CatScan.com was teh ORSUM! Truly the first cat-devoted website back in the days when the interweb was a parched desert of cookie-cutter corporate sites and free-roaming 404s. The creator, CliffyB, split his time between moderating scanned cats and writing Unreal Tournament (true). I loved that site almost as much as I loved Kama-Sooty, which was a truly eye-opneing experience. The web is a poorer and colder place today for their absence.
Sorta like a tanning bed, but instead of turning orunj like a cast member of Jersey Shore, you run the risk of your body ending up covered in binary code.
Alert, all C-O readers who want a Men-Of-Cute-Overload calendar!
while our dear CO-ers may be dragging their feet on a Mr. February (Jamin) or a Mr. October (lion cub guy), San Fransisco’s SPCA and something called the Milo Foundation have put out a 2011 Hot Guys and Baby Animals calendar – yowza
just miiiiight be an acceptable substitute until Mr. June (Hummingbird-Rescuer) gets published.
Ahem. Thank you.
(now back to your regularly scheduled broadcast)
The Management has determined that the term “wistful” has NOT been being used frequently enough. Henceforth. please be prepared to add this item into your daily reports
As Jack from Will & Grace would say, “oh…my….ga!” I soooo want one of these calendars!!! Wish they would show a preview of the actual calendar and not just one pic, but hey, I’ll take the chance and order one!!!
I’ve always said that Animal Planet/SCPA missed an opportunity when they didn’t put out a calendar of hunky animal cops with cute animals. Who can resist a hunky cowboy cradling a wet kitten pulled out of a drain?
OMG, did you see the third one? Not only is that a gorgeous guy (who looks very familar, does anyone know who he is?), but his puppy looks totally like a lion cub! My favorite is the guy getting slurped by the huskie and totally losing it .
Hon Glad, I much prefer the pics where the guys have their tops on, because they are concentrating on their animals, not their own (admittedly very buff) bods. I love the one getting his ears licked by the husky and the one where he’s gone all squishy because he’s got a marmie on his shoulder.
LOL! I used to have a side table made of some kind of transparent plastic and my 36 pound* cat at the time appropriately called Fatso would flop on his belly covering the whole table. He looked like he was hovering in mid air!
* don’t nuff he was under vet care and had a glandular problem
Clutches pearls…What an unseemly picture, no modesty tail deployment, think of the children! gasp swoon, lays on chaise longue “Beulah! my smelling salts”.
THIS is why my email is kittytoes@someplace.innernets : ) i am imagining the look on the kittys face: you knew i was adorable from the top side, why should it be any different from below?
The shelter where I volunteer has an overhead Lucite walkway so we see this sort of thing regularly! It was built for us by a wonderful local builder who tested it with our fattest cats to make sure it was safe.
Well aren’t you the lucky one?! I always wanted to build a walkway for my fuzzies, but just never had the money or talent… What an awesome thing you have there, Teughcats!
I went and looked at the pics, looks like a great shelter and so clean! Actually I began to wonder if the pics were doctored, it didn’t look real it was so clean!
Then I spotted one photo with a mess on the floor.
Yep photos are real LOL!
*shifty eyes* I can take care of that! Whisks kitty away for medically necessary [for human] preapproved [9 out of 10 cuteologists agree] procedures such as snorgling and huffing
Oh thanks alissa, it was a brave thing you did to volunteer for this procedure and I’m sure the patient will face a speedy recovery! it can be so hard to find people willing to donate snorgles!
I’m with Hon Glad; privacy tail training seems to be needed here. Therefore, I will make sure this kitteh gets it right away (said with wide, unblinking, non-shifty eyes)
I miss that catscan site, too. Some of them were really artistic. No cats were harmed (one of the rules was that you had to protect their eyes). Sorry that it went off into dead web land.
Naughty Kitty. Tell them to stop trying to photocopy their rears. Oh well, at least this time it stood up. Cute toepads i guess. or beans as you call em
Adorable!
Squishky toebeans!!!!
It’s a plethora of pink toebeans!!! *swoon*
Takes me back to the old days of Cat-scan.org!
I remember that site!! It got a lot of nuffing nastygrams, as I recall.
Did that have photos exclusively of cats on glass tables? If not I wish that there were one.

