Cats Claim Flower Pot by Eminent Domain

Two cats have laid claim to the flower pot on the front porch, claiming that the constitutional construct of eminent domain allows them legal right to seize the property.

“No. Definitely not,” said legal scholar Heidi Schiller, when asked if there was any legal merit to the cats’ position. “That’s not how eminent domain works. First of all, when you seize property in this way, you have to pay fair market value. It’s my understanding that the cats are just squatting and no transaction has taken place.

"Second, the land then has to be put to public use. I’ve seen no plans from these cats that indicate they intend to use the flower pot for anything other than napping. I fail to see how that benefits the public.

"Finally, and most importantly, eminent domain only applies to the government. So, no, this is totally illegal.”

It’s expected that the cats will be forced to vacate the flower pot by tomorrow, if they haven’t gotten bored and left on their own by then.

Cat Spends 40 Minutes Each Day on Exercise Bike

Mario, a cat from Green Falls, WI, has been trying for the past few months to lose a bit of holiday weight that he put on at the end of last year. According to friends, he’s been singularly dedicated to the task.

“I’ve never seen him so committed,” said one source close to the cat. “He’s basically cut out processed foods, he has a kale and goji berry smoothie every morning, and he’s even set up a gym in his basement.”

Friends report that Mario is seeing his weight tick down at a reasonable pace, but that he’s been frustrated by his workout routine.

“A trainer initially recommended spending some time on an exercise bike every day,” said the friend, “but Mario bought a top-of-the-line bike and sits on it daily. So far, though, it hasn’t had nearly as much effect as his healthy diet and daily walks.”
