PREVS: "Airplane Ears" Is Our New Favorite Cat Meme

That's the takeaway from THIS CAT IS P H O T O S H O P P E D, a wildly popular Facebook tag group with nearly 50,000 members.

Launched in 2019, the community encourages members to "post your bois who are primed for 'shoppin [and] share your babies who have been 'shopped."

Sifting through hundreds of daily submissions, a team of six volunteer admins surface the best of the bunch — think funny facial expressions or human-like poses, ideally with good contrast and lighting — that promptly get remixed and filtered through everything from movies and ...

... and art ...

... to memes and occasionally even the submission or comment that preceded it.

Like the original post themselves, the best 'shops on a thread will often attract hundreds of emoji reacts and equally effusive comments.

The skill level of the image hacking varies from amateurs giving it a go on free mobile phone apps to graphic artist professionals competing from home on $6,000 Mac workstations but that, the organizers note, is all part of what makes the group so fun and welcoming.

Enough with the chitter-chatter, tho: Bring on the kitteh 'Shops!
