In honor of OITNB season 2 starting today, The Pet Collective reimagined the Netflix original series with costumed cats. Tabby is the New Cat is a feline-featuring interpretation of Orange is the New Black.
The lead role of Piper is played by appropriately by an orange tabby cat, who narrates the video. The Pet Collective remake follows the same general storyline as the original, just with cats and kitten-related puns. Piper complains about building laser pointers without thumbs, but even that small joy was taken from her. Other tabby cats play cast members like Alex, Red and Crazy Eyes.
As The Pet Collective has covered a number of movies and television programs, it will be interesting to see if they cover anything further of OITNB season 2.
