The name Thomas Edison is practically synonymous with hilarious cats. But did you know he may have created the original “funny cat video?”
The Boxing Cats (featured above) was one of the earliest motion pictures produced by America’s first movie studio.
Sadly, the cats depicted in the film have been dead for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

The National Knitters Council (NKC) is politely asking all cats to back off when people are trying to make scarves and sweaters.
“We know cats’ intentions are good,” said Martha Connolly, Vice President of the NKC, at a press conference Monday afternoon. “But they’re kind of in the way.”

New research from the University of Paris suggests cat evolution is trending toward upright posture.
“More and more, we are seeing cats gaining survival advantages when they stand on their hind legs,” says Michel Ager, an evolutionary biologist involved in the study. “The increased height and potential use of the forearms is akin to the trajectory we’ve observed in primate evolution.”
But don’t expect to see cats walking around with top hats and canes anytime soon. Given their rate of reproduction and genomic resistance to mutation, Ager says it may take between 700,000 and 1 million years for any meaningful species differentiation to occur.

Two panda bear cubs were caught misbehaving in the treetops of their enclosure early Tuesday morning, and subsequently sent to their rooms.
According to reports, the cubs’ mother “totally freaked” when she saw them horsing around at such dangerous heights. She has confiscated their phones and Chinese media outlet Panda Cute OK! has confirmed the cubs will go without video games for at least a week.
