I didn't see this posted and almost certain it would be. It is the creepiest thing I've ever seen.

Many animal lovers find it hard to part with their pets when they die.
So when cat Orville, named after the famous aviator Orville Wright, was run over by a car, his artist owner decided to turn him into a permanent piece of artwork as the ultimate tribute by transforming him into a flying helicopter.
Dutch artist Bart Jansen first stuffed Orville before teaming up with radio control helicopter flyer Arjen Beltman to build a specially-designed flying mechanism to attach to the cat.

When his mom passes on I hope that he taxidermies her into an aircraft carrier to launch his cat-copter from.

Ah, I see the problem, now. Several of you have your family pets confused with your parents and/or children.

Naw, weird is weird man. It is one thing to have a trophy such as what you displayed, it is another to have your cat stuffed in a manner that it appears asleep for sentimental purposes, it is something else entirely to have your beloved pet skinned and it's pelt stretched out over a helicopter frame so you can fly it around.

hehe I started giggling when I got to the last sentence. But seriously that is Jeffry Dahmer crazy.

Yes. One of those is evidence of mental issues and an inability to deal with loss. The other is a cool remote-controlled toy.

Not to mention an awesome Halloween decoration. It's not just zombie cat, it's flying zombie cat!

You don't see a problem with a quad copter that is incapable of flight? I know I'm not the greatest engineer ever, but c'mon brah. /snark

This would be merely weird, not disturbing, if it wren't for the prevalence of other gruesome events in recent news.

It looks better in still pictures than photos. In stills, it looks like a creepy cat. When it starts to lift off and doesn't quite make it, it just looks kind of cartoonish.
