My real living cats actually chase ghost mice across the yard. They’re ghosts, but they are real or else what are the cats chasing across the yard? (They are drug addicts, but I am trying to give the cats the benefit of the doubt.)
Well it’s not like they’re permanently dead or anything. They have nine lives after all. So just try not to kill any ones on their last life. I’m sure there’s some sort of detector.
I think it makes you like double extra megalocat lady if you have GHOST cats. There aren’t enouigh dogs in the world to offset that crazy cat lady stink.
It is PayPal’s policy that if an item is intentionally misidentified and the buyer wishes a refund, we need to take steps to nip this in the bud. Therefore, we need you to destroy the item and send us a photo before we can process a refund.
Somewhere, Jacqueline Stallone said the same thing while steepling her fingers like Montgomery Burns and mulling over how great that would look in comic sans as her new slogan for her Rumpology page.
I’m not sure about $5… do they come with all their astral vaccinations and astral spay or neutering? I mean, it’s not like there aren’t already enough dead cats out there, don’t need them multiplying like ghost rabbits.
I just opened shop as a ghost veterinarian. I can take care of astral spay and neutering, as well as bring them up on their astral shots.
Of course, I am a small ghost animal vet, so as soon as one of you FJLs start selling ghost dogs, ghost rabbits, ghost birds, and other ghost companions, I can quit grad school and dedicate my life to ghost animals full time.
We have a pterodactyl in our neighborhood. We’ve never seen it, although we hear it not infrequently. I had thought it was just shy, but mayhap is a ghost.
That explains why I can never find the FUCKING BASTARD PEACOCK that starts screaming it’s pea-sized brain off every morning starting at 3am and continuing until 10pm EVERY SPRING. It’s a ghost peacock. NP, I’ll just get some pellets blessed by a corrupt priest/pastor/guru/pope and when it starts back up in a month-ish I will just commence firing in its general direction.
Now with the lolcat out of the bag, it’s for my “let’s get real” response.
You might not know this, but you should: in the US, it is not legal to intentionally mislead someone in a monetary transaction by “underhanded” means. This has relevant implications for mediums and psychics. If a medium uses an obvious artifice to make people believe in ghosts without revealing it, she (or he? I don’t know if they make male or not-fat fortune tellers) can be charged with a crime. For example, it’s illegal for a medium to use a foot pedal to make noise during a seance, if the people present are not informed. It’s even illegal if the medium tells someone else they don’t actually believe in spirits, because that means they admit it’s bullshit.
So, the frightening implication is…
* It’s illegal if you believe it’s bullshit.
* It’s legal if you’re INSANE.
Welcome to the bizarre world of religious delusion. Your spirit cat is enclosed.
Interesting factoid:
Houdini (friend of H.P. Lovecraft) and his wife agreed that if Houdini found it possible to communicate after death, he would communicate the message “Rosabelle believe”. Houdini’s spirit never appeared.
Maybe he was just too busy playing with spirit kitties?
I already feel like I’m being haunted by two living cats.
One waits outside the bathroom for me, the other can’t leave me alone any time I’m in the kitchen.
Oh, I’m so excited! This will be a perfect addition to my ghost family that I started as a child with one of those “walking ghost dog leashes” you can buy at Disneyland! I love animals… I would just prefer to not see, smell, feel, hear, or see them, so this is really the perfect alternative for me.
I’m glad this seller has highlighted the important issue of post-mortem pet abandonment. Many cat owners are initially enchanted by their pets, only to lose interest over time as their committments change and their cat dies and decays.
Cats are forever, people! If you can no longer attend to the needs of your deceased pet, please find a reputable breeder to rehome the ghost cat and prevent feral colonies from developing.
I went on a Ghost Tour where the people running it were quite seriously trying to get on Ghost Hunters. So they had all the requisite gear and convoluted theories. And their big story was about being called in to investigate a haunted restaurant. Stuff would fall off the prep tables very mysteriously and it was driving the owner nutty.
They determined the place was littered with ghost cats, knocking stuff off the counters.
I was always tempted to go there, order some food, and send it back with a complaint that I’d discovered a ghost-cat hair in my meal.
They never made it on Ghost Hunters. It’s good to see they had a backup plan.