Cats on scanning beds, Kar. The effect can be much the same.
what’s a scanning bed? A computer-y photocopier?
Sorta like a tanning bed, but instead of turning orunj like a cast member of Jersey Shore, you run the risk of your body ending up covered in binary code.
Since most cats react badly to pat downs, the TSA just sends them all through the scanner.
Don’t know why, but this makes me want to make a stop at the Snickering Lounge.
I’ll join you.
You’ll be in good company. I think we may get VIP treatment for frequent flyer miles.
Is that next to the ROFL Lounge, TrixandSam?
It looks just like my cat. Except she has one black toebean to coordinate with the pink ones!
Comment Jack!:

Thank you for your cooperation.
That is all.
FTW!!!– “Full of Wist”!
Well it will explain all the “THUNKS”, TrixandSam, as every female that sees that website will do seeing all those hunks with cute baby animals
As Jack from Will & Grace would say, “oh…my….ga!” I soooo want one of these calendars!!! Wish they would show a preview of the actual calendar and not just one pic, but hey, I’ll take the chance and order one!!!
if you wait, the picture fades into the next picture… and the next… double & triple yowza!
best thing EVAR–thanks so much for the link
I am a huge fan of Mister Bunny Snorgler. Reminds me of my husband (and my bunny).
MEE TOOOOOO! big tuff guy with teensy bunneh. heh heh! *swoon*
I’ve always said that Animal Planet/SCPA missed an opportunity when they didn’t put out a calendar of hunky animal cops with cute animals. Who can resist a hunky cowboy cradling a wet kitten pulled out of a drain?
*spends the rest of the day dreaming about men in uniforms and fuzzy critters*
I´m with you StormCat.
Except that Jim and Max aren’t with the Houston ASPCA anymore.
(I haven’t watched it lately. They may have a whole new crew of hunks by now, for all I know.)
And failing that, the Phoenix SPCA had several acceptably hunky alternatives. :swoon:
can i just get on the automatic yearly subscription list for this calendar? love my CO calendar, but THIS IS THE BEST IDEA!
Yay! I KNEW someone was going to scoop us! I KNEW eet!!! Oh well. Thanks, Tracylee!
OMG, did you see the third one? Not only is that a gorgeous guy (who looks very familar, does anyone know who he is?), but his puppy looks totally like a lion cub! My favorite is the guy getting slurped by the huskie and totally losing it
.
Thanks but no, since 99.397% of the cuteness in the Men of CO is the *ACT* of kindness photographed, not cute ACTORS.
That being huffed: I call dibsies on the ear-licked-by-husky guy!
I know this calendar isn’t aimed at me – I’m a bloke – but it seems to show, what it puports not to i.e. posed geezers with their shirts off.
Hon Glad, I much prefer the pics where the guys have their tops on, because they are concentrating on their animals, not their own (admittedly very buff) bods. I love the one getting his ears licked by the husky and the one where he’s gone all squishy because he’s got a marmie on his shoulder.
My dear Hon, this calendar benefits the *San Francisco* SPCA. Ergo, it is aimed directly at blokes, or else at everybody regardless of body parts.
*We all break into a rousing chorus of “YMCA”*
*Arms up in the air!*
That would make a great poster… that I would put on the ceiling above my bed.
Cholmondeley – Is this because they like their vices versa.
Toebean beauty shot… *headdesk*
Is it bad that I peeked??? Is it worse that I want to peek again?!
Pink paw pads! Squee!
makes me wish i had a glass coffee table… and a living room big enough for a coffee table…
*decides that ceejoe probably lives in Manhattan or thereabouts*
ummmm… no. Nothing that cultural. Just a small house in a small midwestern town…
LOL…I have one and YES, I have peeked. Makes me smile everytime!!!
GD – I can picture you laying on the floor under the glass coffee table, and THAT makes me smile.
omg… i really can’t stop staring!!!! <3 paw paws
LOL! I used to have a side table made of some kind of transparent plastic and my 36 pound* cat at the time appropriately called Fatso would flop on his belly covering the whole table. He looked like he was hovering in mid air!
* don’t nuff he was under vet care and had a glandular problem
Poor Fatso! But that is ok…just more to snuggle and love! No nuffing here!
Clutches pearls…What an unseemly picture, no modesty tail deployment, think of the children! gasp swoon, lays on chaise longue “Beulah! my smelling salts”.
*Running with smelling salts*
HON GLAD WEARS A STRAND OF PEARLS???????
teeheehee!
Of course doesn’t everybody? Mine have matching earrings, natch.
I might interject that mine are not expensive. I go to gem shows.
We could go wild with this one!!!
What a cool and interesting photo! I, too, would buy the poster.
Well All I can say is… PEEK-A-BOO!
Jazz hands.
THIS is why my email is kittytoes@someplace.innernets : ) i am imagining the look on the kittys face: you knew i was adorable from the top side, why should it be any different from below?
Da feetz!
so……”Jazz FEET”?????

It is an awesome shelter! Go to http://www.crashslanding.org and check out the pix of Big Sid’s Sanctuary.
I went and looked at the pics, looks like a great shelter and so clean! Actually I began to wonder if the pics were doctored, it didn’t look real it was so clean!
Then I spotted one photo with a mess on the floor.
Yep photos are real LOL!
Oh, how absolutely nifty!
All the white floof in this photo made me think of crinoline petticoats.
I wish I had been there, on the day he “tested it with [its/ their] fattest cats”!!!
Sounds like an interesting day!!!
those toe beans can’t be any pinker.
Tsk, tsk, where is the NSFW warning????
(I can’t wait to do this with my kitteh!!!!!)
We got the cat scan results and I’m afraid it’s worse than we thought. We’ll have to do a catadectomy, Stat!
2600 has us all trained, now, huh?
*shifty eyes* I can take care of that! Whisks kitty away for medically necessary [for human] preapproved [9 out of 10 cuteologists agree] procedures such as snorgling and huffing
Oh thanks alissa, it was a brave thing you did to volunteer for this procedure and I’m sure the patient will face a speedy recovery! it can be so hard to find people willing to donate snorgles!
how is the kitteh clinging to my compooter screen like that??
There’s just one detail unresolved here peeps. The Megster has entitled this “Kitteh Upskirt” .
SKIRT? WHAT skirt??
Signed,
Occ. slightly mischevious
Well, Noelegy did say:
“All the white floof in this photo made me think of crinoline petticoats.”
And here I thought they all wore kittenpants, until they grow up and graduate to cataloons.
OMG Privacy fluff!!!!
Methinks I like this Jaime H. Times two.

Kitty porn.

That is all.
OMG…..the toebeans!!!!! I must have the toebeans!
Smooshed beans.
I miss that catscan site, too. Some of them were really artistic. No cats were harmed (one of the rules was that you had to protect their eyes). Sorry that it went off into dead web land.
Those cutest of toe beans kill me!
Naughty Kitty. Tell them to stop trying to photocopy their rears. Oh well, at least this time it stood up. Cute toepads i guess. or beans as you call em
So cute…and no modesty tail needed….it all fades to darkness.
privacy floof
looks like some kitty got a little too much egg-nog at the company christmas party and went a little furbles-gone-wild on the xerox machine.
tells you what kind of company it is when she gets promoted every year…
haw!
Like when Murphy Brown faxed her chest to the west coast.
i loved that show! I have not watched a tv show regularly since that one went off the air… the same year as Northern Exposure, I believe.
Hey! Those look exactly like my Francesco’s feets and belly! Who kidnapped him and scanned him while I was at work?
remember that night they stayed at my house? heh heh…
and skippy thought YOU were doing a favor for HER!!!!
Ohhhhhhhh………….
*pats skippymom
reassuringly, on the shoulders….*
