If you’re not watching the gutsy crime drama HUMMERCATZ, then you haven’t lived. It’s the story of a rag-tag team of cats who broke out of the pound, stole a HUMMER limousine, and play by their own rules.
This publication covered the show’s early episodes. It is now fortunate enough to be featured in Episode 5, “Back to the Pound.”
Watch it above, and be sure to subscribe to the HUMMERCATZ YouTube channel so you never miss any of the action.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder on the Rise Among Dogs
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the vainest of them all? Dogs, that’s who.
According to a new study from York University in Toronto, Canada, dogs are exhibiting 57% more narcissistic behaviors as a species then they were ten years ago.
“We think social media is an enabler and a root cause here,” said researcher Tom Anderson, no relation to the founder of MySpace. “You have this constant stream of canines telling each other how great they are, which just reinforces their narcissistic tendencies. We’ve seen the same thing in humans.”

Guinea Pig Wins iPhone Photography Award
High-end photo sharing site 500px has announced the winners of its first-ever iPhone Photography Contest. The winner in the photojournalism category was Carabelle, a guinea pig, for her series documenting living conditions insider her cage.
How did a guinea pig manage to win such a prestigious award?
“Well, let’s be clear here. Carabelle won in the guinea pig division,” said 500px communications director, Jennifer Lee. “There were only like 3 entries. Most guinea pigs have no idea how to use an iPhone camera. In retrospect, it was kind of silly for us to have an entire section of the contest for them.”
