Cosmic Cat Tattoo

This is Thomas’s tattoo of his cat Megan, that recently passed away.
He had her for 15 years, and she was one of the most important things to him in his life. She died on Christmas, which is why she has a little Christmas light bulb as her tag. He got it done at The Studio in Newton, North Carolina, by Margret Moose. (source)

2011-12-11T13:00:00.000-07:00

2011 was a great year for Internet Memes. Here is a list of my favorite internet memes for this past year. Since I usually blog about cats, I'll begin my list with cat memes.

Nyan Cat

Nyan Cat has probably been the most popular Internet Meme this year, and it is still going strong. He showed up incarnated into every nationality possibly, and the fan art has been inspired. Nyan cat was a favorite Halloween costume, and showed up on t-shirts and other apparel.

Larry, the Downing Street Cat
Larry the Cat is the Darling of Dowing Street. He was brought in the house hold as a mouser, but proved to be more interested in being a pampered house cat than a working mouser. Larry makes me miss the days when the U.S. had a first cat, Socks.
