Confused Puppy Thinks She’s a Hamster

Gracie, a puppy from Long Island, NY, is going through a phase.

After watching one episode of The Real Hamsters of Peoria on Animal Planet, she has begun imitating the stars’ behavior and claiming that she is, in fact, a hamster herself. Gracie’s been sipping from a water drip and storing seeds in her cheeks for days.

Manhattan Puppy Faces Mid-Life Crisis at a Young Age

Zeus, an English Bulldog from New York City, had an easy life. Wake up, waddle around a bit, take a nap – it was every dog’s dream.

That is until he started confronting the tough questions: What’s he going to do with his life? Would he be able to make any meaningful and lasting contributions to society?

While his psychologist warned that entertaining a “mid-life crisis” at such a young age is unhealthy, Zeus insisted on taking Salsa lessons and reading everything he can about Gothic architecture – one of his many unexplored passions.

4 Out of 5 Dentists Recommend Cats

A survey of the American Dental Association finds that 80% of professional mouth doctors recommend keeping your cat nearby while brushing and flossing your teeth.

“There’s no direct impact on dental health,” says Dr. Philip Amanpour, DDS. “But it’s a motivational thing. Who doesn’t want to have fresh breath for his kitty?”
