Local Kitten Dispels Rumors He’s an Otter
Local Kitten Dispels Rumors He’s an Otter
As if being abandoned in a rose garden wasn’t hard enough, Ollie the Kitten has faced a number of accusations that he is in fact an otter.
“These rumors are baseless,” said Ollie’s publicist at a press conference Thursday afternoon. “When the blogs get wind of something, they hammer it until everyone thinks it’s so. The fact is, Ollie is 100% kitten. We have the birth certificate.”

20-Pound Cat Has Fallen and She Can’t Get Up
A cat named Vegas took a spill Thursday evening and spent the entire night on her back.
“I found her Friday morning just laying there,” her roommate Amie Hart tells The Fluffington Post. “She seemed fine – just too lazy to move.”
Vegas remained sprawled out for most of the morning until it came time for breakfast. “I had to call my boyfriend to help me roll her over,” says Hart of the 20-pound feline. “She didn’t seem embarrassed. She went right for the Fancy Feast, like nothing even happened.”

Cat Culinary Prodigy Is a Whiz in the Kitchen
Yuma the cat may only have paws, but she is a culinary wunderkind. Though only 4 years old, the talented feline has already been shortlisted for a James Beard Rising Star award and has apprenticed at some of the best restaurants in both Europe and America.
“She’s incredible,” said Alistair Gross, Chef de cuisine at Savoureux in New York City, where Yuma spent last summer as an apprentice saucier. "Sure the Béchamel sometimes had a little fur in it, but she could do things with an immersion blender that take most chefs years to master.“
Yuma’s goal is to open a Michelin starred restaurant in her hometown of Boston, where there are currently no eateries thus rated.

Kitten Is Nervous About First Day of Work
Kitten Is Nervous About First Day of Work
Tomorrow is the first day on the job for Calcifer, a kitten from Melbourne, Australia. Calcifer has been unemployed for five months and recently landed a job as an executive assistant at a large insurance firm downtown.
“On the one hand, his favorite sandwich place is right around the block from the office, so he’s psyched about that,” said roommate Joel Brown. "On the other hand, it’s been awhile since he was part of the rat race. He’s a little nervous about acclimating to the whole nine to five thing. He set like six alarms on his iPhone for tomorrow morning.“
