Catvertising!

January 29, 2012

This funny, fake ad for catvertising (cats are taking over the world people, or, according to some cats I may or may not know, they already have, but humans simply haven’t noticed yet.) really does get the mind going.

Think about how much time we all spend looking at cat videos (and dog videos, for that matter), and I think someone may be on to something here.

What do you think about catvertising? Do you think throwing a cute cat into an ad for whatever product you’re selling will work? Is there a fat cat on high making sure this happens and is raking in all the dough while we mere humans toil away for cats?

So many questions…

Anyway, enjoy the video, it’s lots of fun and very clever. Happy Sunday!

Cute Little Doormouse Snores

January 28, 2012

This is one little doormouse with a really big snore. He kind of reminds me of my cat when he sleeps (except my cat is furrier, bigger – way, way, way, way bigger – blacker, and quite possibly more evil -although evil in a good way – ), what with all those noises.

I can also see, apart from everyone watching this saying ‘awww’ to themselves (or loudly, depending whether you’re alone, with people, or simply don’t care), that that is one damned happy and content little doormouse, one who’s very comfy with the hand upon which he’s sleeping.

That’s another difference between the doormouse and my cat: if my cat was to fit into the hand of a human type person that easily, then that human type person would have to be a giant.

Enjoy the little doormouse!

Woof Wednesday: Star Of ‘The Artist’ Performs Tricks On Ellen

January 25, 2012

And by star, I’m not talking about one of those silly human people who are always jumping about, making fools of themselves, releasing sex tapes and splitting up their probably fake marriages for a piece of the limelight and much needed publicity when they are launching their next film/album/show/whatever.

I’m talking the REAL star of the Golden Globe winning film The Artist: Uggie the Dog!

Yes, the adorable and shining light that is Uggie graced our TV screens last week, and here’s his performance on Ellen.

To call it cute is an understatement. The awws will rise from your throat magically and everything will suddenly seem better for a little while after watching the clip. Uggie is adorable, smart and talented.

Oh, and Uggie, about your snub by the lack of Oscar nomination for your performance: you were robbed!

My Dog Ben

January 24, 2012

Yes, yes, I know this is a kid’s song (note: I refuse to spell it ‘kidz’, I mean, please, help them learn to spell correctly, it’s important!), but it’s cute, fun and makes you feel happy.

Also, sometimes I think we need a bit of innocence of childhood and our animals to permeate our world, no matter whether we’re at work or feeling rather cynical and burned out. Things like this help. Just like the weird Kona Cat thing helps us all just cackle hysterically (fact: this is how my roommate actually described me last night as I made him watch the Kona Cat video) at the weirdness of it all.

It’s about to be Wednesday, go visit your inner child and be one with the brilliance, purity and innocence of your sweet furbaby best friend forever.

N2 The Talking Cat

January 22, 2012

Now, apparently this is episode 8 of season 2 of this singing/talking cat internet show. So, no, I have absolutely no idea what’s going on. No idea at all. Except that it might make you want to hug your pet close and whisper soothing words into his/her ear, or maybe make you drink huge quantities of booze, or maybe rejoice at the bizarreness of it all.

I have no idea. I’m bamboozled.

I don’t know why a Siamese cat is zooming about in his rather cheap (but magic and flying! yes, flying!!) blue litter box, or why Transformer dogs are chasing him in their cushy beds, or why we get to spell out S-I-A-M-E-S-E  K-O-N-A  C-A-T.

Basically, it’s Sesame Street on crack. I think it’s crack. No, actually, I’m betting it’s Sesame Street on Catnip.

That explains everything.

Oh, and please, will some brave soul go and watch all the episodes and report back? Thank you.
