Dutch Artist Bart Jansen Makes Helicopter from His Dead Cat

It's weird enough that some people have their pets stuffed. In fact, I've always found taxidermy in general to be just plain weird. This guy, however, takes the whole concept to a level I almost can't picture. Luckily, there's video for that!

Bart Jansen, a Dutch artist, decided that not only did he want his cat preserved after death, but also wanted it to have the gift of radio-controlled flight.

The kitty copter currently burning up the Internet is "half cat, half machine," Jansen said in a SkyNews interview. Orville the deceased cat, himself named for aviation pioneer Orville Wright, was hit by a car, Jansen said. “After a period of mourning, he received his propellers posthumously."
