Heh! The kitties are so patient.

2 Shannon 06.01.06 at 1:42 pm

… wow. These are not happy kitties.

3 sweet jane 06.01.06 at 1:42 pm

LOVE the short tie.

4 ariel 06.01.06 at 1:42 pm

cute or sad?

5 kariboo 06.01.06 at 1:43 pm

LOL! i used to have the frog-cat up on my desktop months ago! i had completely forgotten about these guys!
*wipes tear away*
good times…..

6 Shannon 06.01.06 at 1:43 pm

Also, for a minute I thought I’d clicked onto stuffonmycat instead of cuteoverload. XD

7 Connie 06.01.06 at 1:43 pm

ROTF LMAO No way would my cats hold still for those outfits! But I luv em!!

8 Jujube 06.01.06 at 1:43 pm

The eyes! The ears! You’re killing me!!!

9 Laurie C 06.01.06 at 1:47 pm

Oh, the indignity! The pick ruff is kind of cute, though, since it matches the nose so perfectly.

10 Laurie C 06.01.06 at 1:47 pm

“pink”, I meant, not “pick” of course.

11 Emma B 06.01.06 at 1:49 pm

This is a definite case of feline abuse if ever I did see one. Poor pussycats – the humiliation. But we all love it nonetheless.

12 chunkstyle 06.01.06 at 1:51 pm

Yes, I am going to have my kitties go corporate now. Neckties, tiny briefcases, late nights at the office, a scotch at home, and a Sharper Image stock ticker in the living room.

13 libby 06.01.06 at 1:51 pm

those are the creepiest eyes i have ever seen! (the white cat’s)

14 EL 06.01.06 at 1:53 pm

If you like that then you will love… CAT TOWN! http://www.spatch.net/cattown/index.html

15 tm 06.01.06 at 1:54 pm

wow. revenge will be quick and sweet. i love the white kitty….reminds me of my old one. i lurved her good.

16 amyc 06.01.06 at 1:55 pm

You’ve seen “Cat Town,” right?

http://www.spatch.net/cattown/episode1.html

17 Connie 06.01.06 at 1:59 pm

Oh my… I am in trouble now… sitting here laughing and crying at work after viewing CAT TOWN… thanks for the link!!!!

18 brownamazon 06.01.06 at 2:02 pm

Ooo, Scottish folds! With wee accessories! Someone obviously made these lovingly by hand. I’m surprised there isn’t a kitty kilt. With a sporran made out of Burns’ “wee, tim’rous, sleekit, cooring beaties” (aka a mouse).

19 Courtney 06.01.06 at 2:03 pm

That first cat looks the saddest. Full head coverage! But the second cat looks taken aback. I hope he wasn’t engaging in any illegal stock trading!

20 A thinker 06.01.06 at 2:19 pm

The amusing thing is that the cats manage to look so dignified, and yet so pained, while clothed in their ridiculous gear. I do wonder what cats are thinking when we do stuff like this to them.

21 Laurie C 06.01.06 at 2:21 pm

brownamazon, I’m pretty sure that the pink collar ruff in pic #3 is a woman’s hair scrunchie.

22 mariser 06.01.06 at 2:29 pm

oh my, scottish folds. *almost* equivalent to yeller kittehs in personality and awesomeness.

the pinnacle of evolution is, of course, a yeller scottish fold, as exemplified by Milk:
http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2006/04/lets_get_friday.html

23 mariser 06.01.06 at 2:30 pm

are the 1st and 3rd pics the same white cat?

24 Tony James 06.01.06 at 2:34 pm

Definite candidates for CuteOverlord… ;)

25 alice 06.01.06 at 2:36 pm

LOL to the Engrish at Cat “Prin” – especially the instructions. Apparently, you’re supposed to cheer and yell while you dress up your poor cat and give the cat a “hub.”

Gorgeous cats, though! The first cat is definitely thinking, “I’m going to get you back. Just you wait.”

26 Leilani 06.01.06 at 2:39 pm

When I was a wee little lass, I used to have a brown & black tiger cat named Butterball. I’d dress ol’ Butter up in my doll-baby clothes, put him in the doll stroller, and push him around the neighborhood. He was a saint amongst cats. I still miss him 30+ years later!

27 Lillith 06.01.06 at 2:40 pm

I love the kitteh death glares.

Pure loathing on Frog!Kitteh, righteous indignation on Tie!Kitteh and long suffering grief on FuzzyPinkBoa!Kitteh.

28 Mrono 06.01.06 at 2:44 pm

How could you not?!

I’m slow, almost an hour and i’m already the uptinth comment.

29 pheral 06.01.06 at 2:55 pm

urgh.

30 M- 06.01.06 at 2:56 pm

Pic#1: Haha asshole, now take it off…
Pic#2: She did again, she must die…
Pic#3: You realize I must kill you now, right? No….no, seriously …

*g* These poor cats, the indignity of dressing them up is bad, but documenting it for the world to see… ouch.

31 TheIdleReceptionist 06.01.06 at 2:58 pm

There is a NHYEEEREEE in there just WAITING to come out.

