Corgi Takes a Stand Against ‘No Dogs’ Policy

Corgi Takes a Stand Against ‘No Dogs’ Policy

A corgi named Max has lodged a protest against the city of Nelson, British Columbia for its flagrant discrimination against dogs.

“These street markings are unacceptable,” says Ted Farro, a spokesperson for the disgruntled pup, referring to the ‘No Dogs’ signs painted on city sidewalks. “It’s a public street, and dogs have the same right as anyone to be there. You don’t see any ‘No Cats’ signs around here, do you?”

Max has organized a sit-in to protest the city policy. Police are holding off for now in the hope he will give up his cause. That’s unlikely, according to people who know Max.

“He’s very determined,” says friend Jerri Boso. “He’s been known to sit for hours – days, if need be.”

Toronto Cat Confronts Pigeon Nemesis

Toronto Cat Confronts Pigeon Nemesis

A 3-year-old cat named Brooklyn has been waiting patiently by the window of a downtown Toronto condo in anticipation of his arch rival, a pigeon named Hank.

“Brooklyn has gone to great lengths to intercept Hank,” says Jamie Geers, a source close to the situation. “There was some phone hacking involved. Let’s just say he knew exactly which window to stalk, and the right time.”

The beef between the two is unclear, though The Fluffington Post has learned of rumors about an ex-girlfriend and a borrowed game of Trivial Pursuit.

Boston Terrier Born Without a Body

Boston Terrier Born Without a Body

In what scientists are calling “some totally crazy s**t,” a torso-less Boston terrier has been discovered in Quebec, Canada. The adorable pup is all head and feet – no abdomen or limbs to speak of.

“Not sure how this little guy is still alive,” says Burt Korman, a geneticist with Harvard Medical School. “Where does he keep his internal organs? How does he move around? Does he just waddle?”

But not everyone in the scientific community is convinced of this genetic miracle. “It’s quite obviously the perspective in the photo that makes him appear this way,” says Nita Lintner, an actual scientist. “You people are pretty dumb.”

Cat Determined to Celebrate July 4th All Week Long

A Baltimore, MD cat named Truman won’t settle for a one-day celebration of America’s founding.

“He started barbecuing on July 1st,” says Erica Dahmen, a neighbor. “Then there was the fireworks. And the music – John Philip Sousa, all day, all night.”

The patriotic cat is known about town for his week-long Independence Day celebrations, and the party is still going strong. This Saturday and Sunday promise to be full of summertime festivities in Truman’s back yard.
