Crafty Cat Makes Toys Out of Own Fur

Bored with standard pet store amusements, 3-year-old Toronto kitty Bruce Lee Wong has taken a DIY approach to filling up his toy box.

Using his very own fur, Wong lovingly crafts paw-made barnyard animals and balls that he can play with later. The process involves an intricate cross-stitch that makes the fur toys soft, yet durable.

The toys have become so popular among Wong’s family and friends that the enterprising cat has launched an Etsy shop. Nearly 400 units have been sold since mid February, and Lee has plans to hire an assistant in April.

Local Cat Does Not Enjoy Scary Movies

Socks, a cat from Hastings, NE (no relation to the late White House pet), does not like horror movies.  "Every time a scary scene comes on, he’ll cover up his eyes with his paws until it’s over,“ says a source close to the situation.  

Apparently this has been going on for months, and frankly, Socks would really enjoy a good romantic comedy.

Sailor Cat to Enter Volvo Ocean Race

Captain Tungsten, a sailing cat from Newport, RI, has made known his intention to enter the Volvo Ocean Race (formerly the Whitbread Round the World Race).   Next year’s race, which takes 9 months to complete, will begin in October in Spain and end in Ireland in July 2013.

When asked by reporters if he was nervous about the grueling trek, Tungsten bravely replied, “Meow.”
