  • Support Obvious EV for Cruikshank and probably the only way to have a picture for Urination#Urination_without_facilities without grossing anyone out. Great restoration too. I feel dirty saying this, but I love this picture! Makeemlighter (talk) 01:32, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per above. I think we need to add "humor value" to our criteria. That alone could promote this one. I especially enjoy how that cat is looking at the woman in total disgust. ~ Wadester16 (talk) 22:34, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. I think that we have a new April 1 frontrunner, given that User:Howcheng has stated that this FP would not be considered for main page status, even on April 1. Spikebrennan (talk) 13:56, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, this one would be pretty much out of the running for exactly the same reasons... howcheng {chat} 17:41, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per Makeemlighter. Seems quite good quality considering the age. Fletcher (talk) 17:12, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Obvious support reminds me of the quentin blake illustrations in roald dahl's books --Thanks, Hadseys 01:13, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. If I were the cat I'd be offended too. Amphy (talk) 06:43, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
