I love lolcats, especially those at the ICanHasCheezburger blog, my favorite addiction.
There’s a storyline that has emerged among the submissions, and wheras my husband loves the “nom” topics, I prefer the epic struggle between “ceiling cat” and “basement cat.” It’s a familiar story that you might recognize from elsewhere.
So, for your Friday amusement, I bring you, my interpretation of the story of Ceiling Cat (with credits going to ICanHasCheezburger for the pictures and captions).
(I admit that I got this one from ICanHasCheezburger’s sister site, IHasAHotDog, for all those strange dog people out there).


















The Ceiling Cat and I are very close. I tell Him everything and He makes me glow and purr. He says He thinks Icanhavecheezeburger is hilarious. And that people who are nice to cats get a better mansion in heaven. Of course.
AL: Tiggie commented on my blog! Tiggie commented on my blog! I feel so special!
Good job. Ceiling cat be praised. xD
AL: Thanks for visiting the site and for the comment. I’m very fond of the ceiling cat character, but I think we should stop short of praising him. He’s not God, and we’ve got to be careful not to create idols as stand-ins for the real God. I’m sure C.S. Lewis fans would have a lot to say on this topic, with Aslan being a Jesus figure but never a replacement. It’s an interesting topic for debate, I’m sure.
This saga is sooooo hilarious!!! And *indignantly* dog people are NOT crazy!!! LOL
AL: hehe. I suppose I should be careful what I say about dog people, since i happen to live with one. =) Thanks for stopping by.
LOL
You can’t just mention the epic and mind-boggling project that is the LOL Bible without linking it…

I found your site when searching for Basement Cat pictures for my web site. I really enjoyed the pictures and also reading your blog. The Betty Crocker cookbook is one of my favorites, too! Thanks for sharing!

AL: Thanks for stopping by Laurie. Betty Crocker was the “old reliable” cookbook in my house growing up. It’s a good standard, as well!
This site is awesome!
Anyone got a cheezeburger?
Actually, the last image is based on Longcat (pictured on the right) and Tacgnol (on the left) and doesn’t accurately describe the epic struggle between Ceiling Cat and Basement Cat.
