Ahhhhh!!!

Jelly Beans attack!!!

3 Kaya 02.20.08 at 8:36 am

There’s absolutely nothing wrong here..I would do the same if I had a glass table and my cat didn’t way 8 kgs…

4 katiebug 02.20.08 at 8:51 am

ok wow, that is amazingly cute. it’s like hovercat or something.

5 Shadowtiger 02.20.08 at 8:56 am

Kitty sez: “Buh?”

6 Dozer 02.20.08 at 9:13 am

In Soviet Russia, cute kittens look at YOU!

7 unci 02.20.08 at 9:15 am

Kittens in space!!

8 Hon Glad 02.20.08 at 9:21 am

Marmalade and jelly beans,yum yum.

9 Aesthetica 02.20.08 at 10:01 am

This reminds me of the now defunct cat-scans.com website. People’d send in photos resulting from their cats sitting on their image scanners (with the kitty naughty bits photoshopped out, of course, so it wasn’t too pervy). I miss that site, that and kittyporn.org were favorites before CO came about.

10 E 02.20.08 at 10:15 am

Oh, this really is cute! If I wasn’t such a klutz, this might make me get a glass-topped table!

11 G. 02.20.08 at 10:31 am

Haha, I tried this once with a guinea pig.
Belly+Feet=Hilarious.

12 Kemp 02.20.08 at 10:37 am

“I’m looking through you, where did you go? I thought I knew you, what did I know?”
Super cute!

13 acelightning 02.20.08 at 10:49 am

This pretty little marmie isn’t nearly as squished as this guy was:

This one’s got pink toesies, and he’s looking back at the one who’s looking at him!

14 kk3 02.20.08 at 11:35 am

A grown woman should not be under the coffee table staring at kittehs

You can get older but stay immature forever (at least that’s my plan)

18 Nicolletta 02.20.08 at 1:04 pm

Kitteh is like: “Mommy, what are you doing down there?”

19 whiskers 02.20.08 at 1:25 pm

no no unci, that should be:

kittehs…IN…SPAAAAAAAACE!

20 Goozak 02.20.08 at 1:25 pm

This is so great! If I even get a kitty or a puppy, I’m getting a glass table at the same time…

21 Goozak 02.20.08 at 1:26 pm

Oops… “If I eveR…”

22 catablob 02.20.08 at 1:33 pm

I think this is why glass coffee tables were invented.
This is just a beautiful photograph of a lovely kitteh.

23 Leilani 02.20.08 at 1:38 pm

I think the kitteh’s foot pads look more like marshmellers!

24 theoneflyinvet 02.20.08 at 1:44 pm

Aesthetica: HAHAHAHA!! i’m going to google those now!

Photo: Ain’t nothin’ wrong with bein’ transfixed by an assault of pink paddy paws. And a fuzzy belly. And whiskers too. :)

25 Szilvia 02.20.08 at 1:45 pm

I think someone should make a coffetable book about kittehs, ontop of glass coffee tables!!

I feel a Kramer moment coming on!

26 Holy Cuteness 02.20.08 at 1:47 pm

Love this picture, I think it’s very artistic…

27 Kate 02.20.08 at 1:48 pm

32 Theresa 02.20.08 at 2:35 pm

I will continue to look at cute beasties from all angles available to me, so there!

33 Ellen 02.20.08 at 2:40 pm

Grown wimminz should be on top of table snorgling kitteh

34 chanpon 02.20.08 at 2:41 pm

Damn it, I need a glass coffee table, STAT! *tries to snorgle kitty thru the glass but bumps head*

35 Momof2kitties 02.20.08 at 2:54 pm

And can someone please explain to me just exactly why a grown woman should NOT be under a coffee table staring at teh kitteh? Is teh qte!

36 Sara 02.20.08 at 3:03 pm

Possibly one of the cutest pictures ever. Must gobble up those toes! Kitty’s expression is priceless.

37 Clare 02.20.08 at 3:13 pm

Perfectest Toebeans Ever.

I think Johanna is a genius for realising the perfect angle for the ultimate toebean shot!

38 maggiesmom 02.20.08 at 3:47 pm

This has got to be one of the most adorable things I have ever seen! Evar!!!

39 jen 02.20.08 at 3:51 pm

40 KarenInToronto 02.20.08 at 4:06 pm

This is Glass Ceiling Cat — prevents hoomans from rising.

41 brinnann 02.20.08 at 4:53 pm

This makes the most awesome desktop! You’ve got to try it. It’s like there’s a kitty standin’ sideways inside my monitor.

I’m in ur monitor, fuxing ur percepshuns.

42 eikoleigh 02.20.08 at 5:27 pm

46 Livia_Augusta 02.20.08 at 5:54 pm

Ceiling Cat?

47 Kallisto 02.20.08 at 6:04 pm

Grown woman (almost 35, PhD and whatever else) and all I can come up with is:

Foots!
Those flat soles just made my day.
I want that table, I’ve got a kitten to put on it.

48 Shay 02.20.08 at 6:17 pm

doesnt it sort of look like she’s about to pounce on your chest??? i lurfs it!!

49 Nathan 02.20.08 at 6:27 pm

Looks more like ninja kitty caught in the middle of a mighty kung-fu kick.

Watch out photographer!

50 jolynn 02.20.08 at 6:54 pm

awww This is my new desktop wallpaper!! Cuuuuute!!!

51 carmen 02.20.08 at 7:02 pm

52 Beth 02.20.08 at 7:09 pm

Pink paddy paws…BWUHAHAHAHA!

Love the white loaf cat shot too!

