THIS CAT SCARES ME
Seek shelter immediately. This is not a warning.
Many thanks to Kristine D. for sending me this picture, containing one (1) human, and one (1) freakish housecat.
But, again, I'm left wondering: Photoshopped? The giant dog was a hoax. Can we trust any gigantic animals anymore? To whom do we turn?
This looks less suspect to me, were it not for the pure, unbelievable, ginormousness involved. Your opinion? For real, or no?


again, the photoshop was not applied to the cat, but to the Little person holding the cat...
I don't really believe that, nor do I obsess with little people, but hey - you made the picture a comment thread...so there.
YES, BE AFRAID... VERY AFRAID

Norweigan Forest cat...I pity the small dog that finds itself in the presence of this..this.."house cat".

I used to have a cat that was slightly smaller then that one in the pic. He was a Norweigan Forest cat and a Maine Coon cat mix...... Belive it!

For some well-photoshopped pics, look at http://www.bloggerheads.com/star_wars/default.asp. There's around 150 versions of Han, Leia, and Luke pictured together.

Uhm, I don't rightly know what happened to the HTML link I placed in the last comment. Poof, it was gone.
As I try to preview this new comment with the link in it, I see the link gets stripped out. Something about HTML comments not allowed (this, as I look up at Monica's link to Snopes). So, click on my name to go see the Star Wars photoshop collection.

that's the most intense case of static cling I've ever seen.

I think it's a toddler dressed in a Thundercats Lion-o costume.
