Someone please tell me this is a joke site

I came across a website promoting body modification for pets i.e. Bonsai Kittens. It's surely a big hoax, to give instructions on how to seal very young kittens into large glass jars (apparently it's easy when their bones are still soft and malleable), but geez - there are some weird people out there...

That had BETTER be a joke site! If it's for real, I'm going to kick the crap out of that guy and stuff him in a vase! I noticed that the phone number was a 212 number, which is the most common area code here in Manhattan.

Anyway, I'm going to believe that it's a joke site, afterall, wouldn't some animal right's group have nailed his ass by now if it was for real?

Happy New Year!

It probably is a joke, but what a twisted imagination this guy must have...

Thankfully, it is a hoax:

Well that's a relief! I didn't think to look in the museum of hoaxes; it's a great website isn't it?
