Somewhere around 3 or 4 in the morning, at the deepest point of my R.E.M. sleep, my orange tabby insists on jumping into the bed, meowing incessantly, as he plots to claw my eyeballs out. Now I’ve got a whole different way for a cat to freak me out and jar me awake from my slumber.

Cat Head Alarm Clock

The Multi Color Magic Cat clock displays the current time and date inside a pair of glowing LCD eyeballs. As it gazes into your eyes with a strange numeric stare, it fiendishly plots to wake you from your sleep with its glowing multi-colored skull and one of the most irritating alarm beeps this side of the french fry timer at McDonald’s.

I suppose if you’re a really big cat fanatic, you might want one of these oddball alarm clocks by the side of your bed, but for me, I’ve got enough feline troubles. You can find the Magic Cat alarm clock over on eBay for $18 bucks.

Mine came yesterday. Funny the photographs (here and on eBay) don’t show it is a full cat standing on a round platform, tail in the air, out-stretched arms. It stands 7 1/4″ (18.5cm) tall and 4 1/4″ (11cm) wide. Also if you get one, the Month / Day setting is DD/MM. It drove me nuts trying to get what I thought was the day to go past 12.

Yeah, unless you watched the video, the photos only show the cat’s head.

And that is what I get for not editing my comment from boingboing before including it here.
