Cats may get nine lives, but not quite like this.

A Dutch artist, upset over losing his beloved pet, Orville, had the animal stuffed and transformed its body into a remote-controlled helicopter, Sky News reported Monday.

The “half cat, half machine” piece of art was dubbed the “Orvillecopter.” The cat, who was killed when it was hit by a car, was named after famed American aviator Orville Wright.

“After a period of mourning, he received his propellers posthumously,” Jansen said.

I think authorities should keep an eye on this jerk.

The dead cat is SICK...but not a crime.... but I wonder what else this jerk does to amuse himself?

I agree that what he did to his cat is quite unusual..But he is an 'artist', quote, and I don't think he is a serial killer in the making or anything like that. At least he gets to keep his cat forever thru taxidermy.

It is documented that the BEST early indicator in in serial and psycho killers.. is their cruelty to animals as a child.

ART MY ARSE!!!

This guy is a sick jerk.

Yes, I totally agree about animal torture and killing being an early indicator of serial killers..But this guy didn't kill or torture as far as I can see. His cat got hit by a car, and now he gets to fly forever. We can agree to disagree here. It wasn't in good taste, but hardly psycho.

Yes Ok.

Don't lock the bastard up for this.... but keep an eye on him
