Maybe not quite best of the web, but I'm bookmarking this page at work for when I need a "mental health minute."

My girlfriend has been using this as a comfort blanket for 3 weeks.
It's kind of like crack too.

I've infected many people with this page this week. It's hypnotic. Just can't stop clicking. One more kitten!

Am I reading too much or have you just told us you haven't been performing your "boyfriendal duties" in the last 3 weeks?

You should really put a WIRC warning on this (Warning, inarticulate rendering cuteness ahead). Awwww, wookit the wittle kittens, me-ew.

Complete cute overload. lovelovelovelovelove it!

I find I keep going more for the kittens that look like my own cat. Or the ones with cute props. You can't beat a kitten with a cute prop.

Teh cuteness is just too much.

I'll bet dollars to donut holes that some people have ran out & bought overly-cute kittens just to get 'em on this page. It's a scandal I tells ya...

It's interesting that the votes are so often so close.

The losingest kittens tend to be Devon Rexes (as I expected, actually).

Omg the sweetness! The sweeeeetness!

The ears are a little batlike. Then again, all cats look something like that when they have big-kitty ears and little-kitty bodies.

Crack, indeed.

I'm sorry; I just can't let this stand. It's not a yeti: it's a wampa. A wampa, dammit!

Answer: all of them

Puppy war. Mmm.

I can't help it, I keep on having to draw the contests, they're ALL the cutest. Even the ugly ones, even ugly kitties need love to, and are cute in their own beautiful way. My fiancee and I both love ratemykitten.com, she'll love this too.

Inspired by MiltonRandKalman, I put in a kitten for MetaFilter.

Website would be better if the washed-out pictures only went head-to-head with other washed-out pictures, or in other words, apples with apples. Am i wrong? Because people be givin props to kats wit megapixels comin out dey tails and none to da cellphone shots.

...And if you got one animal looking away from the camera going head to head with one giving googley eyes, WELL OF COURSE the google wins...
