and purrr-st! ;p

6 KiraKira 03.23.07 at 7:16 pm

Wooooo! *eyes follow cats as they spin around* Wheeeee!

The only thing that could POSSIBLY make this better would be if the puppies were simultaneously spinning BACKWARDS.

WHEEEEE!!!!!!

[tiny grumble]

8 Alice Shortcake 03.23.07 at 7:17 pm

Strangely hypnotic – and try walking in a straight line after watching it for a couple of minutes!

9 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:17 pm

and KiraKira — I didn’t want folks fouling their keyboards.

10 One Eyed Daruma 03.23.07 at 7:18 pm

As if I weren’t sleepy enough…only now I feel compelled to bawk like a chicken and hop on one foot.

11 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:19 pm

(Uh-oh… Captain Cryptic strikes again?)

12 Meatcup 03.23.07 at 7:25 pm

Teho control teh magic!

13 llism 03.23.07 at 7:26 pm

Nice Ghostbusters props, Theo! :-)

14 Meatcup 03.23.07 at 7:26 pm

consarnit!

Theo controls….ah, you get it…

*sigh*

15 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:31 pm

…the horizontal, and the vertical? Do not adjust your set?

16 thedistractor 03.23.07 at 7:38 pm

This reminds me of the time I was on prescription pain killers (legally), only cuter.

17 chacha 03.23.07 at 7:42 pm

Teho be crazy. Puppycat spinner be funny. Happy Friday!

18 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:44 pm

At this time I will neither confirm nor deny any rumors concerning my state of bleen posser-thneed monkey hork hork hork eggplant souffle’ whip diddly foofoo hassle castle pie chunks.

19 Helene 03.23.07 at 7:47 pm

Don’t spin me too much or I puke!

20 Aubrey 03.23.07 at 7:50 pm

These kittehs are whirling silently in space…

“Like the cuteness that you’re shown
When you find CuteOverload”

21 ladychroe 03.23.07 at 7:53 pm

ladychroe is unamused.

22 Theo 03.23.07 at 7:59 pm

LadyC — sounds more like a comment for THIS post…

23 Suzanne 03.23.07 at 8:02 pm

I think it’s been said before, but this is SO not the image to look at when you’ve got a migraine.

I’d still like to know why those cats are sniffing each other’s rears though…I thought only dogs did that sort of thing.

24 Mel 03.23.07 at 8:04 pm

MASS HYSTERIA!!!

25 layla42 03.23.07 at 8:06 pm

RCF! Yay!

This reminds me of the spiral umbrella The Penguin would use to hypnotize people. He’d open it and spin it…

and spin it..

uh-oh.

Teho is teh awsum!!11!! He can certainly bleen posser-thneed monkey hork hork hork eggplant souffle’ whip diddly foofoo hassle castle pie chunks.

:: shakes head ::
I hate it when that happens!

26 mctwin 03.23.07 at 8:10 pm

Teho the grate! (I’m sorry, great!!) You are very creative in an idiot-savant-needs-psychiatric-help kind of way! I’m quite envious!!

Good weekend all!!

27 shanchan 03.23.07 at 8:14 pm

Cool Teho! (Psst, pass me the dramamine!)

28 Suda Nim 03.23.07 at 8:14 pm

29 Gillian 03.23.07 at 8:18 pm

It’s a lovely whirling mandala of cuteness.

30 gisbert 03.23.07 at 8:18 pm

seriously. I just ate lunch…

*blarph*

31 AmyH 03.23.07 at 8:22 pm

Yay for RCF! Yay for Teho! Yay for monkey hork horks! Which sounds like what I’m doing after looking at this pic too long! (oh, my head…hork!…)

32 Courtney 03.23.07 at 8:28 pm

Ah ha ha, you’ve outdone yourself, Theo. :)

Although I can’t stare at it too long… makes the bubble tea I just had slosh around in a bad way.

33 Cheryl S 03.23.07 at 8:34 pm

bumble puppies!

34 musicchick2 03.23.07 at 8:35 pm

i’M SO DIZZY, MY HEAD IS SPINNIN’

AND IT’S YOU, THEO, THAT’S MAKIN’ IT SPIN

kudo’s to Tommy Roe 1969

35 commatose 03.23.07 at 8:46 pm

wow. i have a headache. a lot.

36 l 03.23.07 at 8:50 pm

that’s not cute. that’s dizzying.

37 Andrea|Nash 03.23.07 at 8:51 pm

i dunno – maybe it’s because I’ve been dieting for three weeks – but this makes me REALLY want a bagel…wierd,huh?

Theo think what you could do if you used your powers for good!

38 Claire 03.23.07 at 8:51 pm

Tay-o [singsong]….mwah!

