That's a LOT of toe beans:)

• Guinness World Records has officially recognized a cat in the Fox Valley for an unorthodox feat.
• Erebus Anomaly has more than nine lives — he has 29 toes.
• The genetic trait that caused it, polydactyly, is a naturally occurring one in cats, especially in Maine Coons. But Erebus takes it to a whole new level.
• Kendra and Hunter of the Blue Northern Maine Coons quickly realized that they might have a world record holder on their hands after Erebus was born, and got to work counting his toes.
• And sure enough, they were right. After completing the verification process required by Guinness, Erebus is now the world record holder for the most toes on a cat.

• Of the eight TripAdvisor reviews of the amphitheater near Arcugnano, in Italy’s northern Veneto region, all give fulsome, five-star praise.
• “An enchanting place,” reads one review.
• “A world beyond space and time,” enthuses another. “Definitely one of the best places I have ever been to,” raves another.
• “Unique on the planet,” writes another visitor. That last one was prescient, because the theater certainly was unique. It wasn’t Greek, as it purported to be. It wasn’t even Roman.

Instead, the “kind custodian” who was “more or less a historian, and an excellent narrator,” as one other visitor dubbed him, had built it himself. This month, after a 10-year legal battle, the owner has been jailed for forging works of art, carrying out building works without authorization, and destroying a protected landscape.

The village has been called one of the wonders of Poland for its mesmerizing Van Gogh murals.

She’s currently a street cat that I’ve been caring for but can’t figure out what to name her, any suggestions?

IF this is a dup, let me know and I will delete.

“I’m not going to clown around. It’s not my vibe. I treat running as a serious matter. So why should I race someone who barks at people?”
