he’s a special little guy isn’t he?

Wonder how long it took him to figure it out.

7 Jorden 11.26.07 at 1:27 am

Oh-the little smile!

8 KoftheW 11.26.07 at 1:47 am

I know a kitten who looks just like that! I miss her.

Gorgeous photography, too!

Kitteh pondering chaos theory and fractals.

Doc Egerton kitteh!

Kitty shower and yet he remains so calm…

12 bugmom 11.26.07 at 4:05 am

Kitteh is about 5 seconds away from throwing his head back ad busting into “Flashdance” What a feeling!

13 RevWaldo 11.26.07 at 4:16 am

I has a strobelight

14 Peg of Tilling 11.26.07 at 4:37 am

Kitty yells “Eureka!” and jumps out of tub.

15 lurkertype 11.26.07 at 4:44 am

widdle smilingk kitten is going to have hours of entertainment thanks to water.

The stream/drip falling off the little pointy ear is splode-worthy.

16 Annie 11.26.07 at 5:19 am

Kitty is pondering gravity and molecular seperation of water droplets for his masters thesis.

17 Subhangi 11.26.07 at 5:42 am

Love that mohawk-in-the-making.

18 acelightning 11.26.07 at 7:25 am

Nifty stop-motion photography on the water drops. And the kitten is cute, too.

19 thepetmuseum 11.26.07 at 12:58 pm

oh! my little Elizabeth kitty adores to study faucet water too. Yay drippy kittens!

20 pyx 11.26.07 at 1:59 pm

I’m siiiinging in the drain!

21 mojojojo 11.26.07 at 3:28 pm

One of our cats LOVES drinking form the faucet, so the other one got jealous of us running tin there to turn it on for him. After extensive analysis and experimentation, HE has learned to turn on the water!

So…which one is smarter? The one who can do for himself, or the one that still gets US to do for him?

22 Diana 11.26.07 at 4:10 pm

I work at MIT and I’d love to have this little guy as a co-worker! Of course, I’d never get anything done, what with all the cuteness and snorgling and all.

23 Theo 11.26.07 at 5:55 pm

I might just be a *leetle* jealous, Diana. IHTFP.

(then again, cats we definitely got)

24 Kiragirl 11.26.07 at 7:04 pm

MIT = Must Investigate Tadrips

25 MMc 11.26.07 at 7:23 pm

What a beautiful pic. Love the inquisitive head tilt. Aww… This makes me feel better.

26 amy j 11.26.07 at 8:43 pm

So cute! I love that soaked face.

My kitty also is fascinated by dripping water. If we make the drip very slow, he twists his neck to stare up into the faucet waiting for the next one (which then startles him when it hits him on the face). He also likes to try to bat drips on the way down. He regularly has a soaking wet head – cold and clammy snorgling! We think he’s a genius (for a kitty…)!

27 willowsmom 11.26.07 at 9:42 pm

Schroedinger’s cat anyone? Anyone?

28 Annie 11.26.07 at 9:53 pm

IT can’t be schroedinger’s cat it would have to be in a closed box.

Or would it? ; )

29 Patricia 11.26.07 at 11:23 pm

No not Schroedinger’s cat that experiment involves poisoned cat food :(

30 Annie 11.26.07 at 11:47 pm

Actually Schroedingers cat is an Imaginary experiment with an imaginary cat in an imaginary steel box and imaginary radioactive material and the supposed imaginary time of death of the cat with out visual evidence.
Kind of like the whole if A tree falls in the woods and nobody is there does it make a sound. It is a mind exercise not a real experiment.

Here is a pretty good explanation of it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schr%C3%B6dinger%27s_cat

IT is actually an interesting mind exercise even without all the quantum physics jargon.

31 Annie 11.26.07 at 11:57 pm

Okay and Meg I am so slow today I just got your star trek reference.

Scotty Rules.

32 Diana 11.27.07 at 2:10 am

I Have to Fling Pineapples
I’ll Have Thesis Finished Presently
and so on. Just so you don’t think I’m completely insane, this is in response to Theo’s IHTFP comment. MIT is definitely an interesting place to work and I’m spreading the word about CO there! If Cuteology ever becomes a major, you guys will get endowed chairs!

33 bleh 11.27.07 at 3:05 am

This picture is utterly amazing! I wish I had the skill with the camera to snap a pic like this!!!

(I also wish I had that kitteh….shhhh…don’t tell the resident felines)

34 snoopysnake 11.27.07 at 3:12 am

Thanks to Diana, IHTFP now can mean

LOVE. IT!

nice action shot!

37 mavethrave 11.27.07 at 12:44 pm

This photo should be entered in a photo contest! It is amazing with the drops so clear.

38 Karen 11.27.07 at 8:13 pm

no need to spread the word about CO single-handedly at MIT, I’m helping too! It keeps me sane :) .

39 Diana 11.28.07 at 12:57 am

It certainly does! I’m over in PoliSci graduate admin. (and then everyone says I didn’t know MIT had a PoliSci department!) Everyone always thinks of ‘that place’ down the road. I think we appreciate the cuteness more though! I had the guinea pig in the dragon costume on my computer for a loong time.
