Paint Your Cat!

Marine1 · 07-10-2008, 03:25 PM

I received these photos today, from an unknown source? What are your opinions on this subject? (Click on the thumbnail photos of each for a larger view.)

The book these came from, said some of the paint jobs cost $15,000, and had to be repeated every 3 months as the cat's hair grows out.

Must be nice to have $60,000 a year just to keep your cat painted!!

Interesting, I don't particulary like cats, but as long as no harm was done to them OK!

GlockMeister · 07-10-2008, 03:43 PM

I don't know how I feel about it, yet?

SwedeSteve · 07-10-2008, 04:18 PM

Why paint something up like that when you're just gonna eat it any way ??

iflylow74 · 07-10-2008, 04:22 PM

Surely this can't be real?? People actually spend that much on their cats???

Seabeescotty · 07-10-2008, 04:25 PM

They have mmore money than they know what to do with, so, instead of a good cause, let's paint the kitty!

GDawg · 07-10-2008, 04:27 PM

I personally don't like cats. I do own one though cause of my girlfriend. She's destroyed my furniture and my plants. She was in heat the other night and was acting all nice to me before she attacked my ankle and drew blood. She's locked in the bathroom right now.

I have a small animal trap that I bought cause my neighbors cat kept pissing in my convertible. I believe in "catch and release" so I caught her in the Orchards (nice community) in Vegas and released her 25 miles away in a rich community. Don't piss on my leather in my car and you'll be fine by me... Dogs don't do that... they only shit in my yard but that's the owner's fault. I usually just turn on the sprinklers for that behavior.

Where's the one with the target painted on it?

I'll roger that! That kind of $$$$ certainly would feed quite a few hungry kids, and disabled veterans living on the streets, today.

elmer fudd · 07-10-2008, 04:55 PM

LOL poor cats dont look very happy and who would spend there money on something that stupid!?!?!

Don't even get me started on the disabled vets on the streets that are abandoned by our leaders. I served. They served even more to lose so much and get so little once home.

There was a guy in Vegas that used to be on the streets with no legs. I saw his discharge paperwork. Everytime I was in the area I gave him what money I had and cursed our leaders.

It is so sad.

Cyrano · 07-10-2008, 05:08 PM

Yet again. more proof that the wrong people got the money.

If I tried that crap with Booger, I'd be afraid to go to sleep at night. Button on the other hand, don't need no paint to look special.

Mad Hatter · 07-10-2008, 06:30 PM

Looks hokey... god bless if its real and they can afford it.

KGunner · 07-10-2008, 06:46 PM

Cats are stupid, and apparently, so are their owners in this case.

Coeloptera · 07-10-2008, 06:51 PM

And again it falls to Snopes to put paid to silly rumours.

snopes.com: Painted Cats

...and me to deliver the news.

Looks like extremely skillful Pshop style work, though. Frankly, you'd have to sedate many cats to get lines that fine on them. Think how long it takes to do SPFX makeup on humans...a basic airbrushing can take 2-3 hours if everything goes well.

GDAWG, get that female cat fixed and things with be all the better. Also, there's a spray you can get called "Natures Miracle Best Behavior Training Aid" that stops cats or dogs from going near or doing stuff to anything you put it on.

tippmann7 · 07-10-2008, 09:27 PM

i happen to love cats and i dont think i would do that to my cat......he wouldnt be to happy either lol
