Your friend just discovered the internet, and is archiving his way through all the early 21st century memes to reach our sub-culture. He will discover so many god-damn cats.

[–]wiliestcubbs 3 points4 points ago

it's a manx kitten, born completely tailless and quite fearless.

[–]lem0nade 2 points3 points ago

For the record: there are two other recognized tailless breeds (American Bobtail/Japanese Bobtail) and mutations that cause it arise fairly frequently.

Wow. That pretty much sums up my emotions here, 2000 up votes?? I had no idea this was going to happen! I also never knew it was lol-catted either, I literally posted this for fun, maybe get a couple of up votes, make someone go aww etc. Thanks so much to everyone that voted/commented, I could die happy now... XD

So my friend sent me this picture, thought I might get a lot of Karma for it.

Most young kittens respond like this ("hands up!") to anything that surprises them if they're on their back. They stop doing it at about 8 weeks. The kitty in the picture is only about 4 weeks or so.

In a totally unscientific way, I'd guess they do it because the big hand or whatever coming toward them is scary and they haven't learned who is trustworthy yet...

i have a year old manx that still responds like that. he's a big damn cat too, don't know what he's got to be too afraid of.

Downvote Lolcats and the Internet will downvote you back. It's like Newton's Third Law but with kitties.
