Vintage Cat Toys Are Not to Be Played With

Give most cats a toy (or crumpled up piece of paper) and they’ll bat it around the room for hours.  But not so for Franny, a kitten from Queens, NY.  Franny is the proud owner of one of the largest vintage cat toy collections in the five boroughs.

“They just don’t make toys like that anymore,” said close friend Annibel Torres.  "The craftsmanship, the coloring, the lead paint –  okay, maybe not so much the lead paint.  But you just don’t find toys with that quality these days.“

However, those toys are to be enjoyed from afar; they’re not to be played with.  "Franny doesn’t really let anyone touch her collection,” confirmed Torres.  "You can look at them on the shelf all day long, but try to play with that Incredible Hulk figurine and she’ll claw your eyes out.“

Kitten Finishes Doctoral Thesis

After nearly three straight months of work, Jack the kitten has put the finishing touches on his doctoral thesis. The paper explores the relationship between socio-economic status and overall health, and will be reviewed by professors at Princeton University this fall.

“He just crashed as soon as he finished it,” says Cody Brinks, a friend. “I told him not to have all those energy drinks, but he wouldn’t listen.”
