Car crash cat has face rebuilt
An animal lover has spent £7,500 on complex facial reconstructive surgery for her pet cat after it was disfigured in a car accident.Tanya Dickson, 41, of Ely, Cambs, had to a forego a new car she had saved up for, to pay for the work on her grey rescue cat "Hetty" - who despite the name is male - after the accident which left it in a coma.
A £2,500 x-ray and MRI scan revealed that the 18-month-old animal's nasal cavity had been shunted to the back of its brain, one eye had collapsed with another dislocated amid countless fractures.
But with round-the-clock care by vets in Kennett, Cambs, and surgery to repair a broken jaw with wire, insert a feeding tube into the cat's neck and stitch one eye shut, Hetty is now back to good health - almost.

How totally cool! It's great to see the love that people have for their "pet children" as well as the assholes that abuse them.

I could write a book about my thoughts on that video, but I will try to keep it short. The guy with the camera is an idiot, plain and simple. Regardless of what misunderstanding existed, the guy was way out of line resisting a simple background check. His attitude alone was reason enough to detain him.

Florida Woman Biting by Fox and Then Shot By Husband
Authorities say a Levy County, Fla., man accidentally shot his wife while trying to hit a fox that attacked her.
The couple told deputies they spotted an animal in their yard Friday morning and went outside to see what it was.
The fox bit the woman on the left leg and wouldn't let go, so she told her husband to get a gun.
The man fired a .22-caliber rifle seven times, killing the animal but also hitting his wife in the lower right leg.
The woman was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. The dead fox will be tested for rabies, but authorities say the results won't be available until next week.

Man faces assault charge after licking officer
Freeport police Sgt. Jay Newton took a licking from a drunken suspect and now he's taking a lot of joking from his fellow officers. It really was just that — a licking. While Newton was taking items out of the pockets of Ryan Halverson, 18, at the Freeport city jail early Wednesday, Halverson, who had his hands handcuffed behind him, leaned over and licked Newton on the left cheek. He tried to get in a second lick, but the sergeant moved out of range, police chief Jeff Pynes said.
Halverson, who was being booked on a public intoxication charge, was charged with assault on an officer. He remains in the Brazoria County Jail on $10,000 bond.The licking could be serious, Pynes said, because it could spread various diseases to the officer. "We want people to like our officers, but not to lick them," Pynes said.Since the incident Newton has been talking a lot of ribbing from fellow officers, Pynes said. "He's been getting a lot of lollipops in his internal mail," the chief said.

Couple finds a fox cub in their bathroom
Meet the sly fox who popped into the bathroom for a quick wash and brush up
Perhaps he felt the need to spruce himself up after a hard night scavenging around town.
Or maybe he decided to go to earth in the inviting pile of soft clean towels.
For whatever reason, this fox cub managed to end up inside Alan and Carol Heard's bathroom at six o'clock in the morning.
Mrs Heard was in bed when she heard scratching and went to investigate, thinking her cats were having one of their regular squabbles. Instead, she found Basil Brush Junior perched on the window ledge staring at her.
Mrs Heard had the presence of mind to take a picture of the intruder, which probably got in through the cat flap, before calling for her husband. Mr Heard, 72, scooped up the cub in his arms and took it out to the garden where it disappeared into the undergrowth. Before it departed, however, it took a last backwards glance. 'It was as if he was saying goodbye', said Mrs Heard.

Woman facing jail for 'exaggerating' car crash injuries
A road crash victim who claimed an £800,000 insurance payout after allegedly "exaggerating" her injuries is facing a prison sentence after insurers filmed her shopping and driving.
Joanne Kirk, a 45-year-old university administrator, said she developed a controversial condition known as fibromyalgia after a fellow motorist, Carol Walton, shunted into the back of her car on the A6 at Bamber Bridge, Lancs, in September 2001.
She claimed she was left frequently bed-ridden and could only walk 10 steps without the assistance of another person unless she used crutches or even a wheelchair.
Although Mrs Kirk originally sought £800,000 she finally settled for £25,000 at Stockport County Court last June when Mrs Walton's insurers did not dispute liability for the accident itself. However, insurers gathered footage of her allegedly walking, shopping and driving.

Man With Medical Marijuana Card Arrested
A medical marijuana cardholder who deputies said had too many plants was arrested Friday morning.
Detectives with the Marion County Sheriff's Office Street Crimes Unit served a search warrant at the home of Marc Kauffman, 56, just before 10 a.m. and found that he had 35 mature marijuana plants and eight immature marijuana plants in his house, deputies said.
People with a medical marijuana card can only have six mature plants and 18 immature plants, deputies said.
The case stemmed from a charge that Kauffman was involving a minor in a drug offense because he had employed a 15-year-old to help him tend his plants, deputies said.
