The cat's name is Rocky, btw. His brother Solo comes out looking altogether more demonic. #caturday #flir

@sunpig Great idea. Next time our cat disappears somewhere in the house I'll just go out and rent a FLIR.

@sunpig That’s one hot cat!! 😁

@futurebird@sauropods.win 2026-03-21 10:16
@sunpig I really want one to look at ant colonies and see how they manage heat. Despite not being "warm blooded" they find ways to make their nests warm in winter and cooler in summer.

@coldclimate@hachyderm.io 2026-03-21 10:19
@sunpig ohhh, where did you rent one from?

@sunpig @catnip You win Caturday!

@sunpig I always knew they were fiery demons with glowing eyes.

@limes@infosec.exchange 2026-03-21 11:05
@sunpig Now I want to rent a FLIR too!

@simonzerafa@infosec.exchange 2026-03-21 11:35
@sunpig Wow! Win 🙂👍

@MulticlassGeek@mas.to 2026-03-21 11:38
@sunpig I borrowed one from my library!
-
@ln@social.linux.pizza 2026-03-21 11:44
@sunpig I borrowed one from a friend for the same reason this week. I found that you can see your reflection in the window in infrared! This shot is in full daylight, to the naked eye my reflection is nearly invisible

@foone@digipres.club 2026-03-21 11:55
@sunpig everyone I know (including me) who has ever gotten their hands on a FLIR camera had used it to photograph cats. It's just the thing to do!

@sunpig This is fabulous! 😍🥰

@sunpig Burning sun kitty

@Karen5Lund@mastodon.social 2026-03-21 12:31
@sunpig OK, #Caturday fans, you can go back to bed and sleep all day. This one wins. There is no competition. Just favorite and boost this warm kitty all day.

@drajt@fosstodon.org 2026-03-21 12:38
@sunpig if the cat walks away from you with its tail up you can see the spot with very little insulation on its rear... Children usually find this very funny.
-
@sen@hachyderm.io 2026-03-21 12:42
@sunpig @ireneista one of the first things I did when I got mine was take a thermal image of where my cat had been previously sleeping :D

@Sarahw@mastodon.green 2026-03-21 12:53
@sunpig This seems like wise use of this tool.
-
@richardinsandy@c.im 2026-03-21 13:18
@sunpig damn, I borrowed one of those a while back and didn’t think to try cat pics ! Most impressive.
-
@jerrej@mastodon.social 2026-03-21 13:36
@sunpig Your cat is leaking a lot of fluffy heat! You ought to get that looked into maybe.
-
@lhgmk2@mas.to 2026-03-21 13:49
@sunpig that cat is a surprisingly bad insulator.
-
@feyter@mastodon.gamedev.place 2026-03-21 13:56
@sunpig But it also reveals how good fure works... even in infrared cats are still kinda stealthy. PS: Also hot / cold water make vor an interesting motive in IR. Just capturing a different wavelength of light, reveals how much different realreality is from what we are used to think from everyday life.

@eryngium@universeodon.com 2026-03-21 14:01
@sunpig Haha I did the same thing. #caturday

@notthatdelta@furry.engineer 2026-03-21 14:06
@sunpig looking forward to the day when folks on the internet have imaged cats in the full electromagnetic spectrum. You've done IR imaging; I've seen X-ray images and of course lots of images in the 400-700nm range. But we can do better!
-
@Mimesatwork@wandering.shop 2026-03-21 14:06
@sunpig the cat is barely containing that super Saiyan energy
-
@Deixis9@beige.party 2026-03-21 14:21
@sunpig They also come with laser dots. Ideal for cat owners.
-
@guigsy@mstdn.social 2026-03-21 14:55
@sunpig I got a cheap IR camera from AliExpress. It isn't the resolution of a Flir, but it's good enough.
-
@CassandraVert@indieweb.social 2026-03-21 14:55
You should compare Flir notes with @ai6yr
-
@the_turtle@mastodon.sdf.org 2026-03-21 14:55
@sunpig that is very important.
-
@unattributed@gotosocial.social 2026-03-21 15:10
@sunpig@mastodon.scot This gives a whole new meaning to "Orange Cat".

@sunpig@mastodon.scot he's had his ready brek

@kims@mas.to 2026-03-21 15:31
@sunpig@mastodon.scot Is this representative of the Rule 34 for thermal imaging, or Rule 34 for cat photos?
-
@thibaultmol@en.osm.town 2026-03-21 16:19
@sunpig@mastodon.scot one of those smartphone FLIR adapters and took a picture of my cat three years ago as all
-
@count_01@mastodon.social 2026-03-21 16:36
@sunpig@mastodon.scot A lot of heat escaping from that cat. Someone should check the R factor of cat fur.
-
@gloriouscow@oldbytes.space 2026-03-21 17:03
@sunpig@mastodon.scot First thing I did with mine, of course.
