Send Me Your Weirdly Shaped Cat

What's going on

Someone on Japanese social media posted a simple request: "Give me weirdly shaped cats." What followed was a flood of replies — owners rushing to submit photographic evidence that their cats had completely lost the plot when it comes to having a body.

Cats, as a species, seem constitutionally incapable of maintaining a normal shape. Whether melting into furniture, sleeping in positions that suggest no bones exist, or somehow folding themselves into a perfect cube, the cats in this thread are united by one thing: they look deeply, deeply wrong. And also incredible.

That’s basically a perfect Shoryuken pose… (the Shoryuken is the iconic uppercut move from the Street Fighter series, executed with an upward-leaping fist)

My cat’s bizarre pose — turns out it was mid-grooming.

우리집 고양이 기묘한 포즈 私の家の猫の奇妙なポーズの事実はグルーミング中です

My take

I feel like my sense of what a cat is supposed to look like is starting to break down. Is that normal? Is that a cat?
