Russian Computer Maker Accidentally Ships Cats Instead of PCs

Russian appliance manufacturer Bork‘s first foray into producing computer equipment for consumers has not gone well. The company shipped its first batch of its new line of Windows 8 laptops earlier this week, only to discover that they’d accidentally packed the laptop boxes with cats instead of computers.

“Its embarrassing for our company,” Bork spokesman Alexander Navka told Russian news television channel RT. “We’re working very hard to make sure every customer who received a cat instead of a computer can exchange it free of charge, if they want.”

Navka said the company is still investigating to figure out how this mix-up could have happened.

Elusive ‘Lion Maltese’ Spotted in the Wild

Hunted nearly to extinction for their prized and luxurious coats in the 1980s, rarely has a Lion Maltese been spotted in the wild during the past two decades. However, ornithologists in Borneo working on a story about Red-billed starlings for National Geographic, have reportedly spotted a pair of the ferocious pups.

The most fearsome of all Maltese dogs, the Lion Maltese is native to South East Asia. At their peak in the early part of the 20th century, it was estimated that there were some 140 million of the species in the world and their range extended as far South as Northern Australia.

Now that number is estimated to be in the mere thousands, with most in captivity, and the Lion Maltese is on the official endangered species list. 

“It was truly incredible to see one of these beasts in the wild,” said Martin Whitford, a photographer on the National Geographic team. “We should be doing everything we can to protect these majestic creatures.”

Bunnies Reenact ‘Jane Eyre’ Marriage Proposal

As part of a school project, two bunnies named Hildegard and Francis have reenacted the marriage proposal scene from Jane Eyre. Francis took on the role of Rochester, while Hildegard became Jane.

“It was magnificent,” said their teacher, Mrs. Fiegelson. “Hildegard was really able to communicate the distress Jane felt when she confessed her love for Rochester. A+ work.”

The bunnies are planning to work together on their next class project, this time about The Great Gatsby.
