Be warned that "rave cat" from the first link is downright seizurogenic. posted by availablelight at 7:30 AM on January 10, 2009
Pretty good, but no lolcat history is complete without some mention of this man. Oh to be young and in love in that early renaissance of flash animation. posted by es_de_bah at 7:55 AM on January 10, 2009 [1 favorite]
Coral Cache link to I can has history -- because the server appears to be being hammered (metafiltered?) and with 164 inline images, I am not surprised posted by nielm at 8:50 AM on January 10, 2009
rabbitsnake, thanks for the info about the hacked webpage. I've notified the mods to either delete the link or perhaps replace it with the google cache for "Scottish Fold cats are big in Japan".
Jessamyn just deleted the link. *waves towards Vermont from NYC with smiles and thanks posted by nickyskye at 10:15 AM on January 10, 2009
Oh the Whelk, thanks for the major oxytocin rushes at that Scottish fold site. *bliss sigh
That kitty is totally, way adorable. The teensie schnozz sticking out from under the sheets, awww.
Will somebody please just have one look at the Maru and her music box vid? posted by nickyskye at 10:21 AM on January 10, 2009

Ok, nicky, I watched the music box video and I have DIED of cute. My zombie corpse is writing this comment just to express how cute that really was. posted by grapefruitmoon at 11:16 AM on January 10, 2009 [2 favorites]

omg, such great additions to the thread. Awesome, both Kronos_to_Earth and netbros. Just love that Flickr set, such great LOLisms.
netbros, you know you could have had a caturday fpp all your own with musical cats. That cat shredder vid is hilarious * with anticipation-cringing of a string twang-snap
His expression is so funny as his ears perk up, listening to the sounds. So interesting. Amazing to see Nora the cat playing a duet, really listening to the music. Soo interesting. Incredible that cats like that bottom smacking, bongo drum thing.
But you're naughty including that bass cat vid. Very naughty. posted by nickyskye at 1:57 PM on January 10, 2009
Awww, Maru! My girlfriend and I were watching him yesterday. He's always there to make a good day even better... and on ungood days, he may be the only thing that keeps her from kicking my shiftless butt to the curb.

A quote came back to mind a little while ago. LOLcat speak has been known about for quite some time:
"Ignorant people think it's the noise which fighting cats make that is so aggravating, but it ain't so; it's the sickening grammar they use." - Mark Twain posted by Kronos_to_Earth at 3:22 PM on January 10, 2009 [2 favorites]
Fowl & fake on "Nature abhors a vacuum". No cat can so calmly be in the same room as a running vacuum. And if they did, why film it? I kept waiting for vacuum to get hold of the cat. No, really. I love cats. posted by Goofyy at 5:10 AM on January 11, 2009
