I can't believe I'm writing about cat art.

Ahhh. Cat art. It can either be charming and well done, or completely repulsive. As a kid, I definitely had tastes that leaned heavily toward the latter - my room was sponge painted pink and topped off with kitten wallpaper border, and my walls were adorned with cut-outs from old cat calendars. I wore a sweatshirt with a fluffy white persian cat that had a glued-on gemstone tear falling from its eye. Why was it even crying? Maybe from the lace trimmed denim leggings and slouch socks that I wore with it? That'd be my guess.

So the big question I wrestled with this evening: does any good cat art exist? Cat art that doesn't make me feel like pushing down my socks and popping in a Paula Abdul cassette? Cat art that I'd actually be cool with hanging up in my home?
