icanhascheezburger family of sites: unoriginal, mindless work done by other people, made better with watermarks, ads, and now extended youtube title screens.

How To Clean A Cat
1. Thoroughly clean the toilet.
2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet water, and have both lids lifted.
3. Obtain the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
4. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids.
Note: You may need to stand on the lid so that he cannot escape.
CAUTION: Do not get any part of your body too close to the edge, as his paws will be reaching out for any surface they can find.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power wash and rinse" which is quite effective.
6. Have someone to open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no people between the toilet and the outside door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The now-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself.
Sincerely,
the Dog

Wasn't Ebaum's World all material taken from other sites and just re-hosted, with watermarks? People might be stealing images for ICHCb, but at least they're trying to add some humor (even if the humor doesn't work for everyone).
But long intros, and the EIGHT other sites, seem to be dredging the corners of the internet for any possible humor and/or revenue. When I saw ROFLrazzi, I was sad, because I had imagined that ICHCb was focused on the pure and simple humor of cute animals in odd situations with added wacky captions, like this one.

The cat in #8 has a distinctly Dwight Shrute-like quality to him that I just can't quite put my finger on.

These sites are mildly amusing, but I realized that they were just ebaum's world in slightly nicer packaging (as in, no one has found an Baum-level asshole behind them to focus on yet).
Science! has it, as has been pointed out.

I see by your profile you like to post light-hearted amusing links, mostly about cats.
Now, I love cats, but only in person. Not on the internet. Metafilter is not for cat links. Please post to Fark in the future. Or cat.com or something.

Ebaum's World sucks for their rampant plagiarism, i.e. not crediting original creators.
icanhascheezburger otoh uses a simple captioning engine which records & displays separately the photo source and the caption source, much like mefi posts & comments. Yes, classics & images often say they "donno source", but that admission suffices by web standards. Yes, the watermarks are lame & lack bibliographic info, but hey.

Photos of cats need captions in order to make up for cats' utter lack of personality.
