Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Bonsai kittens- this is the cruelest thing you can do to a cat. God knows how many die in the process. It's disgusting and appauling.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Before you get too upset (as most of us did when we first saw it) IT IS A HOAX!

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Good. Still, I don't think it's funny at all. Being the rescuer and totally-nuts-over-cats person that I am, I think that whoever thought up this hoax is a sicko. Maybe someone should put THEM in a glass box for a day and see how they like it. We can call it " Bonsai humans " . To me, cats are better than most people. They love me unconditionally and don't give me any crap ( although Mr. Pixel cat likes to play games with me) ;o) Jeanette Re: Bansai Kitten? > > > http://www.bonsaikitten.com/ > > rofl > > -jypsy > > At 05:49 AM 9/7/2003 +0000, you wrote: > >Hi Andy, > > > >What is Bansai Kitten? > > > > > >Camille > > > > > > > > > > >Hi, > > > > > > > >I wonder if it could be done as a view from above and to the side > >of > > > >a person looking through a glass panel?

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Hi, Well I knew what Bonsai is, I used to do it. But Banzai is what the Japanese used to yell when doing the Kamakaze thing, so I figured it was a Bansai kitten doing some kind of karate thing or something... Never knew you could form a cat into a cube that way! :-) If you put an aspie in a cube you'd probably have to give him lots of piercings first. :-) Very Bonsai.

To one of the irrational cat haters out there, I am sure it would have been hilarious. Kind of like a KKK member would think it was funny to do the same thing to black people. Nope, not funny to me.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 someone better hand me a bag of grips I guess.... irrational - maybe cat hater - no cat lover - not one of those either my first instinct in how to reply to " what is a Bansai Kitten? " was to say " Do you know about Google? " from google - where I immediately went for the answer - the link description said: " 4cats a site just for cats! Bansai Kitten The site for kittens+art, or, how to make your own Bansai Kitten! (yes, it's a joke). Cat-Scan This site is funny.. ... " I was set up for a joke and I found it funny never occurred to me someone would take it seriously /me takes a grip from the bag..... -jypsy At 03:44 PM 9/7/2003 -0700, you wrote: >Jeanette wrote: > > > Still, I don't think it's funny at all. > >I didn't see any humor in it at all either.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Of course, the point I was trying to make by reference to this rather dubious joke is that sometimes I have felt rather like a bonsai kitten myself. I once represented that feeling with a dance that consisted mostly of pounding at an imaginary box that surrounded me. (The music I chose to go with this was Orbital's " The Box " , btw).

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Hi, I like cats, my impression, hopefully it is accurate, is that no cats were actually harmed in the production of that website. I certainly hope no cats were harmed. My impression is that it is someone's strange sense of humor in action. I love my little pug dog, if I saw a pug puppy sort of with it's face softly pressed against the bottom of a large jar as the one kitten is, so long as the puppy didn't look distressed, I think I could take it as a joke. I honestly don't think anyone is going to try to form their cat into a cube or cylinder by making it grow in a glass jar.
