Experts: 3D Cat Printing Will Be a Reality Within 5 Years
Experts: 3D Cat Printing Will Be a Reality Within 5 Years
3D printing is poised to revolutionize commerce and creativity. Pick out a pair of shoes online and watch them materialize from your printer within an hour. Housewares, clothing, toys – even 3D printed food is now within the reach of consumers.
But printing living things? It may be closer than you think.
“Cats have a unique physiology that lends them to printing,” says technology expert Ray Corey. “Need a new cat? Just pull up some cat customization software, hit the print button, and bam. I’m confident this kind of tech will be in every home by the year 2017.”

Dog Demands Funnies Section
Dog Demands Funnies Section
A tie up in the kitchen this morning caused considerable delays in getting to work, and now word is coming through that the culprit was the dog.
“She wouldn’t budge until someone gave her a copy of the comics,” said one eye witness. "She already had the sports and business sections, so she was just being greedy.“
According to reports, the standoff lasted a full 20 minutes until the funny pages could be found, and by that time the coffee had gone cold. Brewing another pot added an additional 10-15 minutes to this morning’s commute. Earlier this month the dog caused a similar delay after allegedly knocking an entire bowl of kibble on the floor. She is due in living room court this Saturday to answer a summons for that incident.
There has been no word yet on any possible punishment being meted out for this morning’s debacle, though police say no arrest is likely forthcoming.

Local Pup Tries in Vain to Beat Summer Heat
Local Pup Tries in Vain to Beat Summer Heat
As August rolls on, at least one area canine is ready for fall. Lennox, a local Boxer puppy, has had it with the summer heat. He’s tried everything to cool off – visits to the local public pool, bacon-flavored popsicles, sleeping in the nude – and nothing has worked. Recently, he even invested a large chunk of her savings in acquiring an enormous floor fan.
“He’s taken to just parking himself in front of the fan and not moving all day,” said friend and roommate Andrea Horton. "But it’s no use. He’s still miserable. This heat wave can’t break soon enough.“
