“and so I slept and then I walked around and then I slept again and then I saw a cobweb and OH FINE YES IT IS A SLOW NEWS DAY”
“HOORAY THE ATTIC IS OPEN awesome view from attic window PLUS I PROVIDE CREEPY CAT SHADOW IN TOP WINDOW wooooooooooo look out socks above”
These are just come of the inane tweets from @Sockington, a cat on Twitter that somehow managed to pass 500,000 folowers on Twitter on Friday. Oh joy.
Sockington (A.K.A. “Socks” and “Sockamillion”) also has his own website and a few members of the “Socks Army”, the cat’s “rabid” group of fans, are purchasing T-shirts with the cat’s tweets printed on them.
The pet’s owner, Jason Scott, is even doing interviews (below) and has been a featured speaker at events about the Twitter account.
OK, so Twitter is hot now. I get it.
But I really don’t get how a CAT snags half a million followers. Check, please. I’m outta’ here…
