Got a case of the Monday blues? Then head on over to Slittens and turn that frown upside down. No, that’s not a link to a gallery of adorable kittens or baby animals (although checking those out isn’t a bad idea either.) Rather, you’ll find yourself starting at photo after photo of a new breed of animals called slittens. Okay, so they might look freaky at first glance, but they’ll eventually grow on you.
What are slittens?, you might ask. I’ve never heard of them before. Well, they’re basically what you get when kittens and sloths come together–not naturally, of course, but by the wonders of PhotoShop.
They’re creepy, bizarre, and even a little cute. You can check out more pics at Slittens.

Who doesn’t love kittens? I’m no professional web designer, but I’ve tried designing a site or two, and let me just say it involved a lot of hard work. One of the tiring aspects of web design is having to insert placeholders for designs, images, or code that aren’t ready yet.
So to make that aspect of design less of a pain and a bit more fun, Placekitten was born.
It’s essentially an image gallery of sorts that was created with web designers in mind. Using the site, developers, designers, and cat lovers can generate various sizes of cat and kitten images that can be used as placeholders in their designs. Just use the URL below to get started.
http://placekitten.com/width/height
For example, if you want an image that’s 300×200, just type “http://placekitten.com/300/200” into your URL to get your correctly-sized kitty.
Here’s a couple of examples generated by the service:
Awwwwww. Placekitten exists thanks to Mark James.

Cats are cute. Maybe the cutest thing ever. They are even cuter when they are piloting cardboard military vehicles like this one. You can call it the Meow 1 Abrams if you want. Or the Kitty Panzer.
This kitty in his cardboard vehicle of destruction will lay waste to all other cute cat videos and pictures. At least until someone turns the vacuum cleaner on. Then it’s time to didi mao and head for cover under a bed or a couch.
And what you don’t see in the pic is that there’s another kitty hiding in the box, a gunner who shoots hairballs with amazing accuracy as he meows furiously.
(P.S. If you don’t happen to have the cardboard boxes and paper tubes lying around to make one of these for yourself, you can always pick up Suck UK’s version, but it just doesn’t quite have the same charm.)
