An inside joke using an invented, child-like, animal language and techno-jargon, lolspeak has become a written genre specific to the internet.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOL_Cats http://www.jimmyr.com/blog/Best_of_LOL_Cats_2_228_2007.php
Many lolcat images capture cats or other animals performing characteristically human actions or using modern technology, such as computers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOL_Cats
These images usually consist of a photo of an animal with a caption which generally acts as a speech balloon encompassing a comment from the cat; or as a description of the depicted scene. The caption is intentionally written with deviations from standard English spelling and syntax,featuring strangely-conjugated verbs and a tendency to converge to a new set of rules in spelling and grammar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOL_Cats
There are parallels between the language used in lolcats and baby talk, which some owners of cats often use when talking to them.The superimposed text is usually assumed to be uttered by the cat in the photograph. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOL_Cats
An lolcat is an image combining a photograph, most frequently of a cat, with a humorous caption in lolspeak. • The first recorded use of the term lolcat is attributed to an anonymous internet site, occurring sometime around 2005 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOL_Cats The History of Lolcats
Some trace the lolcats back to the site 4chan, which features bizarre cat pictures on Saturdays, or 'Caturdays'."
