Overstock.com Announces Kitty Packaging Now 100% Recyclable

Internet retailer Overstock.com has announced that all cats purchased on its site after June 1, will be shipped using 100% recyclable and biodegradable shipping and packing materials.  "The environment is very important to us,“ said Overstock spokesperson Linda Hammonton.  "We know that when people shop for cats at Overstock.com they not only care about price, but they also care about their effect on the world around them.  That’s why we’ve committed to making our kitty sales department carbon neutral by 2014.”

That’s a much more ambitious plan than the industry-wide “Kittyoto Accord,” signed by 143 Internet retailers last year, which called for a 50% reduction in carbon output for cat sales by 2015.

4 Out of 5 Interior Designers Prefer Cats to Shag Carpet

A survey conducted by Better Homes and Gardens finds that if cost was not a factor, 80% of interior decorators would incorporate cats over shag carpeting in their designs.

“At the end of the day, carpet is lifeless,” says Frederick Murray, designer and host of HGTV’s Flip This Cat. “With cats, you bring that plushness into the space, but it’s dynamic. One day they’re on the floor, the next day they’re in your armoire. It keeps things fresh.”

A cat named Jack from Leeds, UK is stuck in the ’90s. While everyone else on earth has moved on from the popular ’90s Budweiser beer commercials, Jack insists on saying “Whassuuuuuuup?!” every chance he gets.

“It’s seriously not funny anymore,” says Ron Tillman, Jack’s longtime roommate. “It hasn’t been funny in 12 years. I really need to move out.”

It’s a little known fact about cloud leopards that each one has a tickle spot – an area on their body that when tickled can completely incapacitate the giant cat. In the video above, representatives from the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma, WA demonstrate on a cub this non-lethal and completely humane way to absolutely delight these majestic beasts.
