Never posted on r/aww before, but that thing is overly cute. Makes my wife/kid/cats look like crap...

[–]TastyMeatPoop 14 points15 points ago

I don't know whether or not to actually downvote you... I know you're a troll, but you told me to downvote you... so...

Brain implosion.

[–]nowxisxforever 2 points3 points ago

Not sure if reverse psychology or serious, amirite?

[–]TastyMeatPoop 3 points4 points ago

I'm thinking that it is. All his comments have "downvote me please" as if he's trying to see how far he can push the envelope until people actually downvote him (i.e. by upvoting him we're still giving him a negative reaction, just in a different way) He's some kind of a... reverse troll.

[–]Circ-Le-Jerk 1 point2 points ago

My God.... He deleted his post and you people are making it sound extremely interesting. God, I hate this.

[–]Xok234 2 points3 points ago

What if we get his posts to 0 points?

[–]nokstar 2 points3 points ago

He wants people to upvote him. If he really wanted downvotes he would be extremely vivid and link very graphic and terrible things.

[–]nowxisxforever 3 points4 points ago

Reverse trolling is still trolling! I agree, though. This is a condundrum for /r/firstworldanarchists!

[–]XenthisX 2 points3 points ago

Judging by his comments he is serious, but not being very effective because his karma is positive. If he wanted negative karma, he shouldn't be asking for it.

[–]w00tZy 1 point2 points ago

What was the comment? Never saw it

[–]XenthisX 1 point2 points ago

Something stupid and then down vote me. His user name had down vote in it as well.

[–]Viend 1 point2 points ago

WHAT DID HE SAY?!

[–]Revxx 6 points7 points ago

So far you're not doing too well.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]sp4ce 7 points8 points ago

I just upvoted all your posts

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]ComedicCounterpart 8 points9 points ago

Maybe this is all reverse psychology to get us to upvote him.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]SexyAbeLincoln 5 points6 points ago

Clearly the answer is to downvote once, to keep his karma at 0.

[–]Revxx 4 points5 points ago

Yea... try to be more troll-y.

[–]RicardoTheGreat 7 points8 points ago

I downvoted you, so as not to crush your dreams

[–]JaminThaGreat 4 points5 points ago

I am starting a campaign to get your karma to zero and keep it there.

[–]astrograph 2 points3 points ago

down votes yo

[–]msoetaert 4 points5 points ago

You are really bad at being bad.

[–]jessicajy 69 points70 points ago

OMG. Give him to me NOW!!

[–]isotope123 26 points27 points ago

He's not fat, he's just a little tabby.

[–]dictino 26 points27 points ago

CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!

[–]Scarlett_fever 37 points38 points ago

I read this as "cuteness overlord". Still works.

[–]neon_overload 3 points4 points ago

People do that with my reddit username a lot.

They call me "overlord"

[–]CheezIt624 20 points21 points ago

I'm not even a cat person, but shit that kitty's cute.

[–]w00tZy 0 points1 point ago

That's what I'm sayin'!!!

[–]BlueEyedJew 17 points18 points ago

Holy shit. I need this right meow.

[–]TheKryce -1 points0 points ago

HOLY MUSICAL B@MAN!

[–]im_an_optimist 15 points16 points ago

This is too much for me

[–]mezdrez 31 points32 points ago

Kiss the belly! Then kiss each perfectly furry little paw.

[–]goldapples 20 points21 points ago

Don't kiss the paws... kittens drop parasites and walk in their own poo.

[–]dafragsta 27 points28 points ago

Thank you, Mr. Killington.

[–]anyalicious 12 points13 points ago

Hasn't killed me yet!

[–]toxoplasmosis_cat 2 points3 points ago

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxoplasmosis

[–]mezdrez 0 points1 point ago

...after wrapping the paws in plastic wrap? What if I boil the entire kitten? Oh well, I'll take my chances.

[–]BezziVelinov 10 points11 points ago

I didnt breath the entire time I stared at this picture.

[–]rawrslagithor 11 points12 points ago

That is the cutest cat I have ever seen in my 19 years of life. Why would 869 people downvote such ethereal preciousness.

[–]Sabird1 1 point2 points ago

Auto downvote bots. look at all the downvotes now. 8000. You really think that 8000 people downvoted this. Look at any post. There are downvote bots that keep posts equal.

[–]awk4ward 23 points24 points ago

Is this what we're calling pudgy these days? It's because of people like you that cat eating disorders have increased 59% in the last five years.

[–]Mikeyone77 9 points10 points ago

80% of statistics are made up on the spot 100% of the time

[–]Sabird1 1 point2 points ago

Kitten anorexia and bulimia are serious problems.

[–]grgathegoose 4 points5 points ago

I believe that kitteh has the worms. You should probably fix that.

[–]Sutanreyu -1 points0 points ago

This is probably the case...

