NorthFur FX really goes that extra mile in making outfits, masks, and prosthetics for grown adult humans who want to dress up as animals in the in the most lifelike costumes available on the market.  From the Q&A:

Why do you make so many animal type prosthetics?

We simply prefer making animals.  There aren’t many available and it comes up very often in plays and LARPs and even in fandoms that people would want animal characters.  Witches and devils and demons have been done time and time again by many other companies, yet no one has taken the time to make a horse, a frog or even any beaks.

I am a LARPER, which prosthetics are best?

Any prosthetic with a shorter muzzle will be best since it’s less protruding from your face and will be less likely to be hit by a boffer weapon. The type of material depends on your preference and budget.

Remember “A Day Without Megan Fox” last month?  Prob not, since if you were in or around FListed, you were way down in the VIP Internet Dungeon, where you couldn’t hear the silence up above in the Main Internet Room, because you were partying it up with Megan Fox and Lady GaGa and all your other internet friends on A Day of Only Megan Fox.

But now, in a most cheeky send-up of A Day Without Megan Fox, Urlesque has declared tomorrow A Day Without Cats, to be observed by the various websites that post videos and pics of cats a lot.  So I put the question to you, readers: would you like to make tomorrow A Day Without Cats at FListed… or A Day of Only Cats?  

Hard JK there.  Obviously I’m not going to sit here all day looking at cats and reading about cats and writing about cats.  I don’t even like cats that much.  Whatever.  We may indeed have a day without cats, but not A Day Without Cats.  Just a normal day in which nothing particularly cat-related occurs.

Instead maybe we should take this to its logical meta conclusion: A Day Without A Day Without.  Rather than trying to go all Chinese government on cats and Megan Fox, we should cherish every day we have with Megan Fox and cats and web 2.0 and stuff, because when the Rapture comes and spirits Megan Fox and cats and Amy Winehouse and Xzibit and 2 girls 1 cup up to heaven, leaving no trace of their corporeal form or existence, the internet won’t be the same afterwards.  It will just be like a really big… book.  Written by perverts.

A man was arrested in Florida yesterday because his cat downloaded child pornography on his computer.

According to a sheriff’s report Friday, Griffin told investigators that his cat jumped on the computer keyboard while he was downloading music. He said he had left the room and found “strange things” on his computer when he returned.

The cat had sabotaged him!  

More than 1,000 images of child porn were on the man’s computer, and he was charged with 10 counts of being a pervert.  It was an especially ingenious setup for the cat because who would believe that a cat could download a thousand different files, all of them pictures of humans?  And yet now the owner’s good name is ruined.

Mr. Frecklespots is still at large.

An airline for pets?  First reaction, obviously: stupid.  Way stupid.  Like bakeries for your dog and health spas for your parrot aren’t indulgent enough.  What with people starving out there (, man).

Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major cities–New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest U.S. airlines.

Additionally, the pet airline only flies out of the JV regional airports in these cities, so instead of carting Peppy to O’Hare with you, you have to make a special trip to Blagojevich Int’l.  And the flights take longer than yours, because they stop at every airport (NY to LA in 24 hrs).  But maybe this isn’t as bad an idea as it sounds?  

Well, no.  I’m afraid it is.  If only because

Among the big U.S. carriers that offer pet services, AirTran, Spirit, Southwest and JetBlue only allow pets to fly in the cabin. Most U.S. airlines charge between $100 and $125, but Delta and Northwest charge $150 for cabin trips. AirTran is the cheapest among big carriers at $69.

The charge is more to fly in the cargo or check-baggage holds. Delta and Northwest are the most expensive at $275. Alaska Airlines and Midwest charge the least, at $100. Frontier prices its checked pets fees between $100 and $200 and only takes pets as checked baggage.

So at $250, you aren’t really saving any money by flying your pet on a different airplane, but you do buy the extra burden of picking up and dropping off Flouncy at the regional airport.  However, airplanes have limited pet seating in the cabin, and riding in the cargo hold is about as comfortable as riding out of the country in the trunk of a serial killer and/or rapist’s car (he has three names, one of which is “Wayne”).

And…

Binder and Wiesel used their consulting backgrounds and business savvy to start Pet Airways in 2005. The last four years have been spent designing their fleet of five planes according to new four-legged requirements, dealing with FAA regulations and setting up airport schedules.

The two say they’re overwhelmed with the response. Flights on Pet Airways are already booked up for the next two months.

The American Dream gets amended a lot, but one version of it has remained constant: invest blood, sweat, tears, and years into a shoddy idea, market it with pictures of cute animals, and the people will beat a path to your door.

Seems to be a slow news day for celebrity females acting out in clubs.  But not everyone’s obsessed with Camron Diaz quasi-nipple-showings.  Some people are obsessed with rabbits.

Authorities said a woman obsessed with rabbits is in trouble again: In violation of probation terms, she was found holed up in a hotel room with more than a dozen rabbits. Officers said they had to break into the room Tuesday and found eight adults and half a dozen baby rabbits, one dead. The police say some were caged, some roaming.

But she was already on thin ice for much more serious rabbit-related offenses…  

She was arrested in 2007 with more than 250 rabbits in squalid conditions. In a plea deal, she was forbidden to have animals for five years.

Before her conviction, police said, she broke into a holding area to retrieve her rabbits. Four months after the plea deal, she was sent to jail for three days for having a rabbit.

She was charged with one count of Felony Having A Rabbit.

Here is how her latest arrest played out:

Police:  Ma’am, this is the police.  Please open your door.

Miriam (the woman):  Oh hello officers, I was not expecting you.  Whatsoever seems to be the problem?

Police:  Just a routine check-in.  What’s that smell in here?  It smells like cedar chips and poop.  Have you been using rabbits, ma’am?

Miriam:  Oh no, that’s the old Miriam.  The new Miriam hasn’t done rabbits in months.  Rabbits don’t even do it for me anymore.

Police:  Do you mind if we have a look around?  [opens the closet door.  Rabbits.]

Miriam:  Those aren’t mine!  I don’t know how those got there!  I’m just holding them for a friend!

Police:  Ma’am, you have the right to remain silent-

Miriam:  The f*cking rabbit dealers, man, that’s who you want, I just got messed up in the wrong crowd!  I pay my taxes, man!  You’re f*cking fascists!  I thought this was America!  Come on Floppy!  [Tries to grab rabbit, as police struggle with her, but rabbit turns away, as if to say, "I'm sorry."]  Floppy, what the…  Floppy, you f*cking snitch!  You know what happens to f*cking snitch rabbits, Floppy, DO YOU KNOW??  I swear to God when I get out I will track you down and sell you to British people!
