During the abundant wedding coverage just one year ago, somebody- maybe a Jez commenter?- noted that the new Duchess’s sunny smile from her horse-drawn carriage was the look of someone who knows they will never again, in their whole life, have to add some water to the shampoo bottle to stretch out another wash or two.…

Well no because the guy made a racist tweet, he immediately got sacked, he tweeted sorry, and he stayed sacked.

I check his page every day, and it just makes me smile so much. I also give Maru’s person so much credit for not schlumping him around everywhere to make some money. (And I’ll be totally honest here, if there was an opportunity to get a picture with Maru, I would be on the next plane to Japan.) I will be devastated…

Lil Bub just turned 8 despite all of the odds, considering the lengthy list of birth defects and physical ailments she deals with. Her human takes excellent care of her and together they have raised millions of dollars for shelter cats around the country.

I love Queen Nelly’s shenanigans.

My favorites, after my own of course are Grandpa Mason and Queen Nelly and her faithful (sometimes) servant Gilbert

Yes, my cat lived to 21. My friend's have a 17 year cat that is failing and it's hard to watch.

That was my very first thought, as well.

Seven is not very old for a cat. Indoor cats generally live about 12 to 18 years, and it’s not that unusual for them to reach 20 or beyond. Grumpy Cat was born with health problems, so it isn’t that surprising she passed away at an early age, but it's still very sad. I am sure she had a pampered, happy life while she…

Dogs and cats should definitely be immortal.

In general, whoever is in charge of cat health, needs to make them more durable. Watching elderly kitties fail is hard and depressing.

Dear whomever is in charge of internet cat health, please do not ever take Lil Bub from us.  I will not be able to recover.  

“Certainly they lost less money by giving us free dessert than a free entree.”

I cannot believe they were able to link to three -- THREE! -- separate dirt bag stories about his shitty behavior on planes. He sounds like a peach.

I don’t even know what this article is about. All I could see was the truly tragic facial hair in the header and my brain could process no other information.

I once got tipsy with my mother-in-law. It was pleasant for both of us, she rarely drank and I drank like a fish. She asked me (early on in my relationship with her son, sizing me up) if I had ever smoked marijuana. “Well, yes, in high school, but never in college, they were very strict about that. It was a Catholic…

Wait, so they were planning to try and change drug import laws by just showing up with an industrial quantity of drugs?
