REPORT: Cat Regrets Finger Lick

An area cat named Jenny is being treated this afternoon for a mild case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after licking a wayward finger earlier today.

According to sources on the scene, the kitten licked a finger that was held out to her and then immediately regretted the decision.

“Well, the finger was attached to a hand that had been chopping onions and garlic, so it was a little pungent,” said Karen Regan, a source close to the situation. “After Jenny licked it, she made a funny face and then realized her mistake and started to hyperventilate. We rushed he to the hospital.”

Hospital officials tell The Fluffington Post that the cat is resting easy and will be discharged tomorrow.

‘Vanity Fair’ Photo Essay Goes Behind Kitty Presidency

A new spread in Vanity Fair captures the presidency of Lance the cat with a never-before-seen raw emotion.

“Lance hasn’t let any other outside photographers into his inner sanctum since being elected in November,” said Vanity Fair editor Miley Phillips. “We were given exclusive access to document his first 100 days. We were able to capture some of the most emotional periods during this time, as Lance tries to turn around the kitty economy and sign a last peace treaty with the dogs.”

The photos, three of which are previewed above, appear in this month’s edition of the magazine.

Local Cat Fools Everyone With Stick-On Mustache

According to multiple reports, everyone was fooled by notorious cat prankster Curly on Wednesday.

“We really shouldn’t have fallen for it,” said prank victim Will Streitfeld. “I mean, everyone knows Curly doesn’t have a mustache. So why we all thought he’d somehow grown such an impressive ‘stache overnight is beyond me. But, as usual with that cat’s pranks, we fell for it hook, line and sinker.”

It is now clear that Curly’s mustache was actually a stick-on cardboard cut out, and not a legit set of whiskers.
