Okay. The following Best of Craigslist ad for the giving away of a box of wacky cat hats will not stay out of our inboxes and RSS feeds. Despite the ad's initial February posting date, the adorable cat hats -- and their accompanying sad story -- have reached "viral" status as the photos are still forwarded around several months later. I think it's safe to assume that the hats have already found a humble home. I want to know: where did the hats end up? And more importantly, can I see photos of the other 11 hats? The full ad:



Carton of Irregular Cat Hats
Date: 2008-02-07, 11:01AM PST

Hello. I have a big box of used cat and kitten hats that I have collected over the years for various occasions. As of recently my cat, Snowman, is no longer living and thus I am forced to get rid of these precious memories. I would not feel right asking money for them so I am offering the whole box for free. There are many styles from formal to cute and funny.

There is a variety of 14 different hats total. I just hope you and your pet can find as much joy in these hats as me and Snowman once did.

E-mail me if you are interested and I will give you my address where you can pick them up. I can also arrange for a free delivery if you are not too far away.

Thank you, Patty
Make the jump for the full photos. Rest in peace, Snowman. If only my furry love muffin were so patient (I try).
