Feline Pick­-Up Artist Shares Romantic Insights on New Blog

By Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

Are you having trouble meeting that special someone? Do you get so nervous on dates that you forget how to talk? If so, then you need the help of renowned pick­-up artist Whiskers, who just launched a new blog to talk about his romantic escapades.

Whiskers, who claims to have perfected the ultimate dating technique, will be sharing a mix of personal anecdotes and professional advice.

“It was amazing,” protege Elliot Grishom said, who attended one of Whiskers’ in-­person seminars. “Every single woman he meets falls head over heels. Within five minutes they’re rubbing his belly and scratching under his chin. He’s a master.”

Home Theater Setup Proves Too Much for Local Cat

Home Theater Setup Proves Too Much for Local Cat

By Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

San Diego kitten Gingersnap considers himself quite the cinephile. Not only does he host regular movie nights for his fellow film buffs, but he also writes a blog for one of the local papers about the latest shows he’s seen.

Friends close to Gingersnap say his lifelong dream has been to have a top-­of­the­-line home theater system. After years of saving, he’s finally ready to make that dream a reality. Unfortunately, while Gingersnap does have extensive knowledge of film, he appears to have no understanding of how to set up his new technology.

Neighbor Lisa Wilkinson told The Fluffington Post that she had popped by to see if she could lend a hand, but quickly retreated after seeing how frustrated Gingersnap had become.

“There were wires everywhere, and he was a little orange whirlwind trying different combinations of red and black wires, but nothing was working. He was really agitated and hissing, so I let him be.” Wilkinson paused, then whispered, “I think he forgot to plug in the power cable.”

Kitten Can’t Wait for Owner to Catch Up on ‘Game of Thrones’

Kitten Can’t Wait for Owner to Catch Up on ‘Game of Thrones’

Louie the cat is a voracious reader and a huge Game of Thrones fan. He’s on all the fan forums every day, he role plays on IRC and he even dabbles in writing his own fan fiction. But outside of the Internet, he doesn’t really have anyone to share his fandom with.

“He’s pretty far ahead of me,” said roommate Van Cardoza, “and he really wants to talk about it without worrying about spoilers, so he’s kind of annoyed that I read so slow.”

According to Cardoza, Louie has taken to intently staring at him and re-reading passages over his shoulder.

“It’s not helping at all,” said Cardoza, who snapped the above pic to document the cat’s habit for Reddit. “I think it actually makes me read slower. And I mean, I’m already on book five and it’s 1,000 pages. Cut me some slack.”

Plus, the way George R.R. Martin writes, it could still be a good thirty or forty years before we get book six. Cardoza should have plenty of time.

Feuding Cat Brothers Divide Couch Down the Middle

Feuding Cat Brothers Divide Couch Down the Middle

Hans and Frans, feline twin brothers from the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY, have been feuding practically since birth. 

“You know that special bond that most twins have?” said close family friend Malik Carpenter. “Yeah, they don’t have that.”

The cats have tried to find common ground and, with the help of the nearby United Nations, have convened no less than three peace summits. But friends says that living in a tiny, 400 square foot studio apartment has made progress difficult.

Then, unexpectedly, there was a breakthrough last month, and the two have been living under the terms of a tensely negotiated truce. Things have reportedly been much more peaceful.

“The main thing,” explained Carpenter, “is that they found a way to pretty evenly divide the apartment. There was some dispute over the kitchen territory, but they decided to make that an international zone and worked out a clever rotating access schedule that seems keep everyone happy. Yeah, we had to buy an extra litter box, but I think it’s for the best.”
