Here is a selection of great posters and prints of cats and kittens.

In ancient times, cats were worshipped as gods. They have never forgotten this. ~ Terry Pratchett
I don't think that humans ever domesticated the cats, more likely the cats domesticated the humans. Cats have minds of their own and most of the times they do as they please and somehow we find that very pleasing. They also have turned 'being cute' into an art.

Take a picture of your cat, make your own posters.

If you have a camera and a cat, you could make you own posters or at least very large prints. Here are few tips on photographing your cat.
You might have come a cross of a guide to giving your cat a pill. Luckily, taking a photo of your cat is much easier.

Catch your Cat Napping
Nothing looks quite as relaxing as a cat taking a nap. Cats do that a lot, so if you take a picture of your cat napping, you have plenty of opportunity. You can take close-ups of your cat either as it sleeps, or gently wake your cat up for a relaxed look.

Natural Sunlight
When you think of a sleeping cat, where do most cats enjoy sleeping? In the sun of course, where it's nice and warm. Cats love that. If you have a window that gets full or filtered sunlight during the day, then try to open the curtains or blinds to encourage cap napping. As soon as you see your cat sit in the sun, try to take a few pictures. When the sunlight is good, try a few shots without using your flash. This will give your picture a nice natural glowing effect. In addition, natural light often works best anyway because if you use a bright flash, your cat will usually close his or her eyes or the eyes could end up looking red.

Forget Posing and Planning
You cannot really ask that a cat stay and sit. Everyone who has had a cat even for a little while, knows that these fellows pretty much do as they please and taking orders is not really what they are famous for. When you take pictures of your cat, you should always have your camera on hand for candid shots. Look at your cat during the day and determine your cat's schedule and favorite places. Work around your cat and you will get better pictures. Try to be spontaneous, and above all stay patient. It may take several tries to get a couple of great shots, but posing your cat rarely works.

Get Help
No, not that kind of help. Get someone to help you wiggle a string or the throw a ball, basically play with the cat while you take pictures. It is very difficult to try to play with your cat yourself while taking pictures at the same time. In addition, if you are trying to get a picture of your cat looking directly at your camera, have someone stand above you can call the cat's name, or make a noise that will prompt the cat to look directly above your head.

I think the best tip, however, is to always keep your camera handy and be spontaneous. Cats are so much fun to take pictures of because you never know what they will do.

No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.

It is impossible to keep a straight face in the presence of one or more kittens.
