They stare at me every morning during work.
Those big eyes, tiny noses, and innocent furry faces.
At times I swear I could hear meowing.
I'll often mention not liking the arts-and-crafts store I work at. To add insult to injury, adorning the wall of my workspace is a calendar (NOT picked out by me) of cats.
Even though I was always more of a dog person, I certainly have nothing against felines.....however there's only so many cutesy images I can take.
Cats in a bag, kittens on a pillow, cats sleeping.
It was starting to get on my nerves. So sickeningly sweet!
Having a drawer full of markers at my disposal, I couldn't help myself.
Throughout this past year, month by month, I'd "enhance" each calendar image. It's my one real joy at that job and perhaps it's my way of saying, enough with the cute cats!
Here are some of my favorites.....

French cats!

Strange cats!

Haha - your enhanced version is way better!
Brought a smile to my face. Especially the tattoos!
I love cats, but find all the pictures sickeningly sweet after a while. I love how you've turned this around. Hilarious that you actually bought a cat calendar for 2012. Can't wait to see what you do to this one.
I love that hipster cat has a tribal tattoo. However, he was getting drawn on before it was cool.
Vast improvements!
I see a future in graffiti cats. I think you should market that.
Meow.
That's fun and funny!
I have cats and dogs. They all get along great together, but there is something about the way one of my cats stares at me when I'm sitting at the computer. She will just stare adoringly at me. It definitely makes my heart melt. I look forward to your next cat calendar creations.

You are HYSTERICAL! Tatooed cats! I love cats (have 2 of them) but I hate sickly sweet calendars of any stripe. Happy New Year - may it bring you joy, fun, love, health (and let's throw in prosperity for the heck of it!). xox

Ha ha - Hipster Cat was my favorite. I like the tattoos, especially since my son is a tattoo artist.
