If you've been online in the past two days, you might have noticed that the internet is erupting with memes, jokes, information, and even an interactive game, about 30-50 feral hogs.

So if you want to bring your pet to work, consider applying to one of these companies.
The United States' embassy in Canberra issued an apology after the US state department distributed a fake meeting invitation with a photo of a cat wearing a blue Cookie Monster outfit. We really think that no apology is necessary in this case.