32 Kate 06.01.06 at 2:58 pm

Wow, those cats are patient! They’re not giving the camera the best look, but my cat wouldn’t last a second in an outfit like that, not even talking about a picture being taken.

Very very cruel things we do to cats to make them even cuter. =P

33 Wisefool 06.01.06 at 3:04 pm

Oh sweet Mother! These pictures are clearly an example of what is not okay in cat ownership. I’m agog.

34 George W. Bush 06.01.06 at 3:06 pm

I don’t care what anyone says; the white kitten is unmercifully cute looking.

Of course he/she would look cuter WITHOUT the accessories!

35 Jan Spencer 06.01.06 at 3:07 pm

That’s it…I’m done…”passes out from too much cute” THUD!

36 Trish 06.01.06 at 3:09 pm

WhiteKitty: “If you wanted a duck you should have gotten a flippin’ DUCK! HE is not a business man, I am not a duck, NOR am I a bloody MOVIE STAR (granted, an oversight on many people parts)! Now use those opposable thumbs for something USEFUL like opening that can of Fancy Feast. Twit.”

37 eva 06.01.06 at 3:12 pm

Those cats know their human has to sleep sometime…

38 Kc 06.01.06 at 3:33 pm

their ears are freakishly small for cats that size/age.

39 English Chick 06.01.06 at 3:34 pm

The eyes, The eyes!!!
The cats now OWN me.
I…..will……obey

40 mariser 06.01.06 at 3:39 pm

Kc,

“their ears are freakishly small for cats that size/age”
and the eyes ridiculously large. that’s what makes Scottish Folds such an interesting-looking breed.
NOTE: sometimes the earls are folded, sometimes not; regardless, there is always a small ear-to-head ratio.

41 Nathan 06.01.06 at 3:41 pm

Dude, that last one looks like it’s straight out of the Simpsons. These are not happy cats. Why, oh why? If we keep doing things like this to our pets, they are going to turn on us. You just wait.

42 Kate 06.01.06 at 3:58 pm

Yes, I can just imagine: cats taking over the world; torturing every human possible. XD

43 alice 06.01.06 at 4:17 pm

Aww Bunbun and buns are all nice and cool on the hardwood floor. And he’s totally trying to slide himself over to the water – “ehn!” A perfect summer picture!

44 alice 06.01.06 at 4:18 pm

oops wrong post for wrong pic!

45 Aubrey 06.01.06 at 4:32 pm

Good God. The cat in picture three looks like he’s been put into a pink pillory.

46 Driver B 06.01.06 at 4:49 pm

A coworker sent me to CatPrin a couple of years ago. . .the Engrish is almost more enjoyable than the kitties!

47 jaypo 06.01.06 at 4:58 pm

These are Botox cats.

48 abbynormal 06.01.06 at 4:58 pm

I would so not want to be owned by that last one. He looks like he is ready to kill someone.

49 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 06.01.06 at 5:03 pm

My gels would have your hand slashed and be out of the cat flap in two seconds. I think this demeans the cats. As someone once said a cat is a wild animal that chooses to live with you.Having said that, Scotish folds are weired looking like some sort of soft toy, so that these clothes don’t look that out of place.

50 karen 06.01.06 at 5:17 pm

it’s one thing to dress your kitties up when you’re a little kid, it’s just plain odd to do it as an adult!

51 alice 06.01.06 at 5:18 pm

wow, CO *is* moving up in the world – we’ve got W. Bush commenting ;)

52 alice 06.01.06 at 5:18 pm

Or would that be moving down – your choice :D

53 English Chick 06.01.06 at 5:46 pm

Ive just realised that this is yet another eference to cats and dogs.
Like when the maids are dressing mr Tinkles up in different outfits!?

classic <3

54 English Chick 06.01.06 at 5:47 pm

Of course i mean ‘reference’

55 Kris, in New England 06.01.06 at 5:55 pm

This is just. plain. wrong.

56 jenni joon 06.01.06 at 6:15 pm

Dammit! I have a HUGE deadline here at work & have been staying away from C.O. for TWO days now people. Yes.. it’s true. I finally cave and what appears before me?! I am greated with a borage of posts SO freakin’ hilarious that I have to close my office door. OBVY ’twas sheer folly to purposefully avoid C.O.(musta hit my head or something).

Thank you, C.O.! I feel as if I could tackle that nasty ol’ deadline now….Bring it!!

:)

57 alice 06.01.06 at 7:11 pm

jenni joon – That happens to me, too, whenever I stay away for a few days. I get so bombarded with cuteness that I can’t process – my head explodes!

58 kitty 06.01.06 at 7:49 pm

eeeeeeee. adorably bored kittens.

59 fawn lust 06.01.06 at 8:23 pm

oh, these are the greatest.

60 --MC 06.01.06 at 8:45 pm

“Dress her up! Cheer or yell!”

61 Nater 06.01.06 at 8:45 pm

They have the classic cat reaction: “Whatevs.”

62 JH 06.01.06 at 9:54 pm

Those cats are plotting something so evil that it gives me the shakes.