What really makes me snarf in my beer is knowing that at least one and possibly two people that I know would in fact spend money on this- They won’t vote, but they’d spend a few bucks to give a homeless cat(s ghost) some love. FML
I wish I had a ghost cat, but so far my beloved Clare who died of cancer last year seems content to remain wherever perfect cat go after they die. I was kind of hoping she’d pop in for the occasional phantom purring session or spectral face-kisses; maybe she disapproves of the new kibble we’ve been giving the other cats.
As joke (when I worked at one particular pet shop), we filled bags with water and set them up on the counter as “Invisible Fish”. No need to feed or change the water!
Oh, btw since word spreads so fast on the internet, I suppose it would be in the best interest of my company to advertise here. I sell dragons. Hand picked, top stock bred dragons, all bottle fed from the time they were old enough to fly. They can’t be seen or touched because of a magical dust that their mother’s sprinkle over them, to hide them from the dangers of humans. But what’s most important is that you believe in your heart that they exist, and isn’t that the REAL joy of owning a mythical creature? Also, it’s going to cost a couple hundred thousand. Cash only in non-tracable 50′s and 100′s. They’re… Very large.
…and great for starting the ghost fire in your fake fireplace, too! As an added bonus, they’ll happily destroy any ghost copies of Eragon you may have lying around.
This makes me want to cry. Not because it’s sweet or sad, but because they have sold this not once, but TWICE. My shop, with items I put serious hard work into making? 0 sales.
A cat ghost??? REALLY?!?!
*goes off to sob in the corner while she gets thumbed down*
The imaginary police investigated but I seduced them all and they covered it up. The imaginary coroner was a pain but we killed him. The funeral was a sight to see.
However, Tom’s imaginary friend Mr. Bubbles jams up the plumbing every so often….
Damn. Why can’t I ever get an idea like this? Charge an obscene amount of money for a piece of paper? (I’m guessing at the obscene part – she doesn’t have anything listed right now.)
Spirit Cat will stil turn its nose up at whatever Spirit Food you offer it, and leave Spirit Mice with their Spirit Heads chewed off on the front porch.
Just when I thought I’ve tried every dick, regrets comes along and fucks me in the ass.
This is a travesty to shelter cats who need homes. Then again, they are probably safer in the shelter than with anyone who would purchase a “ghost cat.”
I’d give you a BAHAHAHAHA hug if it were not for my terrible issues with personal space. In lieu, the next time you see some hot piece of ass/rack/tummy/$fav_body_part you may run up to him/her without warning and cop a feel.
Oh man, I should totally team up with this person so I can make some money. I’m a biology grad student and I’m pretty confident the building I work in is haunted by ghost cats, fish, mice, worms, flies, etc. The ghost pet possibilities are endless!!!
Oh,where is the home that the Spirit Cats roam?
Why, it’s on the astral plane.
Is that where we heard a discouraging word?
No, that was the home on the range.
Get off the stove you damn cats!
So if I choose to buy a ghost cat from a ghost cat breeder as opposed to adopting a ghost cat, does that mean I’m contributing to the overpopulation of ghost cats? Will there be feral colonies of ghost cats? Will homeless ghost cats be picked up by Class B dealers and sold to shady animal testing companies and have ghost toxicity tests performed on them? Or will ghost cats end up in ghost animal control centers to be euthanized if not adopted within seven days? What happens to a euthanized ghost cat? Are there ghost cat no-kill shelters?
(facing east, in the general direction of Boulder, Colorado where my dad lives)
DAMMIT DADDY! Why did you have to impart us with fucking ethics??!! I could make a fortune as a ghost pet whisperer!!! And a ghost pet pet-sitter! But NOOoooOooOooOooo!
OH HELLS YEAH! I’m a vet…I could make a fortune practicing on these fuckers. Bet they don’t bite. And how can I fail? They’re already dead! Results will astound you.
Who wants to design my Etsy ad for Ghost Cat Veterinary Services? Who you gonna call? Their ailments may be imaginary…but your cash better be real. Or else I’ll keep your ghost cat until you pay me. (Yes, I can do that, just like when I got your nose earlier.)
maybe this would be the answer for animal hoarders? They are only allowed so many animals, but there are no limits on animal ghosts! You can be “the crazy dead cat lady”! Ghost cats can’t get caught in the clutter…HEYyyyyyyyyyy, maybe the seller IS a crazy cat lady & every time she finds a dead cat stuck within her hoard she sells the dead cat and replaces it with another live cat. She’s out of stock right now because it takes awhile to locate the dead ones. Guess she goes by smell
So this came up when I hit random…and I think I’m going to buy one (she has a ghost mouse for sale too). I know, I’m nuts, but for some reason, this is irresistible to me…feel free to make fun of me. I might actually by the person that the crazy cat lady on The Simpsons was modeled after…just not as old.
