There's something about photos from the era that make everyone look older than they are. I'd swear Merman was 2!

I thought so at first but if you zoom in you can see the first letter is an M.

Check the bottom. Either they typed the wrong letter or it's an effect of the picture being so low quality.

I can't seem to do it but somebody crosspost this to animalswithjobs@lemmy.world !

That smile. You rarely see that on photos from this time.

You probably know that they took it seriously. As it was not to be taken lightly. It was being on a podcast 10 years ago or TV 30. It happened, but only to those that did something that deserved it. They never imagined it would become what it has become.

Only one kitten?

Probably gave the rest away. Can't have 12 cats on a small ship.
