Midwestern Cat Actually Runs Away to Join Circus
Midwestern Cat Actually Runs Away to Join Circus
We’ve all heard tell of people “running away to join the circus,” but it’s generally a lot of hot air.
Berkeley, a 2-year-old cat from Chicago, actually sealed the deal. Tired of his humdrum life in the Windy City, he crept into the tent of a traveling show, signed up for jester shifts, and never looked back.

Magic Is Hard Work for Black Cats
Magic Is Hard Work for Black Cats
Being a black cat is a thankless job. In addition to meeting hijinks quotas and distributing bad luck, demand for flashy new magic spells leaves precious few hours for relaxation.
After a tough day of spellcasting, Elsa and Floella (pictured above) are plum tuckered out.

Senate-Seeking Cat Smeared in New Political Attack Ad
Hank, a cat running for Senate in Virginia, has enjoyed the limelight of the press this week. The political newcomer has stirred quite a bit of grassroots support.
But an attack ad that hit YouTube today raises questions about the Maine Coon’s reputation.
“Hank has never released his birth certificate, his tax returns, and has never responded to allegations that he used catnip,” says the voiceover in the 30-second spot.
The source of the ad? A super PAC called “Canines for a Feline Free Tomorrow.”
Hank could not immediately be reached for comment, but his campaign manager, Matthew O’Leary, tells The Fluffington Post that this is the very fear-mongering Hank is campaigning against. “If anything, this new ad gives Hank pride in knowing that he is rattling the cages of Washington fat cats.”
