Straight arrow: If you want to get into an archery competition with someone, stay clear of Lars Andersen because he is bound to come out on top. The Danish archer has proven time and time again that his archery skills are exceptional. For example, he broke a record when he consecutively shot seven arrows through a very small keyhole from 30 feet away. The wee opening, which was located in a door, was less than one centimetre in diameter. Anderson shot his seven arrows with barely a break between each successful attempt. He is also capable of shooting 10 arrows in less than five seconds. He is interested in historic archery and uses traditional methods in the sport.
Furry feel: What if you love cats, but your rented accommodation won’t allow pets? Or what if you wish to stroke a cat, but are allergic to felines? Worse yet, what if petting a cat eases your stress, but for the above reasons, you can’t have one? Then you might want to try bed linens and blankets made by a Japanese company called Nissen. To help cat lovers who can’t have a cat, these products are made with material that feels like a cat’s coat. When designing the artificial feline fur, the company asked cat-loving employees to test it for everything from softness to thickness, and even colour. The products in the line, called Neko Feel, sell very fast!
Ardent fan: People in Argentina love soccer, and for many, missing a World Cup soccer game would be a travesty. When the Argentina-versus-Croatia game was set to start on television during the last World Cup, an ardent fan in Buenos Aires realized that the bus he was riding during rush hour would never get him home in time. So, when the driver got off for a minute, the fan took advantage of the moment, jumped in the driver’s seat, and hijacked the bus! He drove it as close to his home as possible. Meanwhile, the driver called police, who managed to apprehend the man before he reached his house. After all this, the fan missed the game!.
Cell phone theft: Getting your cell phone stolen is one thing, but having 125 of them snitched in a grab-and-run theft is quite another. That happened to an unnamed New York City man. The fellow was a regular at a Fifth Avenue electronics store. He would buy many phones for the purpose of reselling them through his business. At the time of the theft, he had just left the store with three bags of the devices. A car pulled up and two men emerged, demanding the bags. The victim put up a fight, but the thieves got away with one bag, which contained 125 phones worth $95,000 (USD). Police are looking into the matter.

This week we have Phoenix – a handsome all grey male kitty who is about two years old! Phoenix came to the shelter because he was abandoned. Phoenix can be a bit shy at first but is very friendly once he warms up to you! He likes to weave in and out of your legs! Phoenix does have a dominant personality with other cats so it would need to be the right fit if he went to a multi cat household. Phoenix has a good appetite!
