[Cat man](http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_365440.html). Impressive in person. Not as wacky as you’d think. Willing to answer questions. Nice guy. And still a bloody freak. Still, he’s happy and harms no one, so so mote it be. Esprix ---

It would be a lot cooler if either of them actually ended up looking feline. He looks… uh… well ok he looks rather stupid\*. She looks like a burn victim. Looking like a cat could be cool… neither of these people has acheived anything close to that, however. \*JMO and I realize he is happy with the way he looks, and more power to him. ---

> [@](#): > > “When I have the coat of a tiger, I feel I will have reached my goal in life.” Ah… Priceless. But I’d love to see him at the age of 80… Or what is that in cat years? ---

Heh, and you didn’t meet him in person - I did. It was the metal studs in his upper lip that squicked me the most, really. I suppose that’s where he sticks in the whiskers. And how he keeps those nails so long is beyond me. Esprix ---

Catman was on a tv programme shown over here - about people who had altered body images, and the lengths that they went to to obtain their “ideal.” If I recall correctly, his childhood was not a pleasant experience. Perhaps there is a link to that? Who knows. For most of those that were featured, I just ended up feeling quite sad for them.
