“Cats love it!”

This cat, I take it, would beg to differ.

5.5″ long…you are not going to impress the ladies with that.

(I know there was a post about rules of commenting earlier this week, but really does this post even warrant a serious comment?)

  Well, you did contribute to the discussion, such as it is.

The idea that cats like dressing up as unicorns is a complete phallusy…

  They’re just wanging it.

Are you going to take this thing off of my head, or shall I scratch your eyes out first?

This product might just save Halloween!
I can’t wait to strap a few dozen of these to my kitty-boys. They will instantly be transformed into porcupines or even exotic sea urchins! (So glad I have to buy these by the dozen, so I save on shipping)

The picture on the box is the best one they could get. In all the other pictures the cats looked even less happy.

The blurb sounds like Liz Lemon wrote it.

While the cat on the package photo definitely looks unhappy, that’s probably not due to the horn strapped to his head. It probably has more to do with the installation of the optional glitter dispenser.

Another fine way to make a cat do the Wilford Brimley face.

Inflatable= room enough for claw holes.

Loving the “I will kill you in your sleep for this” expression on the kitteh :D

The cat pictured is a buzzkill.

It’s actually a facial massage unit to “relieve tension.” For those hard to reach places. Kitteh is a cover.

  Ironically that the typical number of condoms in a box as well.

I would love to see a manufacturer’s representative try to put that on say, a lion, cheetah or leopard. THEN we’ll see how much “Cats Love It!”

That’s one horny pussy!

That cat’s thinking “Right, I’m going to crap in your slippers!”

What boggles me is not that it’s a unicorn horn for cats. It’s an inflatable unicorn horn for cats. Also, I love how one of the features is “illustrated box”.

Maybe it’s time for an unKickStarter (KickCurber?) where we can all donate money to have products that should never have been contemplated much less made can pay to have the offending thing burned out of history?

  I’m pretty sure that we did a post on that idea a year or so ago, but I can’t find it.

  Isn’t that how everyone aborted the “Akira” remake?

My cat would love this the way Dennis Hopper “loves” in Blue Velvet.

Amazing. Kittens have always wanted to be something more, and this unicorn horn allows them to do just that.Unicorn cosplay is a fine art refined by years of development. I shall be purchasing 10 of them immediately. Excellent work.
