YES. This cat's name is Orville. As in, Orville Wright, one half of the famous Wright brothers.

But that's where the Wright ends, because the rest of this story is just so wrong.

You see, Orville the cat is dead. He was unfortunately run over by a car.

Yet instead of being peacefully laid to rest, Orville became the centrepiece in his owner's art project.

Dutchman Bart Jansen contrived the "half cat, half machine" artistic tribute you see before you: a flying, dead, cat, radio-controlled, helicopter.

The resulting Orvillecopter has been put on display at the Kunstrai art festival in Amsterdam. So, if, like, taxonomy and aviation are your thing, make sure you get along.

Jansen says, in describing the Orvillecopter: "after a period of mourning he received his propellers posthumously".

"Oh how he loved birds. He will receive more powerful engines and larger props for his birthday. So this hopping will soon change into steady flight."

That's sweet.
