Cupid the cat was found wandering the streets of Houston, Texas, with an arrow shot straight through him. The poor little ginger buddy survived several days on the streets with the arrow embedded in his body, before rescue workers were able to remove it. Luckily, no major organs were damaged, and after he recovers, he’ll be up for adoption. Insert your own predictable “nine lives” joke here. [Purr Paws Rescue]
I don’t really see it, but I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve been told I look like Barbra Streisand. I typically attribute this to people who have never seen a Jewish woman in real life or something, but apparently this also happens in the cat world. Where are you, darling Barbra-a-like feline? We should probably make a record together. [Neatorama]
There may be nothing cats hate more than wearing clothes. That’s because cats, unlike dogs, absolutely feel humiliation and embarrassment in a real way. You can see it on their little cat faces, and read it in the way that they stalk around with utter disdain whenever they see the offending humans that made them wear the reindeer ears or, in this particular cat’s case, the Santa suit.

Humans just love anthropomorphizing their animals. I mean, look, I named my cat Colonel Mustard, okay? He has a friggin’ military title, so I think I know what I’m talking about. So, sure, yes, I want to see my cat play with this scratch-pad-disguised-as-a-turntable. Sure I do. Imagine The Colonel taking his giant paws to this faux record and becoming a pretend DJ. How adorable would that be?
It’s been apocalyptically raining and rather miserable in New York this week. So, I think we can all agree that what’s needed right now is an adorable orange kitten interlude. This particular kitten is named Garfield, and he’s hiding in plain sight from a large dog that’s chasing him around the yard. Feel free to refer to Garfield as much as is needed this weekend.

Lady Gaga pushes the fashion envelope, but she would never condone catricide in her name. One of Gaga’s Little Monsters, Angelina Barnes, allegedly murdered her family’s cat by drowning it in the bathtub and mutilating its body. Why? The 20-year-old Oklahoma woman needed the cat’s blood for a stylish outfit she was planning to wear to Lady Gaga’s concert that evening. Her plan was foiled when a relative discovered her in her home wearing a long coat with cat blood smeared all over her face, duct tape over all the light switches, and the cat’s liver in her makeup case. Angelina never made it to the concert as she was escorted to the psych ward. She had suffered from depression in the past, but friends and family insist she had never been violent. So. Upsetting.

Take a look at Oscar’s new paws! This poor kitty lost his feet after being run over by a combine harvester, but got a second chance to jump around with the help of a British neurosurgeon. The doc was able to deck out Oscar with some bionic back legs, not only giving him a fashionable look but his full mobility back as well. After the jump, check out a video of Oscar bounding about after surgery like nothing has changed. [LA Times] Keep reading »
