When a stray cat got his head stuck between the bars of an iron fence, the Los Angeles Animal Services Specialized Mobile Animal Rescue Team, otherwise known as SMART, was called out to rescue the feline in distress. The stray, nicknamed Midnight by neighbors, was known to regularly go in and out of the bottom of the fence. But one day, after being cruelly shot twice with a BB gun, the poor kitty got scared and ran through the wrong hole. After trying to gently push his head back through the bars, the rescue team enlisted the help of a vet technician who sedated Midnight as the team successfully freed him from the gate. After his dramatic rescue, Midnight was taken to an animal shelter to be cared for, and I’m very happy to report that the little guy was adopted soon after by a loving family.

When Oliver the cat sits down to eat his lunch every day, it’s always under the watchful eye of his canine companion, Hershey. Even though cats and dogs make unlikely friends, these two know the value of sharing! Oliver knows that the humans feed Hershey, too, but he likes to sneak him a few kibbles throughout the day just in case he’s hungry. Sharing is caring, right? Cartoons and kids’ stories might dictate that Oliver and Hershey can’t be pals, but judging by this video, they’re all about defying stereotypes. Bon appétit, cuties!

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); I will forever be a dog person because cats are just too smart and devious for my liking. Oh, and they know how pretty they are. I have yet to meet one cat or kitten that didn’t think it was better than everyone else in the room. They are also great at pulling off wicked schemes, but guess what, cats. We’re onto you. I think it’s time to expose your lies to the world. You might appear to be cute and cuddly, but in reality, you’re criminal masterminds. Here’s proof. 1. “They’re mine. They’re all mine!” 2. Looks like you won’t be getting that back anytime soon. Reddit / Vandal60 googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBM_BTF’); }); 3. “Thanks for warming it up for me.” Reddit / Jerk_Face_Magee 4. “You weren’t going to wear this today, were you?” Reddit / PerverseMadonna 5.

There’s a special place in Hell for this cat. 10. “You bought those for me, didn’t you?” Reddit / my_cat_is_a_jerk 11. “I was only trying to baptize him.” 12.

Reddit / Laladef 14. “I’m over this glass of water.” googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCI2_BTF’); }); 15. Cats can be so possessive. 16. Did he really have to scale my new white shower curtain? Reddit / kinghut11 17. Cats have no respect for anyone but themselves. 18. “Where do you think you’re going?” Reddit / Kal-El99 19. “Only one of us can have all Mommy’s love and attention.” 20. Always getting in the way. Reddit / mmmel 21. He can’t even get through a movie scene because of this cat. 22. You have a whole litter box. You’re just stealing the toilet paper to be a monster.

Residents of South Bend, Indiana, noticed a peculiar sound coming from their storm drain early one morning. The cries of two small kittens were enough to wake the suburbanites at 3:00 am. Concerned citizens in the area made several calls to the South Bend Animal Care and Control, Code Enforcement, as well as the Bureau of Sewers and Waste Water. Representatives from each department arrived on the scene as the sun rose to rescue the cute kitties. Workers used a fishing net and even climbed into the drain to bring them to safety. The first little guy was pretty easy to nab. YouTube They named him Stormy. YouTube His brother was a bit trickier, taking nearly an hour to get a hold of in the drain. He was named Jared, after his rescuer, Jared Reed. YouTube You can watch the whole emotional event in this video: (via The Dodo.) Reed, an employee of the Waste Water Department, told local news that he had been in the manholes many times before, but this was his first time going in for kittens. The fluffy brothers are currently receiving care at the South Bend Animal Care and Control and should be up for adoption soon. Read more: http://viralnova.com/drain-kittens/
Sitting at home all day, our cats seem to have it easy. They eat, they nap, they take over cardboard boxes…yep, they never lift a paw to help around the house. Or so we thought! As it turns out, not only are they hard workers, but they don’t even ask for a thank you in return (then again, a nice tuna treat couldn’t hurt). See for yourself — you may never look at your furry friends the same way again. Let’s just be glad they’re not charging us by the hour… Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/hardworking-cat/
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); Cats and dogs have a bad rap when it comes to not getting along. And while those knock-down, drag-out fights do happen, animal siblings living in the same house have to learn to put up with each other the same way human siblings do. Growing up in my house, hardly a day went by without some sort of sisterly argument over the bathroom or our clothes. If only we could have worked it out like these two! This adorable dog-cat duo takes bickering to the highest level of preciousness, and their pet parent always provides hilarious commentary. Go to your rooms and think about what you’ve done! (And maybe do it again so we can see more videos.) Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/animal-siblings-fight/
What started as a pool of 1,400 has now been whittled down to one. Thanks to The Friskies, the world finally has an answer to the burning question: What’s the greatest cat video of 2012? The Friskies, a contest and awards show celebrating the magic that is cats on YouTube, premiered last week, running a full hour and a half of furry, frisky glory. Held in Los Angeles, the celebration featured laughter, tears, and, of course, YouTube’s Michael Buckley. In the end — and despite our endorsements — no cat could win over the judges’ hearts like Oskar, the adopted blind cat who couldn’t stop playing with his green ball. That video received more than 117,000 views in a little more than weeks, netting Oskar and his overseers $15,000. Category winners — Cole’s “Black Cat Stick ’em Up,” Boo’s “Cat Alarm Clock,” Milo’s “Cardboard Dreams” and Nylah’s “Kitty Plays Fetch”—netted contestants a solid $2,500 in consolation prize money. The ceremony also included a number of gag gifts, musical performances, and imitation awards, like the Lifetime Achievement award Michael Buckley bestowed upon Will Braden, creator of Henri, Le Chat Noir. Held for the first time this year, The Friskies is, of course, an promotion from Purina’s Friskies brand cat food. Nice to see these cats are finally getting their time in the sun.

When Bella, an appropriately named beautiful St. Bernard, was introduced to one of her family’s new kittens, it was love at first sight. The big girl can’t take her eyes of the little guy, Harry, as he plays around in the grass. She makes a nervous attempt to reach out to him, but clearly doesn’t want to accidentally crush him as she ever-so-delicately pats at him. It’s so dang cute. Bonus, Bella keeping an ever watchful eye on Harry while he attempts to climb a tree: (via YouTube.) This warms even my cold, cynical heart. True love really does exist!
