‘Morkie of the Month Club’ Raises Second Round of Funding

Want an adorable Morkie pup delivered to your door at the beginning of every month? There’s a website for that.

The Morkie of the Month Club has closed a second round of venture funding, raising just north of $2 million.

“We feel very confident that the market can sustain subscription services for Morkie buckets,” says Kurt Lant, co-founder of MotMC. “Our investors feel the same way, and we look forward to building a profitable business.”

While the company has yet to show positive revenue, industry analysts are optimistic.

“Market research clearly shows that people want buckets full of puppies delivered to their door,” says Hugh Capell of the Gartner Group. “The demand is there. A savvy company could fill that niche, no problem.”

Veganism Harder Than Anticipated for Cat

Veganism Harder Than Anticipated for Cat

By Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

According to sources, Barry the cat is finding his newly adapted vegan diet much more difficult than expected. Always a health-conscious kitty, Barry is said to have taken the plunge sometime last week. Since then, it’s been a decidedly uphill battle.

“He really had no idea what he was getting into,” says Greg McCabe, a friend.  "I think he just assumed there’d be plenty of vegan cat food products readily available. Boy, was he wrong.“

Despite having to subsist on "mostly grass,” the cat is reported to have no apparent plans of quitting.

“He has a lot of pride,” says McCabe. “He’s not going to admit it was a bad decision. But he’ll come around. Eventually.”