February 23, 2012 at 2:11 pm
I bet it still leaves big stinky ghost turds in the litter box, though.
February 23, 2012 at 2:14 pm
That’s exactly what I was going to say! I bet I’ll still need to scoop their “ghost litter box”, huh?
February 23, 2012 at 2:15 pm
Oh, does it catch “ghost mice” too? We have a bad problem with ghost mice in our house…
February 23, 2012 at 3:37 pm
My real living cats actually chase ghost mice across the yard. They’re ghosts, but they are real or else what are the cats chasing across the yard? (They are drug addicts, but I am trying to give the cats the benefit of the doubt.)
February 23, 2012 at 4:26 pm
Dude, who’s giving ghost mice drugs?
February 23, 2012 at 4:50 pm
The blue greebles.
February 23, 2012 at 5:59 pm
Oh, the ghost mice get the drugs from my cats!
February 24, 2012 at 4:34 pm
Enabler cats.
February 25, 2012 at 3:04 am
Those must be Nargles
February 23, 2012 at 2:44 pm
But without a special scoop, they’ll just fall through it. You’ll need to track down a ghost in a New York subway to teach you how to do it properly.
February 23, 2012 at 2:19 pm
how can you sell out of ghost cats? you’d think there would be very good supply! ghost cats are a renewable resource!
February 23, 2012 at 2:22 pm
And if you run out, all you need to do is kill more cats!
Wow, too far.
February 23, 2012 at 2:25 pm
What’s that old saying?
Every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten.
February 23, 2012 at 2:28 pm
I have committed kitten genocide.
February 23, 2012 at 2:58 pm
For the love of God! Think of the kittens!
February 23, 2012 at 2:58 pm
I’m just going to leave this here

@HelloKnitty: Stephen Lynch is wickedly funny. I’ve been singing this song in my head since I saw this post.
February 23, 2012 at 3:38 pm
Why are there any cats left at this point?
February 23, 2012 at 3:43 pm
It only seems appropriate that I leave this here:
February 23, 2012 at 4:12 pm
That’s Ceiling Cat to you, and under the circumstances I think She’d understand.
February 23, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Let’s have a show of hands of those who have killed at least 2 cats in the last 24 hours.
February 23, 2012 at 2:57 pm
Is that what makes this “Hand made”?
February 23, 2012 at 3:39 pm
The seller personally made the cats into ghosts with her hands?
February 24, 2012 at 4:20 am
so it’s cheating if she uses her magic bullet? Gotcha.
Question; if she’s having cybersex, does she need to list the other person as a member of her shop? They’d probably appreciate it. They’re so ronery.
February 24, 2012 at 4:56 pm
Well it’s not like they’re permanently dead or anything. They have nine lives after all. So just try not to kill any ones on their last life. I’m sure there’s some sort of detector.
February 23, 2012 at 2:23 pm
Wow, I’d save a fortune in catgenie refills!
February 23, 2012 at 2:30 pm
Catgenie for the Win!
February 24, 2012 at 12:59 pm
you know what this calls for? A segment of GHOST flounce cats!

February 23, 2012 at 3:08 pm
I just want people to adopt REAL cats along with the ghost cats. Adopt ALL the cats. Cats are the gift that keeps on crapping
February 23, 2012 at 2:11 pm
This might sound absurd, but I think I’d be much more willing to deal with ectoplasmic hairballs than the corporeal thing.
February 23, 2012 at 3:09 pm
Plus, if they glow at least you’d be able to see them in the dark before stepping barefoot on a cold pile of cat puke!
February 23, 2012 at 3:25 pm
Stepping in warm cat puke is also quite a treat!
February 23, 2012 at 9:41 pm
Only if you are wearing your favorite new socks. Barefoot is awesome too.
February 23, 2012 at 2:11 pm
WOW, my very own ghost cat?
No one can judge me as a cat lady if they can’t see the cats!!
February 23, 2012 at 2:32 pm
I think it makes you like double extra megalocat lady if you have GHOST cats. There aren’t enouigh dogs in the world to offset that crazy cat lady stink.
