I can has cheezburger-- Adventure!!!

By VG -
So, I've long been a fan of I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER. I love that place.

In a wild moment I decided to submit one of my Tootsie pictures (from my post yesterday), and caption it.


I just checked back, and OMG! others have submitted a caption for my Tootsie pic!

Above is here.

Above is here.

Above is here.

I have to say, that was the greatest accolade I might have hoped for!!! Someone else captioned my picture! Shhhh... keep it on the lowdown... I don't want to have Tootsie thinking she's special... **laughing**

Now, I'm not entirely sure where you will get with this link, but it's all I got, for now.. As I said, this is an adventure!

p.s. I made sure I got a copy of Tootsie's registration form when I adopted her. Her "official" name is "Cameowcoons Thumb's Up".

    OOOOH... Tootsie can has cheezburger? That's exciting! I'm a huge fan too. I hope the fame doesn't go to her head, but she looks like a sensible kitteh. Well, except for that feather and string thing...

    I found your website through Ways of the Cat, and followed with interest your "Maine Coon" section, as I have three of my own...

    I am especially intrigued to know that Tootsie has Cameowcoons lineage, because my Maine Coon girls do, as well (see here: http://electric-monk.net/cats/KittyWebpage-Pages/Image310.html). Cameowcoons is the cattery through which my breeder started her line, in fact.

    What confuses me is how your gal ended up in California and in a shelter... although if she's a polydactal, she isn't showable, which probably has something to do with that. (Not that I think it's right; just that a breeder with an unshowable cat might be less... scrupulous about who they sold them).

    Hi Lise!

    I hope you check back to read my response.

    Even tho I reference California a lot (that's where I was born and raised, and the home of my heart) I am actually now in one of those Southern states (that was my best "day job" choice).

    I don't know how Tootsie ended up down here in the first place, because the info I have doesn't give those details. irrc Cameowcoons is in NH.

    However, Tootise apparently had a local owner, who surrendered her to a shelter bec. the owner became ill, and could no longer care for her. That much I know from the online description.

    I was able from the "registration certificate" I asked for to find the Cameowcoons website, and find pictures of her sire and dam. But the website is a bit odd, and last time I tried to check it out, it hung up my computer repeatedly.

    I certainly wasn't expecting to adopt a "show cat"- I got hooked on the "Maine coon thing" and that finally got me past "kitty grief" to again be owned by a cat. ;)

    I will check out your web page- thanks for that info!

    Lise!

    I checked out your pictures.

    I see a certain family resemblance! Tootsie is a silver patched tabby. She doesn't have quite the "ruff" or the huge furry tail that your girls do. Still...

    Is there somewhere I can email you to compare notes? I can delete that comment/ info after I've read, if you wish.

    *grins* Smoke Signal was my Lira and Brianna's grand-sire, in fact :)

    (I'm based out of MA and my breeder is based out of NH, where Cameowcoons is based).

    I'm at lisefrac AT gmail DOT com, if you want to converse further.

Is Cartoon Cat a creepypasta?

One person answers the question on a forum website and they say that Cartoon Cat is not a creepypasta. Yes, there was one answer to the question. Now there are two!! What is creepypasta? Who is Cartoon Cat? As I understand it, "creepypasta" is a sort of slick, hip but misleading description for unnerving stories posted on the Internet designed to shock people.  It seems to me that the scary Cartoon Cat could be involved in a creepypasta story. His whole reason for existing is to scare people and create creepypasta so I disagree with the guy who says that Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta.  I think I see the point, though. The individual character called Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta because he is an individual. However, he can be involved in creepypasta horror stories because that's his purpose in life. Phew, I think I've got that out of the way. Cartoon Cat. Photo: Fandom.com It is a bit surprising because when I went onto the search engine Bing looking for "ca...

A  harlequin cat is a cat with a predominantly white coat and a few colour-patches. The picture shows you: Harlequin cat. Photo: Buzzfeed Harlequin cats are not a cat breed. We are describing a type of cat coat. The pattern is caused by the white-spotting gene (piebald gene) which masks the cat's true colour. It usually appears in irregular patches. favouring the lower parts of the body.  Associated:  White spotting gene charts Other variants of white and black cats caused by the white spotting gene are: Mitted: white paws Locket: white patch on chest Buttons: several small white belly-patches Bicolour: half white and half coloured in patches Harlequin: as mentioned above Van: white coat with inverted V colour patch on the top of the head near the ears and on the tail Tuxedo: black cat with white legs, underside and chest or just a white chest Jellicle cat: black and white cat sometimes called jellicle cat.