[–]anelida 0 points1 point ago

yup, they all need to be de wormed. Swollen belly is a symptom of parasites in their lil bellies

[–]Terry_Err 2 points3 points ago

I like the cut of that kittens jib.

[–]buttcheeky 2 points3 points ago

It's so cute I almost want to cry

[–]RoxiSmith33 5 points6 points ago

Awwwwww...look at the little Buddha belly! How adorable. :)

[–]keziasblindfold 2 points3 points ago

......... I would sell my soul for that cat. Especially if It would stay like that forever.

[–]qwertyfoobar 2 points3 points ago

they usually cost as much as a human soul

[–]SocietyisODD 5 points6 points ago

So...what do I do now that my heart melted?

[–]micjones10 4 points5 points ago

Just squee'd until my face fell off.

[–]WirtsWoodenLeg 3 points4 points ago

Serious question? I am not a cat person, but if there was a cat that stayed that small and damn ass adorable I would get one for sure. Is there such a cat? One that stays small-ish. I have a fear of obese cats.

[–]anelida 6 points7 points ago

Well, the bad news is cats are not here to please you

[–]diva2015 2 points3 points ago

One tip: make sure the cat isn't part Maine Coon... We got two siblings together and we got so surprised when he basically exploded compared to his sister, he's HUGE while she is just the size of any normal cat.

[–]Sharrakor 5 points6 points ago

No, science is still working on the legendary Eternal Kitten. Until then, just don't overfeed your cat.

I don't know about breeds that are small on average, though. There are probably some.

[–]anelida 0 points1 point ago

They are experimenting on kittens to satisfy some weirdos who do not like adult cats??? There is something very wrong here. It is like saying I want a baby but I do not want him to grow...

[–]Sharrakor -1 points0 points ago

It's a joke. :P

[–]anelida 0 points1 point ago

ah yeah, I always forget that teenage joke are idiotic, hehe

[–]ThatJesterJeff 1 point2 points ago

Yes, they're labeled "Teacup Cats" but be warned for they come with certain issues due to how they're bred.

http://ultimatecat.blogspot.com/2011/07/facts-about-teacup-cats.html

Problems aside, they're probably some of the cutest lil' furballs you'll ever see.

[–]Frostxtq 1 point2 points ago

Once you get a kitty and fall in love with him, you'll love him just as much when he grows up. Just get a cat that doesn't get to more than 4 kilos and watch out so he doesn't get fat, problem solved.

[–]Momo1x1 6 points7 points ago

Can't take it. Manlyness dropping.

[–]toxoplasmosis_cat 3 points4 points ago

..and is gone, you are fabulous!

[–]ZiggyBOP155 1 point2 points ago

I think tabby cats are the coolest looking cats. I love the stripes.

[–]thisisreallyhappenin[S] 2 points3 points ago

I don't understand how over 7k people could downvote this little bb!

[–]PeaceLoveHalo 1 point2 points ago

Probably filled with worms.

[–]shibalover19 6 points7 points ago

MINE!!

[–]stylz168 4 points5 points ago

I wish the awww-gasm I just experienced with this picture was anything like the orgasms I've given girls, my sex life would be in the record books.

[–]CrackItJack 4 points5 points ago

Just off the nipple, it would seem... or is it bottle fed ?

Anyway a good nap is in his very near future methinks.

[–]anelida 0 points1 point ago

yup, not near 8 weeks, I hope you still keep him with mom.

[–]sarahgarcia_93 2 points3 points ago

i want it 0_o come here kitty-kitty

[–]TheMRader 1 point2 points ago

Tiny tubby tabby tummy.

[–]CtrlC_plus_CtrlV 4 points5 points ago

The M on it's forehead reminds me of "Dial M for Monkey!"

[–]95688it 1 point2 points ago

the M is actually a feature of Maine coon cats

[–]Lamar_the_Usurper 12 points13 points ago

Pretty sure all tabbies have it.

[–]CrackItJack 0 points1 point ago

But it is far from an exclusive feature.

[–]killaudio66 -1 points0 points ago

Maybe he's being controlled by Babidi

[–]comfypants 2 points3 points ago

AWW

[–]FlaredNostrils 4 points5 points ago

My love for this kitty made me feel like I was cheating on my own cat.

[–]watchagonnado 2 points3 points ago

look at that fat cat! He's so cute.

[–]FavoriteToy 1 point2 points ago

just wait til baby grows up, will still be just as adorable!

[–]ToucanPlayThisGame 1 point2 points ago

Aaaaaaaaaaaand -- you win the internetz tonight!

[–]lh14 1 point2 points ago

OMG so adorable. make me want to get a cat. But my room is too tiny and I already have a dog :/

[–]Media-Fan 1 point2 points ago

Cutest cat I have ever saw. I wish I had a cat that cute. :(

[–]RubberDuckOfHell 1 point2 points ago

All of my d'awwwwwww belongs to this.

