A cat which has been genetically altered to make cells that resist a version of the AIDS virus that affects cats, along with a jellyfish protein that makes it glow green, is seen in this photo. US scientists have developed a strain of green-glowing cats with cells that resist infection from a virus that causes feline AIDS, a finding that may help prevent the disease in cats and advance AIDS research in people.

Truthful Tuesday - Part Deux

My cats are assholes. Cuddly, fluffy assholes, but assholes nevertheless. Let me explain. My cats like to find plastic bags and chew holes in them. This includes the small plastic bags we use to pick up after the dog when out for walkies. I know this, because today, after the dog had finished his movements, I attempted to pick up the offending article with an incomplete bag.

As I said: my cats are assholes.
