Can I just say "redonkulousness" is my new favorite word?

I'm with AuntieMame on this one- why associate kitties with that *&%#*?

I saw this site for the first time a few weeks ago and couldn't stop laughing the whole time I was checking it out.

charlie chaplin, or groucho marx? In this case, half a moustache is better than none. With that elegant black top hat, he would not want to be a member of any club that would have him as a member. :-)

sorry, this is NOT cute; bad taste...

please remove this entry if you leave it as "Hitler"

Poor little kittys. :D

Couldn't they just be "moustache cats"? (They do look pretty funny, tho).

Tiberia
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 02:28 PM

This is lame.

Hitler = not cute.

Eh?

Gus
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 02:45 PM

LOL I knew someone who had a cat with a moostache like that, she called it Moo Kitty I think, I told her she should call him Hitler...but then, I have that non-PC sense of humor sometimes I guess. That was the first thing I thought of before I saw the link name. sorry peeps!
Anyway, cute kitty!!!!!

It looks like it escaped from Cute Overlord!

Tim
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 02:47 PM

hmm...it seems as though ALL the cats on the hitlercats website are glaring evilly at the camera. i wonder if they're added based on 'stache + expression.

I don't post that often, but I LOVE this site and check it daily.

I have to agree with a few of the previous posts-- this site is no place for ANY kind of reference to such a dreaded name.

HeartSong
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 02:56 PM

I'm sorry but that site is funneeeeee.
maybe it's not "cute" enough for here, but I got a kick out of it!

VOLDEMORT!!!

There. I said it. Now everybody can go back to chuckling at the mini-mustachioed kittehs.

Saska
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:01 PM

OH Come On, it's a cute kitty! and YES it DOES look like Hitler! Life must be hard for you guys without a sense of humor. Don't hate da kitty, hate da game. PS.. Tony James rocks.

Better to make light of the past, even if it is a dark corner, then to sweep it under the rug. Cute picture :O

 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:03 PM

'Furher'. So very nice.

This cat perfurs to be called Mr. Hilter. He follows the World Cup and also likes to go hiking through England's mountain's green with his friends Mr. Bimmler and Ron Vibbentrop.

Aubrey
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:04 PM

Oh, please. Don't start with the "not funny" and "not cute" comments. If geniuses like Charlie Chaplin and Mel Brooks and Monty Python can make fun of Hitler, don't you think your outrage is a bit, well... self-indulgent?

P.S. By making fun of tyrants, we reduce their power over us. Even Gandhi knew that.

Saska, LoL!

Darcy
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:21 PM

when he was making "the producers" for the first time, mel brooks said, in the face of mass controversy, that the best way to deal with the evils of the past was to laugh at it. personally i agree with him. otherwise we are showing a form of reverence and creating more fear.

on another note - on the hitlercats website - check out the third or fourth down - it looks like the plug and lead go into the cat. A catlamp!!!

I think Tony James has the "Colonel Klink" lingo dead on! I felt my eyes beginning to squint and one eyebrow rise up as I read it. :)

Aubrey, I'd forgotten all about that. Thanks so much for making me hork milk out my nose!

<3 Mrs. Bialystock!

Hehe, someone had to say it ;)

Laura
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:52 PM

Wow. I really don't know how to feel about this one. It ain't the cat's fault though.

Someone commented recently that the Pet of the Week at my shelter looked like Hitler. I suggested adding that to her description online but was voted down.

ShelleyTambo
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 03:59 PM

Aw, DAMN, Shelley! Don't your colleagues at the shelter understand that this is JUST the sort of detail that might attract the right warped-humor, eccentric adopter? Pity...

J. Bo
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:05 PM

Wow. I don't really want to say anything much about this, except that I *can* see how the "Hitlercats" thing could be offensive/hurtful to the surviving folks who lived through the Holocaust.

I'm with AM, wanting to see chaplincats instead...

E. Collison
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:21 PM

'Scuse me, but it looks like Mr. Hitler kitty's look of annoyance is the same squeezy-eyed face my cat makes when he's happy. The one paw streched out and the other paw slightly curled proves that Mr. Hitler kitty is actually making happy-kitty-paws.

I am totally with Saska-

VOLDEMORT!!!

Lauri
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:30 PM

Umm... not the worst thing I've seen as a jew and to be honest its definately not the cats' fault. Sadly though most people wouldn't get the Chaplin/Groucho reference in recent generations, people do however get the Hitler reference all too well. Leave it to a *@%#&%*$ to make a funny mustach famous.. oy... poor little kittys...

M-
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:31 PM

Didn't the Historic Anderson (Cat) House have a Hitler kitty in the sink? I seem to remember it did...

vikkitikkitavi
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:33 PM

All I know is, this kitty is so freaking anerable I just want to grab him and squeeze him and kiss him all over the place. He would be helpless to my ministrations.

kelly
 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:51 PM

my only beef with this site is that it too often confuses "cute" with "clever" or "mildly amusing."

yeah, some cats look like they have mustaches, and some of said mustaches might resemble those of various famous people throughout history. but it's not cute. it's not even that amusing.

now, post more paw pads and fuzzywuzziesnorglekins.

 |  Jun 27, 2006 at 04:55 PM

"I'm with AM, wanting to see chaplincats instead..."

But I always preferred Keaton to Chaplin...so whenever I see a kitty, staring, stone-face like, could it actually channeling Buster?
