Catstacked: Mocha
Catstacker: Marilyn
Whatstacked: underwear
This morning we an unusual stack from cat Mocha! I think owner Marilyn’s explanation sums up this effort rather nicely: “Here is my 17 year old cat Mocha, stacked with underwear while I was folding laundry (yes, they’re clean). She is sitting up, a position rarely seen when being stacked. You can see her housemate Tux (a former catstackathlete poster) sitting in the background, eyes gleaming at this amazing feat.” Maybe Tux is able to transmit some sort of stacking super ability with his eyeballs? Thanks all!
Catstacked: Jeff
Catstackers: Vince and Jon
Whatstacked: bad words
Today’s NSFW catstack pays homage to a NSFW Reggie Watts’ song! It looks like a heavy load for cat Jeff, but as you can see he’s just hanging out as if all that profanity wasn’t actually on his head, but in fact added with a computer. Nice work Vince, Jon, and Jeff!
Catstacked: Pharaoh Bastet Bald-win XXVII esq.
Catstacker: Lindsay
Whatstacked: Stuffed Dolphin
Don’t let his lack of hair fool you, Pharaoh Bastet Bald-win XXVII esq. can stack with the best of them! Here he has balanced a stuffed dolphin and a wine cork, which we can assume has a deep symbolic meaning. Pharaoh Bastet Bald-win XXVII esq. (I love copy and pasting that repeatedly) was stacked by owner Lindsay who reports that he was the “hardest cat to stack ever!” But all that hard work really paid off! Thanks Pharaoh Bastet Bald-win XXVII esq and Lindsay!
Catstacked: Momma
Catstacker: Lindsay
Whatstacked: Cellphone, stuff
Momma comes to us from Texas where she is (was?) the house cat at the International Exotic Animal Sanctuary. When she’s not keeping her bigger cousins in line, Momma practices a bit o’ catstackery. Maybe the lions and tigers will follow her example? Probably not, but at least Momma can bumfoozle them with her skills! Thanks Lindsay and Momma!
Catstacked: Tux
Catstacker: Adam
Whatstacked: mail, ear muffs, a ruler, a granola bar, ribbon, necklace, easter egg, fish food, and a sand dollar
Today we have a shot of cat 5-month-old Tux reclining in stacking bliss as he stacks an assortment of objects from the comfort of his kitty bed. Aided by human assistant Adam, Tux has completed his stack with the ease and grace of a much older catstackathelete. Who needs a junk drawer when you’ve got a cat capable of stacking this much stuff! As an added bonus, here’s a picture of Tux stacking catbuddy Buster. Nice work Tux, Buster and Adam!
Catstacked: Rory
Catstacker: Hannah
Whatstacked: All sorts of stuff
Today for your pleasure and enjoyment, we have kitty Rory, who has been stacked with a pile of household items. “I have trimuphed,” Rory seems to say, “over all this here stuff.” He certainly does make it look easy, that much is certain! Though Rory’s entry was a surprise on the pro catstacking circuit, he does seem to be in it to win it. Thanks Rory!
Catstacked: Boomer
Catstacker: Andy
Whatstacked: Lego minifigs
Boomer is a bit out of practice, but he is determined to restore his proper place on the stacking throne! For this picture he wanted to stack more things than any cat has ever attempted. So he chose Lego minifigures. It was hard not to bite and attack them, but then, he is out of practice. The number of objects Boomer has stacked may be a new record – unfortunately they were never counted so we’ll never know for sure…
Catstacked: Cali
Catstacker: Christine
Whatstacked: charging cord, lotion, knife
Sometimes that first full-fledged leap into the world of Catstackery can be a little alarming. It looks like it was for Cali, but as you can see she suppressed her fears for long enough to produce an excellent catstack. Says owner Christine, “Giving her a knife was probably not the wisest decision, especially judging by the look on her face. Luckily, it all turned out well in the end! Thanks Christine and Cali!
Catstacked: Smudge
Catstacker: Joan
Whatstacked: dog toys and stuffed mouse
This morning we have a fantabulous stack by Smudge and owner Joan! I could discuss the technicattities of this stack for hours, but instead, I’m going to copy and paste Joan’s excellent description of Smudge’s effort!
“Smudge is not an inherently stackable cat. So we had to approach her with a fair amount of caution. Or, more accurately, fear and dread. My astrologist friend Marian, however, was able to patiently cajole Smudge into being somewhat humiliated so I could take a pic of her in this compromising position, stacked with four dog toys and her favorite hand-felted purple mouse.”
Thanks Smudge and Joan!
Catstacked: Spooky
Catstacker: Ronda
Whatstacked: A whole pile of stuff
When I saw this picture, I have to admit it: I pumped my fist. Cat Spooky has created a stacking smorgasbord with an assortment of household items! Spooky (and owner Ronda, of course) have turned these once blase phones, combs, and lighters in catstacking art! As Ronda writes, they “always prefer quantity when it comes to the intricate sport of cat stacking.” Well done, both of you, and way to usher in 2013 on a high note!
