Can this be a shirt? :3
Comment by Shakomaru — April 1, 2012 @ 3:15 pm
You forgot about the new series on Cat Online Acatemy.
Also, I’d like to imagine that the blurb there at the bottom for “LoadingReadyRun MegaCorp Inc” is Commodore Hustle canon.

Is it weird that I’m hoping this is real?
Comment by Andy — April 1, 2012 @ 3:29 pm
Is MauBau planning on branching into the Licking sector anytime soon? I like the diverse portfolio, but more would be appreciated if I’m going to invest.

Real. Real. Real. Real. Real.

They raised about tree fiddy

Excuse me asking, but is it CatingCattyCats or CattingCattyCats?
Comment by MarkVI — April 1, 2012 @ 4:00 pm
So this is something about cats right?

Best April 1st Joke Ever!

MEROW!

this is amazing!
Comment by EkajArmstro — April 1, 2012 @ 4:12 pm
Thank you guys for something funny for April Fool’s Day! I HATE April Fool’s Day, but I knew you guys would pull something awesome out of it. I don’t hate this holiday quite as much now.
Also, this should be a T-shirt.

Yummies?!?
I have been a fan for a long time, this is perfect.

Comment by Mowinckel — April 1, 2012 @ 4:30 pm
Our new feline masters will bring us great content I’m sure.
When can we expect the next purr-cast?
Comment by DarkAbyssKeeper — April 1, 2012 @ 4:44 pm
Hey, who said we were “involved”?! I feel unrepresented under this new regime.

I, for one, welcome our new feline overlords.
Comment by Hugums — April 1, 2012 @ 5:24 pm
At last! I’ve been dreaming this day would come.
Comment by madrakthered — April 1, 2012 @ 5:28 pm
Now it’s official: LRR has sold out. So much for the art, eh? I’ts all about the money now, eh? Typical.
I am so dissapointed. Also, this is the worst day of my life. So much bad news.
Comment by Asdf — April 1, 2012 @ 5:44 pm
I want the CattingCattyCats logo t-shirt!!!
Comment by Sefiya — April 1, 2012 @ 7:11 pm
Yummies Corp. strikes again!
This would probably make a hilarious shirt.
Comment by Mallow — April 1, 2012 @ 7:17 pm
How could you do this to us so soon after the My Little Bear shirt? Now we’ll have to wait for like, ever to get this on a t-shirt!
Comment by Psyclone — April 1, 2012 @ 7:21 pm
APRIL FISH! (as they say in France)
Comment by Matthew — April 1, 2012 @ 7:32 pm
Bravo!
Comment by Lord Chrusher — April 1, 2012 @ 7:43 pm
For the t-shirt on the front you can have a crazy flow chat of all the companies. And on the back you can a big Kitty bear hugging the LRR logo going Hahahahaha! Meow!
Comment by MacPhal — April 1, 2012 @ 9:18 pm
16 fans? Yay, I’m a statistic!
Comment by Vanguard — April 1, 2012 @ 9:44 pm
Well, to be honest this isn’t such a great AFD prank, because I (and many others apparently) *want*this*to*be*real*.
I would watch the programming suggested by CattingCattyCats, and now I’m bummed it’s just a joke.
This is even worse than ThinkGeek’s prank “Creepies” marshmallow Minecraft Creepers (at least they give you the option of telling them “What prank? This needs to be REAL” when they take you to the “Ha-ha, April Fool’s!” page. *hint-hint*
Nonetheless, it’s hardly a surprise that LRR/Bionic Trousers/Yummies presents ANOTHER thing that is immediately appealing. Mad props for that! ^_^
Comment by empath — April 1, 2012 @ 10:05 pm
Awesome press release I must say! I love how Shanghai made it into the mix somehow.
Comment by MarkVI — April 1, 2012 @ 11:53 pm
This is hilarious. I will continue to love LRR and (almost) everything they create simply because they consistantly make me laugh. Oh, what an improved day.
Comment by williamthewise — April 2, 2012 @ 12:57 am
Is it bad that I was totally down for a LRR cat-site, until I realized what today is?
Comment by DuelLadyS — April 2, 2012 @ 1:30 am
Here, take my money dollars. The internet shall forever be cat-based.
Comment by MattAn — April 2, 2012 @ 1:51 am
I’m just happy to see Corporeal Hungry Whiskers pull through his previous bouts with diabetus, and to see him moving up in the corporate chain.
Comment by VanSlick — April 2, 2012 @ 2:55 am
You had me at “Megadodo”.
Comment by Mimm — April 2, 2012 @ 6:24 am
This is hilarious guys loved it, was going to say this would be a fun thing to see but “cat related content in areas beyond internet entertainment, such PORNOGRAPHY” oh dear also is you are owned by yummies you have not been showing them in a very good light.
Comment by Dando300 — April 2, 2012 @ 6:32 am
Just as I am currently wearing a LoadingReadyRun logo t-shirt, I would totally wear a CattingCattyCats logo t-shirt.
Comment by Invariel — April 2, 2012 @ 4:31 pm
Cattadore Hustle! lol
Comment by Rob Beaumont — April 2, 2012 @ 5:02 pm
So is that second phone number that goes to Corporal HungryWhiskers real?
Comment by Jake — April 2, 2012 @ 5:22 pm
Nope. But that is China’s country code.
Comment by Kathleen — April 2, 2012 @ 7:05 pm
I wonder if they’ll use some of the money to get a high speed camera to film more of The Daily Pounce.
Comment by Matthew Geer — April 2, 2012 @ 11:06 pm
A whole article related to CATS Inc, and absolutely no reference to “All Your Base Are Belong To Us”? I am appalled! 😉 (Unless the takeover of the DOGS HQ is a very subtle reference to it.)
By the way, LRR smartphone apps would be awesome. 🙂
Also, you guys had me at “Cat Kingdom” 😀
Comment by Michael Moore — April 2, 2012 @ 11:38 pm
T-shirt please 🙂
Seriously, you need to take my money…
