Fashion makes a beeline for the feline?

Posted by: Robert Basler
Tags: Uncategorized

Call it haute catoure. Designers are starting to realize what some of us have known all along, that many folks buy their clothes for the same reason they do everything else: to entertain their cats.

Now, you take this creation from Moscow Fashion Week. Sure, guys may hate it. “Here, just let me cut a hole in my BMW roof so your wacky wig can stick through.” But your cat will go wild.

Note the hairpiece crafted from 400 miles of yarn - a rough estimate - marinated in catnip, with a tantalizing single strand hanging over one shoulder. Check out the dangly earrings and the forehead light reflectors, to mesmerize your kittens for hours.

Of course, maybe something altogether different is going on here, so feel free to offer alternative captions via Post a Comment.

“Why are you standing in front of this underpass?”

“I, like, exceed the height requirements, but like, I can’t turn around and walk home because like, you are not allowed to go that way on the highway.”
