Puppy Gets Job at French Bistro

Puppy Gets Job at French Bistro

by Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

Butterscotch the dog recently entered the workforce in Washington, D.C., after landing an entry-level position at a newly opened French bistro.

Chez Marie was a long-awaited addition to the trendy Adams Morgan neighborhood, and most of the staff positions were snapped up quickly. Yet, despite the tough competition and a substandard resume, Butterscotch found himself working as a janitor.

“Actually, we never officially hired him,” Chez Marie manager Eloise Tatin said. “He just appeared one afternoon after the brunch rush and licked up all the crumbs on the patio. But the waitstaff thought he was adorable, so we kept him around. Don’t tell him, but next week we’re going to promote him to dishwasher – I think he’ll love that.”

Sleepy Cat Inspires New Martial Arts Style

by Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

A new school of martial arts dubbed “Napping Master” is sweeping the nation. The fighting style is said to harnesses the power of sleep, and many of its signature moves tap into both the involuntary twitching from a dream state and the slow movements of rolling around during slumber.

“It’s an offshoot of the Drunken Master ideology,” said originator Rick Chang explained. “The inspiration came from my cat, Ginger. I’d try to pet him when he was dozing, and he’d punch me away with his paws.”

From that first feline sparring match, Chang has introduced the style to the competitive circle. He said that while Ginger is the originator of the school, he’s too lazy to undergo formal training.

“Cats have a natural talent for this style,” he said. “It’s actually really hard for humans to learn. But I have yet to find a kitty I could teach.”
