“We’re all motivated by the same urges. Cats have the courage to live by them,” believes “Garfield” cartoonist Jim Davis. Whether sleeping in the sunshine, destroying velvet couches or sh**ting in people’s shoes, cats can certainly teach us to obey nothing beyond our urges. While cats have been ambivalent about humans since the dawn of time, we have revered and reviled them for at least 12,000 years, and most recently brought them unforetold shame with the 2019 theatrical release of “Cats.” For this, we are truly sorry. Ancient Egyptians regarded cats as the embodiment of the goddess Bastet, and killing a cat was an offense punishable by death. Ancient Greeks associated cats with the goddess Hecate and Romans thought of felines as a symbol of liberty.
During the buzz kill that was the Middle Ages and most likely because of their respected position in pre-Christian religions, cats became associated with witchcraft and devil worship which led to the once exalted animals being killed en masse. Cats, as per usual, had the last laugh as their extermination at the hands of religious zealots is thought to have directly affected the proliferation of the Black Plague as less funny hairless cat pictures

Fanciers Association maintains, “Sphynx are truly a rare treasure and should be kept indoors, neutered or spayed and provided with loving and interactive surroundings to maintain a healthy, long and enjoyable life.” Unlike many other cat breeds, the Sphynx is not opposed to a bath, the natural habitat of the melancholic Cancer. The excessive wrinkling in their foreheads gives them a worried/anxiously attached look familiar to any Cancer who has ever loved anything. LEO (July 23 – August 22) Maine Coon

Entertaining, albeit intrusive and gluttonous when it comes to affection, Maine Coons have much in common with the lion pride. Leos by and large tend towards memorable hair and generous spirits, similarly, Maine Coons have magnificent tails that equal their body length and can be wrapped around them for warmth. Just as the Maine Coon requires constant grooming, Leos require daily petting and affirmations of their worth. VIRGO (August 23 – September 22) Siamese cat

On that same travel tip, the Norse goddess Freya was an avowed cat lover and she’s oft depicted riding a chariot being pulled by a pair of Norwegian Forest cats. This breed is naturally waterproof, managing to keep themselves dry in even the most perilous wetness. Similarly, the relentless optimism of the average Sagittarius keeps them smiling in the face of adversity and buoyant amid dire straits. CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19) Munchkin cat

Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the planet of hard lessons and limitations. Enter the Munchkin cat, the short legged, aww inducing breed that’s struggled to find legitimacy. The abbreviated appendages of the Munchkin, the result of a genetic mutation, have made them popular as a pet and problematic as a breed as many pedigree associations refuse to recognize them, including the hilariously named Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF). Undeterred, Pixel the Munchkin and others like her have prevailed, melting hearts and making money through lucrative appearances. Success as revenge for being pictures of cats

a bold style choice. “I feel like I was never supposed to have hair,” she said. “I don’t like having hair. I cannot tell you one time since the beginning of my life that I’ve ever been like, ‘This is cool.’ I just do not like to have hair.” More from Billboard Doja also pointed out that she rarely ever displayed her natural hair in the first place, instead having spent most of her career wearing wigs in different colors. “I remember feeling so f–king exhausted with working out,” she continued, explaining that her wigs often slid around and peeled off her head while training. “I’d be working out, but I couldn’t focus because I was more concerned with how I looked and how my hair was doing.” “I just can’t believe that it took me this long to be like, ‘Shave your f–king head,” she added. “I’m really liking this. What is the use of having hair if you’re not going to f–king wear it out? I don’t even sport it.” Then, the Grammy winner upped the ante by coating her brow with shaving cream and pulling out a razor as around 20,000 other Instagram users looked on. “My.

It is obvious from all the charming details – such as the way the cat scratches on any available fabric surface – that this game was developed by cat people. Indeed, the team were inspired and comforted throughout Stray’s long development by their own cats. “One of the cofounders’ cats, Murtaugh, was the main inspiration for the hero’s visuals,” says Martin-Rage. “He was found on the streets of Montpellier and has been here since the beginning of the project. He was right under our eyes the whole time and has been a constant source of inspiration and support in his own particular way. While the protagonist is not a carbon copy, Murtaugh seems happy with the result.” There were even cats in the office with them – which occasionally meant a rather chaotic working environment. “We have two cats that work with us almost every day in the studio: Jun, who belongs to Clara the level artist, and the hairless sphynx cat Oscar, owned by Miko, the main cat animator,” Swann explains. “They are very lively additions to the team and we love them very much, even when they step on the computer power button just.

“Working for so long on a game, you really lose perspective, so seeing people posting their reactions, and more importantly their cat’s reactions, after playing the game this week has been a very rewarding and surreal experience for the whole team,” says Swann Martin-Rage, producer at the game’s developer BlueTwelve Studio, based in Montpellier, France. Stray has been in the works since 2015. BlueTwelve Studios’ cofounders, Colas Koola and Vivien Mermet-Guyenet, who go by Koola and Viv, were fascinated by Kowloon Walled City, the mysterious, reputedly lawless and sun-staved enclave of Hong Kong that was demolished by 1994. They felt that the verticality, mystery and hidden paths of such a setting would lend themselves well to exploration as a curious feline, and so the concept for the game was born. Stray was finally announced in 2020, after arthouse publisher Annapurna Interactive picked it up.
