'Still on vacation. I'm back to post a few more cat pictures then I'll retreat back to my mint julep and pool.
About cats: the new trend in cat ownership is to have lots of cats, rather than just one. Now, where did that idea come from? Maybe it's the fault of all those reality shows that make maverick pet owners look sympathetic. I'm not sure.
I'm a dog person myself but I have to admit that cats have advantages. If you're going to have huge herds of pets it's better to have multiple cats than multiple dogs. At least cats don't bark at the neighbors.
How do you like these cat book shelves (above)? I think they're great! I don't even have a cat and I want one.
Some of the latest cat furniture (above) looks like human furniture. You could be in a house with cats and never know it.
Where do you think the idea for cat trails came from? Maybe from Dr. Seuss. I can imagine an indoor cat city along the lines of the drawings in his books.
Or maybe the cat trail fad started with Habittrails. Like Sara implied in a comment to the previous post, maybe people began to envy the cool space stations their hamsters lived in.
Where's all this leading? My guess is that we're psyching ourselves into building Habittrails for humans. Isn't that what Disneyland's "Tarzan's Treehouse" is really about? The attraction is leading millions to ask why hamsters should have all the fun.
And the jealousy continues to grow. Look at those cats with their fancy shmansy playgrounds, haha. Those hamsters too; had a hamster once, and I remember always wanting to play in her cage. Looks like I'll have to find a way to a Disney park. C:

ReplyDeleteYou need to watch the pilot for Craig McCracken (Powerpuff girls and Fosters home) new show called Wander Over Yonder:
THE PICNIC
I’m calling it, this is my favorite animated show on TV. As an animator, the quality and fun of the animation is #1 on my criteria and Wander takes the cake.
SO many fun poses and faces, the sundry thick and thin linework and the super cool character designs! Lord Hater is my favorite looking thing. I especially love how creative they have to get with his mouth shapes. Nothing impresses me more than creative lip sync!
If this were the standard for digitally animated cartoons I'd be very happy. Spare the trees but still get some fun cartoonery out there!
Joshua: I agree. That show is fun to watch. Congrats to Craig and David and the rest of the crew!