February 23, 2012 at 2:59 pm
Yes. If you talk to and stroke dozens of imaginary cats, people will definitely think you are sane.
February 23, 2012 at 5:55 pm
Purrrfectly normal behavior!
I’m hilarious!
February 23, 2012 at 6:00 pm
No need to be catty.
February 23, 2012 at 2:11 pm
Where’s the litterbox with the ghost poop in it?
Nobody ever warns you of ghost cat responsibility! They just show you ghostly pictures of the cute cats.
Good luck cleaning that ghost litterbox!
February 23, 2012 at 2:11 pm
No thanks, cleaning up cat-barf is bad enough without making it intangible.
February 23, 2012 at 2:23 pm
And all the ectoplasm it marks it’s territory with stains the carpet.
February 24, 2012 at 11:42 am
Plus the ghost dogs would try to chase them out and start peeing all over your carpet.
February 23, 2012 at 2:12 pm
No thanks. My apartment complex would STILL find a way to keep my deposit due to “astral cat damage”.
February 23, 2012 at 2:12 pm
“Where’s that smell coming from, dammit?”
“Oh, that’s just the spectral cat. It sometimes has issues with bladder control.”
February 23, 2012 at 2:13 pm
Let’s all consider how many cats there would be in the world if every cat that died became a ghost cat.
February 23, 2012 at 2:27 pm
Especially if you get one ghost cat for each of the nine lives!
February 23, 2012 at 2:13 pm
Sold? That free shipping offer had me all ready to buy with my imaginary Paypal account.
February 23, 2012 at 2:40 pm
I want to see the paypal dispute if the buyer doesn’t like their kitty.
February 23, 2012 at 2:46 pm
“Dear Buyer,
It is PayPal’s policy that if an item is intentionally misidentified and the buyer wishes a refund, we need to take steps to nip this in the bud. Therefore, we need you to destroy the item and send us a photo before we can process a refund.
Thank you.
Your friends at PayPal”
February 23, 2012 at 3:01 pm
Exactly! The bastards …
February 23, 2012 at 3:04 pm
I’m tempted to buy one just to open a dispute.
February 23, 2012 at 3:10 pm
Kill…ghost cat…?
*sends paypal a photo of a live cat to prove the merchandise was destroyed*
February 23, 2012 at 4:41 pm
It might be the muscle relaxers, but that made me laugh so hard I snorted.
February 24, 2012 at 1:38 am
TMC, we must be taking the same muscle relaxer because I choked on an M&M when I read it, then kept laughing after it had cleared my throat.
February 23, 2012 at 5:03 pm
Yes, but how do you photograph, much less destroy, a ghost cat? Do you have to have the exorcist fill out a special notarized form?
February 23, 2012 at 2:14 pm
Wow six replies in the time it takes me to login and reply…lol. That said, I wonder if my dog will chase it away if I purchased one.
February 23, 2012 at 2:27 pm
Surely only if it’s an astral dog?
February 23, 2012 at 5:22 pm
Astro?
February 23, 2012 at 6:00 pm
Rokay!
February 23, 2012 at 5:26 pm
His dogma will chase it and his karma.
February 23, 2012 at 2:16 pm
I still swell up and have trouble breathing, but now my eyes only turn a light shade of pink.
February 23, 2012 at 2:16 pm
Hmm… I would hardly call this “unique” since Virtual Pussy is already widely for sale on the internet.
February 23, 2012 at 2:17 pm
I wonder if this would fall under “vintage” according to Etsy’s TOS?
February 23, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Fess up, April. You bought this, didn’t you?
February 23, 2012 at 2:19 pm
“All you have to do is believe.” Indeed.
February 23, 2012 at 2:20 pm
“And give me $5″
February 23, 2012 at 2:21 pm
I can give you exactly the same results for only $3. Just close your eyes and imagine owning a ghost cat. There we go! Now give me the money.
February 23, 2012 at 2:30 pm
While my eyes were closed the ghost cat ran away. I’d like a refund, please.
February 23, 2012 at 2:32 pm
Sorry, you just didn’t imagine hard enough. No refunds.
February 23, 2012 at 3:02 pm
Thanks. Now do you do astral parrots?
February 23, 2012 at 3:15 pm
Cats, dogs, wolves, dolphins, platypuses, and sloths, but no parrots.
I could probably source one for $50.
February 23, 2012 at 3:24 pm
Deep fried christ, how many times do I have to say this? The fucking parrots aren’t dead, they’re just shagged out after a long squawk.
