Ceiling Cat

Kate explained to me why she caught on to Toby Speak so quickly by saying she knew about icanhascheezburger and also was familiar with something call Ceiling Cat (which I had never heard of). She wrote

"Ceiling Cat was once I think an innocent reference to how a cat would refer to a kitty god (and the devil was 'Basement Cat,' of course). Someone had translated entire passages of the bible in 'can-has cat' speak. It was hysterical."

Unfortunately, the idea has degenerated into something else (details not important). I finally decided to do a little research despite this turn of events, hoping to find something that captures the original idea and found that good ol' icanhas has a boatload of really wonderful images, one of which appears below. To see 'em all, just click the link below.
