Cats get a lot of bad press but actually they are amazing, loyal, lovable creatures. You can take that from someone who has had four cats at different stages in her life, or you can just watch this amazing footage of the family cat saving a young boy from a dog attack.
This was all picked up on security camera footage and has officially made family cat, Tara, the best cat in the world.
P.S: Here is a picture of my family’s cat, Trigger. He’s gorgeous and he knows it.

Beyoncé has responded to the rumours that Jay Z’s 100th problem, her sister Solange, is no longer her friend by posting a lot of pictures of the two together on her Instagram.
32-year-old Beyoncé uploaded a picture of them at Coachella last month, one of them hugging and one of the sisters looking happy together on the back of a truck. But where does this leave Jay Z? What really happened in that lift? Will we ever know? Maybe not, but some of the rumours are that Jay wanted to go to Rihanna’s afterparty, or that Solange has just never liked her brother-in-law and has flipped out before.
Tell us what you think.
It has been 10 years since Sex & The City was on our screens and to celebrate we have brought you some of the best quotes from Carrie & Co. Enjoy.
Samantha on oral sex: “Easy?! You men have no idea what we’re dealing with. Teeth placement and jaw stress and suction and gag reflex. And all the while bobbing up and down, moaning and trying to breathe through our noses. Easy? Honey, they don’t call it a job for nothing.”
Stanford: “Puberty is a phase… fifteen years of rejection is a lifestyle.”
Carrie: “Saturday night’s dinner came and went with no call from Big. My life was suddenly shit.”
Samantha: “Men cheat for the same reason that dogs lick their balls… because they can.”
Samantha: “Did you see that bulge…?”
Miranda: “Um. He was wearing a cup.”
Samantha: “Well honey, his cup runneth over.”
Miranda: “I said no white, no ivory, no nothing that says ‘virgin’. I have a child. The jig is up.”
Anthony: “Ugly sex is hot. Some of the best sex I’ve had is with people I can’t stand.”
Miranda: “What’s the big mystery? It’s my clitoris, not the sphinx.”
Carrie: “I think you just found the title of your autobiography.”
Miranda (leaving a message on Carrie’s answering machine): “Your good friend Miranda has just taken a piece of cake out of the garbage and eaten it. You will probably need this information when you check me into the Betty Crocker Clinic.”
Charlotte: “I read it in a magazine.”
Miranda: “What magazine? Convenient Theories For You Monthly?”
Carrie: “I like my money right where I can see it… Hanging in my closet.”
Carrie: “I’m 35. 35 is not 25.”
Miranda: “Thank God!”
Carrie: “I’m 35!”
Samantha: “Oh, shut the fuck up. I’m 140.”
Miranda reacting to Steve proposing after she finds out she is pregnant:
Miranda: “What are you? Fucking crazy?”
Steve: “That’s your answer!?”
Samantha: “Yes. I need glasses and I’m not ashamed. I have a sexy young man who loves to fuck me and I’m fabulous.”
Miranda: “Have you considered putting that on a t-shirt?”
Charlotte: “My vagina’s depressed.”
Miranda: (to waitess who asks if she wants anything) “Oh, I’m fine but why don’t we ask Charlotte’s hoo-ha if it’d like a side of fries?”
Berger: “I’m sorry. I can’t. Don’t hate me.” On the post-it note he broke up with Carrie with.
Miranda: “I can’t go. I’m just not ready to be separated from the baby.”
Carrie: “What???”
Miranda: “I’m kidding! Steve took him two hours ago. I’m free, I’m free!”
Carrie: “I’ve spent $40,000 on shoes and I have no place to live?! I will literally be the old woman who lived in her shoes.”
Samantha: “He tried to hold my hand.”
Carrie: “You mean to tell me that Smith is a hand-holder? And to think he once served us food.”
On always having an orgasm when she has sex: Samantha: “When I RSVP to a party, I make it my business to come.”
Carrie: “People go to casinos for the same reason they go on blind dates – hoping to hit the jackpot. But mostly, you just wind up broke or alone in a bar.”
Carrie: “And if you would shut your trap, I could tell you that I love, love, loved it! I loved it… Except for one huge problem. You have your leading lady running all over town wearing a scrunchie. A SCRUNCHIE!”
Carrie: “Miranda was a huge fan of the Yankees. I was a huge fan of being anywhere you could smoke and drink at two in the afternoon without judgment.”
Samantha: “I’m a try-sexual. I’ll try anything once.”
Courtney (showing Carrie her book cover): “Let me talk you through it. Blurred background, aah, fast paced city. And you, naked with nothing but your ideas.”
Carrie: “I get it. But, see, no matter how fast paced the city, I always manage to get my clothes on before I leave the apartment.”
Miranda: “Whatever happened to aging gracefully?”
Carrie: “It got old.”
Miranda: “I once was broken up with by a guy’s doorman: ‘I’m sorry Ms. Hobbes, Jonathan won’t be coming down. Ever.'”
Samantha: “It’s my week between waxes. I have three errant hairs and this asshole thinks I’m George Of The Jungle.
Carrie: “Well that’s horrifying.”
Samantha: “And you should see the bush on him. I need a weed-whacker just to find his dick.”
Samantha: “Ladies! Seamen, twelve o’clock!”
Miranda: “I pray when I turn around there are sailors, because with her, you never know.”
Samantha: “I’m back with Richard.”
Charlotte: “Richard whose death we’ve been plotting?”
Samantha: “I think I have monogamy. I caught it from you people.”
Carrie: “Now it’s airborne.”
Carrie: “I used to think those people who sat alone at Starbucks writing on their laptops were pretentious posers. Now I know: They are people who have recently moved in with someone.”
The world was shocked yesterday when a video showing Beyonce’s sister, Solange, physically attacking Beyonce’s husband, Jay Z, in an elevator went viral. The video is below and it is hard to understand the reason behind the attack as there is no sound. Take a look and tell us what you think.
The video footage was obtained by TMZ and is from inside an elevator in the Standard Hotel. The incident happened in New York after the Met Ball Gala last week. Beyonce later posted a cryptic prayer about relationships on her Instagram feed.
According to US Weekly, the two sisters flew to Costa Rica very soon afterwards for Kelly Rowland’s secret wedding to her long-time boyfriend Tim Witherspoon. It was a “quick, simple ceremony – only around 30 people,”
We thought these greeting cards from TheDogsDoodahs.com were hilarious. They might be funny but they also might lose you a few friends, tread carefully!
This music profile is a particular favourite: Dicepeople is a progressive audiovisual collaboration between Matt Brock and Rafael Filomeno. Brock plays and produces the music, and Rafael is the visual artist.
Dicepeople was originally set up in London, UK in the mid 1990s as an electronic side project when Brock was more heavily involved with industrial acts Noise Union and Replikator. In 2008, however, Brock transformed Dicepeople into his primary musical project and, with it, aimed to go beyond pure electronic music.

