Welcome to WORLD MEWS REPURRT!
Brought to you by the world class repurrting and researching team, of yours truly, Nikita Cat and Elvira Mistress of Felinity, at the Feline News Network (FNN)!
We consider it our mission to bring you the news that possibly no-one but our fellow Felines and their Humans, could give a fig about!
We aim to point you toward these stories and sometimes even toss in our 2 cents worth on them as well.
We encourage you to leave your thoughts in the comments, link back to our reports on your own blog, so others can be made aware of the latest news and if you come across a story you think we might be interested in, alert us via the e-mail in the sidebar.
Tipsters, whose alerts we use, will get credit, with a link to their blog, or website. :-D
Let's get this show on the road!
Good evening Felinity Assembled! Elvira Mistress of Felinity, here!
In honor of my upcoming Gotcha Day, later this week, Nikita is letting me play host! :-D
Boy do I have some interesting things to share, this time around!
1. There is some troubling news in the world of human and feline science.
A recent study shows how a parasite some of us felines might carry could cause some human women to get all suicidal.
The good news, as reported by the L.A. Times, is that "most people infected with T. gondii probably got it from undercooked meat" and not from their feline companions, so there's little evidence your human should worry.
I just love the photo of the doctor with his cat named Tibby! :-D
2. There's a theory going around, promulgated by a tumblr site, that "Cats hate reading".
I don't know why, or how, this rumor got started, I mean, Nikita and I just love books! And magazines and newspapers! :-D
Anyway, this site encourages people to share their photos of their feline companions and books, and tell what book the cat is sharing space with. :-D
3. Over at the Library Thing website, in the "What are you reading now" group, someone started a thread that they called "Puss n Books", posing this topic for discussion: "One of my groups got into a discussion about cats and it sparked an interest into how many books and series there are where a cat or cats are main characters."
Begun in Dec. 2008, the comments reached 24 in Febr. 2009, before everyone apparently lost interest. :-D
4. As a public service I now share an old Love Meow post that will help you explain things to your human the next time you, um, pass wind. :-D
Do Cats fart?
5. Surprise your human by asking them this question, and then providing the answer when they respond with a "WTH?"
Did you know that Cindy Brady sells Kitten Crap? :-D
6. Neotorama finds a claymation cat action film that is bloody violent, bloody amusing, bloody entertaining and bloody good! Oh, did I say bloody? Consider yourself warned. :-D
7. Shit People Say to the Cats Left Behind After a Breakup (Good-bye Winston)... On Gawker, the story of the end of one of the great internet sensations, as told by the human involved.
8. Yep, we felines can have allergies, too!
9. The folks over at Friskies seem to think there is an epidemic of Cat Boredom, or "CB" as they call it.
Are you bored? Nikita and I aren't. And, the only CB we care about is this one, hee, hee! :-D
10. The family of George W. Bush has a new family member, a cat named Bob!
