Telling it like it is. Nice.

Okay, so LOL cats isn’t stated the captions literally, it’s a joke. They are funny because (for the most part) that’s what it seems like. That’s why they are funny. I honestly do not believe that a cat has laser eyes, but it is humorous to make a silly comment about it. Having said that, get a sense of humor and relax.

I agree that these aren’t funny. Plus I’m pretty sure that cat isn’t an egyptian mau either. It looks more like a Bengal to me.

It is an Egyptian mau, aged 7 months. (He’s my cat, that’s how I know.)

The problem with the statement above is that Snow Leapords and Egyptian Maus ARE arguably in the same species, both belonging to the feline family.
The difference being that the two types of cats are entirely different breeds, but the two are indeed related.
This is, however, debatable, depending on one’s interpretation of the word “Species”.

“The most significant difference” for me as a human is that snow leopords eat humans.

This cat is not interested in whether you had an interaction with someone else in junior high that also likes Harry Potter.

I would have said Ocicat or Bengal, though Bengals have more prominent leopard-like spots rather then cheeta/ocelot-like spots. But being that its already confirmed mau, my observations are rather null & void

Just because they’re different species doesn’t mean they’re not related. Sure not as closely as the original LOLcats caption indicates…but geez man.
This cat is not amused by the recaptioning courtesy of Captain Bringdown and the Buzz Kill Brigade.

Unless I’m mistaken, domestic kitties purr on inspiration and expiration, the big cats only on expiration. I’ve not tried scratching a big cat behind the ears to confirm this.

“The problem with the statement above is that Snow Leapords (sic) and Egyptian Maus ARE arguably in the same species, both belonging to the feline family.” This is incorrect. There is no argument to be had. They are both in the Felidae family, but do not share the same sub-family (Felinae for cats). By comparison, humans share the same sub-family and tribe as chimpanzees. Snow Leopards and Egyptian Maus are in the same species to a lesser extent than humans and chimps are the same species.

I have to say that they both are in the cat or feline family, and no they are not related, such as in the same litter or even same species, but they are somewhat ‘related’. Just like I am a human, and so is a ‘real’ African person, so we are ‘related’ in a small way, but not family…..hope that clears this up some!

They are not different species. They are still cats.

Anyone who thinks species is a ‘fixed’ definition with no variance allowed for human error in definition/classification is seriously mistaken.
Even biologists can’t agree on where species boundaries always lie. You have coyotes with ‘wolf dna’ in the northeast. You have domestic cats giving birth to half-bobcats. You have Pumapards, ligers, leopons, etc. You could probably cross a snow leopard with a house cat (in vitro fertilization) and have something come out.
So yeah the entire caption is massive fail.
