Description Dr. Lychee is one of Kittyland's preeminent biologists, and here is her visual guide for identifying various types of marine kitty. (Not included is the kittensquid, or squitten, because I've already drawn her a lot--and will do so again!)

Obviously not drawn to scale.

Sooooo cute! I'd say my favourites are the basking kitty and kittypus.

I have to ask though.. what does the marine kitty's diet consist of??

foxysquid In reply to sokkaxsuki [2009-10-21 01:53:23 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!

My thought was that they eat the same as their real marine counterparts. So the basking kitty would eat zooplankton, and the narwhal kitty would eat fish. There are regular fish in the Kittyland Sea as well.

sokkaxsuki In reply to foxysquid [2009-10-22 00:47:43 +0000 UTC]

No problem!

A friend of mine is taking an Oceans course, and I have told her to do her project on the kittypus.
"Contrary to popular belief, the kittypus is not a half breed of the catfish and octopus. The kittypus is a rare breed of marine life, and cannt easily be classified. It is native to the South Pacific, and is rumored to be extinct, however, scientists are hoping to preserve the majesic creature..."

Yes, it looks pretty scary! Fortunately, it's harmless and just eats plankton and other small things. Still, I wouldn't hang around if one of them was nearby.

o_o I want a poster of that. Sea creatures are wondrous in their variety and weirdness and cats are adorable - best of both worlds. Jesus christ that is cute as hell.

There are a lot of best things that ever happened uploaded into your gallery, but this has just given them all some strong competition.

Loving the cuteness of every little kitty sea creature on here, you've combined two of my great loves. =3 The basking kitty made me giggle so much and the sunfish kitty really is very beautiful. I just can't get over the little disappearing head on the kitty coral it's so cute~ They're all amazing, can't pick a favourite!

Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it so much. It was a lot of fun picking which sea animals to kittify. The basking kitty probably made me laugh the most while I was drawing it.

HarmlessNihilism [2009-10-13 22:21:17 +0000 UTC]

I love this. Narwhal kitty is my favorite.

Tell me, does Kittyland's kitty-animals go into the land species as well, perhaps panda cats and ferrittens?

You have also made history: You made an Asian (much less one of the Japanese descent) NOT want to eat seafood. Kudos, my dear cat enthusiast.

Hm, you know, I hadn't thought about that! I know there are non-kitty animals in Kittyland (as well as regular fish), but there might be kittified versions of them, too.

Haha, and wow, I didn't even have that intention--I had no idea the marine kitties had such power!

I think Octo-kitty is my favorite. Because Kitty-pus just reminds me of tentacles and then THAT goes down a road kitties don't want to. 83.

Octokitty is the most clever of all the marine kitties (I mean, he has glasses, so he must be), so he has his ways! Probably he snuck them off a boat when no one was looking.

Basking kitty could probably fit Kittensquid or one of the others in its mouth quite comfortably XD
