    Um, thanks, I guess! I was about to go and get breakfast, but I think I'll wait for a bit... I went to the site, and I loved the following comment from "justfrosting:"

    "Wow! Are these yummy looking...even cannibals need a cake."

    (To make things perfect, my verification word is "thoprode," which sounds like an uncomfortable medical procedure.)

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.

Of course not all Bonnard paintings have images of cats. But, hey, I'm a cat blogger! For some reason or another, I started looking for paintings of cats. There are so many. Also see here . But the Bonnard paintings captivated me, the more so the closer I looked. Apart from Bonnard's portraits of Ambroise Vollard with his cat/s, the cats are less obviously presented. But, if you look with an attuned eye, the cat is THERE, just as a cat always is. Not just "there", but often the most animated and intent being in the room.
