Cat Scanning

Posted by rachelcreative on May 7, 2008

This is what happens when you get Flyman (our cat) to play with the scanner.  Just for fun …

Fluffy ears - but keeping his distance.

hand scan

Wobbly fingers.

Can’t hold back any longer and he tapped the glass with his paw.

Removable ears! Freaky!

And finally - an abstract sort of cat.

    That’s fantastic. You scanned the cat. How cool is that???
    Please can you come round and scan Miscou when we get her back. I think it could be the start of a major art movement….
    scanned pets.

    Mikki: How about we give you the scanner and Flyman and you can do whatever you like with them both?
    We’ll get a new scanner…and a puppy ;-)

    First - we are going to need a bigger scanner to maximise Miscou’s super furriness.

    Second - did you used to go to that site cat-scan.com? That was just pictures of cats sitting on flat bed scanners with big paws and furry bottoms. Very funny. Apparently now defunct :o(

    So instead here are three cat and scanner links instead:

    PS: Our scanner is not strong enough to let old dump-truck Flyman stand on it. Do not be duped by my husband.

    I have just finished reading a book that, whilst rubbish in many other respects, featured a cat called Chairman Miaow. Possibly the best cat name ever.

    Hmm. You may have to scan small bits of Miscou at a time. My scanner doubles as a fax machine. If I work on it carefully I could scan her in and fax her straight off.
