Area Cat Relaxes After Hard Day of Napping

Area Cat Relaxes After Hard Day of Napping

After a long day of sleeping, napping and lounging about his Kentucky home, Mister the cat needs some “me” time to unwind. That’s why he likes to plop himself down on the living room couch and just chill out.

“He puts in so many hours sleeping during the day," said Lyle Stanton, a long time admirer of the hardworking cat, "that he deserves some time to just relax by himself on the couch. He needs to recharge his batteries so he can stay fresh for tomorrow’s naps.”

No word on what Mister likes to watch on TV or if he ever gets up to fetch a snack from the kitchen.

BREAKING: Denver Cops In Hot Pursuit of Fugitive Bunny

Authorities in Denver, CO are engaged in a frantic car chase with a suspected arugula thief heading north on Interstate 25. Witnesses at a local Safeway supermarket reported seeing the suspect, identified by police as a 4-year-old bunny named Belly, leave the store with a pawful of lettuce under a trench coat.

When Safeway security was alerted, Belly allegedly hopped into his Ford Fiesta and sped off. Local police were soon in pursuit.

“I knew there was something weird going on,” says grocery shopper Linda McNally, who witnessed the alleged heist. “That bunny was sniffing around, looking all suspicious. I saw him snatch the arugula – he couldn’t help himself!”

At this time, a squadron of police cars are trailing a safe distance from the Fiesta, and on-ramps to Interstate 25 north of Denver have been closed for public safety.

The Fluffington Post will keep you updated as this story develops.

Delicate Dog Washed With Regular Clothes

A Brooklyn pup named Betty was accidentally washed in a mixed load of laundry early Friday morning after being dropped into the wrong basket.

“She should normally go into the gentle cycle with the more delicate blouses and sweaters,” says Jennifer Hanson, a source familiar with the laundry situation. “When she gets mixed in with the regulars, she tends to get wrinkly or shrink in the drier. Not a good situation.”

Boston Terrier Is First Dog to Scale Mount Everest

Reports from a base camp in Nepal confirm that an intrepid Boston Terrier named Richard has successfully reached the peak of the world’s tallest mountain.

“Richard set out to conquer Everest about three years ago,” the dog’s longtime friend and climbing partner Johnathan Bulcher tells The Fluffington Post. “We would train together a lot, but Everest wasn’t for me. I knew he’d have to tackle this one on his own.”

Taking one assistant and a Neapali sherpa as a guide, Richard set out on February 19th, and radioed back to base that he had reached the peak at 10:41 am local time today.

“I’m really proud of him,” says Bulcher. “He crossed that one off the bucket list.”

Chihuahua Toots in Team Meeting, Human Blamed for Smell

By Stacie Grissom, BarkBox Blogger

When 7-year-old Cricket Bean ate a piece of avocado out of the office trash can, she had no idea the havoc it would wreak on her tiny digestive system. 

“We were sitting in the BarkBox office debating the imperative engineering qualities of the perfect squeaky toy when I smelled a smell so foul that I naturally assumed it was of a human source,” says Danielle Maveal, Cricket’s office mate. “I wrongfully accused my co-worker Rob, and our relationship hasn’t recovered since.”

No word if Cricket Bean plans to scavenge future snacks from the office trash.