Beautiful plumage though.
February 23, 2012 at 7:36 pm
There are no ghost parrots. They’re just pining for the fjords.
February 23, 2012 at 9:22 pm
But I imagined the shit out of giving you $3.00.
February 24, 2012 at 4:30 am
“All you have to do is believe.” Indeed.
Somewhere, Jacqueline Stallone said the same thing while steepling her fingers like Montgomery Burns and mulling over how great that would look in comic sans as her new slogan for her Rumpology page.

February 23, 2012 at 7:44 pm
It’s from… Ghostbusters… of course.
February 23, 2012 at 2:21 pm
Not for me! I prefer to go through the black-market ghost-cat trade. Like maybe a nice Siamese…
February 23, 2012 at 6:43 pm
Trust me, there can be only pain if you go that route.
February 23, 2012 at 2:21 pm
Dear Helen and Bronc. GOD BLESS YOUR AWESOME PHOTOSHOP POWERZ. These are the best thing I’ve seen all day, by a mile.
February 23, 2012 at 3:10 pm
Apropos of nothing, remember that proudly smiling dog photo you posted a week or two ago? I have a printout on my wall and it always makes me smile.
Some people have examined the photo and are pretty sure it’s not PhotoShopped. Please do NOT tell me if it is.
Thanks.
February 23, 2012 at 7:41 pm
Agree! I was snorting until I saw the last photo of the ghost turd, then I spewed my Moscato everywhere!
February 23, 2012 at 2:22 pm
Hmmm, bad punctuation, or she’s giving away a meditation, and directions. I can only wonder where the directions will lead you.
February 23, 2012 at 2:30 pm
Hmm. If they’re directions to the astral plane, what’s the point of going there and calling the astral cat? It’s not going to come when you call!
February 23, 2012 at 3:02 pm
If you have ghost Bonito flakes, they’ll come when you call!! Or ghostnip!
February 23, 2012 at 2:24 pm
Ectoplasmic pussy!
February 23, 2012 at 2:28 pm
I’m not sure about $5… do they come with all their astral vaccinations and astral spay or neutering? I mean, it’s not like there aren’t already enough dead cats out there, don’t need them multiplying like ghost rabbits.
February 23, 2012 at 7:19 pm
I just opened shop as a ghost veterinarian. I can take care of astral spay and neutering, as well as bring them up on their astral shots.
Of course, I am a small ghost animal vet, so as soon as one of you FJLs start selling ghost dogs, ghost rabbits, ghost birds, and other ghost companions, I can quit grad school and dedicate my life to ghost animals full time.
February 23, 2012 at 2:29 pm
If I’m gonna pay for an astral pet, it’s gonne be something really fucking cool like a pterodactyl (no offense to my cat and dog of course)
February 23, 2012 at 11:02 pm
We have a pterodactyl in our neighborhood. We’ve never seen it, although we hear it not infrequently. I had thought it was just shy, but mayhap is a ghost.
February 24, 2012 at 11:34 pm
That explains why I can never find the FUCKING BASTARD PEACOCK that starts screaming it’s pea-sized brain off every morning starting at 3am and continuing until 10pm EVERY SPRING. It’s a ghost peacock. NP, I’ll just get some pellets blessed by a corrupt priest/pastor/guru/pope and when it starts back up in a month-ish I will just commence firing in its general direction.

Now with the lolcat out of the bag, it’s for my “let’s get real” response.
You might not know this, but you should: in the US, it is not legal to intentionally mislead someone in a monetary transaction by “underhanded” means. This has relevant implications for mediums and psychics. If a medium uses an obvious artifice to make people believe in ghosts without revealing it, she (or he? I don’t know if they make male or not-fat fortune tellers) can be charged with a crime. For example, it’s illegal for a medium to use a foot pedal to make noise during a seance, if the people present are not informed. It’s even illegal if the medium tells someone else they don’t actually believe in spirits, because that means they admit it’s bullshit.
So, the frightening implication is…

If you do adopt, do you have to adopt all nine of them?
February 23, 2012 at 2:49 pm
You just blew my mind.
February 23, 2012 at 2:34 pm
Oh, shipping is free is it? That’s good.
February 23, 2012 at 2:38 pm
Don’t buy ghost cats from this vendor!!
I did, and when it was delivered it was dead. At least, I think it was dead. Shit, now I don’t know.
