cat videos

This is definitely one of the most wholesome Twitter accounts we have seen lately. 

The head priest at the temple in Tochigi prefecture, Japan, is documenting the four adorable cats living with him. 

As you can see, it seems like they all very close relationships.    

When @DacotaLameHumor shared this cute video with the caption "My cat just locked up my dog lmfaooo", people on Twitter saw it as one more proof of cats' superiority over dogs. 

Fostering has never been more important than it is today. In these unprecedented times, more-and-more people are turning to animal shelters and rescues to foster pets.  

But for the first time fosters, the experience can be as overwhelming as it is rewarding. 

To help support first-time fosters and adopters, Royal Canin just launched "Catology" – an educational series for first-time kitten fosters and adopters. It is a series of free, interactive live streams, featuring kitten expert and Internet sensation Hannah Shaw, The Kitten Lady, and covering the most important kitten topics – caring for neonates, feeding and nutrition, kitten behavior, and socializing, among others. Each class is always followed by a discussion and Q&A. 

"Catology" Started running on April 18th and will continue to run each Saturday for four consecutive weeks at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT. 

The webinars are streamed live on the official Facebook and Instagram of Royal Canin and the official Facebook and Instagram of The Kitten Lady and are available to rewatch following each event. 

Here are the first two episodes plus some info about the next two episodes. 

Chris Platzer is a respectful planning commissioner from Vallejo, California, but a few days ago, on April 20, a zoom teleconference he held with other city officials went totally wrong. 

In the outrageous video below, you can see Platzer saying "I'd like to introduce my cat," then picking up his pet before suddenly tossing the poor animal off-screen. The cat landed with a thud. A fellow commissioner covers his face with his hands, while another laughs.

His questionable behavior continued as he was seeing drinking beer and making derogatory remarks after the online meeting had ended.

As the video was made public, people were stunned by his cruel behavior. 

Gladly, once again, public pressure led to justice and in an email sent to the Times-Herald on Saturday, Platzer said he has resigned from the planning commission, effective immediately: "I did not conduct myself in the Zoom meeting in a manner befitting of a planning commissioner and apologize for any harm I may have inflicted," Platzer wrote in the email. "I serve at the pleasure of the council and no longer have that trust and backing. I extend my gratitude to those who have supported me during my tenure. I have always felt that serving Vallejo in a voluntary position is honorable because Vallejo is worth serving. We are all living in uncertain times and I certainly, like many of you, am adjusting to a new normalcy."

We believe there is never a time or a place for animal cruelty, not even in uncertain times.  

Cat vs. Dog. 

Gracefulness Vs. Clumsiness. 

All summed up in one obstacle course challenge performed by twitter user BuitengebiedenB. 

As you can see, the cat is cautious while the dog...Well, not so much. 

The cat people and dog people on twitter had a lot to say.
