Meet Orville: The flying, dead, stuffed, cat
YES. This cat's name is Orville. As in, Orville Wright, one half of the famous Wright brothers.
But that's where the Wright ends, because the rest of this story is just so wrong.
You see, Orville the cat is dead. He was unfortunately run over by a car.
Yet instead of being peacefully laid to rest, Orville became the centrepiece in his owner's art project.
Dutchman Bart Jansen contrived the "half cat, half machine" artistic tribute you see before you: a flying, dead, cat, radio-controlled, helicopter.
The resulting Orvillecopter has been put on display at the Kunstrai art festival in Amsterdam. So, if, like, taxonomy and aviation are your thing, make sure you get along.

To summarized:
- Take a already dead cat (got run over by a car)
- Stuff the cat
- Put a motor and copter blades on the cat
I find this more funny than morbid.
The only thing the cat is missing is laser-pointed eyes.

I think of myself as more important than a cat. I hope the rest of us feel the same way.

not amused at all. I find my pets too precious to turn them into fucking art projects or experiments

Most people feel this way unfortunately.
They don't realize their lives are as unimportant as it really is while deeming other creatures to be of lesser value.

So should we give plants and animals equal rights as humans? Do you really think of yourself as being of same (or less) worth as a paramecium?

Find someone who has a fear of flying cats invading the world and fly this at them.

I think of other people not as more important than a cat.
