Local Cat Wins 53rd Annual Pinata Tournament

Held every year in Guadalajara, Mexico, the World Pinata Championship brings seasoned stuffers and whackers from all over the globe. The tournament pits 50 brackets of competitors in one-on-one duels, whittling away the competition until a final match determines the ultimate victor.

“This year, it was a cat from Boston,” says Esteban Gutierrez, a referee who has officiated the tournament for 11 years. “His name is Benny, and he’s the 53rd champion. It was a great show.”

It was a hard-fought victory – Benny bested a number of previous champions to attain the title.

“As soon as he won the final round, he dove right in for the candy,” says Gutierrez. “It was … well, let’s just say it was an interesting photo op.”

‘Yep, Right There,’ Says Cat

By Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

According to sources, Izzy the cat is currently in the throes of an exceptionally satisfying scratch session. The cat’s owner tells The Fluffington Post that it happened largely by accident, but seems to really be working. 

“I just started scratching him underneath his chin,” says Phil LaBute, showing the patented scratch. “That was about four hours ago. I’m no cat expert, but I’d say he likes it.”

Others seem to agree.

“Oh yeah, he definitely likes it,” says cat expert Mark Brunault. “He’s purring pretty loud – that means he’s a happy kitty. That guy should not stop doing that.”

Russian Computer Maker Accidentally Ships Cats Instead of PCs

Russian appliance manufacturer Bork‘s first foray into producing computer equipment for consumers has not gone well. The company shipped its first batch of its new line of Windows 8 laptops earlier this week, only to discover that they’d accidentally packed the laptop boxes with cats instead of computers.

“Its embarrassing for our company,” Bork spokesman Alexander Navka told Russian news television channel RT. “We’re working very hard to make sure every customer who received a cat instead of a computer can exchange it free of charge, if they want.”

Navka said the company is still investigating to figure out how this mix-up could have happened.
