This 15-second ultra-high-definition video featuring a cat named Taters was streamed via laser from deep space by NASA on Dec. 11, 2023. It was part of the technology demonstration known as Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC), which is attached to the Psyche spacecraft traveling to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Graphics superimposed over the orange tabby cat illustrate several features from the tech demo, such as Psyche’s orbital path and technical information about the laser.

...and the follow-up story for the possum.

Saw this on reddit earlier. It's quite brilliant.

Thanks All.
First time having a pet put down and it was pretty tough. Not sure if being present for it was the right decision but didn’t like the thought of him being surrounded by strangers whilst it happened.
Absolutely did the right thing. It's not easy to watch, but never leave them alone.

Had to have my cat, Stanley, put down today. That was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.
15 years old and had developed a tumour in his jaw. Tumour had caused havoc with his teeth and he was constantly drooling and dripping blood from his mouth.
Had a family cuddle on the bed with him this evening where he was still purring away but then took him to the vet and he was put to sleep. Was over in seconds.
So long, Stan.
Sorry to hear that, Simbo...it's never easy. Don't know why, but I always think of this cat pic when someone loses their pet.

That was 100% deliberate.

You're such a miserable bastard on Halloween, RL.
I say this every year, but I feel very sorry for anyone who grew up without Halloween. It's great for kids, but wayyyy better when you're consenting adults....

Nice one Carradona
Not off-grid solar though, so doesn't count.

I personally think he will be eyeing a role for himself in the Saudi/UAE league in 2-4 years, similar to what he is doing now at PGMOL. That will be lot more lucrative than marketing the PL refs now. Marketing is important to keep the connection with Saudi/UAE but to get a role in future he will have to be seen as taking actions against mistakes and that he is the man to sort out. He won't give a flying fuck about throwing any referee under the bus in the process.
If he is looking to impress on the Saudis, then perhaps a beheading or two might be appropriate ?

Bought this for the wife's birthday next week. Possibly the best gift I've ever bought.
She always complains that the cats never sleep with her.

Thanks - we had a good time last night. Lots of fun and games.
I had written on the cake "you're now exactly half my age", which she thought was cute (poor photo, sorry)

My prediction is that he'll fuck off to Russia soon and move into Putin's waterfront palace.
Only reason it hasn't happened yet is that Putin needs him to be president. Once it looks unlikely, he'll be off.

uggh....the brushing....and hairballs.
Stick with the Russian Blue.
