Happy Birthday, Maru! - Neatorama

(YouTube link)

I just found out that Maru, the Japanese Scottish Fold who took the internet by storm, is turning three years old today. That means he was quite young when we first featured him on Neatorama. Here is a compilation video for the occasion. -via I Am Bored

Nope, Maru is 3!

...yeah I was going to say something about the age. If Neatorama posted the first Maru video in 2008, then he's definitely not turning one today.

Well, duh. Sorry about that... I blame my poor eyesight. Corrected.

I at first saw 2009, but looking really hard, it says 2007.

I was able to purchase the awesome book "I am Maru" through Maru's website and so according to his book....his date of birth is May 24, 2007.

I love reading Maru's blog every day. Bu the thing that makes me wonder the most is how does his human keep their residence so unbelievably clean?? :)

Saffron-I've always wondered that about her! The Japanese couple that lives across the hall from me is exactly the same way o_O I know in Tokyo people have very little space to live as it is, so keeping it clean maximizes the available area, but outside of Tokyo, I dunno.

Yeah, I think it's a Japanese thing. I follow a photographer w/ 5-6 cats on flickr, and I swear you could eat off those floors!

I <3 Maru.

This is another obsession I don't get.

Who's obsessed? That's a word that gets thrown around too much. Maru is a Friend to us all, and that's about it. Aside from my Maru Altar I've constructed in my basement.

Maru is not a Scottish Fold. He is a silver tabby.
