I think that they are not allowed to edit or add to the play? That is part of the issue. Instead they are going with student written monologues which I think is a cool idea and probably more inclusive. I'm not convinced though that vagina monologues is that offensive. Maybe I'm missing something.

ZOMG that's the cutest fluffiest cat EVER OMGGGGGG

Gah, I'm facing a less-terrible version of this situation. There's an adorable, fluffy, incredibly friendly cat that shows up at our house about once a day. When it first started happening a few months back, we thought it was a stray cat that had been abandoned; it was declawed, was really thin - you could feel ribs &

Awwww!!! You are such a sensitive soul :) I'm like dying over here at box turtles (they are pretty gross I will warn you about that). I actually like rats a lot as pets - hypothetically at least haha!

Good on you and Partner not-you-too for adopting a rescue dog! Some people hate doing that because they assume the

Ugh I am so, so sorry. That is so traumatic :( Especially at that age where you're old enough to understand death but not old enough to understand death. I regularly get upset with people who are fair-weather pet owners (or perhaps worse, selfish pet owners). Nah. Pets are forever and you never treat a pet like an

My one cat will just take the water in the face all while looking at me sadly. Breaks my heart so I stop and he wins by default.

That is actually probably the worst thing I've ever heard. They were going to put him down because they didn't want him? After they had already declawed the poor thing? I'm so glad he got 5 happy years (and hopefully many more) with you though!!!! I guess y'all got lucky with each other :) I LOVE THESE KINDS OF STORIES

My sweet 15-year-old boy was given up at the age of 10. He was neutered and declawed and his owners took him to the vet to be put to sleep because they didn't want him anymore. My friend sent out a plea for someone to take him and I did and it was the best decision ever. He is THE BEST cat I've ever had and I love

Furniture is expendable.

I think it's just that it's also medically unnecessary, purely done for aesthetics. Also, dogs use their tails to communicate (mostly things like OMG I LOVE YOU I LOVE BALLS LET ME SNIFF YOUR BUTT) so I imagine taking them away impacts their communication. But I'm not an expert, so I dunno for sure.

when i worked at an animal hospital, a post declaw cat managed to escape from her cage, which was around chest level for me (5'11"). i was horrified when i realized she had jumped down on her hurting little footies D:

Team Cat Headquarters here,

Me, too. Once I learned what it actually is, I was horrified that all THREE of my cats growing up had been declawed :-(. Poor kitties.

Look, if you want an animal that can't claw you or your belongings, don't get a fucking cat. Even the best behaved cats may claw on furniture occasionally and cats very rarely claw a person without reason.

Yup, I'm fine with this being banned. We should also add ear and tail docking to the list too, while we're at it.

Wow, awesome story. Thanks for writing this, and to Jezebel for publishing it!

He's even cool with that!

In our ecclesiastical region there are priests who don't baptise the children of single mothers because they weren't conceived in the sanctity of marriage. These are today's hypocrites. Those who clericalise the church. Those who separate the people of God from salvation."

Heck, I'm a Jew and I'm going, "This dude is the COOLEST."
