Area Kitten Can’t Seem to Get Dry

A kitten named Ollie has used 10 towels in an effort to dry himself after a recent bath.

“He just keeps rolling around in them,” says Jamie Mahr, a source close to the situation. “But always emerges wet. He’s not really up to speed on this whole towel thing yet.”

Cat Concerned About European Debt Crisis

A cat named Piru has expressed some serious worry about the debt crisis in Europe – particulalry in Greece – and how it will impact the global economy.

“Is austerity really the answer? What about banking regulation?” asks Jim Danowski, a close friend. “These are the things that keep Piru up at night.”

But other sources close to the situation aren’t so sure.

“I think people read too much into him,” says Jenna Gold. “He’s a Scottish fold. He always looks a little worried about something.”

Cat Astounds World With Scrabble Play

A cat from Inglewood, NJ has shocked the board game playing world by showing an aptitude for the popular word game Scrabble.  

“I mean, as a Scrabble player, she’s pretty mediocre,” said Inglewood Scrabble Player’s Club president Skeeter Brinkman.  "Words like CAT and DOG aren’t going to get you very many points. But she’s a cat, you know?  It’s pretty impressive that she can spell at all.“
