A yellow housecat in blue overalls (and whiskers) brandishes an oversized golden disc against an abstract curving purple background.

Mistigram:

thegreenherring drew this #ANSIart tribute to the unnamed feline potagonist of Konami's 1988 arcade game #KittenKaboodle for our new cat-themed MIST0725 artpack collection.

MIST0725/LOCKJA-ASCII_CATURDAY_08

A housecat, totally consumed by its earth-moving efforts, obliviously kicks errant grains of litter out of its box.

Mistigram: happy #Caturday! This is another one of Lockja's weekly #ASCIIart celebrations of the feline, from the sacred to the profane. This piece, a species of summer trip to the beach, was included in the new #cat-themed MIST0725 artpack collection.

A hunting-crazed domestic cat, eyes gleaming ferally, presents a deceased mouse dangling from their maw

Mistigram: here we are, #InternationalCatDay and ... I'm late for lunch! Fortunately, Mozz has packed along a little something extra to share. This #ASCIIart illustration was included in the new cat-themed MIST0725 artpack collection.

MIST0725/US-STIMPY

Mistigram: searching his memory for celebrated cats of the early '90s, contemporary to the Golden Age of the underground computer artscene, Cthulu surfaced with this repulsive specimen. Joy! From the feverish mind of cancelled Spümcø animator #JohnK, it's Stimpson J. Cat from #RenAndStimpy, celebrating his favorite brand of cat litter #GrittyKitty! This #ANSIart screen was included in the new cat-themed MIST0725 artpack collection.

MIST0725/LITTLEBITSPACE-CAT_CAT

A picture of a housecat is drawn in white against a black background using punctuation marks and slashes.

Mistigram: in unixlikes, the command 'cat' outputs the contents of a file to the screen. In this case the file was a (#PETSCII) #ASCIIart illustration of a cat, so the artist

littlebitspace needed to 'cat cat'. This recursive piece was included in the new cat-themed MIST0725 artpack.

MIST0725/NI-OR-FX

Two housecats with keen curiosity and perky whiskers, the nearer with grey fur, in front of one with a more orange colouration, crowd their faces out of the darkness into a grey viewing frame. They are named as Orion and Felix.

Mistigram: judging from their enthusiastic mustering, these bright-eyed characters, Nitron's buddies Orion and Felix, must have just heard their song being played on the wet food can opener. This #ANSIart group portrait was included in the new, cat-themed MIST0725 artpack collection.

MIST0625/LITTLEBITSPACE-CASTLEHEAD

framed in the darkness by small architectural elements, pieces of rooftops, walls, doorways and hedges are artfully arranged to depict what might be characterised as the skull of a town golem.

Mistigram: you may recall our sharing of

littlebitspace's "Castle Kit" font a bit over a week ago. As it turns out, castles are not the only thing you can draw in #textmode with its collection of remapped #PETSCII glyphs, and I rather suspect that drawing a #skull is the artist's personal "Hello World" for any new creative environment. From the recent unthemed MIST0625 artpack collection, we give you: Castlehead.

MIST0625/ZII-SHCA

A red-eyed white cat(girl) with bangs stares in surprise

Mistigram: this big-eyed #ANSIart feline is #Shampoo, a cursed Amazon, from a 1994 installment of Rumiko Takahashi's #Ranma 1/2 manga. It was drawn by Zeus II, apparently for use as a BBS logoff screen, and was included in last month's unthemed MIST0625 artpack collection. I hope you like cats, because there are a lot more on their way!

MIST0625/MC_FRESHER-TEXTMODE_MISTIGRIS

In the blackness, short purple letters read TEXT MODE... beneath them, against thin purple lines, chunky, cursive letters spell the word mistigris in white.

Mistigram: this is an alternate, pointier, version of a Unicode #textmode promo [Bad username or site: mc @ fresher] kindly drew for us in last month's unthemed MIST0625 artpack collection, riffing off the name and logo of the '80s reality TV precursor #UnsolvedMysteries for some oldschool flavour!
