Bonsoir, messieurs et dames. Today's study in madness offers an unsettling portrait of a mind in distress. This cat isn't here for you to stroke patronizingly and babble cutesy gibberish at. This pet is nobody's pet. It may not even be a cat at all. Halftoned photorealism crashes into primitive cartooning, and the offspring stares through two pairs of eyes. Why does it exist? Why do you?

This shirt was designed by: French illustrator Nicolas Marcon, aka Monsieur Pimpant. His work runs the gamut from disturbing whimsy to whimsical disturbance.

Wear this shirt to: distinguish yourself from those other cat people. You know, the ones with Garfield strips on their refrigerators and "Hang In There" posters, the type of gushy cat-lovers who romanticize the base natural instincts of this predatory animal. You're totally different from those dorks.

Don't wear this shirt to: a furry party, unless you're there to get in on the fun.

This shirt tells the world: "Inside every bipedal cat, there's a crudely drawn man with glasses trying to get out."

We call this color: The Long, Dark Cranberry Of The Soul.
