    Nice cartoons but captions hmmm. Anyone remember Fritz the cat?

  3. zeldapie says:

    Wow, what a talent!
    Yeah, Fritz the Cat! I remember. Erm, wasn’t that an X-rated movie?
    I like Krazy Kat, too.

  4. luvinmalssomuch says:

    Yeah I remember Fritz the Cat too. Top Cat, oh that’s a cartoon not a strip.

  5. metsakins says:

    Is Fritz the cat the one that threw the brick?

  6. Glenn Peters says:

    Iz Ape *Lad*, aktually.

    They feature a lot of Go, too!

    I was just organizing my Laugh-Out-Loud Cats originals last night. Hope to get photos soon.

  7. Lamentus says:

    Is it just me or do the captions make no sense whatsoever?

  8. jen says:

    wow, that is really funny and cool stuff.

  9. velociraptor says:

    OMG, “PRAWNS” on the magazine title … :D

  10. liz says:

  12. DKN says:

    LOL! It was only a matter of time…

  13. marie says:

    I dunno about Fritz (will google), but these cats here remind me of Hobbes the cat, from “Calvin and Hobbes”! Agree?

  14. Shannon Johnson says:

    cute.

  15. Darcie says:

    uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    I dont get it.

  16. Martin says:

    “these cats here remind me of Hobbes the cat, from “Calvin and Hobbes”! Agree?”

    Yes, and also Snoopy the cat, from Peanuts.

    if you don’t get the jokes, visit:

    You may STILL not get it, but at least you’ll know what it is you don’t get.

    (Personally, I can’t make up my mind whether I don’t find LOLcats funny because they’re too sophisticatedly meta for my taste, or too dumb.)

  18. Marmy says:

    “LOL! It was only a matter of time…”

    Actually, these cartoons are from the early 1900s.

  19. HeidStar says:

  20. Sweet Pea says:

    Eh…not so funny.
    Not even a mild chuckle.

    Now let’s try to forget this and move on to some cute stuff!

  21. Pooja says:

    cute illustrations! if you don’t already, you should really illustrate a comic strip in the newspaper or something. you’re very talented :)

  22. mydragon says:

    While I do think some of the LOLcats stuff is cute, i’ve been noticing kinda a sad trend. Some of the photos are getting out of hand. Some look like they are borderline abusive. I know some are cute… but putting your cat in your toilet is not, putting your cat in your blender is also not. I’m a bit worried where all of this is going to end up going.

  23. cant bleev u guyz dont get thees says:

    IM N UR COMENTZ, REPREZENTN LOLCATS. KTHXBAI!

  24. Brak_Silverbone says:

    Ahh, old-school cartoons (or at least the look of old-school)! Love ‘em!

  25. DKN says:

    Good to know, Marmy. i thought they looked pretty old school.

  26. lurkertype says:

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats.

    Hubby and I have been reading them since he started. Combining the old-timey drawing style with the latest internet memes, and clever puns, PLUS cute cats… what’s not to love?

    Run over to Ape Lad’s, read them all, commission your own (he does other animals in addition to cats), and buy the merchandise. I proudly own a t-shirt.

    KITTEH AND PIP 4-EVER!

    (not related in any way to ApeLad or LOLCats, just love ‘em too moische.)

  27. lurkertype says:

    and check #158:

    “Invisible everything?”
    “No, is Kansas.”

  28. genevieve says:

    If you read the comments on the Ape Man site, I’m pretty sure these weren’t actually drawn in the early 1900s – seems pretty obviously a spoof. A beautifully drawn and very humorous spoof!

    Yes, very reminiscent of Krazy Kat. Not Fritz the Cat, though ;)

  29. DumBunny says:

    Have you all forgotten Felix the Cat? Am I that old?

  30. AmyH says:

    What a fantastic find! I heart creativity and cleverness.

  31. mariser says:

    LurkerT, I saw

    “Invisible everything?”
    “No, is Kansas.”

    and thought of RedZilla immediately. too good

  32. Annie says:

    And so Icanhazcheeseburger is born. Too funny.

  33. Fred says:

    Annie!! Do you know where the troups are???

  34. link says:

    lol cats are a sin. theyre watered down caturday memes.

    like the comics though.

  35. Ponygirl says:

    Meg (and Adam K), thanks for clueing me into the greatest cartoon strip evar!

  36. shannonj says:

    BumBunny, if you’re old, so am I. I love Felix! We’ll sit in the corner together!

  37. Deana says:

    For those of you not getting it, one of the basic LOLcats sites is http://icanhascheezburger.com/

    The artist is taking this kinds of pictures and captions and drawing them as old fashioned cartoons. (I know LOTS of you know this already).

    I think they’re funny.

  38. Deana says:

    Um, make that ‘these’.

  39. CCat says:

    Yay! I saw these way back when they started on a certain other site and have been following them ever since. And now CO has spotted them! I feel so on the cutting edge.

    And as to the “not-cute”-ers… go look at some of the other cartoons! In many of them the Kitteh duo looks very cute.

  40. Shannon says:

    These are adorable. Will check out the strips.

    *ugh* people whining about their memes again. *sigh*

  41. Michelle says:

    Isn’t it amazing how far apart in opinions people can be? Some of you found the Laughing Out Loud cats “not so funny”, and I found them to be some of the most brilliant comics ever. I’d even compare the creator to Watterson or Kelly in wit and artistic talent. I spent a good chunk of my afternoon chuckling, grinning, and cackling my way through the entire set. As an old-time comic afficionado and lolcatz lover, I found them to be the perfect combination of nostalgia and humor. Thanks for posting these, Meg!

  42. Ponygirl says:

    Here here, Michelle

  43. Ape Lad says:

    Thanks a lot everybody! I really appreciate the post and the visits.
    I know my little duo isn’t everybody’s cuppa, but I’m thrilled that some people like them enough to buy and share and post them.
    And if you don’t get ‘em that’s fine. I still have a hard time explaining them to my wife.
    And Michelle– holy cow, thanks.

  44. Subhangi says:

    So. Darned. CUTE. I lof this series.

  45. Subhangi says:

    Damn, I miss sketching. :(

  46. dwine says:

  47. jp says:

    rtflmao!

  48. hey-h says:

    Great stuff, Ape Lad! kthxbai!

  49. Beth E. Dogg says:

    I’m a little irritated, because I sent this submission in too and I wasn’t mentioned. Fine, be that way.

  50. 3rd says:

    Great cartoons! I really like your style.
    For those who don’t get the “prawns” on the magazine, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet#Pr0n

  51. bbb says:

    They’re okay. Not my sort of humor, but they’re not bad.

  52. Em says:

    I wrote you a comment but I deleted it.

    Very, very cute, Ape Lad!

  53. Em says:
  54. poyo says:

    SOOO cute. Looking forward to “Can I Plz Has Dis Shiny Device,” “It’s Dangerous to Go Alone! Take this,” and something involving Serious Cat, Longcat, or Tacgnol (HINT HINT). I love that the little one has an obsessions with leaves.

  55. Theresa says:
