  2. Rhea says:

    Sorry– I wish Meme well, but I don’t find mashed-face cats attractive.

  3. kimmaroo says:

  4. Digitoonie says:

    I saw this posted on twitter and was like,

    “This can’t be the cutest kitten in the world *clicks on the link* OMG IT ISSSSS! :shock:

  5. Ozbirds says:

    *gasp*

  6. From now on, cuteness will be measure by the Meme scale.

  7. zeldapie says:

    Oh YES! I remember Memebon very well! I kept a bunch of pictures of her because she is clearly the CUTEST KITTEN IN THE WORLD!! (No offense to my three beauties, Nick and Nora and little Nell.) I think if I saw Memebon and Boo together, my head would simply asplode from the cuteness.

    Memebon had possibly the best LOLcat evar other than the not-PMSing lioness:

  9. feezie says:

    …and she totally has a flavr, judging by the paw-nomming.

  10. Denise A. says:

    OMG, the teeny, tiny toys!

  11. PJ says:

    I was perfectly fine until “NOM: Paw.” “NOM: Paw” has killed me.

  12. bob drummond says:

    How can you look at these picture and not smile at them? This has got to be one of the best set kitten shots I’ve ever seen–REALLY!!!

  13. oldtaku says:

    I’m sorry, but so genetically defective you need help to breathe is just one of those ovary things.

  14. Shadyman says:

    Whoa, check out the near-identical-to-momma face!

  15. Teresa says:

    AWW :D What a cutie :D

  16. Tania Morse says:

    Memebon was definitely the cutest kitten in the world. But, when she grew up, her cute/sad face turned into more of a pissed-off one. I prefer to remember these baby photos, of course.

    • Theresa says:

      I love PO’d cat faces.

      • kibblenibble says:

        Then you would have loved my Isabella, Theresa. She had the most beautiful POd face I’ve ever seen. In person, she was astonishingly beautiful. but every time I tried to capture that beauty on film, all I got was a very grumpy little princess. Now she’s gone, but i can still remember how breathtaking she was. :-)

  17. If this doesn’t make you N’AWWWWW :3 then you oughtta check your pulse cos you’re not human!

  18. Andi from NC says:

    For God’s sake, woman!!!! I kept scrolling and scrolling and scrolling and each pic was cuter that the last – I completely exhausted….. but pleased, very pleased…..

  19. SlaveToCat says:

  20. Laurie says:

    Spay, spay, spay!!! *angry face*

  21. freetomato says:

  22. LeeLeo says:

    Meme’s mommy has eyes like Sauron!

    • Fird Birfle says:

      “Meme’s mommy. Meme’s mommy. Meme’s mommy. Meme’s mommy…..”

      *repeat until hypnO-tized*

  23. Shannon says:

    It is cute. ALL kittens are cute! ALL of them. Every single last one of ‘em. But on another note – WHY???!??!?!??!?! WHY must you bathe the kitten!?!?!??!!?!

    • Fird Birfle says:

      oh boy.
      Let the nuffing begin.
      *pulls up lawn chair and prepares a Mint Julep, with sprig*

    • swampdiamonds says:

      I know! Such a tiny baby for a bath.

    • ashagato says:

      jeesh! sometimes they poop on themselves, or jump in a dirty toilet, or they get puked-on by accident, or….. (anyone who’s ever taken care of kittens insert exception-to-the-rule here….)

  24. EL1 says:

    EWWWWWWWWW! Not cute!

  25. Amanda says:

    I thought Memebon was a dude. . . Idk. Maybe I’m wrong. Pretty sure, though.

  26. JoshN. says:

    Wow, memebon is all growed up now.

  27. Angel says:

  30. dmaufer says:

    My heart has exploded

  31. Beth says:

    While I appreciate the cuteness of kittens, I’m not a cat person. But this little guy made my heart grow three sizes AND made my head explode from teh irresistable cuteness!!!! I particularly swooned over the little pathetic mewing mouf and the prosh little paw covering the wee little yawn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  32. I think I’m going to die from a literal cute overload. I love kitties! That guy is so cute.

  33. sunnylessmum says:

    Lethal cute

  34. Kate says:

    In my humble opinion, all kittens I come across become the cutest kittens in the world.

  35. evie says:

  42. Queen of Dork says:

    Uh-oh.

    *Marches with great stompiness onto the ward*

    Crap. *Sets up industrial strength vat of smelling salts and a BIG fan. Tucks ded and fainted peeps into bed with a puppy and a kitten at their heads and hamsters running in wheels next to their beds. Floofs pillows. Freshens the water in the vases of their live flower arrangements. Changes the channel to The Dick Van Dyke Show so everyone will heal by laughing. Adjusts starched nurses hat and squeaks away down the hall*

  43. Queen of Dork says:

    In my attempt to nurse stricken peeps, I’ve found myself flung into the Mod Lounge. I really like the upgrades in here! *looks around* Wow! The pool is great and I love all the hamsters running around in wheels in here! But could somebody please slip me a slice of quiche under the door?

  44. Blimey. I remember those pictures a few years back. Makes me want a new born kitty. Only trouble is they grow up into cats that throw up on my carpet and enjoy scratching me.

    Still… so kawaii!!

  45. Michael says:

    That’s the ugliest cat I’ve seen

  46. Josh Fowler says:

    not as cute as the puppies i photographed the other day ^^

  47. AcidQueen says:

    Awww! I’m not a fan of cats being bred to be peke-faced or stumpy-legged or what have you, but Memebon really is cute in extremis. :)

    *snorgles the bebe*

  48. i would LOVE yo know what breed of cats they are!!! :D this has inspired me TO LOOK FOR ONE AND BUY IT BECAUSE IT IS SO FRIGGEN ADORABLE!!!
