In case you missed it on Twitter or Facebook, on Sunday I got my hair cut. And yeah, I got bangs. (Fringe, they call it here in Australia.) I’m still getting used to it. I haven’t had proper bangs since grade school. The Snook thinks it makes me look like my niece Indie.

Cat Odyssey: Indiana State Prison, Michigan City, Indiana. This is a lovely piece about this prison’s program where inmates can adopt a cat. Well worth a read.

What the–?! According to Alysha, the pet store at Birkenhead Point is actually selling SQUIRRELS as pets. This blows my mind for several reasons.

1. I have never, ever seen a squirrel in Australia. They are certainly not native, and I’ve never seen a feral one either. I would’ve thought they were illegal. Like hamsters.
2. In the U.S. squirrels are, of course, very common. Yet I’ve never heard of anyone keeping one as a pet in a cage. That seems kind of cruel and pointless.
3. They’re $1200+ each?!?!

I kinda want to visit the store now just to see them myself for the novelty factor.