February 23, 2012 at 2:39 pm
Once again, I have a feeling I’m in the wrong business.
February 23, 2012 at 2:43 pm
Once again, if I were any kind of scumbag, I’d be a millionaire.
February 23, 2012 at 2:44 pm
This would be on par with the ebay “ghost in a jar” listings.
February 23, 2012 at 3:04 pm
Remember the ghost cane and all its spin-offs!
February 23, 2012 at 3:04 pm
The haunted dolls.
February 23, 2012 at 5:30 pm
Natural ghost is so much healthier for you than ghost in a jar.
February 23, 2012 at 2:47 pm
I already feel like I’m being haunted by two living cats.
One waits outside the bathroom for me, the other can’t leave me alone any time I’m in the kitchen.
February 23, 2012 at 3:01 pm
Oh, I’m so excited! This will be a perfect addition to my ghost family that I started as a child with one of those “walking ghost dog leashes” you can buy at Disneyland! I love animals… I would just prefer to not see, smell, feel, hear, or see them, so this is really the perfect alternative for me.

I’m glad this seller has highlighted the important issue of post-mortem pet abandonment. Many cat owners are initially enchanted by their pets, only to lose interest over time as their committments change and their cat dies and decays.

This means he won’t start sneezing until after he dies, right?

And their big story was about being called in to investigate a haunted restaurant. Stuff would fall off the prep tables very mysteriously and it was driving the owner nutty.
They determined the place was littered with ghost cats, knocking stuff off the counters.
I was always tempted to go there, order some food, and send it back with a complaint that I’d discovered a ghost-cat hair in my meal.
They never made it on Ghost Hunters. It’s good to see they had a backup plan.

so tell me do ghost kitties get ghost cat diseases and ghost cat vet bills to pay?
February 23, 2012 at 7:46 pm
Or ghost fleas? or ghost earmites?
February 23, 2012 at 3:10 pm
What really makes me snarf in my beer is knowing that at least one and possibly two people that I know would in fact spend money on this- They won’t vote, but they’d spend a few bucks to give a homeless cat(s ghost) some love. FML
February 23, 2012 at 3:12 pm
In a way, I’m kind of glad that people who would buy this might not be voting. There’s a kind of comfort in that.
February 23, 2012 at 3:12 pm
I wish I had a ghost cat, but so far my beloved Clare who died of cancer last year seems content to remain wherever perfect cat go after they die. I was kind of hoping she’d pop in for the occasional phantom purring session or spectral face-kisses; maybe she disapproves of the new kibble we’ve been giving the other cats.
February 23, 2012 at 3:18 pm
I don’t know what’s worst, the fact that someone’s actually offering this for sale or the fact some dumb schmuck actually BOUGHT it!
You know what? That cat looks lonely. Why not buy him a spirit fish to keep him company?
$400 please!
February 23, 2012 at 3:22 pm
As joke (when I worked at one particular pet shop), we filled bags with water and set them up on the counter as “Invisible Fish”. No need to feed or change the water!
We sold several of them that day for $2.99.
February 23, 2012 at 3:19 pm
Oh, btw since word spreads so fast on the internet, I suppose it would be in the best interest of my company to advertise here. I sell dragons. Hand picked, top stock bred dragons, all bottle fed from the time they were old enough to fly. They can’t be seen or touched because of a magical dust that their mother’s sprinkle over them, to hide them from the dangers of humans. But what’s most important is that you believe in your heart that they exist, and isn’t that the REAL joy of owning a mythical creature? Also, it’s going to cost a couple hundred thousand. Cash only in non-tracable 50′s and 100′s. They’re… Very large.
February 23, 2012 at 6:20 pm
…and great for starting the ghost fire in your fake fireplace, too! As an added bonus, they’ll happily destroy any ghost copies of Eragon you may have lying around.
February 24, 2012 at 10:27 am
which breed of dragon is it?
is it medieval times dragon? or asian dragon?
February 23, 2012 at 3:24 pm
ghost kitty, spirit kitty, little puff of air
dead kitty, unkitty, where where where?
February 23, 2012 at 3:47 pm
Kitchen Bish I heart you SO MUCH for that!
February 24, 2012 at 6:12 am
Sampler, t-shirt, tattoo, panties, please. Even a pattern would do. I’d learn how to make samplers for this one.
