Old folks love a wedding. And I suppose that once you reach a certain age it doesn’t really matter who’s getting married just so long as you’re invited.

I haven’t been this excited since I saw a cloud in the shape of Lassie.
Obviously bored of appearing on towels, mirrors, shrouds, pancakes, tortilla chips, baby’s ultrasound scans, bathroom ceilings and piles of grass cuttings all over the world, the image of Jesus has decided to try something new, by appearing on Roger Bowman’s dog [...]

Bisto, an unidentified mix from Milpitas, CA, awoke from his afternoon nap Wednesday to find that much of the sofa on which he was sleeping had apparently disintegrated of its own accord and vanished into thin air.

Jake LeNoir (pictured), a 28-month old rat terrier from Florida, is furious with his owner tonight after the spoilsporting human broke up a particularly enjoyable fight between him and a shark.

One thing which really gets under my whiskers is the tendency for humans to expend large amounts of effort conducting elaborate “studies” into animal behavior, without it ever occurring to them that all they have to do is ask us what they want to know.