[–]Rysdad 1 point2 points ago

It's good that cat doesn't seem to be afraid of cameras as I see many more photos in her future.

[–]ElliotBoudin 0 points1 point ago

I just got a cute 3 month old tabby and he is so cute. Never get enough of that cuteness!

[–]JayKGS 0 points1 point ago

All I can do is sit and gaze at it. All day. Too cute, what one, now!

[–]notsonerdy 0 points1 point ago

AWEEEEEEEE

[–]smitty010493 0 points1 point ago

just........ awwww, just awwwwwwww. god damn your karma machine is giving you off the roof points

[–]Sarc222 0 points1 point ago

Now this, THIS, is cute. Not some mangy runt that people are so desperate to 'introduce' me to.

[–]SideburnsOfDoom 0 points1 point ago

Excellent pic - that's a good photograph of a cute little cat right there.

Bokeh kitteh _^

[–]Skathington 0 points1 point ago

That Tabby belly so cueht! aww

[–]tatifruitloops 0 points1 point ago

It's so cute I want to cry!

[–]GabyKnows 0 points1 point ago

Very cute!

[–]Charleybucket 0 points1 point ago

That kitten is so cute that it's making me angry!!

[–]Charleybucket 0 points1 point ago

You just raised my tolerance for cuteness to a level that I will never again reach.

[–]wemightbebanana 0 points1 point ago

KILL IT KILL IT ,... with love

[–]saumuribiz 0 points1 point ago

I think my head just exploded!

[–]unholyrage 0 points1 point ago

So far, this is the only post on /r/aww that has made me go "aww"

[–]Jabberminor 0 points1 point ago

That looks like a mackerel tabby belly. Our mackerel tabby looks so cute too!

[–]ImTellingUAboutMyDay 0 points1 point ago

I love kittens... why am I allergic to such cuteness? :(

[–]CatgotDevils 1 point2 points ago

Why is my reaction to want to put that kitty's entire body in my mouth.

[–]brakedust 0 points1 point ago

Sweet Mary and Joseph!

[–]nowxisxforever 0 points1 point ago

Tabbies. TABBIES! I love all the tabby bellies. <3

[–]MystX 0 points1 point ago

IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIE

[–]powprodukt 0 points1 point ago

I think you just won the game of reddit with this picture.

[–]Tisatalks 0 points1 point ago

Those paws :)

[–]ANiceChap 0 points1 point ago

I'm not sure if you have a really good camera, or if that cat has really sharp lines.

[–]jklantern 0 points1 point ago

What is your command, oh Cat of the Adorable Pudge? We await your orders!

[–]tokolos 0 points1 point ago

She's not pudgey. She's BIG-BONED.

[–]tyjohn13 0 points1 point ago

My first r/aww pic now I'm never going to leave

[–]ArborealRob 0 points1 point ago

SO MUCH WANT!!

[–]SnikleFrittz 0 points1 point ago

Adorable! Give me. Now.

[–]melatonia 1 point2 points ago

Isn't a belly on an otherwise well-proportioned animal a sign of worms?

[–]mithi9 0 points1 point ago

Omg awwwwwww

[–]RAnDomBandGirl 0 points1 point ago

The title was enough for an upvote. The picture is a bonus.

[–]Gawayne01 0 points1 point ago

OMG! It's so cute I just exploded!

[–]VladdyPoutine 0 points1 point ago

I can see Frank Zappa's face in that belly. This sensation must be what religious types who see Jesus in a burnt grilled cheese feel.

[–]now_in3D 1 point2 points ago

I've never really been much of a "cat-person" but this... this changes things

[–]EastSide221 -1 points0 points ago

This isn't even fair...

[–]hannahalexia 0 points1 point ago

I love tabby bellies... There's something different about them than any other kitty belly.

[–]crushcrushcrush 0 points1 point ago

as a puppy man, i say who cant love this little pudding pop.

Edit: seriously? who downvotes someone for loving a kitten because he likes puppies? hey asshole. FUCK YOU.

[–]BromanGladihater 0 points1 point ago

Sooo adorable! Looks like my cat when he was a kitten.

[–]romanych -1 points0 points ago

10/10 would huff

[–]alexr09 -1 points0 points ago

I want to hurt all of you.

[–]tocatchamonster -1 points0 points ago

Dat belly. :3

[–]DesertPunked 0 points1 point ago

Your karma machine seems to be working as intended.

[–]Beaker113 0 points1 point ago

Better put it on slim fast. .. Or just snuggle it.

[–]AddHolder 0 points1 point ago

Cuteness OVERLOAD... can't... go... on...

[–]TheKryce -1 points0 points ago

I actually went "Aaaaaaaawwwwwww"

[–]RedditPrincess1996 -5 points-4 points ago

Adorable Buddha kitty has made me feel like Oprah, you get an upvote! And you get an upvote! Everyone here gets an upvote!

[–]ChristianIsMyName -3 points-2 points ago