February 23, 2012 at 3:26 pm
I take it all back, I have been so wrong about cat people, as proven by the fact that this is “sold”.
February 23, 2012 at 3:28 pm
This makes me want to cry. Not because it’s sweet or sad, but because they have sold this not once, but TWICE. My shop, with items I put serious hard work into making? 0 sales.
A cat ghost??? REALLY?!?!
*goes off to sob in the corner while she gets thumbed down*
February 23, 2012 at 3:36 pm
I have a rather severe cat allergy. What would I need to take for an astral cat? Allegra-G?
February 23, 2012 at 5:42 pm
Well, if you want to see your ghost-cat, you could take Clairvoyatin.
February 24, 2012 at 4:39 am
Very well done.
February 23, 2012 at 3:50 pm
.. “Sold”?
February 23, 2012 at 3:55 pm
I can has exorcism?
Seriously, though, this would be great company for the ghost of my imaginary boyfriend Tom. I killed Tom when he wanted to leave me for someone else…
February 23, 2012 at 4:46 pm
Imaginary Tom was a real prick. We had a one-night stand and he promised he’d call me the next day. Then he started hitting on my friends.
I’m glad you killed him.
February 23, 2012 at 6:19 pm
The imaginary police investigated but I seduced them all and they covered it up. The imaginary coroner was a pain but we killed him. The funeral was a sight to see.
However, Tom’s imaginary friend Mr. Bubbles jams up the plumbing every so often….
February 23, 2012 at 3:58 pm
Damnit, I still think it won’t get around the No Pet policy here.
February 23, 2012 at 4:02 pm
That fuckin’ “Ghost Turd” had me pissing myself!!!
February 23, 2012 at 4:04 pm
Dead kitties
Dead kitties
Dead kitties aren’t much fun.
They won’t curl
Into a ball
They won’t purr
In your lap at all
Dead kitties aren’t much fun.
February 23, 2012 at 4:07 pm
Damn. Why can’t I ever get an idea like this? Charge an obscene amount of money for a piece of paper? (I’m guessing at the obscene part – she doesn’t have anything listed right now.)
February 23, 2012 at 4:07 pm
Spirit Cat will stil turn its nose up at whatever Spirit Food you offer it, and leave Spirit Mice with their Spirit Heads chewed off on the front porch.

Mousies what I love to eat.
February 23, 2012 at 4:13 pm
I already get tons of email and FB posts about living cats that need homes. Now I have to deal with GHOST CATS, TOO?
Apropos of nothing, the sponsored link on my FB page said
Free Barack Obama Sticker
Did they mean
“Free Barack Obama” Sticker
or
Free “Barack Obama” Sticker?
February 23, 2012 at 4:51 pm
Just when I thought I’ve tried every dick, regrets comes along and fucks me in the ass.
This is a travesty to shelter cats who need homes. Then again, they are probably safer in the shelter than with anyone who would purchase a “ghost cat.”
February 23, 2012 at 4:52 pm
Hah, take that, Schrodinger! The cat? Totally dead.
February 24, 2012 at 11:39 pm
I’d give you a BAHAHAHAHA hug if it were not for my terrible issues with personal space. In lieu, the next time you see some hot piece of ass/rack/tummy/$fav_body_part you may run up to him/her without warning and cop a feel.
February 23, 2012 at 4:53 pm
regretsy*
Sorry it’s hard to type when you’re being pounded
February 23, 2012 at 5:07 pm
Oh man, I should totally team up with this person so I can make some money. I’m a biology grad student and I’m pretty confident the building I work in is haunted by ghost cats, fish, mice, worms, flies, etc. The ghost pet possibilities are endless!!!
February 24, 2012 at 1:52 pm
Forget adoptions. Sell ghost armies of dissected pig foetuses to crazy dictators in banana republics.
February 23, 2012 at 5:22 pm
Oh,where is the home that the Spirit Cats roam?
Why, it’s on the astral plane.
Is that where we heard a discouraging word?
No, that was the home on the range.
Get off the stove you damn cats!
February 23, 2012 at 5:53 pm
Can I buy level 4 cat as my ghost cat?
Also, how much do these cost?
February 23, 2012 at 7:40 pm
The Level 4 can transcends all astral planes.
February 23, 2012 at 6:14 pm
Ghost cat? I am feeling very apropos of nothing on this post.
February 23, 2012 at 7:55 pm
I’m headed back to the turd post. I need a treat.
