In one of the few good stories this week, the hoity-toity bar and hotel Chateau Marmont is threatening a cat grooming service with a lawsuit for making an adorable pun.
Last week, the honorary mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska—a very distinguished cat by the name of Stubbs—passed away. Stubbs, age 20, took his leave peacefully on Thursday night, after settling down to sleep.
Master director David Lynch is not one for explaining himself. He doesn’t do things like director’s commentary on DVD/Blu-ray releases, and he never offers very much by way of interpretation of his frequently (and to fans, exhilaratingly) confounding body of work. In an age of over-sharing, it is refreshing that…
I love my cats and my cats love me and now science has finally validated our love.
“A cat meowing at your feet, looking up at you is life smiling at you,” says a man toward the end of Ceyda Torun’s new documentary Kedi. And who could argue? The doc examines the communal raising of street cats through seven very different feline subjects, among them Sarı, a mother who spends her days hustling for…
I went to the set of this year’s annual Puppy Bowl, and I made sure to bring a camera. The more I type, the more you’ll have to scroll past to see the baby animals, so I’ll cut that shit out.
Ollie the bobcat has escaped.
In the back of meow-st tabloids you’ll find full-purr-ge ads for “collectibles” sold by companies like Franklin Mint and Bradford Exchange. These are collectibles in the sense that, yes, they (like literally anything) can technically be collected, but not in the sense that collecting them is a rewarding…
Having allowed this small feline to live in my home gratis for approximately three and a half years and countless dollars (including a rather expensive facial surgery), the appreciation I have lately received is nothing less than a constant stream of baying and mewls sunup to sundown, with the added bonus of having to…
The trailer for this cat documentary Kedi, about street cats in Istanbul, truly warmed my heart. I hate to be smarmy and predict that watching it will make you emotional, too, but it will. And you will love it.
The year 2016 has been an ice cream sundae of realized horrors, topped off by a human that actually looks like a cherry if that cherry was radioactive and run over by a convertible. A lot of fears that used to feel outlandish suddenly seem pretty plausible: apocalyptic climate change, nuclear war, fascism, close-up…
Great news for those whose obsession with New York socialite Jocelyn Wildenstein has yet to abate (hello, you are my people): She’s more catlike than ever. The 76-year-old former NYC tabloid staple, who spent a rumored $4 million on plastic surgery in service of creating a feline appearance to please her now-dead…
After getting his internet privileges taken away by the Ecuadorian government in October, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is evidently bored. Currently in exile from the United States and facing rape charges in Europe, without internet, Assange has found a better way to pass the time: playing dress-up with his kitty…
Occasionally—like, a lot—I sit around and consider what it might be like to own a dozen similar looking cats that instinctually get in formation around their daily activities, whether it’s eating, napping, licking or staring blankly into a camera. Lo and behold, this Instagram account exists.
Attention cat-lovers and those who merely tolerate them: cat scratch fever is real and just like the CDC’s strident warnings about kissing chickens, they would also like you to watch it around Señor Fluffyface and his sharp little claws.
Mister Fusterbuster Fluffykins might sit on his majestic butt all day, basking in whatever sunbeams you have made available to suit his needs, but his ancestors traveled quite a distance so he could wake you at 6 a.m, yowling for Fancy Feast.
“Wyd...,” North West thought to herself, while surrounded by frightening, tall-sized kids dressed like humongous cats at the revival of Cats, a Broadway musical (starring Leona Lewis) that Auntie Kourtney drug North along to so she could experience the Arts firsthand even though all she wanted to do was eat an…
Cats are all over the London Tube. Judging you.
In this picture from the Associated Press, a Persian cat owned by Arthur Newman of Jersey City demonstrates her ability to hypnotize women, discovered accidentally when a young lady passed out while staring into the feline’s eyes while petting her. This is just one story I would have clicked on in 1945, but there are…
When we aggregate, we seek to bring something new to a story. But there are times when an Omaha man finds a bunch of pot brownies, eats them, gets what a reasonable person would term “too high,” uses reprehensible language towards his cat, and crashes headlong into the stuff of local news headline-legend.
