Still Life with Kitten
“Oh, Jenny – before you head back to Chicago, look in the laundry room. I picked something up for you at a rummage sale.”
“Ohmigod! What the hell is that?”
“Isn’t it awful?”
“It’s seriously the creepiest thing I’ve ever seen!”
“Do you want it?”
“Of course.”
Still life with kitten.
Silly kitten. Where are you going?
Hey! Get down off of there! I’m not kidding!
Okay, now what are you doing?
Come on. Take that banana off your head and let me take some normal pictures, will you?
Hey Kodo. Meet your new buddy.
Don’t worry, I wiped him off with antibacterial soap.
BFF.
Best $0.50 ever spent.

Not quite as scary as Giant Rabbit Head, but still enough to haunt me for weeks to come…

Do you have a name for it yet? It is absolutely the most beautiful cat I’ve ever seen.
(splooot….cough….yak…)

Urr, that is pretty disturbing. Kind of like what you’d think a cat from the Village of the Damned would look like. Still, for 50 cents…

There must be a LOLcat series in there somewhere…

i love you so much.

Egads…for once, I’m totally speechless.

Kodo is a very brave kitty. What is the message you are trying to send out Jen? Cheap things are creepy?!
September 10th, 2007 at 6:19 am
I’m guessing if you were to show a vid of the 1st meeting ‘twixt Rabbit and Cat where Rabbit stalks and eats Cat (which I’m sure will happen) w/the appro Jaws music Dave will probably up ‘n move to another country that doesn’t actually touch this one.

thb: wow! i hope there’s no permanent damage!
serap: no, the message i’m trying to send out is that a $0.50 gift can entertain me for hours…
michelle: i think that would put dave into a vegetative state, where he just hugged his knees and rocked back and forth all day long.

Between the rabbit head and the kitten, you are gradually turning into the Queen of SlightlyCreepyVille.

You never disappoint.
Ever.

those pictures are hilarious.

That kitten thing is scarier than a clown.
September 10th, 2007 at 10:32 am
I wonder if there was an old, used ball pean hammer at that rummage sale.

sir: oh, we haven’t even scratched the surface yet.![:)](http://www.runjenrun.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
rhonda: well, i think a few kitten/rabbit haters would disagree (ahem… dave), but you have my sincerest thanks!
sizzle: thanks! i was trying so hard to get all three cats in one photo, but it wasn’t meant to be. yet…
churlita: what if i wore the rabbit head, and a clown suit, and held the kitten? the internet would ‘splode!
roy: if you are asking because a) you really need an old ball pean hammer, i’ll ask my mom to keep her eyes peeled. but if you’re implying that b) you would like to smash this kitten with said hammer, then you’re out of luck. it may look ceramic – but it’s made of rubber. WITH DOLLS EYES THAT BLINK!!! everyone should be grateful that i spared them the photos where the one eye is half closed and the other one wide open. ::shivers::

That thing is evil, and its head spins, and I am JEALOUS.
September 10th, 2007 at 1:04 pm
Dear Jenny,
Does its head really turn?
Love,
Vivian

I think Kodo and Podo’s new friend needs a name. I vote for Frodo, since he has a hobbit-y look about him.
September 10th, 2007 at 3:33 pm
Excellent! I love your picture books.
It’s so weird cuz I feel like Pickles is smaller than he is. I guess that’s my brain’s way of blocking out the creepy factor.
September 10th, 2007 at 6:32 pm
tracy lynn: hey! maybe i should name this cat Kaply? Pickles Kaply, the bitter hellcat!
vivian: all the way around, just like the exorcist!
cheryl: funny you mention it, because i was actually thinking that it’s about time kodo and podo get new names. i might have to post another opinion poll.
claire: i just measured him, and he’s 9″ tall x 10″ long x 4″ wide. that’s 360 cubic inches of pure evil.
September 10th, 2007 at 6:39 pm
so, when i cat sit for you next week do i have to watch pickles as well? can’t you take him on your business trip … what if it’s like Chucky and pickles gets all crazy on podo, kodo and me!!!
September 10th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
Hilarious!
September 11th, 2007 at 9:43 am
One eye is not blinking. One eye is winking. Must destroy.
September 11th, 2007 at 4:28 pm
Can’t breathe. Laughing. Too hard.![:)](http://www.runjenrun.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

dee: don’t worry, i’ll make sure pickles is hiding somewhere when you stay over. somewhere you’ll NEVER EXPECT!
robin: thanks! my other cats didn’t totally agree…
roy: you are under its spell!
diane: just slow down. calm, calm. deep breath aaaaand exhale.
