The Hilarious 'Meowbook' Parody is a Play on Facebook
Jennifer Gosnell — June 15, 2012 — Pop Culture
Cat lovers rejoice: the 'Meowbook' social network has finally been thought of. Skipping the middle man of the human, cats can connect cat-to-cat online. Though Meowbook is unfortunately only a hilarious parody, the ad is done exceedingly well.
Founder Thomas Mai argues that cats need a social network because, unlike dogs, they do not have the ability to go out and meet up with others. Also as a safe zone free from "cat-on-cat violence," Meowbook looks to connect your kitty friend with other kitty friends.
The hilarious video may dig a little too deep into the intentions of cats (example: see toast frame in video), but people have already begun giving their cats Facebook pages. Who's to say that Meowbook won't eventually become a reality?
