Ani writes: "...A brief story for you: One day, Louis hopped up onto my head, being the strange occurrence that it was I had a quick cell phone shot snapped (excuse the overexposure) and posted it to facebook- as any typical teenage girl would. Within the hour, my father posted the photo on the left, which he had just dug up from the archives of my childhood photos, in amazement at the similarity between the two shots. There is about an 11 year time gap between the two, I was unaware of the existance of the photo on the left upon posting the shot on the right. - Ani Wisconsin."

"Hi Chris, I thought it might be cool to do a then & now of my cat Alex, because a picture of him as a tiny kitten in 2008 is already on your site. He will be two years old this June. Gabrielle, 16, California."

Carm is a 53 year-old retired school teacher from NEW YORK. Although she likes to send me pictures of some random guy she found on the internet and claim that he is her "husband", it's plainly evident that she is a crazy cat lady who never married, never had children, and most definitely does not have the singing ability to appear on "Buffalo's Got Talent". All she has are her 32 precious cats, and a digital camera from Costco to keep her company. Everyday she fills my inbox with 20 to 70 pictures of her "babies". Today I received these shots of a particularly tortured looking orange tabby she insisted on naming "Sunny". I'll spare you the more gruesome photographs, but let's just say you wouldn't look so "sunny" either if some lonely lady in clogs greased your cat anus with a dob of Lite Lube, and snapped away as you pinched out a dozen Kinder eggs.
