CATatonic!

I have a bizarre fascination with pet owners, specifically pet owners that take incredibly bizarre pictures of their cats and post them on the Internet. On the one hand, it's funny to look at a cat with a custom-made wig, that is on the basis that the owner intends humor and not, say, genuine pride in how said cat looks in a horse-hair pink wig. On the other hand, I can't help but wonder what makes these pet owners tick. Cats are fairly apathetic creatures and will pretty much allow a person to do whatever they want as long as they are fed and allowed to sleep eighteen hours a day. Do they believe that their little Whiskers and Fluffy-poo would be more comfortable in a coffee cup? Would my little fur ball be more satiated as a bunny? More importantly, do you really think that your kitten wants to be friends with those two ducklings? Answer: I don't care and neither should you. Just enjoy the absurdity.
