This cat just got a whole lot luckier. He now has twelve lives instead of nine. Scratch his head and some of that luck will rub off on you!

Bonus: Today is also the Feast Day of St. Gertrude, patron saint of cats and cat lovers!

Sweet art

Twenty-eight-year-old Japanese candymaker Shinri Tezuka specializes in the traditional art of amezaiku, the cutting, pulling, and bending of molten sugar into elaborate lollipops. Amezaiku originated in the 8th Century, and Shinri is one of the last of the candy artisans. He sells his amazing amezaiku at his Tokyo candy store, Asakusa Amezaiku Ameshin. Here are some of his creations. Are they too beautiful to eat? Probably not, since they taste as good as they look.

Here’s Shinri Tezuka in action. Watch the magic happen!

Tradition has it that saying "Rabbit rabbit" on the first day of the month brings good fortune in that month. (Perhaps "Hippo hippo" brings an abundance of desserts. Heck, it's worth a try.) #rabbitrabbit #hippohippo pic.twitter.com/a0zjI4VL7d

As far back as Callum can really remember, he's been living in the Wild as the furless mascot of a wolf pack. But when his pack sends him back to live with his own kind—humans—fitting in is quite a challenge. He doesn't remember English very well, so he accidentally says his name is "Clam." He's spent most of his life eating fresh-killed elk, so dining with vegetarians is tricky. And when he tries to impress the Alpha student in the school cafeteria by stealing food, people seem offended!
