Yeah, i don't understand posting something as word-centric as this without showing us what it actually says. It's a very cute idea, i'd just like to see either the words shaped like a piece of cheese or like a cat.

Cats are classified as obligate carnivores, because their physiology is geared toward efficient processing of meat, and lacks efficient processes for digesting plant matter. The cat cannot produce its own taurine (an essential organic acid) in its own body and as it is contained in flesh, the cat must eat flesh to survive (see Taurine and cats). Similarly as with its teeth, a cat's digestive tract has become specialized over time to suit meat eating, having shortened in length only to those segments of intestine best able to break down proteins and fats from animal flesh.[27] This trait severely limits the cat's ability to properly digest, metabolize, and absorb plant-derived nutrients, as well as certain fatty acids. For example, taurine is scarce in plants but abundant in meats. It is a key amino sulfonic acid for eye health in cats. Taurine deficiency can cause a condition called macular degeneration wherein the cat's retina slowly degenerates, eventually causing irreversible blindness.

A cat eating a house mouseDespite the cat's meat-oriented physiology, it is still quite common for a cat to supplement its carnivorous diet with small amounts of grass, leaves, shrubs, houseplants, or other plant matter. One theory suggests this behavior helps cats regurgitate if their digestion is upset; another is that it introduces fiber or trace minerals into the diet. In this context, caution is recommended for cat owners because some houseplants are harmful to cats. etc

I wish you wouldn't have put at the bottom CAT HISTORY.

I like the shirt otherwise.

I'm a language buff, so I love the concept.

Cat's should evolve the ability to drink Red Bull.

I feel if you want to keep Cat History, you may want to change the text to something more history based instead of having the biological implications that a cat has. Otherwise, good. :)

I feel like you'd have to stop and stare at someone wearing this shirt for an uncomfortably long time to get it.

Yeah this is clever but it does require a close inspection. Mayne try some other cat items instead of text?
