Every Whiskertip in Place

By Jordan Ginsberg • Jul 13th, 2009 • Category: ModBlog


If you’re anything like me, you’re largely unimpressed by cats. “Oh, you’re enjoying your Sunday afternoon, sitting in your favorite chair and catching up on some reading? I’m just going to ninja my way across the room and then bite the shit out of your feet. Happy birthday, asshole.” Give me a big, dumb, loyal dog with nothing remotely resembling an independent streak any day of the week. With that said, I had a hard time not enjoying this portrait of a lost (but not forgotten, obviously) cat of Harriet’s by Valerie Vargas at Frith Street Tattoo in London, England. After the jump, we zoom out to see this cold-blooded killer letting loose on an errant bumblebee.

BME Shop is holding a 20-percent-off sale on most items this week until midnight on Thursday, July 16! Click here for details.

    Lovely tat, but man that is one chubby kitten!!

  18. the_logic_of_crocodiles on July 14th, 2009 at 1:27 pm:

    13: she spent all of her time sat on my belly so it made sense to put her there

    16: it is more me that is chubby than the kitten. due to the uhh roundness of the area it is hard to photo it looking normal

    and for anyone wondering about the bee, she used to eat bumblebees for fun

    #17 Just remember you’re eating for two now! ::grin::
