If the bra fits? Vets came up with a “more comfortable” way to treat a sheep in New Zealand that suffered from sagging udders after giving birth to lamb triplets, reports the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. Instead of surgery, they fitted the ewe with a store bought bra to keep her sagging mammaries from being dragged on the ground. The alternative would have been painful surgery or euthanasia.
Museum Mania There’s a museum dedicated to unknown animals in Portland, ME [go figure]. Then there is the National Mustard Museum in Middleton, WI and the Museum of the Weird in Austin, TX. But if you want to visit the Museum of Hangovers you’ll have to go abroad to Zagreb, Croatia, says the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. It is the brainstorm of a college student there and is dedicated to chronicling strange and, sometimes, disturbing tales of the “morning after.” Founder Rino Dubokovic says his aim is to make people aware of what can happen when they overindulge by sharing stories of odd and sometimes scary hangover experiences.
Twas the night before Christmas It happened on Christmas Eve in South Burlington, VT. A beloved pet, Cayenne the cat, took a stroll in the yard and decided to climb a tree. His distraught owner hastily decided to attempted a rescue on his own. But, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC], he wound up stuck with the cat in the tall branches. Firefighters soon arrived and rescued the cat and its owner and later issued this warning: “at no point is it a good idea to try and rescue an animal out of a tree yourself.”
