Viking Zero

Attack!!

catcakes!!

catcakes with a salmon pate frosting. nom nom nom nom nom.

catz + vodka jello. no they dont really mix well together.

not shaken or stirred. but jellified. zero is curious, but ultimately not happy with his new food source. now maybe if i'd used tuna fat instead. o well thats what next time is for.

dance dance, zero movin to the groovin

little fat kitties go crazy when they have the string!

because zero is so awesome, i brought him more string!

zero in a bookshelf!!

that's not a book or board game?! zero, what'chu doin in that book case?

this is howz my cat treez workz

i go down & down & out

mah bread!

this here is mah bread. don't you be stealing it!

i haz a rope necklace yo.

no. it's not a noose. it's my funtime bling. because im a cat. and cat's really don't like bling. unless there's light reflecting off of it, and then they can chase around imaginary lightballs. but really cats do love string. and this here is some fine string bling.

i am too fatz to jump

you have to wait for it, but watching a fat cat jump & flail is hilarious.

this is howz you entertain a cat with a piece of string.

just in case you didn't know how to.

kawaii kat

i know this is just more of me playing with my silly man leash, but i'm just so darn cute.

catz on a leash

i am not a dog! why do you make me wear this ridiculous leash? decency here people.

i haz a cheezeburger

zero loves to nom nom nom on his cheezeburgerz.

where's the jaws theme song when you need it?

this apparently is what happens when i have too much free time. (not this blog obviously, just this video)

zero does not a cowboy make

with his squishy body, it's no wonder zero can't wrangle them cattle.

zero makes a new friend

like any good dog, zero knows you can't really tell anything about a new acquaintance without sniffing their butt first.

me, hipster iz, zero & mystery cat.

what is this strange new land?

when unloading the new dining room table, we found ourselves with a huge blanket that was just dying for some zero love. i mushed out the terrain & dropped an unsuspecting zero on top & let his facial expression speak for itself.

zero the zombie killer

i think he's found his new calling. zero the dancing cat.

so in an attempt to re-create this myself, i sat the silly zero down on my lap & had him get a little groovy. to which he responded. f this. and scratched up my arm. think i'll leave the dancing puppet antics to iz & the filming to myself.

spotted: zero on the war path

zero and his darn obsession with my camera cord. string. not so interesting. bust out the camera. he's all over it. i didn't even call him over & he was already in attack mode!

zero loves getting his tummy scratched!

ready for my close up.

cat in a bag.

Cat in a bag! Akin to Maru & his nifty little trick to get bottles off his head, Zero deftly maneuvers out of the plastic trap we've set.

zero attacks!

go zero go!

black cat trance. or the only way i could get him to sit still.

it's pretty amazing how easily captivated zero is by a string swung around in circles.

zero also likes to nom on olive trees!

cuz im just nom nom noming on heavens door. can't wait to see him on cracknip.

zero likes to stick his head in pots.

no idea why, but it does make for some hilarious videos!

what happens when you try to get any work done with zero flopping around.

Cats can work out mathematically the exact place to sit that will cause most inconvenience.

zero's poker face.

The problem with cats is that they get the exact same look on their face whether they see a moth or an axe-murderer.

~Paula Poundstone

i am going to eat you.

a sad attempt to capture zero's defense tactics. normally he likes to shove his whole head into someone's mouth, because that's the safest place to hide. realistically. it's not like they're going to chomp your head off.

instead we're graced with a video of iz looking silly while playing with the CAT.

i just love having my belly scratched!

let me flail around on the ground while you rub my soft underbelly, and make silly faces to boot! this is yet another reason why the little ball of fluff lovingly known as zero would not make it very far in the real world.

zero foils himself whilest dealing with a nefarious brain slug

a giant arc in the skyspace of directions (coincidentally the same title as mike vukadinovich's play currently performing at the powerhouse theater)

overseeing his kingdom from atop his castle tower

what happens when zeroes attack your camera wrist strap

hypnotoad foiled by zero & his massive brain waves

zero & the incredibly fast moving light beam in the sky of wonder

bored one morning, zero & i came up with a delightful little game. much like those trying to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, zero was more than intrigued by the sunlit reflection off my modavo and raced in earnest around the room to try and chase down the mysterious ball of light. enjoy!

my introduction to zero

not too long ago i met this lovable little furball named zero. zero you ask? my boyfriend being the adorable nerd that he is, named him after his favorite megaman character (& coincidentally one of the harder characters to unlock in capcom vs [fill in something japanese here.])

iz always thought zero was ripe for maru-esq internet fandom, so here's my ode to the next silly superstar.
