News, but not the serious kind

This cat gets board easily…

Now meet Nicolasa, a cat who seems to love surfing, and is pretty good at it although she’s only been doing it for a month.

In the interest of responsible pet ownership I really wouldn’t advise other cats to try this, and above all, remember: catnip and surfing don’t mix!

Judging by the look on the cat’s face it doesn’t seem happy with the cat on a surfboard concept it’s own 15 minutes of fame.

Dear Pet Admirer,

Aren’t animals amazing? They are full of tricks and special abilities.

I once owned a dog who loved to box. He used to stand up on his hind legs and jab jab jab. He was a great little mover and had a fierce uppercut.

However, he was no match for me and 10 rounds later, I soon had his number. He never boxed again.
