Cat in a jar.

The picture is on a site with some other random cat pictures and does
not look photoshopped to me, but maybe it is. It is a cat that
someone has stuffed in a jar or at least appears to be that and my
instant reaction was to think that wasn't particulary kind to the cat.


It might be from someone who got the idea from bonsai kitten but I
still have problems with someone stuffing a cat into a jar even if it
was just to "be cute" or whatever. Good god, I'll drop it. If you
want to complain to the site owner or not, that's your business. I'm
forgetting about the whole damn thing.


It's a glass, not a jar, and it looks like a damn fine example of
Photoshopping to me.

le asks
It is a cat in a jar. WTF???



Congrats, you are the 400,000,000,000,000th person to ask about the bonsai
kitten/cat in a jar hoax. Some (US) newspapers reported on this in 2003 and
online services such as AOL have also devoted a good portion of reporting to
this hoax. In addition, this has been discussed at length in various cat/feline
related newsgroups for quite some time, now. I suspect that this will go on
'til at least the year 2075..then it will stop for a year and be reintroduced
by a small group of people and go on for another century!
