“Showing the general public that even in a flagship group such as cats … there are still new species to be discovered may transmit an important message,” said Eduardo Eizirik, an evolutionary biologist at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil and senior author of the study. “There are many undiscovered species out there in the world, and they are at risk of disappearing before we even discover them.”

That really is strange. If someone is having an allergic reaction first thing a doctor should say is “Do you have any pets?”…

One day, we went to a car dealership because we were thinking about getting a new car, and there was this dude sitting in the salesperson’s office. We bought the car.

Thank you! He is two years old, my daughter got him for me from the Bend, Oregon Humane Society as my wife has finally given up and allowed me to have a Siamese, hahahaha. We got him as a kitten, so he’s really only ever known this house.
