Kittisaurus is celebrating reaching 2 million subscribers by throwing a massive catnip party for her cats! And when we say massive....we mean it.
Approximately, $1000 dollars worth of catnip. Wowza.
It's hard to resist such a fine collection of some greenery. But one cat was able to resist, and could food over the catnip. And we are truly inspired by her actions.
Congrats on reaching 2 million subscribers, Kittisaurus!
Any cat owner knows that no matter what you order online, as long as the item comes in a box, the fun is guaranteed.
Our curious furry friends can turn any cardboard box into total play.
With that in mind, the new campaign by the Brazilian ad agency, AlmapBBDO, presents the Curiosity Boxes!
In a partnership with Petlove, Brazil's number-one online pet supplies shop, customers get a free Curiosity Box with a purchase of 40 single pouches. Each box will turn into a rocket, airplane, or submarine. Tutors can follow on-box setup instructions and readily start the cat play.
"Cats are ever curious. They love exploring new places and an empty box is full of possibilities. This inspired the team to think of giving a plain cardboard box a new twist, turning it into a playful object. That's how an online WHISKAS® buy becomes an even more rewarding experience to cats", says Marcelo Nogueira, ECD at AlmapBBDO.
What a brilliant idea!
Even murder. Yes, that's how adorable they are.
These cheeky pets were caught in the act -- red-handed! But, seriously, how can you be mad at those cute little faces of theirs? You might be angry for about 30 minutes....tops.
That's about it. Let's find out what these troublemakers did! Which ones would you forgive?
If it looks like a bear, walks like a bear, and talks like a bear then it's....a human?
Based on the following collection of photos, you'd never know these bears weren't humans in disguise.
Take a look and see if you agree.
It's the start of another really weird work week working from home! It's purrfectly healthy to take a mental health break and reward yourself with some of the funniest, cutest, and plain bizarre cat videos on Instagram!
Enjoy!
If you missed last week's top 5, you can find it here. There are few things in this world better than scrolling through cat hashtags on Instagram.
But we can't think of any. Nor do we want to.
Papille, the French cat, has survived the coronavirus infection and feline good!
Papille is a nine-year-old cat and is recorded as the very first pet being infected by the virus in France. It's most likely that Papille got the virus from her owners, who were also COVID-19 sufferers.
"Mum found it strange she was showing the same symptoms as a human: fatigue, a cough and bouts of lethargy. We said to ourselves, 'perhaps it's COVID-19. Unlikely, but perhaps'," Brian, Papille's owner told Reuters.
"She couldn't stand, she wouldn't react when we called her. She'd barely lift her head," said Brian. "It was us who transmitted the virus," he continued.
Science director at the Alfort National, Vet School, Renaud Tissier said, "Human to animal transmission is not something that is impossible, but it is very rare, We have no cases of humans being infected by pets."
Thankfully, Papille is back to her old self, purring contentedly, and getting a lot of love and affection from her owners.
We're so happy to hear the news! Wishing Papille a long and healthy life! Check out the pics of Brian and the lovely Papille below!

Congratulations to the Australian Reptile Park in Somersby, New South Wales, and to the mother, Rosie!
A ray of hope is lit in the land down under as Ash, the first koala to be born months after the devastating bushfires that gripped the continent. Up to 85% of the koala population was wiped out between November 2019 and February 2020.
Australian Reptile Park Zookeeper, Dan Rumsey told BuzzFeed News, "Ash represents the start of what we're hoping to be another successful breeding season. It was such an incredible moment when we saw Ash poke her head out of her mum's pouch for the first time!"
And while it is the first time the world (and zookeepers) have seen the baby, Ash is already 5 months old.
"Ash is estimated to be 5 months old and is right on track to be emerging from the pouch for the first time. Her mother Rosie has shown exemplary parenting skills and we know that Ash is in good paws," Rumsey added.
The park is said to reopen on June 1st and just in time for visitors to see the ray of hope themselves!
