And from the “Where Are They Now” file: Internet trendsetter Happycat has revealed that he is hooked on grass. The cheeseburger-craving feline, credited with touching off the LOLcat craze, made the revelation on a recent episode of “Oprah.”

LOL @ yr cat Purry, Shellie A.

Gateway drug.
Byootimus Happy-kitteh!
I believe that is for medical use….
Rachael is right, it is a gateway drug to catnip.
LOL, I thought kitty looked like the cheezburger cat too. For a moment, I thought he was going vegetarian on me.
[Funny you should mention... there may be a caption to this effect in the 2011 calendar.

looks like somebody’s starting off the year with the right resolutions. Go salad!
Better get him enrolled in a 12 Fresh Step® program. The cat world is littered with herbal addicts who failed to nip their addiction in the bud.
How much did Oprah pay the kitteeeee for the appearance on her show???
And did the kittteeee jump up/down on Oprah’s couch, a la Tom Cruise
“I’m in love I’m in love I’m in love!!!!”"
(ok, Tom. chill.
Really.)
(rolling eyes)
That’s what happens when you don’t get your cat into Box-Hab
@260Oakley: Brilliant – as usual.

Such an adorable little grey nose!
They tried to make me go to rehab, but I said, Nom, Nom, Nom!
Good Morning, everypeep!
260Oakley and Hila-you are up early and just tooooo clever!
To think, I grow this stuff in my back yard-just as well I don’t have a cat! Every so often one comes through the yard and Killer has a conniption! I really didn’t know I was an enabler…
That must be a British Shorthair. We got one exactly like him before Christmas and he is the cutest, most loveable thing in the Universe.
Nothing like a little nip before nap time!
After too many Cheezburgers… it is time to diet!
Awww it’s a little British Shorthair, I love them! We got a little black tortie British Shorthair before Christmas and she’s currently sitting on my lap snoring like a jet engine. Not purring. Snoring.
I don’t haz a problem. I can kick thees anytime I want to!
Of course he’s happy.
British Shorthair! Mine snores too. Really loudly.
Yeah, internet fame is enough to drive anybody to substance abuse. It’s still not a good thing, but he’s lucky he’s only hooked on grass…
Look. When I asked for grass, I meant, you know Grass, not this stuff; It’s not like I need to hoik up a hairball or anything.
[Sorry, can't help ya. Might try Snoop Dogg. - Ed.]
The original happycat actually died last year :C
Well I am afraid, once again, I am in ignorance here. While I am familiar with the cheezburger phenom I have never heard of Happycat. Is/was happycat the original lol cat?
[Probably not, but Pope Happycat is the I Can Has Cheezburger icon. I was there, Gandalf. Three thousand years ago. I was there when the strength of man... failed - Ed.]
Long live teh Happycat! Cheezburgers fur every1
I see he prefers the ‘yanngg yanngg’ ingestion method, as opposed to the snorfle, the nom, or the vaporizer.
Technique is everything, is it not?
AHHHHH my baby cat made it onto cute overload!!!!!
yes he is a british shorthair, because i fell in love with the original happy/cheezburger cat and could not live without one!!!!
he was playing hide and seek with me tonight, he is seriously the best cat a person could ask for. and SO PLUSH!!!
more purry http://www.flickr.com/photos/31176607@N02/sets/ here on my flickr, i haven’t updated it for a couple months but i’m keeping it fairly updated.
SO EXCITED!
Thanks for sharing Purry with us Shellie. Who knows – he probably IS Prof Happycat’s reincarnation!
And vurry vurry Qte in his own right.
@Shellie
Your kitty is so CUTE
What is his name?
His name is Purry. Pulled that straight from South Park: Terrence and Phillip’s pets were Barky and Purry. I plan on getting a French Bulldog and naming him Barky someday.
