Reports from the living room indicate that that new wall-to-wall carpet, which was controversially installed late last week, has won over at least one rabid supporter. According to eyewitnesses, Theo the cat, previously a vocal opponent of the carpet improvement project, has changed his tune.

“He led the charge against the carpet,” said Tony Lanza, a spokesman for the local construction worker’s union, which supported the project. “He wasn’t in favor of the one cent yarn tax increase that’s being used to pay for the infrastructure bond.”

According to Lanza and others, Theo has changed his tune.

“He’s spent the entire weekend with his face down in the carpet,” said Lanza. “He apparently didn’t know about the new carpet smell, or I think he would have supported the project all along.”

After their demo was rejected by every label in New York, all kitten pop music group ‘Meow 5′ took to social media to try to find an audience. And it’s worked.

The group gained attention earlier this summer when their YouTube covers of The Cure’s “The Love Cats,” and “Cat’s in the Cradle,” by Harry Chapin were posted to Reddit’s r/CatMusic community. The tracks have together attracted over 2.5 million views.

Now the group has been invited to perform at the Life is Beautiful festival in Las Vegas this weekend – somewhat hilariously, they’ll be taking the stage immediately before Snoop Dogg.

“It’s been a whirlwind,” says the group’s manager, Anna-Marie Castro, who has been with the kittens since they were born to her cat, Twinkles, in May. “I mean, I knew they’d do well on Instagram and Pinterest, but when I found out they could sing I had no idea what to expect. Certainly not this.”

The group is working on an album of original material, set to drop at the beginning of 2016.
