Did we discuss the cat birth photos that are currently going viral? You can see them HERE. My local news is actually talking about it. What do y'all think? Me? I think its weird, but to each their own. Glad to see they adopted a rescue cat.

Ummm... I like cats but no way would I be putting one of my cats anywhere like they do in those photos! Good advertising for the photographers for sure. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg) I'm lucky to get a photo of my cats even looking at me!! Corinne

Definitely not something I would do, but I also think this trend of human birth/newborn photo shoots is equally odd (and, if I'm being honest, painful to this fertility-troubled woman), so I get the commentary they are trying to make.

Admitting up front: I have not read any background articles and only looked at the pictures.
I think it's hilarious. It's odd (to me) if they're serious about the whole birthing thing, but if the couple is being silly, then I think it's a hoot.
Will have to get back to you if they're serious about the whole birthing thing...

I border on crazy cat lady. *Ahem* I mean, diligent feline enthusiast. But I thought those photos were flat-out weird. Creepy. No thanks.

Okay. Well. It does look like these folks are serious about the let's-birth-a-cat-into-our-family thing -- with a full photo spread! -- so I'm going to just go with, "Well, that's different."

I would laugh had her legs not been spread with the... cat...there. They could have done it like the movies where there's a sheet and I would have thought it was hilarious sattire. The breastfeeding was too much, too, imo.

Those poor people, murdered in their sleep by one extremely pissed off cat!
The pics of her 'pushing out' the cat make me want to slap her.

I’m a crazy cat (and dog) lady and I think it’s hilarious! It’s a riff on the way too tmi birth photo trend, imo. I have seen some pics on Facebook that just really should be only private, with births. I think these people have too.
Now I want to do this...but at 4 Cats and 3 dogs we are full up for a long while. Maybe I can do grandma photos for ,y oldest, she just adopted a dog😂

That's really a little weird. I think I have a good sense of humor and that's just...not my sense of humor.
But whatever floats your boat. I hope they enjoy the pics.

Would have been cute/funny if they’d stuck to just “newborn” shots and not full-on re-enacted the actual birth process.
I rate this photo series: 30% Hilarious/70% Cringe.

I am sure this couple is just trying to be funny with a parody of birth photos they have seen - I think if they wanted to do that for fun, for themselves - fine but to put it out there for the world - uh...a little odd in my opinion.

That is totally weird. I kept thinking about how much money they spent hiring a professional photographer to take these pics, but then I saw that they were bffs. Again, so weird!
