French Cat Existentialist



Cannes, France - - Winner of Wet Cannes Award Describes His Ennui

Henri Deux (2) describes his melancholy in this touching short film that is receiving raves in the art film circuit.

Many years ago, Henri was at the height of his fame - with his visage immortalized in the famous Tournée du Chat Noir poster. These days though, Henri sadly languishes in an apartment - tormented by his past and by his other roomies; a dim white cat, two oblivious budgies and a grey rat.

"I wake to the same tedium" Henri says heartbreakingly, "Immortalized on the wall, forgotten on the floor."

Too Much Milk Causes Cat's Tail to Shrink!

got milk cat with no tail


Des Moines, IL - - New Study shows too much milk causes cats' tails to shrink!

This picture says it all. "It's not that Tiger's tail was ever a tail to write home about. It wasn't particularly bushy or long. It was just an ordinary tail," says Emma, "But when milk started to be an addiction, his tail definitely started to shrink and shrink until there was nothing left, not even a nub." She adds "It doesn't seem to bother him much. He hasn't stopped drinking milk."

Pocket Gopher Moves into Monrovia

William the Cat and Gopher Hole



Monrovia, CA- - William the Cat Discovers a Gopher in the Backyard

Last week, a pesky pocket gopher known for his year long destruction of a neighbor's front lawn has decided to change digs and moved into our backyard.

William, a grey striped kitty with white feet was the first to notice this new intruder who is digging up our grass and under out rose bushes. There would be great concern about the future of the spring garden if there wasn't William's laser, cat-like focus and dedication to monitor the gopher's activities.

Even today, during the rain, William stared at the gopher hole for the entire morning, coming inside only for a little respite before going back to his post.

There is great hope that the gopher will come to a feline end. Otherwise the Rodenator may be in order.
