Here’s a big dilemma for me: HuffPo now has a “Cats” section.
Cognitive dissonance

Why Evolution is True is a blog written by Jerry Coyne, centered on evolution and biology but also dealing with diverse topics like politics, culture, and cats.
Just admit defeat. The cats vs cords alone is worth the price of admission.
So, HuffPo has succeeded in making you squirm over your love of cats in a way that Michael Ruse couldn’t. All they had to do is agree with you!
It is said that “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” – don’t worry about it !!
I’ve always assumed Arianna *was* a cat.
Just go to http://cattonging.tumblr.com/ instead.
They’re sucking up to us, the cat-loving community, as the wily self-promoters that they are. Let’s not fall for it…
Fear not! Lolcats icanhazcheezeburger is still THE site for cats, with WEIT coming in a close second, and often FIRST (especially with the non-domesticated variety).
HuffPo’s site is SO LAST MONTH on most of those stories!
Umm, there’s a bit of cognitive dissonance there, I don’t think that really looks much like a cat:

HuffPo has a section called “Science”, too.
Using that section as a guide, one can only assume “Cats” will be mostly about dogs.
+1 😀
Ha Ha Ha!
This is a tough one, indeed.
This reminds me – did you see the new article about cats losing the gene for sweet taste? Read the Ed Yong bit.

If you can’t think of a good idea steal someone else’s. Those journalists are known to be a catty bunch anyway.
They must be getting deperate over there.
Yes, but it’s about how delicious they are.
Recipes.
Cat a l’orange.
Kitty parsesan.
An FLT (feline, lettuce, and tomato) sandwich.
And for dessert: Pussy push-up.
