Would you believe if this guy made his dead cat into a working drone? Read the story here!
How would you feel about a device made from a real cat?
Horrified is not the accurate term for what I felt upon seeing the video of a dead cat turned to a flying cat drone. I don’t even know what to think the moment I saw the footage and is now stuck in my mind. We all have our unique way of mourning over the loss of a loved one, but using your dead cat to build a drone as a way of remembering its memories? I really have no words.
The Story of Orville, the Cat
Bart Jensen was an artist who happened to be Orville’s owner. After the cat’s passing, Jensen rose to fame when he did something no one has ever done before – he repurposed his cat’s body into a taxidermied drone.
Taxidermy is the way of preserving a dead animal’s body for study and display purposes. Jensen clearly has other things in mind. He stored Orville’s body in a freezer for months, trying to find someone – an engineer who is willing to build a drone out of his deceased cat’s body.
