WINNER: Best Cat Funeral

Went to the bookstore the other day and wouldn'tcha know it, but this caught my eye:
It's Thomasina!!! THE BOOK!!!  Understand that while I was recovering from kidney surgery at the wee age of six, I was FREAKING OBSESSED with the movie version, which came out in 1964 and my parents for some reason had a VHS copy of.  I would lie there, pretty much bedridden, and watch this shit OVER AND OVER again, occasionally switching it out for The Last Unicorn or Flower Drum Song.  The book is much more grown up and sinister than the movie, but as I read it I have been reminded of how fucking weird and surreal the movie was, so light one up and watch these clips if you truly want to know WHAT CAT HEAVEN IZ LIKE.  DISCLAIMER:  IT INVOLVES AN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN FELINE CULT AND CHILDREN PLAYING BAGPIPES....watch it if you dare!!!!
