2. What happened to the kids and the kitty in this picture?

And how did they ever get a cat to go on an inflatable raft?

I'm thinking very sharp,extended claws on an inflatable?
Hmmm---

3. It a photoshop
a famous one actually. There's a whole website dedicated to showing the pics it came from and how the composite was put together. Wish I still had the link for it. It was funny.

5. I went a-googling for it, but haven't found it yet, BUT
I did find this, which was pretty amusing...




The photoshopping is so obvious that it's not even funny. The picture on the left is the blatant fake. The one with the cat in the raft is the original. It is a Tazmanian Calico Lake Cat and it is hunting from the raft. They will belly-flop on the water to stun a fish and grab it in their claws to pull it to shore. They are excellent swimmers and have been known to even wrestle crocs and gators in water and win. I am really surprized that someone was able to domesticate one of these wild animals. Besides, they are on the endagered species list and impossible to import legally. I wonder if they are being bred domestically. That would be interesting to obtain one.

33. A little farther down the page...
Edited on Wed Dec-20-06 12:52 AM by GoddessOfGuinness
Sorry, but that is not a Tazmanian Calico Lake Cat. The true Tazmanian Calico Lake Cat has a shorter, stubby tail and short whiskers, apparently because long whiskers create too much drag during the TCLC's characteristic hunting dive, and is somewhat smaller than the animal shown. What you have here is probably a hybrid, part TCLC and part domestic shorthair; due to the TCLC's willingness to interbreed with the common house cat, very few pure TCLCs remain. The hybrids have greater size and vigor than the purebreds and have become a serious pest in the Great Lakes region, where a number of TCLCs, imported for use in experimental lamprey control, escaped in 1999 and began breeding with the local feral cat population. Large parts of Lake Michigan cannot be fished due to the danger of cat attack.

This page is the only one that mentions such a creature, so I'm thinking my BS radar is still working ok. :D

25. Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do...
Though I'm passed one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go,
tell my wife I love her very much she knows
