Celebrating 3000 years of Cat Mustaches

Photoblog of cat tail "mustaches"

Ever since the cities of Ancient Babylon first built their mud-brick granaries and staffed them with cats against the marauding mouse, people have made fools of themselves by making fake mustachios out of feline tails. Here we see many modern examples of the Cat Priestesses and Temple Guardians, furtively and expertly grabbing tail to explore the many faces made possible by general idiocy and disturbing indifference to the smell of cat ass.

Send your submissions to me and if they are deemed worthy, I will put them up to be admired by all and sundry.

Christopher. Darling. We are not prejudiced here at catmustache.blogspot.com. All kinds of cat, except perhaps the valuable Manx, are suitable for the creation of the ephemeral yet glorious "cat mustache". And all kinds of cat are welcome.

This is a dog, not a cat. What next? Rats? Skunks? Armadillos?

Or will you go far, far too far in an entirely different direction, and present us with... the cat merkin?

It is this sort of disrespect for taxonomy that is ruining our modern world.

Christopher Sykes has sent us two examples of the noble art.

Here, apparently it takes more than one set of hands to keep the cat in place.

Great curvy tail-tip configuration there, y'all!
