I love the one slightly out of focus photo I posted last night where Jacoby is gazing off into the middle distance, plotting something…but what?
This is the best I could come up with:
However, if you can think of a better LOLcat caption, please, by all means, give it a try!
Yesterday, I Can Has Cheezburger featured an LOLcat with an Aby wearing a suit, drinking coffee and reading the morning paper, which in turn came from a post over the weekend on The Daily What.
Well, of course that’s an Abyssinian. But here’s the thing: in the comments, people said, “Hey, that’s from a Björk video!” And I said, “What, what? There’s a music video that stars an Abyssinian dressed up in clothes? OMG, must see NOW!” And I went over to our good friend YouTube to see this masterpiece.
Oh. My.
Well. Let me quote from Wikipedia: In the video, Björk tired of her husband, played by a housecat, storms out of the house for a night out on the town. She goes to a pub where she drinks and hangs out with some friends. Then, she goes to the restrooms and the song stops, and the locals (including Dokaka) start beatboxing and making noises. When Björk is back, she joins the crew for a special performance of the song recorded for the video with samples from the ‘Audition mix’ of the song. They go out of the pub and Björk runs through the town drunk, falling over at one point (according to the ‘Making Of’ segment included on the DVD, the fall was staged with a stunt double). Later, she wakes up on a road with scratches and bruises all over her body. She gets up and continues to sing the song, with hearts coming from her mouth. The cat-husband sees the hearts from his house and finds out Björk’s location. He picks her up in his car and they go home. At home, the two share a kiss and dance as the song ends.
And, as it turns out, the leading cat’s name is Muri, and he has his own MySpace page! He’s also quite a celebrity in Iceland.
Even better…on Björk’s website, you can download a “behind the scenes” documentary of the making of the video! It only has a little bit involving Muri, but it’s still really interesting.
But, I have to say…this video came out in 2005! How did I not know about this until now?
I Can Has Cheezburger featured an Aby in one of their LOLcats this morning:
The look on this Aby’s face is wonderful.
Speaking of other people’s Abys, I Can Has Cheezburger featured a ruddy Aby doing what Abys do best: playing!
Yesterday, I Can Has Cheezburger featured the following LOLcat:
It’s kind of hard to tell, but I’m pretty certain that this is a young Abyssinian, probably a fawn or a red. What do you think?
I was pleasantly surprised to see this lovely blue Abyssinian on I Can Has Cheezburger yesterday:
Of course, he’s yawning, not yelling, but still…
Jacoby has been working on his celebrity impersonations lately.
This is his impression of Sparkle being peeved at her roommates.
“Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, you’ve been great! I’ll be here all week! Remember to tip your waiter!”
One of this week’s LOLMart Shirts of the Week really did make me LOL…
It’s an Abyssinian with antlers!
This is what I spent most of the day working on. Sometimes, when you get an idea in your head, you can’t rest until it made real.
Since, you know, Jacoby actually does wear a hoodie…
Jacoby is almost two years old, but sometimes he still looks like such a kitten.
Not the best photo, because i was lucky to get it at all. It really reminds me of a certain LOLcat, though.
I have to admit, the latest Hipster Kitty LOLcat actually did make me laugh out loud:
This morning there were two Abyssinian photos featured on I Can Has Cheezburger!
First, Ceiling Cat as an Aby…how much does this cat look like Jake? Right down to the smug, self-satisfied smile!

Then, a row of Aby kittens, taken by none other than the immortal Peter Hasselbom…

This series of photos seriously cracks me up.
My husband tries to stop Jacoby from licking his temporarily unbandaged foot.
“Come on, Jake…let’s go over here and sit on the sofa.”
And…whoops! Up, up and away!
Imagine my delight when I saw this little cutie on I Can Has Cheezburger today…
I’m convinced that I Can Has Cheezburger is trying to kill me. It was bad enough when they posted that painfully cute little Aby kitten last week…they went and did it again this week!
The fact that it may well even be the same Aby kitten as before doesn’t mitigate the fact that they are not Cute Overload! They need to stop with the lethal levels of adorability!
Sigh…he is a little cutie, though, isn’t he?
In case you weren’t aware, it’s Jacoby’s sacred duty to check on every single thing that happens in the kitchen.
The transformation of bread into toast is especially fascinating.
Although, I have to admit that, watching this, I was reminded of a certain LOLcat…
One of the posts on I Can Has Cheezburger yesterday featured a painfully cute little Aby kitten:
Look at those teeny tiny claws!
Jake has, as usual, been dominating the posts lately…so it’s time for some Angel.
I’m not sure if it’s because there are more sports on TV right now, because the weather’s turning cooler, or if it’s simply because Kylie’s taken over the cat bed under the coffeetable, but Angel’s started spending a lot more time in front of the TV.
Sometimes to hilarious results. This is during my favourite scene in Bolt. I guess she likes that handsome Rex!
