This Week in the Future, September 12-16, 2011
SHARE

It’s been a cat-heavy week in the future, which is just the way we like it. This week’s Baarbarian illustration suggests a possible way Willow the long-distance housecat journeyed from his home in Colorado to PopSci’s hometown, New York City, and that’s how we’ll believe it happened until proven otherwise.

Want to win this feline-focused Baarbarian illustration on a t-shirt? It’s easy! The rules: Follow us on Twitter (we’re @PopSci) and retweet our This Week in the Future tweet. One of those lucky retweeters will be chosen to receive a custom T-shirt with this week’s Baarbarian illustration on it, thus making the winner the envy of their friends, coworkers and everyone else with eyes. (Those who would rather not leave things to chance and just pony up some cash for the t-shirt can do that here.) The stories pictured herein:
