Are Cats Taking Over College Radio?

In some inexplicable wave of cat-nip induced psychosis, cats have been steadily purring their way past dogs as pop-culture's animals of choice (squirrels are in a close second). Could this surge in popularity be because of their irresistibly cuddly faces, their penchant for all things fuzzy, or their teeny little paws? Naw...it's all due to keyboard cat.

Cats of the moment include:

Snacks, who proudly owns Bethany Cosentino of Best Coast...

The cover-star of British band The Klaxons new album "Surfing the Void"...

And the model who inspired the cover of Wavves most recent album "King of the Beach"

Holy Fuck!
