I'm trying to figure out if that's a photoshop job or if someone really did that to their cat! :bugeye:

I'm guessing photoshop. The layering would be incredibly easy.

I'm pretty sure it's done in Photoshop. As is this one:

Well, spawn took washable non-toxic crayola markers and did the cats when she was little. They had purple mohawks and red and green spots. It was hysterical. How she got them to stay still long enough for the full treatment, I don't know.

Ah, seeing several of them, it looks more like a photoshop trend. But, when it's just one, well, I've seen people do strange things to their pets with hairdye, so it didn't escape the realm of possibility for me. I like the plaid cat! :biggrin:

Do you suppose that conversation was all about who was going to get their ears washed, and who was going to do the washing?

I was watching that video and my cat came flying into my room trying to figure out where these meowing noises were coming from. Eventually he hopped up on my desk, sat next to the speakers and stared at them. He must have thought if he waited long enough the source of the sound would emerge.

One of my cats hissed and all the fur on his back stood up. Lol he didn't like what they were saying at all.

Yeah! Flannel cat pajamas rock! I can't wait to go home and get into mine. I've had to run all over campus in the rain today, so I've had to spend most of the day in wet clothes. pleh

I got those kitty PJs at Victoria's Secret. First, they put them on sale, then they sent me a $10 off coupon in the mail, so I finally gave in and bought them.

Evo, I want to see your cat and mouse slippers. Those sound cool!

I'm trying to figure out what they are, it looks like either the cat is a race car and the mouse is the driver, or the cat is a bed and the mouse is sleeping in it. :bugeye:

:smile: I love watching my cats play-fight. Then if you make a movement they stop and stare at you just like that.
