There is a lot of extreme breeding but this is not an example. This is the result of simple photoshopping. I wanted to see if it was as easy as I thought it would be and it was.

I chose a photo by Helmi of a cat that already had a very long neck. The longest I had seen as it happens. I created three portions and spliced them together then concealed the joins by cloning (copying an unblemished part and placing that across the defective part) and publishing at a lowish resolution. Here are the parts:

This handsome cat illustrates a page on the different head shapes of cats. The peculiar part of this exercise is that I think this cat has the world’s longest neck without photoshopping πŸ˜‰

  1. I just hope no one ever does try to create a giraffe cat, I wouldn’t put it past some crazy money hungry breeder to try πŸ™

  2. A new breed of cat, a giraffe cat, poor thing. That old saying “The camera doesn’t lie” is….a lie”

  3. Michael you have proved that “PHOTOGRAPHS” do lie ! A fantastic photo that could have created a debate if you didn’t have to confess about the authenticity. Now we realize that there are a lot of “FAKES” on the Internet and hence authentication is very important.Any person can post a article, photo, etc on the internet anonymously or under a fictitious name.Hence knowing the “SOURCE” of the article or news is very important .

  4. This scared the heck out of me.
    The original is freaky enough.
    But, your photoshop really put me in the zone.
