Overview

It began with a handful of digital photographs of office supplies, toys, and spare computer parts thoughtfully placed on Mario Garza's snoozing cat, Love. Over time, the objects became bigger: remote controls, shoes, empty pizza boxes. And then cat owners everywhere were sucked into the Internet phenomenon that is defined by a simple motto: stuff + cats = awesome. From Stuffonmycat.com (the amazingly popular website that redefines hilarious and that was named one of the coolest sites of the year by Yahoo! And GQ magazine) comes Stuff On My Cat: The Book. Culled from the thousands of outrageous photographs submitted by mischievous animal lovers, here are 200 of the most unbelievably entertaining images of cats with all manner of things on them: wigs, Easter eggs, dogs, cheeseburgers, cookware, gummi bears, action figures, tiaras, beer cans, pinecones, a statue of the Buddha, and much more. An introduction by the site's creator explains the Stuff on My Cat philosophy, and playful illustrations and graphics are sprinkled throughout. Just try to keep a straight face.

From Barnes & Noble

Perhaps someday an evolutionary scientist will find an explanation for why humans find cat photos so incredibly adorable, but for the time being, we can only admit that it's true. Stuff on My Cat began as a digital prank: Mario Garza snapped a few pictures of his snoozing cat, Love, with office supplies and toys on her. For unfathomable reasons, everybody who saw them thought that the photos were outrageously funny. Over time, this private feline joke became a world-renowned web site and a major pet lover's obsession. And now it becomes a book. If you doubt that pictures of a cat topped by wigs, gummi bears, and beer cans can be funny, we dare you to take the viewing test.
