Cat Ear

Photographers have long been fascinated with the feline form, it’s sleek & perfectly suited as a predator. Domestic cat is an even larger enigma, how is this perfect predator now content to sit on our laps, get fat & purr?

Up Close & Personal

So we wanted to take a closer look at each part that makes up the whole animal. We’ve already featured close ups of their mesmerizing (& sometimes scary) eyes, the strange comb that is their tongue & now it’s time for their pert little ears. Although cute from a distance, their ears take on a life of their own when you take a macro look at them. Thanks to the photographers who had to be pretty close to capture these fantastic shots.

Cat AdAdvertising is all around us every day. And as the electronic age shows us the future, it’s fun to look back at the ads of a simpler time.

Using animals as props in advertising is nothing new and of course cats are a popular choice. They are heavy on personality & capable of evoking emotion in people.

Through The Years

Below is a fun mix of adverts from the 19th & 20th centuries that feature felines. Interestingly enough not a single one of them is for a cat-related product, they are all aimed at people.

Cats have always been entertaining animals. Perhaps that’s why some of our favorite cartoon characters throughout the years have been feline in nature.
