Turn Your Cat into a Vegetable with These Wacky Japanese Hats

Cat people, are you looking for a new way to humiliate your kitty? Look no further than these vegetable hats from Japan. These are guaranteed to annoy your cat and make them hate you forever.

The cat hats come in six ridiculous styles, including corn, carrot, white radish, onion, tomato, and eggplant. So if you’ve got more than one cat, you can fix yourself a plate of hostile looking mixed veggies. Mr. Noodles is so going to scratch your eyeballs out in the middle of the night for this.


The cat hats sell for ¥300 each (about $2.80 USD), and can be found in those toy capsule machines in Japan – or you can order a pack of 50 for about $100 if you want to hand out a bunch to your cat-loving friends.

Super Mario Cat Bros.

Nintendo recently revealed that it’s giving Hollywood another chance to get Super Mario right with a full-length animated feature from Illumination Entertainment. It’s gotta be better than that first movie right? The bar is definitely set very low. But if you ask me, there’s only one way to go for a Super Mario movie. Cats! Duh! Something like this new fan film that captures the fun of the original Super Mario Bros. game and adds a kitty. Specifically, it stars a cat as Mario.

There’s no creature better suited to climbing, jumping, wedging itself into pipes, and getting hard to reach coins. Super Mario Cat Bros. was directed by Russian filmmaker Mike “Mr.TVCow” Tivikoff; who co-stars in the video as Luigi. Luigi is a human, so not sure how they are brothers. Luigi quickly follows Mario on his quest to save Princess Peach. The pair face all of the usual obstacles of the Mushroom Kingdom.

It is the cutest thing ever to see a cat performing all of the jumps, entering warp pipes, throwing fireballs and more. This is a very well done video and now I want to see more of their adventures.

Now Your Cat Can Sleep in a Giant Fruit Tart

Cats and desserts have one thing in common – and no, I don’t mean that time you found a hairball in your pudding. They can both be pretty sweet. Now you can celebrate this connection with this whimsical pet bed that looks just like a giant fruit tart.

Kitty will cuddle up alongside an oversize kiwi, strawberry, orange slice, and a couple of jumbo blueberries, surrounded by in a warm layer of pastry as he or she naps away the day, dreaming of catnip treats and chasing feathers.

This clever pet bed comes from Japanese specialty shop Felissimo. It measures in at 40 cm (~15.75″) across, so it’s big enough for a small dog too.

If you speak Japanese, you can probably order one directly from Felissimo for ¥6,580 (~$60 USD), or if you don’t want the hassle, the guys at Japan Trend Shop can take care of it for you, but you’re looking at a substantially higher price of $122 from them. I guess it’s no big deal if you’re one of those folks who pampers your pet at any price.

Google Photos can pick your pet out of a furry lineup

Google Photos has long been adept at recognizing animals in a generic sense. But let's be honest: the real reason you're digging through photos is to find shots of your specific pets when they were little balls of fur. Accordingly, Google has made...
