Plate armor for Algernon (http://jeffdeboer.com/Galleries/CatsandMice/tabid/77/moduleid/433/viewkey/photo/photoid/120/Default.aspx?).

Anyone willing to try this on their kitty?

That's awesome.  I have two cats and my male likes to playfully beat the crap out of my female at least once a day.  Armor may turn the tides!

I don't think a cat is strong enough to support some of that armor

PS I think we killled the server.

Obviously that photo is a trick like holding a minnow close to the camera lens until it looks like a whale.

We've been trying to integrate my 2 cats with my girlfriends 4.  So far, 2 of hers are getting along with mine....2 left.  Of her cats, one is the oldest male and the other is an older female.  

I think my guys might need that armor  :)

Why are those photos doctored to look old?  The person in the first picture is clearly wearing new balance shoes.

Those pix aren't doctored. They are contact pix blown up. The negatives needed cleaning before the contact was made. This is from photography 101 type stuff, basic darkroom technique.
