Cats should not in theory be allowed in the kitchen, but for these unlucky kitties it is the only place they should be.

This first kitty has literally been stabbed in the back to turn it into a [kitschy kitchen must-have](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kikkoman-x-hello-kitty).

This feature is not alone, however, as the second and third images show how cats' bums have been turned into magnets and towel holders to find their way into people's homes. These are so bad that they are good!
