Why can't we have a kitten emoticon?

The Tardis is back I see Hmm

Considering that cats play such an important part in all our lives, I can't understand why we haven't got a cat/kitten emoticon.

I think you need to remember not all our lives (and I prefer cats any day, but have been without one for close on 2 years after having cats for over 45 years)...

Also that you'd get dog and rabbit and owners also wanting theirs...

Because we're not all six year old girls.

What Vest said.

NetHuns probably has one though.

Eh? Cats are in no way important to my life, don't like the buggers at all.

You're all in denial. Cats are very important. I'm not asking for a pink, glittery one, just a cat.

But what would a cat symbolise? Would it be for 'catty' comments?

Thanks for the idea, we'll have a conflab personally I'd like a dragon emoticon but I can't see that happening and get back to you.

Happy New Year

LeMousquetaireAnonyme · 31/12/2013 18:04

It has to be a dragon or a viper
you already have the Bear , you can use it as a kitten! With enough sparkly it does look like a kitten...
happy new year

HappTeeNewYear · 31/12/2013 18:08

The Tardis is temporary.

What Vest said about the kitten idea.

I vote dragon.

Didn't we have one of those once?

HappTeeNewYear · 31/12/2013 18:08

Oh and lose the Bear which isn't even on the list!

But dragons aren't even real, neither is the Tardis Shock

Neither are kitties.

We've been meaning to tell you, hidden.

Well, this week I would like a "dammit that cat crapped in the house button "!

Cat has taken offense at number of Xmas visitors, it would seem, and deserted his usually clean cat habit.

FrankelInFoal · 31/12/2013 18:35

There have been calls for a [kitten] ever since Pinot's thread and that must have been about 2 years ago now.

TheWomanTheyCallJayne · 31/12/2013 18:36

I would back a viper emoticon.
