Of this group, 14 are cats, one of them a lion rather than a house cat, and thirteen are not cats. I have noticed that at the famous computer website "lolcats" many of the pictures which are mostly buried in the advertising are also not cats. Not that they aren't lovely and/or amusing creatures, but they aren't "lolcats," because they simply aren't cats.

I know, I know, I'm a grouchy old man who is spoiling everyone's fun, probably also a troll, and I should go away. I'm gone. I said my piece and I'm not going to get into a flame war.