39 wolfwhocriedboy 03.23.07 at 8:55 pm

This is what Peyote must be like. ;p

40 CCat 03.23.07 at 8:55 pm

Cats… pups… spinning.. dizzying… I think you could hypnotize someone with this.

Must… obey… cute…

41 greenighs 03.23.07 at 8:57 pm

Mel beat me to “Mass Hysteria!” :D

42 Chuck 03.23.07 at 9:08 pm

ermm….those cats are 69ing each other. that’s a bit more weird than cute.

43 NielsS 03.23.07 at 9:08 pm

boooooh :(
NOT cute

44 Claudia 03.23.07 at 9:13 pm

LOL!! Don’t the Peeps know that ginger helps prevent motion sickeness! Grab a ginger kitteh and start huffing!!

45 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:16 pm

NielsS — duh, it’s filler; we’re waiting on new Meg material.
Had to have SOMETHING in the meantime, though.

46 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:18 pm

and PS to WolfWhoCriedBoy — I never needed the drugs. I *was* the drugs.

47 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:23 pm

EVERYBODY ELSE — in the meantime, while we await Meg Moo, feel free to check out the CatCave’s current resident, Kenya:
http://teho.vox.com/library/posts/tags/kenya+kitty/
There are no kittens yet, but in the comments under the latest update, there’s a pool started as to how many there will be, and when they’ll show up. I’m personally saying five kittens in two weeks (minus one day).

(FYI, me & my Schmoops foster pregnant & nursing shelter kitties, and it’s KITTEN SEASON!)

48 ogma 03.23.07 at 9:24 pm

CAN’T STAND these spinning, moving, breathing, amalgam mish mash of once cute photos. Nauseating. Can’t I just reflect on the cuteness without the so-called enhancements? Sick of over-mediated experiences.

49 newlee 03.23.07 at 9:26 pm

teho, brilliant as usual.

thank you for bestowing upon teh qte community this powerful anti-nuff talisman.

and for those who dislike it? BE GONE!

50 Cranky 03.23.07 at 9:29 pm

Love you, Teho, but that is just EVIL. Nasty spinning headache. Need alcohol to make it stop.

51 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:31 pm

Newlee — oh don’t bother to provoke ‘em; it *is* filler, after all. But, thanks. Hehe.

52 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:32 pm

Hmm, y’know, I have an idea about the animation… will tinker…

53 Lacey's Garden 03.23.07 at 9:39 pm

I need a button I can press to stop the spinning and once I press that button, I can get a cat or a dog to love and snuggle with. -sigh- that would be dreamy

54 Loris 03.23.07 at 9:41 pm

You spin me right round kittens right round like some puppies baby right round round round round.

And so on, and so forth.

55 megsbetter 03.23.07 at 9:44 pm

I’d rather wait until meg came back personally, or better still can’t Meg hire one of the better known members to fill in the space? Not being funny, but theo your stheriously unfunny :( (you try too hard ;) )

56 Theo 03.23.07 at 9:48 pm

What is this word “hire” that you are using?

57 LesbianNeoCon 03.23.07 at 9:51 pm

TRIPPY MAN!!!!

58 doodleb 03.23.07 at 9:57 pm

To the Royal Complainers: you have time and energy to comment on the quality of the photo/animation? why not use all of that to either click through to another site that you like better or to work on your manners?

The suggestion to “…hire one of the better known members” is not RCF behaviour!

59 Tor 03.23.07 at 10:04 pm

Maybe the soundtrack should be the dance remix of Turn! Turn! Turn!?

60 Jenn Jordan 03.23.07 at 10:06 pm

Well I enjoyed it. Hmph.

61 raymi 03.23.07 at 10:09 pm

!!!!!!what in the f**k I NEED WEED!

62 Theresa 03.23.07 at 10:29 pm

One biskit makes you larger
and one treat makes you small,
And the one your master gives you
Don’t do anything at all,
Ask Alice,
When she’s SPINNING aroundandaroundandaround.

Are they really spinning, or am I just tired?

63 woggle-bug.com 03.23.07 at 10:35 pm

Whew. Gonna have a seizure. muh eyeball is twitchin. But in a good way a course! Roundy roundy roundski.

64 Zombie 03.23.07 at 11:02 pm

You spin me right round, baby
Right round like a record, baby
Right round round round
You spin me right round, baby
right round like a record, baby
Right round round round

65 acelightning 03.23.07 at 11:10 pm

As it happens, I *am* on prescription painkillers (mmm, Vicodin!), following some dental unpleasantness. And my very first thought was that you need to have the outer ring of dogs spinning in the opposite direction at the same time…

66 Lauri 03.23.07 at 11:54 pm

Wheeee, it’s the Time Tunnel!

Be very grateful the rings are not spinning in opposite directions or we might all be urping.

