Jeff Bridges the Cat Update

A year ago, we wrote about a little orange and white kitten who was found on the Queensboro Bridge. He was rescued (in a paint can, thanks to construction workers) and eventually adopted into a loving home. Now we hear that he's "very, very cuddly and loves to play"—and he's much bigger now, but still cute and freckly (pictured). If you're thinking about adding a furry friend to your household soon, head to the Empty Cages Collective adoption event in Park Slope tomorrow—there will be kittehs of all sizes.

rubyredhead,

In today's hyperconnected world, it's really not that hard to quickly Google something before going ballistic about it. It could save you a lot of embarrassment, especially if you're yelling in all caps. You'd be amazed how many results Google has for "kitteh."

kitteh is not a real word, but it is a LOLword, which works when referring to cute cats:
