As we all know, cats can seamlessly shift between two forms as needed. Solid and liquid. A cat's liquid form is usually seen when a cat wants to clamber into a non-cat shaped vessel, or alternatively when the cat wants to crawl under a space that most ignorant onlookers would write off as ‘too small for a cat’.
Despite this being common knowledge, more often than not in art and media, cats are portrayed in their solid form. But Shohei Hatakeyama is a figure maker who likes to celebrate the many strange forms that animals can come in. We’ve written about him before and his quest to recreate weird and wonderful meme pictures as high-quality 3D figures.
His latest figures are perfect for summer, representing a cat that has been beaten by the heat and looks like it’s slowly melting into liquid state.

Although the figures were made with a funny concept in mind, there's an impressive level of detail and realism on display, which only serves to make them even more surreal.

Fans of liquid cats are out of luck though, the figures aren't currently for sale, they will just join the figure maker's bizarre menagerie of meme animals.
