Every year, hundreds of people walk silently through the streets of Minneapolis… looking at the windows of the houses. It's the Wedge Cat Tour: the residents put the cats in the window and the crowd stops to admire them. Yes. This exists. 😹

Sadly, the brutal underground sport of kitten fighting continues to go on unabated, and remains criminally unreported.
A kitten sits on a bed, staring at the camera as a second lays stretched out flat on its back.

Genuine question: excuse my ignorance as I haven't seen all of the presser, but are these fuckwits attacking the brand Tylenol or the drug paracetamol? I and many people I know are autistic but never taken Tylenol because we don't live in the US. Make it make sense!

Bit of a timeline cleanse for you… Here’s a cat on a glass table.
A fluffy white cat lies on a glass surface, seen from below. Its body looks like a squishy cloud pressed against the glass, with tiny paws tucked under like a loaf of bread. The tail curls around snugly, and the cat’s head rests to the side, giving it a peaceful, floating-in-the-air look.
