Whiteish cat Wednesday.

I know this is "I heart Dead Things" and technically this cat is not dead but if it continues its 40 a day habit it will be soon.

White Cat Wednesday. Winged again

Yes, it's another bloody white cat with wings.
Although this one is so cute and fluffy it reminds me of the Care Bear Cousins or something.

White Cat Wednesday. Winged again

Shoving wings on cats is obviously an emerging trend.
Maybe people think it will get their beloved pet to heven quicker but with all thoses dogs there...

Monday

Action squirrels.

There is a veritable plethora of action squirrels out there.
This one is one of my favourite as it really gives us an insight about how our furry friends resolve disputes regarding acorns.

White Cat Wednesday.

A little change this week.
Its White Rat Wednesday.
Not quite sure whats happening here but I think that rat is smiling.

Tuesday

A penny saved...

In this time of hardship we all need somewhere safe to keep our savings.
I think this is perfect.

Monday

Holiday Celebrate.

I know I have considered it a viable option for a cheap holiday but this camel is really going for it.

Friday

Relaxed Friday.

Another relaxed piece this Friday.
Today a placid badger. Well he said it was a badger but Im really not sure.

Thursday

Lazy spider monkey hitches rides on parrot.

Found today from Metro.

This squirrel monkey is enjoying the benefits of befriending the blue and gold macaw by hopping on its back for rides.

The bone idle animal lives with a male and female parrot at a countryside hotel, and the trio have become inseparable.

‘Its favourite activity is to climb on the back of the parrot and ride it around,’ said photographer Alejandro Jaramillo, 23, who spotted the unlikely pals in San Agustin, Colombia.

I know its not dead but I had to share.

Who actually is Johnny?

Johnnys Bird is an international lifestyle and fashion blog that I like. Its a bit crack house couture.
Im loving the use of miscellaneous spinal column as necklace holder. Ace.

Wednesday

White Cat Wednesday.

Fyling cats? Interesting concept.
Flying cats with chicken feet, a sanke tail and horns?
Is Dahli doing taxidermy fromt the grave?

Tuesday

Action squirrels.

It takes a true craftsman to capture realistic action in a piece of taxidermy.
I think this one hits all the right notes.

Friday

Piranah double D.

I have always wanted a piranah piece until I saw Piranah 3D.
Then I wanted Kelly Brook to swim under my glass bottom.

Thursday

All the glitters...

I love this piece of a melted lion.
Fur and gold. My favourite.

"Ophelia" by Dutch artists Afke Golsteijn, Ruben Taneja and Floris Bakker

Tuesday

Adopt a duck day.

We all love it when animals adopt other animals and raise them as their own (lets try and forget "monkey loves frog") so why not in the world of taxidermy.

Monday

Action stations.

Seeing animals doing what they do best in live action is wonderous.
Cant afford a safari?
Just buy some Action-dermy it lasts for ever.


Is it me or does that duck look like it's having a massive wee?

Friday

Relax it's Friday.

Take a tip from this awesome racoon and relax.
Never have I seen a more placid and tranquil dead animal.

Thursday

Where's my Mum?

It's all going to be ok Bambi I found her.
This shows that you really can have a beautiful piece experty made.

Wednesday

Its White Cat Wednesday.

Now a regular feature.

When purchasing taxidermy consider how beautiful your piece will seem when you suddenly wake in the middle of the night.

Tuesday

Batteries not included.

Want to keep the kids quiet this Christmas Day?
Why not try this.

I wonder what's in the box?

Monday

Handy hanger

As a spectacle wearer I often missplace them.
Now when I think "Where are those damn things?"
I always remember "Of cause, On the bobcat."

Friday

Super being.

What if a mouse could swim like a duck?
I dont have a clue but this one looks like its on holiday about to go scuba diving.
"Flippers? Check. Now where is my snorkol?"

Thursday

I just dont have the space.

Q:What do you do when you don't have the room for a whole piece of taxidermy?
A:Just have part of it.


Friends forever.

Loved pets become like friends and when friends die we want to remember them.
However it is frowned upon to stuff your dead friends but its fine to keep a pet by your side forever...no matter how big they are.

Wednesday

More white cats...

Again a white cat has come to my attention.
The awesome Lindsey Wixson for Barneys Fall 2010 Catalogue by Walter Pfeiffer shoot has everything.
High fashion, white cats, awesome interiors and taxidermy.
See the entire piece here.

Thursday

M.A.R.T.

We all love a random association.
Like minded people getting together and creating a place where they can share their love for a certain thing or subject.

I love The Minnesota Association of Rogue Taxidermists or MART for short.

They say they are " a veritable rout dedicated to a shared mandate to advocate the showmanship of curiosities"

Basically they are a group of taxidemist and artists who make awesome, sometimes grewsome pieces of randomness. Brilliant.

Zombie Squirrel

Lets start off with a bang!
Whilst trawling ebay I found this "interesting" piece.
Its by Dead Animal Art and they have a varied and equally macarbe collection of other items for sale.
