This cat was, apparently, cut in half by Google Street View cameras. But the blog from which the image comes—Google Street View World—doesn't provide the coordinates that would allow us to see half cat in his (her?) natural Street View habitat. Where can I find half cat?

What a week, huh? What a week. This is a cat playing with a vacuum. I think it's Russian? The video is called "Кот и пылесос," or, "The Cat and the Vacuum Cleaner." I don't know. The top comment is "0:26 lol))"

Last night, during the Mad Men season premiere, New York magazine published the definitive account of internet animal-photography-distribution platform Buzzfeed. Here are some of the coolest things we learned about Jonah Peretti's awesome advertorial platform:

New York. The Big Apple. A universe dotted with thousands of stars. And millions more who burned out before they ever got a chance to shine.

In February, a hacker named Guccifer revealed to the world the hidden artistic talents of George W. Bush, releasing to The Smoking Gun a handful of photographs of oil paintings by the former president that had been taken from personal Bush family emails. The images were well-received by critics and laypeople alike, but they represented only a small portion of the budding outsider artist's oeuvre. Little more was being made available: In an interview with an Atlanta television station, his art teacher said he'd painted "over 50 dogs," tantalizingly few of which were actually shown on the broadcast. Otherwise, the Texan Master was silent. The world was crying out for more Bush art, more raw talent, more lush brushstrokes—more dogs—and nothing was forthcoming.

This photo essay on the life of Hiroyuki Ito's cat does the "every pet is a tragedy waiting to happen" thing very well.

A Siberian woman has been arrested and charged with murder for stabbing her husband to death after he attempted to kill her cat with a rake.

Medievalist Emir O. Filipovic was flipping through fifteenth century manuscripts at the State Archives in Dubrovnik, Croatia — your average light reading — when he came across something rather remarkable on one of the pages: Feline paw prints.

Authorities in New York state's Putnam County area believe there's a "serial cat killer" at large. Earlier this week, a seven-month-old feline named Blackfoot died in the Westchester Animal Hospital, after the brown-and-black Calico was found beaten and shot in the spine. A mile away from the site of Blackfoot's shooting, a cat head was found last August.

Yesterday, we learned that your cat could, in fact, suffer from a mental illness. Today, we learn that, mental illness or not, cats are responsible for killing an insane number of birds and small mammals each year. According to a report from the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and the Fish and Wildlife Service, cats kill an average of 2.4 billion birds and 12.3 billion small mammals a year.

It was inevitable that Lisa would one day end up on the Internet, with her unique spin on what it means to be a crazy cat lady. She is like light to the dark of that Hoarders subject who kept her dead cats in the fridge. Lisa eats cat hair. She finds it all over her apartment, which must be as wonderful and fuzzy as finding chewed gum all over your apartment if you are a regular person who doesn't eat cat hair. She prefers it from the source, though: "The best ones are right off the cat," she explains. Freshness is key, obviously.

If Gareth Morgan gets his way, the entire country of New Zealand could be cat-free within a matter of years.

A truck hauling over 1,000 cats stuffed into some 40 cages was involved in a traffic accident in Changsha, the capital city of China's Hunan province, giving local animal activists time to free them.

Early New Year's Eve, police in Brazil's Alagoas state thwarted a potential jailbreak when they captured a cat attempting to smuggle various escape tools into a medium-security prison. According to Google's probably very accurate translation of the State of Alagoas' official statement on the matter, the small black and white cat was found with " two saws, two drills for concrete, a headset, a memory card, a cell phone, three batteries and a mobile phone charger" taped around its stomach.

Today isn't just human Christmas, you guys. It's also pet Christmas, where people wrap and give gifts to their pets despite the animals having literally no idea what's going on. Nonetheless, watching cats and dogs gnaw and tear at wrapping paper to uncover a gift is undeniably cute, so let's all warm our hearts by watching pets — like Mac the puggle, who just could not wait to get his reindeer chew toy in the video above — open their Christmas presents.

This year's Kardashian family Kristmas Kard takes, as its theme, a lesson in quantum physics.

Everyone knows that after the sun sets on another sizzling Miami day is when things really start to heat up, dale.

(If the headline isn't enough of a warning, here's another: the video above is disgusting and disturbing. Proceed with caution and without food in your mouth.)

They roam the toughest streets of Cairo without fear, beg for food, get into fights, run from tear gas shells, and if you stare at them, they stare right back. No, we're not just talking about Egypt's youthful protesters, we're talking about the country's feral cats. There's thousands of these urban felines wandering around the city and like everyone else, they hustle to survive. Here's a photo tribute to these furry badasses below and more in the gallery above. They're everywhere!

Last week on Black Friday, we asked you to suggest gifts for cat caretakers who post their feline friends on Instagram, but aren't stereotypically sad lonely weirdos. Many of you were too busy buying cases of discounted Furbies or doing something stupid with your families and didn't bother to help us and I'll have you know my cat is seriously pissed. But those of you who did offer us help, here's a note of gratitude from my cat: ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc43df jmy6 RT n09t69.* nm2œΩ3yyyyyyyyy45 uyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. <—-That's real by the way.
