In late 2012 when Fredriksen was still a student, he began dabbling with Photoshop and started creating his whimsical animal hybrids for fun and to take a break from exams. He began by morphing a guinea pig with all types of animals to gain Photoshop experience.
2. Felinguin
Fredriksen’s work became increasingly popular, so he continued creating his animal hybrids in 2013. Although he took a break from his hobby for several years while pursuing his career, he returned to creating the hilarious images.

Fredriksen admits that his technique for creating his animal hybrids is relatively spontaneous. He simply finds an animal he likes and tries to create a mix that looks natural.
