz. Still.
    I’m listening to a podcast as I scroll through and the word “Cheezburger” rings into my ear as the Bara-dûr scrolls into view. That ain’t no Dark Tower – that’s a cheezeburger spike!
    And now I’m channelling … one of the Star Wars characters.
    Who was the Death Star’s ships’s cat, and how did he/she get off?

    1. That would have been The Shredder, I believe. And no trouble for him to get off the ship; he just walked through the walls, same as any cat would.

        1. Ah, but the Door into Summer seems to be the one door cats have the most trouble with…Baihu’s been looking for it here the past few days, with no luck….

          3. Doesn’t mind breathing vacuum though.
            In other news, I watched most of Alien – Director’s Cut last night. An alternative tag line might be “She went back for the cat!”

  2. It seems obvious now, but I have not seen the use of what I guess is powdered charcoal to help define a snow sculpture. I will try to remember it the next time we build a disturbing Calvin and Hobbes type snow sculpture.
