I CAN HAS EPHEMERAL CELEBRITY

I just discovered that Niobe became a lolcat in 2007. (Seen via How To Kill Your Imaginary Friends.)

(For all I know, I granted permission for this. I almost always say yes if asked and I never remember these things.)

Wow, that is one of my favorite LOLcats! Do you have other pictures of Niobe sort of like that one?

There's this classic

about which somebody said she needed a Terminator-style red glint in the shaded eye.

The lolcat is perfect; Niobe really is always fraught with skepticism, and looks it. I found one page that speculated that the odd color scheme of the picture contributed to the mood. That was an artifact of the old Nikon Coolpix 2500 I was using, which lost so much information in the blue channel under incandescent light that you couldn't correct it without introducing a lot of noise. That armchair was actually maroon.

Good thing she's skeptical! I heard you disowned Credulous Cat!

What about "here's a picture of a cat jumping in the air"
