🐾 FUR THE LOLS 🐾

(Because living with a cat is already a full-time sitcom.)

It’s the internet, so here’s what you really came for:

#1 This Week in Cat Chaos

🏈🐱 The Cat Who Became a College Football Star

Move over mascots, because Pudge the Persian just crashed the sports world.

It started when a Bowling Green football player casually brought his fluffy cat to practice. The team was down a long snapper and spirits were low, but suddenly… there was Pudge. Imagine a tiny ball of fluff strolling into a locker room full of giant athletes like, “Yeah, I run this place now.”

Within minutes, the players were smitten. The coaches? Powerless. The fans? Obsessed. Pudge went from “random cat at practice” to official team mascot, stealing the spotlight faster than a wide receiver on Red Bull.

Now he’s got:

📺 ESPN appearances (because of course)

💰 an NIL deal (name, image, likeness — yes, cats get those now)

👕 merch in the works (we’re begging for “Pudge Jersey #9 Lives”)

🎮 a cameo in College Football 26 video game (imagine tackling Pudge, you lose instantly)

So while other mascots bark, growl, or strut, Pudge just naps, purrs, and casually inspires an entire football team. Proof that cats don’t play sports — they become the sport.

#4 Poll Meow-ment: The Great Greeting Debate 👋🐾

💡 Fun Fact: Cats have over 100 different vocal sounds, but how they greet you says more about personality than vocabulary. From chirps to stares, every “hello” comes with a hidden message.

🙋 Science calls it communication.
🐱 We call it cat-titude.

So tell us…

*Not scientifically proven. Just emotionally confirmed by cat people everywhere.

Make way — royalty has been spotted lounging on a floral throne.

#5 Cat of the Week: Destroyer of Toilet Paper 🐾

This week’s star doesn’t need fancy toys — just a fresh roll of toilet paper and a dream. With stealthy paws and wide-eyed determination, this little troublemaker turned a simple household item into a shredded battlefield.

His mom, Cynde Williams, caught the chaos mid-crime scene — proof that cats are natural-born mischief makers who see “supplies” where we see “essentials.”

This TP terminator reminds us that while life may be full of rules, cats are here to gleefully ignore every single one. 💜🐾

📸 Spotted in the FTL Group, thanks to Cynde Williams From innocent roll to confetti party, this cat has claimed the ultimate title: bathroom bandit.

#6 Paw-spectives from Last Week

We asked: What’s your cat most likely to copy? And the winner is clear — cats have their eyes (and tails) set on the throne. 🪑👑

🏆 Copycat Champion:
Taking over your chair the moment you stand (64%) – The royal decree of catdom: “If you stand, you surrender.” Your seat is no longer yours. Period.

😼 Close contenders:

• Typing emails by walking on the keyboard (23%) – Because apparently, “mew-memoirs” are more important than your work.

• Staring at your phone like it’s their screen time (5%) – Cats are convinced they deserve unlimited scrolling rights.

🐾 Barely a whisker in sight:

• Sitting on your yoga mat mid-pose (5%) – Namaste? More like “nah, my mat.”

💡 Moral of the story: If you live with a cat, your seat is only on loan, your laptop is their diary, and your phone is just another scratching post. Consider it the rent you pay for unlimited cuddles (on their terms, of course).

#7 Purr-fessional Care: Whisker-Friendly Dining 🥣🐾

Why it matters: Cats’ whiskers are incredibly sensitive — they act like built-in radar. When whiskers constantly touch the sides of deep or narrow bowls, it can cause “whisker fatigue,” leading to stress, irritability, or even refusal to eat. A happy set of whiskers means a happier, healthier cat.

What to do:

Use shallow, wide bowls so whiskers don’t get squished

Choose bowls with a non-slip base to prevent food from sliding around

Wash daily to keep meals fresh and bacteria-free

Keep food and water bowls separate — cats prefer it that way

What to avoid:

Using deep bowls that press against whiskers

Letting dirty dishes pile up — cats notice (and dislike) stale smells

💡 Pro tip: If your cat seems hesitant at mealtime, paws at food, or pulls it out of the bowl before eating, whisker fatigue might be the culprit. A simple bowl swap can make all the difference!

That’s all for this week’s tails, fur-iend!
