Kevin Pereira of G4′s Attack of the Show solicited contributors to a Keyboard Cat-themed art show and auction. Proceeds will go to the no-kill cat rescue shelter Kitten Rescue in Los Angeles:

In July, G4 sponsored an art competition, asking amateurs and pros alike to come up with their best masterpiece based on Fatso and his song. After selecting 18 winners, the network turned the works over to Kitten Rescue, who’s auctioning them on eBay this month to raise money for their animal rescue efforts. Ranging from New Yorker-inspired covers to Warhol-esque shots, the works of art are definitely unique – and adorable!

    Entry #11 is rather interpretive. Like it!

    This is real art because it has cats, unlike a tinfoil ball that was pulled out of a dumpster.

    Whether or not you agree with cats playing instruments, it is still art and the people that created this art put time and effort into it. So i think it is noteworthy.

    No it isn’t. It’s just like modern art- Not art at all. So qui twith the fuckin’ cats.

    By that logic, any old 3 year olds art is noteworthy. He spent time and effort on it. But it still ends up looking like crap.

    Thanks for your support. The auction has been a great success. The money will be used to save cats from euthanasia!

    Thanks, Sarah! Some of us will never get over the cats, since they rule and all.