The tagline for Dicepeople is “dark electronica for the body and mind” because the aim is to create music which combines driving beats with evocative and emotionally engaging harmonies and melodies. The music has an electronic foundation with industrial and EBM components, and it mixes real instruments and voices with synthesisers to add cinematic depth and intensity.
Rafael joined in 2013 as a visual artist to take Dicepeople forward into the audiovisual realm that was always intended for it. The epic, visceral visuals produced by Rafael perfectly complement the powerful filmic soundscapes from Brock.
Dicepeople were nominated for consideration for the 2014 Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition shortlist by the judge Mark Muldoon, who said: “I’m nominating this dark electro-gothy outfit mainly for their full Soundcloud collection of 19 songs; there’s a remarkably high standard being maintained here”.
Dicepeople are currently working on a new studio album which will be released shortly.
The name “Dicepeople” is taken from the book The Dice Man by Luke Rhinehart, and the comparison to diceliving is reflected in the wide range of influences and schizophrenic moments found in the music and visuals. Dicepeople recordings and performances incorporate a large variety of styles and genres; but the mood, intensity and dark atmosphere provide the necessary coherence and consistency to bind them together.
Dicepeople influences cover a very broad range of musicians, filmmakers and visionaries including Art of Noise, Black Sabbath, Can, David Cronenberg, David Lynch, Depeche Mode, The Doors, Front 242, The Future Sound of London, Hoodlum Priest, John Barry, John Carpenter, KMFDM, Marshall McLuhan, Massive Attack, Mike Figgis, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, Nine Inch Nails, Oliver Stone, Pink Floyd, The Prodigy, Quentin Tarantino, Siouxsie Sioux, Tangerine Dream and Underworld.
Mario Testino’s Instagram feed was a great insight into the Met Gala, the legendary fashion photographer had one dazzling, glamourous picture after another on his feed. One of the cutest was this one of Charlize Theron and Sean Penn, who are now officially a couple. We particularity love the fact that Charlize looks like she is giggling.

Second place went to Beyonce and Jay Z. It was a hard decision but these two always bring the lovey-dovey cute.