February 23, 2012 at 6:20 pm
I was expecting pictures of dead hoarder cats. Side effect of too much hoarders? No such thing!
February 23, 2012 at 6:21 pm
This must be the fifth level.
February 23, 2012 at 6:21 pm
SOLD.
SMH.
February 23, 2012 at 7:11 pm

Who could be outraged at this? It just made me HOWL! (And yes, three cats call me their human servant!)
February 23, 2012 at 9:09 pm
All you have to do is believe.
Oh, and send me money.
February 23, 2012 at 9:41 pm
So if I choose to buy a ghost cat from a ghost cat breeder as opposed to adopting a ghost cat, does that mean I’m contributing to the overpopulation of ghost cats? Will there be feral colonies of ghost cats? Will homeless ghost cats be picked up by Class B dealers and sold to shady animal testing companies and have ghost toxicity tests performed on them? Or will ghost cats end up in ghost animal control centers to be euthanized if not adopted within seven days? What happens to a euthanized ghost cat? Are there ghost cat no-kill shelters?
So many questions…
February 24, 2012 at 12:00 am
Omg Lemon_bombs, our dogs must be the same breed! They cost a small fortune, but are so worth it, am I right?
February 24, 2012 at 1:13 am
I can’t even stand my real cat sometimes, so why in the hell would I want a “supposed” ghost cat yowling at me while i’m trying to sleep?!
Are you able to take ghost cats to invisible shelters if they have a behavioral problem?
February 24, 2012 at 2:00 am
No, but you can hire a ghost animal behaviorist.
February 24, 2012 at 2:05 am
Ha! That’s excellent. It would be like “Ghost Whisperer: The Feline Edition”
February 24, 2012 at 11:41 pm
(facing east, in the general direction of Boulder, Colorado where my dad lives)
DAMMIT DADDY! Why did you have to impart us with fucking ethics??!! I could make a fortune as a ghost pet whisperer!!! And a ghost pet pet-sitter! But NOOoooOooOooOooo!
February 24, 2012 at 3:08 am
Sometimes dead is better
February 24, 2012 at 5:29 am
It comes with directions?
So I have to rescue this cat from the kennels of purgatory it currently wanders? Does it come with a big long rope so I can go in after it?
Oh! Maybe it comes with a dead fireman.
February 24, 2012 at 1:47 pm
Maybe I should have read the
summoning spellwelcoming prayer better.Mine… umm…. turned out wrong…
February 24, 2012 at 1:51 pm
I know I am a little late to the party but I felt compelled to google the lovely finder of Ghost Cats.
It seems she also a talented artists. She paints the real truth behind encounters with aliens…
http://www.aliensthetruth.com/Aliens_artwork.php?view=1&ID=56
I love the multi dimension of crazy that is working for her…
February 24, 2012 at 2:45 pm
OH HELLS YEAH! I’m a vet…I could make a fortune practicing on these fuckers. Bet they don’t bite. And how can I fail? They’re already dead! Results will astound you.
Who wants to design my Etsy ad for Ghost Cat Veterinary Services? Who you gonna call? Their ailments may be imaginary…but your cash better be real. Or else I’ll keep your ghost cat until you pay me. (Yes, I can do that, just like when I got your nose earlier.)
February 24, 2012 at 2:50 pm
“I’m so sorry, Ms. Killer, your ghost cat is very ill, and it looks like we’re going to have to resurrect him.”

Pffft, ghost kitties are an old shoe if you are a rader of Girls With Slingshots http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws-1273/
February 24, 2012 at 7:22 pm
My ghost cat has really taken care of my ghost mouse problem.
February 25, 2012 at 10:12 am
maybe this would be the answer for animal hoarders? They are only allowed so many animals, but there are no limits on animal ghosts! You can be “the crazy dead cat lady”! Ghost cats can’t get caught in the clutter…HEYyyyyyyyyyy, maybe the seller IS a crazy cat lady & every time she finds a dead cat stuck within her hoard she sells the dead cat and replaces it with another live cat. She’s out of stock right now because it takes awhile to locate the dead ones. Guess she goes by smell
April 3, 2012 at 10:52 pm
So this came up when I hit random…and I think I’m going to buy one (she has a ghost mouse for sale too). I know, I’m nuts, but for some reason, this is irresistible to me…feel free to make fun of me. I might actually by the person that the crazy cat lady on The Simpsons was modeled after…just not as old.
