A Few Fun And Interesting Things For The Weekend...
In 1982 Louis Comuti, the first feline veterinarian, reported an incident; an elderly widow wanted to be buried with her cat. When the cat passed away, she had it buried in a pet cemetery where it would lie until her own death. Unfortunately she soon found out that it violated health regulations for the cat to be buried with her. Not to be deterred the woman had the cat cremated and its ashes where sewn into the hem of her wedding dress in which she was ultimately was buried.

This week on Meet The Press; an interesting video of " what kids would sound like if they talked like politicians"; http://newsbusters.org/blogs/jeffrey-meyer/2014/10/26/meet-press-creates-political-skit-complaining-about-americas

Did you know that people are selling their imaginary friends on e bay? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/20/imaginary-friends-ebay_n_6015942.html
And lastly we want to give a big Noodle hug to Blue Marble Ice Cream. Made in Brooklyn, New York not only did Alexis and Jennie start this great sweet treat business but they took it a step further and started a non-profit to help women in Rwanda and soon in Haiti by helping to open ice cream shops in both countries! We love this idea and we love them for putting a wonderful dream into reality. Check out the ice cream and donate to the cause! http://www.bluemarbleicecream.com/ and http://www.bluemarbledreams.org/Support/
Have a fun and wonderful weekend!

How does being buried with your pet violate health regulations? A corpse is a corpse, and bipeds ARE animals. Humans sure have weird rules. At least she devised a good solution!
