Puppy in Tears Over Spilled Water
A puppy named Ghia was noticeably upset Monday morning when an aggressive dash to quench her thirst resulted in an upside-down water dish. The spill expanded a foot in diameter, maybe more, according to witnesses.

Cat Accidentally Shaves Off Half of Mustache
Area cat Stewart suffered a major embarrassment when he accidentally shaved off half of his mustache just minutes before he was scheduled to make a very public appearance in support of Hank, the politically-minded cat running for senate in Virginia.
“We tried to shave off the other side to even it out, but there was no time. They were already introducing him on stage,” said Stewart’s publicist, Jenn Harvey. "Why he was shaving right before he was due to speak at a rally, I’ll never know.“
Despite his silly outward appearance, political analysts say the event was extremely successful in raising support for Hank.

Cat Composer’s 7th Symphony Panned by Critics
Gustav is widely considered one of the 21st century’s pre-eminent feline composers. His “Ode to Yarn” and Symphonies One through Six are revered by critics and fans alike.
“His seventh left me feeling a little hollow,” says Hugh Jansky, music critic for The New York Times, who reviewed debut performance at Lincoln Center. “It just didn’t have the emotional gravity of the first six. I don’t know, maybe it was the cat choir that really ruined it for me.”