63 Mel 06.01.06 at 10:11 pm

Oh dear Lord! That’s just SICK.

64 jenni joon 06.01.06 at 10:23 pm

Alice – I feels yer pain.. (shaking my head in disbelief over myself). It’s gotten to the point where I now remind myself of what’s-her-name from ‘American Pie’- the line is “And *one* time, at band camp…” Except NOW? I’m all like “And one time, on cuteoverload.com…”!

The way I look at it? My “vice” could be a LOT worse, right?! LOL…

65 petgirl 06.01.06 at 10:44 pm

CATTOWN! that is frickin hilarious.

thats made my day! thanks EL.

heres the link again for those who havent seen it…

66 E. Collison 06.01.06 at 11:53 pm

Cat Prin rocks – in the best Japanese “kawaii” way.

Here are the general instructions:

“1. Dress her up. Cheer or yell, do whatever you like to enjoy the moment with your family.

2. After you are enough with your joy, take a photo! Take some poses and leave her some cute photos!

3. Remove her clothes and give her a hub, say “Thank you!” “

67 E. Collison 06.02.06 at 12:03 am

Cat prin person on pic #1:

“Look at her profile! It’s sort of blockhead but so cute!”

On pic #2: “The least that handsome boy needs. A black shirt with a red tie. Essential anywhere and anytime, office(!?) and party.”

Pic #3:

“The most popular fashion of CAT PRIN!” (So there, you nay-sayers!)

68 Cheryl 06.02.06 at 12:20 am

And that’s what’s goin’ down in Cat Tooooooowwwwwn!

69 moonablaze 06.02.06 at 12:21 am

what nobody’s got the link to the relevant something positive strip? fine, I’ll do it:

http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp05312003.shtml

70 Aubrey 06.02.06 at 12:28 am

OK, beyond the fact that these are some pretty cheesed off kitties, that’s a tie a Mafia hitman wouldn’t wear.

71 alice 06.02.06 at 12:41 am

E.C., the third kitty’s collar is the least absurd of the costumes – so at least I’m glad people are getting that one as opposed to the redonk “blockhead” (huh?) hat for the first one!

72 E. Collison 06.02.06 at 1:04 am

Alice, check the Cat Prin page for the *rest* of the cosutme…

73 shadow 06.02.06 at 1:16 am

Talking about well-dressed cats, has anyone seen the most-fashionable Gigolo Kitty?
http://www.gigolokitty.com

And his supremely absurd hats!
http://gigolokitty.blogspot.com/2006/05/me-maligned.html

74 The Guy Over There 06.02.06 at 2:00 am

Bwa ha ha! The first one is the mascot for Gall Force!

His special power is the ability to fly into your face and scratch you face off for laughing. I’m toast.

75 Meg 06.02.06 at 3:31 am

CAT TOWN! Now appearing in the ‘MORE MORE MORE!” section of this site. AWESOME find…
XO,
Meg

76 Bioflux 06.02.06 at 4:02 am

I guess once again we’re “Getting Our Asses Handed To Us By The Japansese”! Those are great. But I think the website that they came from loses something in the translation.

From Catprin:
“CATPRIN, a tailor for cats. Ever imagined dressing up your lovely cat into a fabulous beauty? You don’t have to dress her everyday, in fact she might not feel comfortable with a dress on for days. Just dress her up only on special occasions like her birthday, takes a photo and that should leave you lots of memories and fantasies. “

Uuuuummmm . . yeah. Dress up that kitty in a dress, oooh yeah, that should leave you lots of memories and, dare I say, fan-ta-sies. Who’s a fabulous beauty? Yes you are! Cause it’s your birth-daaaayyy.

Look how serious those cats are. They know they gotta work hard and stay in school. And wear their little outfits. HEHEHE

77 Kmann 06.02.06 at 6:19 am

My favorite Engrish other than the blockhead quote: “Wow! Kind of scary! Am I?
Cute cat becomes gorgeous and wild leopard! A single shawl acts as a foppish muffler as well.”

Heeheehee!

78 pendlerpiken 06.02.06 at 8:14 am

nonono.
this is just scary.

79 TwoShedsJackson 06.02.06 at 11:46 am

Yuck – I’m gonna chunder. Sorry – but I really think sometimes the Japenese go way too far. I so hope those cats scratch and bite ALOT. Man – they look pissed off kitties!

80 Theo 06.02.06 at 6:58 pm

2SJ – not Japanese; it’s Cat Town.

Found this definition of redonkulous on spatch.net (Cat Town’s site) in the “extras” section. It’s an MP3 and… well, just listen:
http://www.spatch.net/cattown/cattown-reachedfortheham.mp3

81 Aubrey 06.03.06 at 12:33 am

Forget it, TwoSheds Jake-son. It’s Cat Town.

82 cosmiquemuffin 06.03.06 at 5:03 pm

In real life these kits would be totally NYYYYYYRRRRHEEEE!ing.

83 June 06.04.06 at 3:31 pm

it looks like it was raped then put in really bad clothes

84 Theo 06.04.06 at 3:33 pm

Really nice, June.
