Yesterday, in Greeley, Colorado, a 26-year-old woman named Amanda Watkins stopped to talk to a child in someone’s front yard. Sources say she talked to the child about “hitting or harassing” a cat. No word on whether the child had hit Watkins’ cat, whether the child was hitting someone else’s cat, or whether Amanda Watkins [...]

I could pretend that I had a fascinating reason for posting these pictures of cats looking like vampires, but the only reason is that they’re awesome.
(couldn’t resist that one)

I have never seen a cat look less interested in life. But maybe that’s because it’s wearing bunny ears and a hot pink wig.
I was tipped off to this video by Crispin Best, who made that lovely cat book trailer I posted about recently.

We all know about Dewey, the most famous library cat in the world. Now meet Fidel:
Fidel lives in Kent, England, and spends his days at the local library, leaving only when he sees his owners coming home from work. At first, the staff tried to discourage him, but he kept coming back, and sometimes even [...]

This Saturday in Seattle there’s finally a place for all the totally special but still very normal cats to go to have their day in the sun: the Average Joe Cat Show.

With spring comes baseball. With baseball comes . . . cats?
An intrepid cat snuck onto Wrigley Field on Tuesday night during the Cubs game. Despite being picked up by his tail by a security guard, he’s now doing fine in a local shelter.
Recently, a cat did the same thing at Citi Field during a [...]

Some builders in England recently found a cat entombed in the wall of a house. Experts think he or she has been there for nearly 400 years. Apparently, putting a cat into the wall of your house (no word on whether the cat was already dead) was thought to be good luck in Europe at [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, the Rock Cats:
Part of Samantha Martin’s cat circus, these cats performed recently in Iowa City. In addition to making beautiful music together, the cats also pushed balls and did jumping tricks. But they do it all on their own time. As Martin says, “”I gave up on making this a serious show [...]
