When I searched for web references to the Rap Cat, I only end up with FL sources.

YouTube - Rap Cat

I can't get the "Meow-meow meow meow-meow meow-meow" off my head

If anyone has a mp3 (or other sound file of this) please post it. I've been looking for one for a while.

We have those ads in Missouri as well, but here Checker's is known as Rally's.

They are somewhat funny once, on TV... but nothing I would ever remember or seek out.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

All you have to do is play the YOU TUBE version while recording it with WIRE TAP, then you can edit and copy the meow part, pasting it over back to back so it seems longer, in Final Cut or iMovie. Personally I want to be in a business meeting and have someone call me while I'm using it as a RING TONE. Yeah or maybe in a church or wedding and leave the ringer on really LOUD. If you are really good at editing you can even put in record scratching at intervals or break a MEOW in half and have it go-

ME-ME-ME-ME-MEOW at certain intervals. You can really hop up this song if you are creative. Garage band comes to mind.

I will try this and hope to hear from others with their versions. Maybe start a RAP CAT thread where you can link to and copy what others have come up with. Or just use this thread.

WOW...it worked! First I recorded the Rap Cat song when it got to that part on the You-Tube commercial using an old version of WIRE TAP which was free. Next I edited in Final Cut Express but you should be able to do it in iMovie also. Next I downloaded the free trial software from here:

Create Ringtone :: Overview :: Make Your Own Free Ringtones and Wallpapers

You need text messaging to have it work. Next I tried to load it as an MP3 but since I had a Sprint A-900 phone it would not work, so I notice the .QCP format option and when I clicked on that tab the Sprint logo showed up under it. I downloaded my Meow song to their server and they sent a text message. I clicked on options, then "GO" on my phone and they downloaded my file as a ringtone to my Sprint phone. I am so happy it works! Create-ringtone software is a free trial software. So this cost no money at all.

Checkers looks exactly like a Rally's. Weird.
