Heil-o kitty losing by a nose

This adorable little kitty has a black mark against her.

The playful 6-week-old puss, who was found abandoned and near death on a road in Britain, wants nothing more than to be adopted by a loving family -- but can't find a home because she bears a freaky feline resemblance to Adolf Hitler.

The black patch under her nose looks so much like the Nazi dictator's mustache that staffers at the Wood Green animal shelter in Godmanchester have nicknamed her "Kitler."

"We re-home five and a half thousand animals every year, but we cannot find a loving owner for Kitler," The Telegraph of London quoted animal-shelter spokeswoman Tara Dundon as saying.

"We think her unusual markings are putting people off." ....

1. Who wouldn't want to adopt that little sweetie?

Anyone who would pass up a kitty who has markings that are no fault of her own is a complete idiot.

2. There is an entire web site dedicated to cats that look like Hitler.

3. Yeah, I heard Graham NORTON say that. And Ellen said the internet

was invented as a venue for "more cat videos." I'm a dog person, but being in the DU Lounge makes some things obligatory. Like Happy Hours and football.

4. Give me a break. If someone had not named it Kitler,

no one would have seen the resemblance. That is just one cute little kitteh, and her story should be enough to get her adopted. Who can pass on the "found abandoned and near death on a road" story!

6. Yeah

that alone should do it.

When I think of Hitler, I do not picture 4 paws, a tail, and a purr machine onboard.

5. What a gorgeous little sweetheart

8. Sieg heil little furry muffin.

9. I would have adopted that little kitty in a second

If a cat that looks like Hitler can't keep your other cats in line, there's no hope for the other cats. Besides, look at that sweet little face.

10. Poor little thing. Still cute even though.

11. Yo quiero Kitler Bell?

12. That poor kitteh.

Because of Hitler, men can't sport a particular type of 'stache now and forever. It's not the kitteh's fault that she has one. I see that she's in England; I wonder if there's more sensitivity to Hitler over there, since they experience him the way they did. She's adorable! There's a Hitler cat that lives next door to me.
