Oh yes, it's almost time for the opening of Snakes on a Plane. You readers (all one of you) know I've been on this Samuel L. Jackson MF bandwagon from day one. While the fun of SOAP will no doubt come to a screeching halt when the movie actually comes out, here is one last laugh for good measure... yes... that's right, friends... better than Snakes on a Board Game, it's Snakes on a Cake.
Brilliant! Not sure why, but it just doesn't get old...
If you love your rats, want to give them the best care possible, and want to share your love of rats with other rat lovers, then The Rat Fan Club is for you!
Petrica, a web-savvy Romanian cat, has declared Madonna to be the Antichrist on her blog. It's so refreshing to see a housepet who really takes a stand on things!
And for more international cat angst... the Netherlands brings us the Hitler cats. (I'm reminded of an old Far Side cartoon.) Cats are so stoic that it's kind of creepy... so I actually really want to see them do a "Hitler puppies" site. I'd just really, really like to see Hitler with his tongue hanging out as he's frantically gnawing on a chew toy. But maybe that's just me.
Many Christians believe that animals do not go to heaven. So when Jesus comes back and you return with him to heaven, will there be somebody to take care of your dog or cat?
If you have a non-Christian family member, they might take care of your pet, but if not, have you made any plans? Imagine being taken to streets of gold while your dog starves to death walking around in his own feces trapped in your small house or apartment, subject to fire and earthquakes or even being eaten by heathens searching for any remaining morsel of food. Do you want that to happen?
For anyone who thought that PETA was strictly a mammal advocate group, The Lobster Arcade Game was recently denounced by Karin Robertson of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals who said it's cruel to use lobsters as an amusement before cooking them. PETA reports that the Roland's Seafood Grill in Pittsburgh has removed this cruel contraption.

Fainting Goats are a slightly smaller version of the standard goat, who, believe it or not, thanks to a genetic condition called myotonia congenita, actually seem to faint when they are startled.
As strange as this may sound, these little critters have actually served an historical purpose. Shepherds often kept the goats in with their flocks as insurance in case of predator attacks. The theory went something like this- as wolves would come down from the hills to attack a flock of sheep, the goats would become startled and, as per the name of their breed, they would faint. The sheep would make a clean getaway, as the wolves would focus on the stunned goats rather than pursue the fleeing sheep.
"Once your pet has passed away, place him or her into a plastic bag and into a freezer ASAP."

It's a sad truth, but totally stupid stuff doesn't usually last very long on the internet. It's therefore very satisfying to eagerly anticipate the ten year anniversary of Cat Cam, launched in 1996 and still just as stupid as ever.
With the success of the latest King Kong movie, it might be a good time to be reminded of the real life monkeys that have changed things for the better.
Want to keep that manly bounce in Fido's step without upsetting Bob Barker? Well, just invest in a pair of patented Neuticles, the testicular implants for pets.
Oh sure, it all began innocently enough. In 1997, students in Harvard University's Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences decided to study squirrels. Specifically? Fishing for them.
But what about the poor defenseless squirrels? Are they supposed to simply put up with being hunted, humiliated, enslaved, mocked and derided? Oh, think again, my friend.
Contrary to popular wisdom, it's not just mammals and fishes on the US endangered species list. There are quite a number of bugs as well.
Barely hanging onto existence in Texas for example, is an un-named beetle, only discovered in 1987 and promptly slated for extinction by the year 2000. When thirteen years pass between your discovery and probable extinction, that's just... cruel and unusual, but to be un-named as well?
It does raise the question: Are there any legitimate operations out there willing to turn dead pets into a hat? I for one would like to remember my cat by wearing her.

Just south of scenic San Francisco, there lives a kitten-loving, very smart, very famous gorilla by the name of Koko. In 1971, a graduate student named Penny Patterson met this small sickly baby gorilla and became committed to teaching Koko how to communicate via sign language. Over thirty years, a special friendship blossomed. No, I mean a REALLY, REALLY special friendship...
See, this month, a scandalous sexual harrassment suit prompted by that special friendship was settled out of court & brushed under the proverbial table. If you don't know the story already, I'll just let you read the details for yourself.

Dedicated pets are working hard to look like celebrities. See the best of these hard-working animals. This agent apparently represents ant actors, but doesn't supply any head shots.
Some talented pets are actual celebrities and most of them are represented by the biggest hollywood pet agency - whose catchy slogan is "Any actor can beg for a part, but ours do it on cue".
Clearly, not all pets can be fabulous, but that doesn't mean they can't look good.Dress up your pet today.
It's unclear which is more disturbing, the idea itself, the fact that the site is mentioned as a "Cool Site of the Day" by What's On, or the Gold International Award received at the Invention Convention of 1997. Since the inventor doesn't have them for sale at the site, this uniquely unsettling link will prove quite handy in that regard.
