I suck. In the mean time, I came across this cat picture, and I have no idea if its real or fake:

	Upon closer inspection, it has become clear that I have nothing left to say in my signature, so I did this instead.

Those cats are DEFINITELY shopped. Not only have I never seen cat markings remotely like that, but the markings in the photo don't follow the cats' backs down the center, such that they don't even come close to following the spine. In short, the shopper fucked up.

How does snopes have everything except whatever I look for?

I'm not sure how you're confused. Those look so unnatural. Both the pattern & the fact that they don't follow the cats' contortions.

Also, DevilsChaplain, what's up with the pic in your signature?
