Cat Tattoos Are on the Rise

A new report from the U.S. Department of Commerce indicates that new cat tattoo parlor openings are up 1100% over the past decade.  Advances in “fur tattoo” technology are thought to have spurred the growing interest among felines in body art.

“Fur tattoos used to be a dangerous and pricey process,” said tattoo artist Skeeter O’Hair, the owner of Whiskers & Ink in Brooklyn, NY.  "These days, though, it’s quite safe and much more accessible.“

According to O’Hair, business has been through the roof this year, and he’s actually hiring additional artists to meet demand.

Cat Named Ambassador to Mexico

By Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

In an unexpected diplomatic move, the U.S. State Department has announced its newest ambassador to Mexico – a cat named Henry.

In a prepared statement, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lauded the nomination:

“Henry will serve as a vital link between the United States and Mexico. His landmark work in dog/cat relations will ensure a continued productive dialogue with our neighbors to the south.”