Nice work, teho!!!

67 gryt 03.24.07 at 12:02 am

Am I high? ;)

68 Andrea|Nash 03.24.07 at 1:03 am

Oh dear,Theo … I go away to cook dinner, and everyone’s being mean. (How does Meg do this while sipping wine? My typos are outrageous!) Clearly you are using your powers to do good. And I’m awfully glad. Does anyone else have a problem with the comma and apostrophe keys?

69 R. Moore 03.24.07 at 1:34 am

Theo hired? As in pay? Man, what a sweet job you got yourself, Theo! :)

Also, today was decidedly reality casual for me, as I came home from an involved Psych course, got out mum’s old Whirl-o-Graph and made pictures with my sister, who is also in college. Then we stole our (much much younger) brother’s finger paints and some paper, put on old shirts, and finger painted in the backyard. All without making any conscious decision to revert back to childhood.

70 pny 03.24.07 at 2:14 am

Not cute. Give me cute.

71 fatal_fluffy 03.24.07 at 2:34 am
72 Theo 03.24.07 at 2:42 am

Fatal — that… is… that’s really bizarre. I think I need one for my office.

Peeney at AOL — yes sir, right away sir!

73 Suda Nim 03.24.07 at 3:26 am

’scuse me? “one of the better known members”?

Okay, raise hands, folks — who’s better known than Teho?

’nuff said.

(get it? nuff? anyone?)
*cricket sounds*

74 pyrit 03.24.07 at 4:01 am

Spin Theo-ry:
The earth spins faster due to deforestation. Just as a figure skater’s rate of spin increases when the arms are brought in close to the body, the cutting of tall trees causes our planet to spin dangerously fast.

75 DLT 03.24.07 at 4:07 am

friends, the idle brain is the devil’s playground…

76 Kim H. 03.24.07 at 5:25 am

CO has become the addiction of my entire office!

I liked the spinning, but after coming home after Friday Night margaritas, it’s probably safer without.

Good night from the Salem, Oregon CO contingent… and hey! Winter is over! Here’s to the end of winter, and soon to the end of cough and flu season!

77 Robin 03.24.07 at 12:29 pm

Ha! Now I’m going to have Bill Murray’s voice in my head all weekend, “Dogs and cats – LIVING TOGETHER!”

78 jaypo 03.24.07 at 12:46 pm

whhhoooooaaaaa!! me feeling kinda tipsy looking at this! :-D

Like a meowteor speeding through space ready to splody our heads!

79 ElTonio 03.24.07 at 1:15 pm

that was funny Theo HA HA.

80 Carlisa 03.24.07 at 1:20 pm

T—That’s my son (ElTonio) He wanted to let you know he likes these. Getting better and better! What an imagination! Sorry, Meg, but I don’t miss you that much.

*waves to jaypo*

81 Lauri 03.24.07 at 1:39 pm

Meowteor!

Heeee!

82 leah 03.24.07 at 1:45 pm

What a wonderful pic, thank god they are all asleep orr there might be a few upset tummies over there. I don’t know how they got that picture but its wonderfully dizzing.

83 Carlisa 03.24.07 at 2:17 pm

Nice close-up of the planet, URANUS!

84 pyrit 03.24.07 at 2:31 pm

These new whirlygig spinning lawn ornaments will be a must-have for every home-owner this summer! Get yours now.

Carlisa – You are always funny, no buts about it.

85 Carlisa 03.24.07 at 2:47 pm

Awards pyrit with an @$$teroid

86 Lauri 03.24.07 at 3:30 pm

LOL at Carlisa and pyrit.

All I can come up with is

Cirpupference equals purr r squared.

87 Another Angela 03.24.07 at 4:27 pm

Carlisa–you win!

88 little gator 03.24.07 at 7:59 pm

This is *obviously* *photoshopped*!

Someone had to say it.

89 Not That Mike The Other Mike 03.24.07 at 8:05 pm

Brilliant work on this, Etho. By the way, I think that “spinkitties_puppystorm” is the name of one of Frank Zappa’s children.

90 Denita TwoDragons 03.24.07 at 11:19 pm

*SNORT* @ Suda Nim! (despite the return of the earworm…)

*ROFL!* @ Fatal Fluffy!

*LMAO!* @ NTMTOM!!

Ouch, this much laughing hurts! *thud!*

91 Brak_Silverbone 03.24.07 at 11:54 pm

For those of you out there who are MST3K fans: It’s a SOOOOPER FREAK-OUT!

(Apologies if someone’s already made that joke…)

92 warrior two 03.25.07 at 6:16 am

LOL Brak ahahahahahah BWAKA-WAKA-WOW-BWOWOWOWOWAHHH!

Whee!

93 Brie 03.26.07 at 5:38 pm
