The Crazy Cat Man of 5th Avenue


Last week I was walking down 5th Ave, when I had one of those "Only In NY, Where the Heck is My Camera When I Need It" moments. A (crazy) guy was walking towards me holding a cat on top of his head, mumbling something unintelligible. I froze at first, but eventually fumbled through my purse for my camera. By then it was too late...The man had walked too far in the opposite direction, and in order to capture that moment on film, I would have to chase after him...And did I really want to chase after a man walking down Fifth Avenue holding a cat on his head? Who knew what this man was capable of!? I continued walking away from crazy cat man, knowing I could use my gift of conveying life through stick figure to portray the events of that day. See above!

  1. Are you sure it was the guy wearing a cat hat? Did you ever consider that it could be a cat wearing a guy shoe?

  4. IMPORTANT UPDATE: according to my friend Justine, "It is for the best that you didn't take a picture. That's actually his schtick. He poses for pictures and then harasses the heck out whomever took the photo for $1.00. It's crazy and almost abusive... so I am glad you didn't get sucked into his nonsense! Crazy stuff!"
