For Your LOLCatting Pleasure

I present you with the following raw material:
She was about 25 feet up at the time, incidentally. Why? Why not? Who knows why cats do any of the damn fool things they do. She came down eventually, when she realized it was either she come down on her own power, or let the rising wind knock her out of the tree. Anyway, enjoy putting funny misspelled captions on this. Here’s a LOLCat builder, if you need it.
Update, 8pm: Athena has contributed her own LOLCat.
It reminds me of my first and only cat. When he trapped himself on the top of a 7 meter high tree in a neighbor’s garden for at least 3 hours, crying until the neighbor noticed him and warned us, and then proceeded to come down just in time to spare us a call to the firefighters, we (me and my parents) decided that our life was too messed up already to share it with such a stupid beast and happily gave him away to an old lady.
my first LOLcat. Be gentle:

Excellent, Moioci.
Couldn’t think of one for your cat, but this cute terrier tickled my creative funnybone.

No no wait! I thought of one!

Reason: Bushy-tailed tree-rats are tasty and live up here.
Of course, squirrels, not being fruit, move. My own cuddly little bundle of fluffy evil has not yet figured this out. I figure its one of those kitty zen things. Like when you point at something and the cat looks at your finger.
Speaking of funny cat pictures, a co-worker sent this to me a while back, describing ‘his cube neighbors and their music’.

I’m the ‘bobbing cats’, another guy is ‘Daryll the hip-hop cat’ and a third guy is ‘Techno Tim’…

I’m afraid my version went a little delusional:

“Who knows why cats do any of the damn fool things they do.”
{Raises hand.} Because their brain is the size of a walnut? I know my cat’s CPU provides just enough processing power to 1) eat, 2) find “the box,” and 3) stare at things. But I luvs her all the same.
The other day, one of the Changs reminded us that, supposedly, cats have staff and dogs have owners. More charitably all around: cats have entourages and dogs have teammates. But honestly? Cats have orderlies.
Is this on? ::raps on mic:: Is this thing on?

Reminds me of my cat Conan. He was about 22 pounds of lean Maine Coon and actually got stuck in a tree. He reached over to another branch and managed to get in a position where he did not have the leverage to get either set of claws loose. He hung there for 10 minutes looking like a wet sock before I was able to get a hand under him and lift him up enough to get loose. How he made it to 20 years plus I do not know.
Kaf @ 8 – I like your delusion. Hee!
Here’s mine.
Oh, and twenty years from now, no one will understand why LOLcats caught on. They’ll be the pet rocks of this decade.
heh… its funny to ME….

Twenty years? You’re being oh so charitable. Tick tock.
I don’t know what you all are going on about. LOLCats, like disco or Nehru jackets, will never die.
Do not doubt the shelf life of kitteh pictures with cute & funny captions. LOLcats. Hang in there, baby.
With my special CSI image analysis software I can enhance the image so I can see data that was never saved. This made it so I could see blue bird feathers sticking out of the corner of the suspects mouth. Book em Dano.
Okay…here’s my very first ever LOLCat.

If loving LOLCats is wrong, I don’t want to be right.
Here’s mine
Oh, and John (@19), we can keep the Nehru jackets, but disco MUST die!!
No-one bothered him, as he sat, content in his tree
Say “cheese”.
Hee! Good one, Theophylact. Now, we just need The Official Ghlaghee Fan Club to show up.

Like Journey tunes, just will not die. Will. Not. Die. No matter how much I wish it were otherwise :)
I went a slightly different route: http://mine.icanhascheezburger.com/View.aspx?sumofussesn128443059336875000.jpg
This one only makes sense if you read Hobotopia

Here’s Eric S.’s entry with the URL fixed. :)
A friend’s cat got so thoroughly stuck in a tree they had to rent a cherrypicker to get him down. after about 20 hours. The cat was mad at his owners afterward too.
Glad that wasn’t the case with Gloggy.
Ok, I just got finished reading Ths Ghost Brigades. . .

O Great Scalzi, what a wonderful picture of Glorious She in repose. Contrary to your foolish speculation, She came down because – She felt like it. That is all, and should be sufficient even for the lowbrow Whatever readership.
The Executive Committee of The Official Ghlaghghee Fan Club has examined the various captions and found them wanting.
Here is the last word:

No further attempts need be made.
