Kitten War

Awhile back one of my friends told me about the best site ever, Kitten War, which pits two adorably cute kittens against each other, and you have to decide which is cuter. Being an avid kitten photographer, I immediately went home and posted a picture of Tyra on the site. After awhile I checked her progress and found she’d won only a few of her battles. The “all of our kittens are winners really…” slogan at the bottom of the page didn’t really make me feel any better. I decided that the photo I chose, one of her looking curiously into the camera lense with flowers in the background just wasn’t cute enough. After doing some research, I finally settled on this image.

Since it’s technically cheating to post two pictures of the same cat, I called her by a different name (Tbone) and this picture has done better (at last check had won or drawn 56% of battles) but still wasn’t garnering quite the response I hoped.

Well this morning I finally took a kitten photo, this time of Willis, that I think will have a fighting chance on the site. It’s got all the elements: wide eyes, cute cat, unlikely location. Pretty much it’s perfect. I submitted it this morning and in a few days it should be active, so head over to Kittenwar and vote for Willis!
