Argh, sorry to resub this so many times. =/

"Cat Decoy"

It's summer in Texas and my cats shed like crazy everyday. I've been tempted to make another cat out of the fur.

Everyone needs to vote on this, this is way too cute for my own good.

Re: Cat Decoy

I like the decoy's eyes. Nice subtle touch

I was really worried about those eyes, but they make me laugh every time. =D

Re: Cat Decoy

Hilarious! Really hope this makes it into the top three.

I think they are perfect. Not only do i agree they are funny, but definitely work with the 8 bit theme. In most of my computer games as a kid that would be "normal" lol

Re: Cat Decoy

Haha! I have to say though, my rabbit sheds much more than my cat does.

LOL, imagines your rabbit looking like this:

Re: Cat Decoy

I'm confused by this. I understand brushing your cat may be an everyday task, but who is creating the decoy? And why? Sorry, I'm just having trouble wrapping my head around this one.

Re: Cat Decoy

I do this whenever I trim my doggie. There's always enough fur to make a pretty good size Shih Tzu clone. :D

Funny stuff, Diana!

Oh man! I always think of that idea after I brush my cat! "I could save up this hair and have TWO cats!!" Very cute design

Re: Cat Decoy

I'm not a cat person but looks like shirt woot is. This is a cute concept with just enough weird humor for anyone to appreciate. Nicely done.

Re: Cat Decoy

Haha awesome! They do shed so much, it almost seems possible

You can! Didn't you see this?

Sorry it's confusing. I think that in normal video game logic: you, the player, are the one brushing, collecting the fur, and making the decoy. For what purpose I don't know, many video games had weird items you used to solve certain puzzles.

Maybe you give "decoy cat" to Grandmother while you and regular cat escape on adventures.

Re: Cat Decoy

Speaking as a dude who also has a kitty cat shirt in this derby, I really like that cat. It's cute.

Woops. Sorry, and thanks!

LOL, YES! I usually have enough for at least an extra kitten. I got one of those Furminator brushes awhile ago and I'm always surprised how much fur it takes off.

Re: Cat Decoy

That wayward eye makes all the difference.

I watched a show some years ago about a woman who made yarn from the hair of her dog and made stuff. She said people were so amazed and loved the products and as an owner of a shedding cat & dog all I could think of was how creeped out I would be.

Awww so cute. I would think in the cat's mind, the water in the rabbit's cage tastes so much more special than regular water. Of course my cats sometimes drink from the toilet rather than the neat cat fountain I got them. =/

Re: Cat Decoy

This is so freakin' cute. Love that it's on a green shirt, and as other commenters have said, the wonky eyes absolutely make it. GMV.

Re: Cat Decoy

I have four cats. 'Nuff said. :D The "use incredibly odd objects to solve puzzle" aspect kinda reminds me of the old Monkey Island videogames. Or Minecraft. Both of which are pixel-tastic! Cute and funny shirt <3

Re: Cat Decoy

I think the placement is a little odd, though. I wish the design was a little lower, or else bigger and stacked vertically...so there wouldn't be so much empty green shirt left over.

Yes, yes, yes! I got my Fruminator a couple months ago and it's so awesome -- there's way less fur on the couch, every time I brush the cat, I get big handfuls and start to wonder how long it would take to have enough to knit a sweater. (haha)

And I want this shirt!!!

Holy cow! I was just coming in here to say that!

We had a blue Flemish Giant who gave up enough wool when we brushed her to make two more rabbits!

Re: Cat Decoy

great kitty

Ah, The Great Harvest. We go through this with our dog. So sad it didn't get printed! :-(
