And I thought my scoliosis was bad

Paws are like, tewtelly up!

This cat is named: "Blanket Michael Jackson", which is ALMOST reason alone to post him. But if you look at the Paws Uptitude™ then you know there is that extra push it takes to get on C.O.

Curled and loving it, Jules I-W!

It's ultra-bendy cat.

Plus, his white stripe makes an extremely loverly curve, there.

MJ looks like my Yankee!! Laurie C, doesn't he look like Yankee? The black-and-whites are cookie cats. Pretty noses look *extra* pink in all the B&W floof.

Lezlee,

LOL. but blanket is prettier. and sexier. and most likely smarter.
ya know, I caught the last 20 minutes or so of "Showgirls" on cable and I was mesmerized.
Rarely do wooden acting, (unintentionally) hilarious dialogue, and redonkolous script come together in such a way. it was a Perfect Storm.

jaypo, you're right about Yankee. As you are right in all things.

The one thing I've always admired about cats is their ability to sleep anywhere, anytime, in any position and make it look totally comfortable! Wish I could do that!

you see Showgirl; i see Ben & Jerry's twisted flavor ice cream. (w/2 marshmallow dabs.)

Awww! It looks like that white stripe in his belly is tie-dyed on! Totally cute.

Oh, I am SO going down to the Toronto Humane Society tonight and get me another boy tuxedo kitty. I had one years ago -- his name was Tuk, not Tux. Also I think a geriatric lady, since the THS has a real overflow problem right now.

TJ,

hasn't 2SJ warned you about your insistence on seeing pretzels where croissants is the proper reference?
thread gently, m'boy: you are *this* close to lose your British passport.

Double that YAY for Karen! The oldies are so grateful for anything that comes their way.

I say we remake Showgirls starring Blanket Michael Jackson and a cast of kitties. It would probably be more interesting, and WAY cuter. It could be the start of a whole new YouTube trend.

lezlee
 |  Aug 18, 2006 at 07:56 AM

Aww, he looks just like my cat Jakespeare. Pink nose, pawsitude and all. The only thing is he isn't as clean as Blanket.

Cute for sure, but the paws up phraseology is sketchy. To some people, "paws up" means a four legged critter is daid, as in "Millie went paws up." (George Bush the first) Is the double-entendre based on one of the cuteness rules?

Ajax

YAY Karen!!

THS is near my old stomping grounds; say "hi" to the neighbourhood for me...

A thinker
 |  Aug 18, 2006 at 08:01 AM

That might be the bestest name for a cat ever. EVER.

Oh, and he's cute.

michelle
 |  Aug 18, 2006 at 08:02 AM

I'll try to get some good matches for Bwai and Gril, my two THS sisters from 2001. Gril is a sleek black lady with energy to burn. Bwai is long-haired and is, shall we say, big-boned. Not only does she have an udder that dangles almost to the floor, she has twelve (yes, twelve) nipples, which you can only see just after her annual shave. Sigh.

PuffyPerson -- just changing your screen name doesn't make you someone else, y'know?

Lezlee -- that, I'd watch. FYI, I like Google Video better than YouTube. ;)

Ajax -- "Paws Up" does not equal "Belly Up." Feel free to inform Teh Shrub.

Blanket Michael Jackson?!!?!? Are you effing kidding me? That is the best name ever. EVER!!!

That's my Jakespeare. As you can see he's trying hard to imitate Blanket Michael Jackson here. I also adopted him from the Toronto Humane Society three years ago. He says 'bless you' or 'Weow-weow'after we sneeze.

Why is he being oh-so-coy with his paw pads??

sarahk
 |  Aug 18, 2006 at 08:13 AM

I luvs me the tuxedo kittehs. And his back piddy-paws are scrunched up like what my mom used to call "bunny paws", usually achieved by rubbing just under the pads. BMJ has scored a bunny-paw/snorgle belly combo!

beezie687

...gotta keep SOMETHING in reserve, SarahK.

Theo
 |  Aug 18, 2006 at 08:14 AM

A breathtakingly sinuous curve! And such clean paws! I would snorgle, but such impertinence would result in a cat turban, accessorized by rabbit kicks in one ear and teeth in the other. So a reverent distance will be maintained.

BBs4me--Jakespeare is BMJ's double! And the talking is high-larious. Check this out if you haven't already:

SarahK - are you referring to jakespeare? I think it's because his previous owners declawed him. He's a little sensitive about that.

This tux is a Gothic capital letter just waiting to happen.

I seem to discern a 'Y' shape - should there ever be an animal version of the Village People's "YMCA", again, this tux would be invaluable.

'Morning, peeps.

jaypo, that video is hilarious. The last cat is actually a little scary. He sounds like he's possessed! I kept waiting for his head to spin around.