This baby is all “Why are you down there and how come I’m not sitting on you?” So cute =)

53 Sheila 02.20.08 at 7:20 pm

I want that kitteh!!!!

54 Fegli 02.20.08 at 7:21 pm

What a redonkulous picture of such an adorable kitty! You got me again cute overload.

55 purrculier 02.20.08 at 7:29 pm

To-Do List 1)Buy glass-top coffee table. 2)Find camera. 3)Build time machine. 4)Travel back in time. 5) Kit-nap my furry kids when they’re small enough not shatter table.6)Spend hours taking pictures of their faintly puzzled expressions.*sigh* -envious? who me?

56 Johanna 02.20.08 at 8:00 pm

Brinnan – brilliant suggestion. Kitteh is now my desktop!!

57 rachel 02.20.08 at 8:03 pm

Those pawsies! too cute. my puffers looked just like this when he was a kitten

58 rachel 02.20.08 at 8:03 pm

Those pawsies! too cute. my puffers looked just like this when he was a kitten

59 Snowpea 02.20.08 at 8:39 pm

I love his colouring… makes me think of praline vanilla ice cream! Yum yum.

60 Kats 02.20.08 at 8:56 pm

God, I just want to nibble those little jelly beans!

61 muhj 02.20.08 at 8:59 pm

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Want more like this? Go to http://www.thecatshouse.com and for even more, buy THE CATS’ HOUSE and all the other great titles by Bob Walker and Frances Mooney — cat underpinnings galore!

62 M. 02.20.08 at 9:12 pm

Awww… this should go in the calendar… even though the calendar is finished.

63 Pearl Ostroff 02.20.08 at 9:19 pm

muhj,

I saw an article on this house in Cat Fancy or other cat magazine, years ago. Unforgettable.

If I had a glass coffee table, and put my kitten on it, I’d never get up, assuming I could actually get down there. Arthritic knees. Not good when kitty escapes into the lobby and plays hide and seek among the neighbours bikes.

64 Annie J 02.20.08 at 10:20 pm

I love the paw pads! So adorable! And the angle – unusual but amusing! :)

65 Pie 02.20.08 at 10:58 pm

Love the tiny pink feets and the “iz u lookin at mah belliez?” face! What a cutie!

66 berthaslave 02.20.08 at 11:17 pm

Hey, I’m a grown MAN and I would do this all day, too!

My new desktop, replacing the kittehs in the kleenex box.

67 CCat 02.21.08 at 12:06 am

The paws, people! THE PAWSSSS! Not to mention the little pink nose and big blue “huh?” eyes, and general marmie-ness *dies*

68 sinsi 02.21.08 at 1:52 am

this shot makes awesome wallpaper for the computer!!!

69 snoopysnake 02.21.08 at 2:54 am

I love little orange cats with little white muzzlepouches and big blue eyes and adorable pink noses and pink jellybean paw pads….squeeeee!!!!!!

70 Shannon 02.21.08 at 3:09 am

This has got to be one of my all time fave pics ever on CO. No possible controversy and absolutely NO ONE can argue that is not cute.

On a personal note; TOESIES!!!!!! Pink fluffy jelly bean-y toes!

71 Trish 02.21.08 at 3:43 am

Shannon: Wanna bet?

“Oh, it’s so cruel, making the cat sit on a glass table that’s probably too cold for his feet, and too high so he could fall off and hurt himself, just so you can take a picture and exploit him. People like that shouldn’t even be allowed to have pets!”

Someone can always find something to b*tch about, if they reach far enough.

But in reality, it’s teh qte, 4 sure!

“This makes the most awesome desktop! You’ve got to try it. It’s like there’s a kitty standin’ sideways inside my monitor.

I lol’ed!

73 tenshihi 02.21.08 at 4:20 am

Great for desktop wallpaper, I have this one on my computer at work now. I just need a copy made for a higher resolution. :)

74 mcwood9 02.21.08 at 4:53 am

OMG! I just had to make this the background image on my desktop… and I stretched it so it looks like kitteh is standing on my laptop!! hee hee!! I love it!!

75 Subhangi 02.21.08 at 6:50 am

MARMIE!!!
BELLEH!!
FEETS!
SQUEESHD TOESES!

(Wot do u meen by “grown woman”?)

76 Electra 02.21.08 at 3:19 pm

Faaar out brussel sprout!
That does make a pretty darn impressive desktop background.
You’re not wrong.
I’m spinnin’ on desktop overload here.

77 Kar 02.21.08 at 5:51 pm

His god-like powers increasing daily, Whiskers surveyed the lesser creatures from his heavenly perch.

78 Furbabies 02.21.08 at 9:02 pm

I have this set as my background now. It’s purr-fect. What a beautiful marmie.

79 Meow House 02.21.08 at 9:45 pm

Goodness those are some white beans that kitteh has got.

80 CheshireCat 02.22.08 at 2:30 am

I want a Marmie! :(

81 Theo 02.22.08 at 8:45 pm

and Marmie wants a you! ;)

82 Wendy 02.23.08 at 10:09 pm

I want this as my desktop! But the resolution isn’t big enough. Sigh.

83 Jan 02.24.08 at 12:50 am

I just set it as my wallpaper on my desktop people! It is fantastic! I luuuuuvs it!

84 luvvy 02.24.08 at 10:03 pm

possibly the MOST annoying CO picture ever. Sigh. I now have to ditch antique queen anne coffee table for faux 80s number which is not going to match the rest of the decor just so I can spend all day gazing at the Kitty Chairman’s fluff and comparing it with this most adorable super model…. sigh

85 Meg 03.04.08 at 11:44 am

Wow, this is great! Johanna what camera do you use? Thanks a lot, Meg
