Ksyusha - the playful kitten

The excitable female kitten has been squashing itself into jars from when it was a few weeks old. The cat's owner has been taking photos of her animal and posting them on the internet since the start of last year.

‘It looks like she is stuck, but actually her body is not as big as it looks because of the large amount of fur,’ said Yuriy Korotun, who lives in Moscow.

‘She likes hiding in different places and is full of character.’

Kitten cries bring construction workers to the rescue

A kitten rescued from a chunk of ice in the middle of Pennesseewassee Stream last week has found a temporary home with a salon owner.

“I want to keep him,” said Chris Ryan.

One of the workers spotted the kitten from the top of the 60-foot-high crane stationed between the back wall of the Opera House and the stream off Main Street.

“I looked over and said, 'Do I see a cat?'” Paul Champagne of Chabot Construction in Greene recalled. “We've got to save that cat.”

After initial thoughts of using the crane to rescue the kitten were dismissed, Kelsey said he told his crew, “Just get him.”

Schnopps said the kitten gave him no resistance.

“We told them to bring him (the kitten) over here,” Hennessey said.

Kelsey said when he attempted to hand the cat over to the women at the adjacent Prime Cuts and Nails and Chris Ryan Hair Color salon at 426 Main St., the kitten kept jumping back over the fence to reach his rescuers.

Ryan said she took the kitten home and said he immediately fit in with her two other kittens and a Beagle dog. They were eating out of the same dish, she said. The kitten is black with white markings.

While the owner of the kitten is unknown, Ryan said she would like to adopt the kitten and give it proper care.

Sally Leighton, a board member of Responsible Pet Care, a no-kill and nonprofit cat shelter and adoption center in Norway, said she heard about the rescue Friday morning while downtown and went to the salon to offer assistance.

Ryan said she intends to make sure the cat is neutered and has the proper shots before she hands it back to its owner, should they show up.

“I want to make sure they take care of it,” she said.

The kitten was named Chabot by construction workers and Matrix by Ryan, who uses Matrix hair products. As a compromise, Ryan said Friday that she will name the kitty Chabot-Matrix.

Anyone with information about the kitten may call Ryan at 739-2338.

Disturbing images

These are some very disturbing pics. And I totally agree that Science may have found a cure for most evil but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.

I also think that we, humans, have failed. We have created most of the problems for these innocent animals & very conveniently many people have no time for animals. In fact, they think that animals don't even feel pain. Feelings are everywhere & every living being can get hurt.

People will give you 101 reasons for running over cats & dogs on the road. There are some hypocrites who claim to be animal lovers but they don't even adopt a single animal. If you really want to help them out, you can at least provide home to just one stray & that would make a hell of a difference. If you can't adopt even one animal, then you get one neutered or spayed & that too will help in the long run.

And the amusing part is that besides those animal abusers, we also have people who would do everything to stop us from protesting, as they believe nothing could be done & if animals die, it's no big deal...people are also dying. I have never been able to understand this fucking comparison.
