Buried Treasure Cats Found Near San Diego

Two chests containing rare kitties were discovered just outside a San Diego, CA suburb on Tuesday.

“I was just wandering along with my cat detector,” says Huey Charles, a creepy unemployed guy who searches for buried cats every morning. “It started beeping, so I started digging!”

Local historians descended on the dig soon after, and most agree the cats date back to the mid 1800s.

“If they’re pre-Civil War, the pair is likely worth millions,” say Jonathan Gold of the San Diego Cat Heritage Museum. “If they date to 1866 or later, they’re much more common, but they’d still do well at auction.”

SURVEY: 86% of Americans Think Cats Are Weirdos

The latest Pew Research survey finds that a whopping 86% of American adults think cats are strange.

“We found most people are disturbed by their odd sense of comfort,” explains Linda Cornish, who led the study. “Cats squeeze into tiny containers or sleep in an upside-down ball and still seem as snug as ever. What’s up with that?”
