Tiny Orange Cat Tests Out Bath Time ‘Boats' Like the Cutest Little Sailor
Who says that cats can't enjoy the water? It is true that there are a good number of felines that do not enjoy getting wet. However, there are some cats that can still enjoy relaxing on the water if they have a little boat.
Just take this adorable orange kitten, Peaches, for instance. She just looks snug as a bug floating around in her little boats in the bathtub. However, not all of these boats are a good fit for her. That's why it's important for her to test each one out to see how she likes them.
Well, Peaches found her boat. Unsurprisingly, the simplest boat (a Tupperware bowl) turned out to be the best. It's funny how that works.
After she outgrew her initial Tupperware bowl boat, it was time for her to find a new one. Her mom got pretty creative with having her try out different types of little boats.
She had a Finding Nemo-inspired floaty boat, but that wasn't a good fit because Peaches might accidentally puncture it with her claws.Then, her mom gave her a Tupperware bowl boat wrapped in a cling film. However, this one was no good because Peaches kept trying to eat the plastic.
Her mom also gave her a dual pool noodle boat made out of two floaty pool noodles, which is actually pretty solid.
But in the end, her mom decided that the best boat for Peaches would be another, larger Tupperware bowl. And judging by the footage in the video, it's the one that Peaches seems to be the most comfortable and relaxed in.
As much as our feline companions are very clean animals, as any pet parent will tell you, they lick themselves constantly, sometimes giving them a bath is still necessary.
For example, a cat could knock something over in the kitchen, which creates a mess and makes them dirty. Or maybe a feline got tangled up with a skunk, has fleas, or recently got diarrhea, and some good old-fashioned scrubbing with soap and water is in order.
However, before attempting to bathe your feline companion is important to consider their personality and preferences when it comes to water. Some cats love and are fascinated by water, while others are far less enamored with getting wet.
For cats that don't mind the water, a shower or bathtub with a small grip mat for the cat to stand on is probably okay. But when it comes to cats that do not like the water, using a sink might be better.
There's a good chance that a cat that does not like water will try to get away, and since sinks are tighter spaces, it will be easier to control them while you are trying to give them a bath.
Peaches clearly enjoys the water. Although, it appears that she enjoys being on the water more than actually being in it. There is a good chance that she finds the gentle rocking of her little 'boat' on the water to be very soothing.
In many ways, this is probably like a relaxing spa day for her. But, whatever it is for her, what matters is that she enjoys it. We just hope that she enjoys her little boat as much as we enjoyed watching this cute video.

25 Totally Practical Target Products
A wet cat food cover because you love fuzzy lil' not the way their open cat food can makes your fridge reek. This adjustable silicone cover won't just protect your precious, dainty nostrils — it will keep their wet food fresher for longer, compared to just covering it with tinfoil or cling wrap. Promising review: "I have several cats with different diets of wet food. We've been using sandwich bags or Tupperware to keep leftovers fresh, but using both had its issues. With this cover, it cuts down on waste. Apparently, no past food smell to put them off food, and it is easy to wash. It has three different sizes within the silicone cover. The sizes are fixed within, so there is no losing the ones not in use. It fits well and snugly on cans 2.9 ounces and 5.5 ounces. Buy this right away to keep your fur baby's food fresh. Plus, helping the environment and your money!" —Lina408Price: $3.99 A brightly colored mini-air fryer that air fries, bakes, and crisps, so you can start saving tons of money by not getting constant DoorDash. You might even *gasp* find out that you actually like cooking?? (Or at least, cooking that requires almost zero effort.) Promising review: "This little 2-quart fryer is perfect for one or two people! Easy to use, very easy to clean. It cooks at 400 degrees, and while that isn't adjustable, it works beautifully on everything from fish sticks and tater tots to cheese sticks. It cooks in less time than the included guide states." —Kay EmPrice: $25.99+ (available in three colors) A Google Nest smart thermostat because not to literally sound like your parents, but we all end up wasting a lot of money on heating and cooling our homes when we aren't there. A Nest will allow you greater climate control, since you can adjust the temperature remotely from your phone when you're going to be away, or via voice control when you're there — just say "Hey Google, turn down the AC." (Also, don't tell your parents you now understand why they were always on your case about the thermostat — they'll never let you live that one down). Promising reviews: "Purchased as a Christmas gift for my in-laws, whose eyesight and mobility are fading. They love just 'telling the house' what temperature to be." —Kim"Easy installation and use. Just what I needed, easy to navigate, and not confusing." —Bhz1017Price: $129.99 A 6-cup rice cooker to help you finally achieve what seemed like an impossible kitchen dream: Cooking rice without half of it get burnt on the bottom of the pot. This countertop star cooks your rice to perfection, and can also steam veggies at the same time. Minimal effort dinner? Look who just won the Adulthood Olympics without even trying! Promising review: "Omg, this is a miracle machine! I always burn my rice, or it's hard as a rock. In this cooker, it is so soft and fluffy." —BreePrice: $23.99 A bug bite anti-itch tool that sucks bug venom directly out of your skin — so no scratching, no bumps, no lotions. Just apply the tool to the bite and then get back to enjoying the beach/BBQ/park/outdoor concert where most of the attendees seem to be mosquitoes. Promising review: "I wasn't sure how or if this tool would work. Unfortunately, I am a mosquito magnet. I finally purchased one and took it with me when I ventured outside. It didn't take long before I got bitten. I noticed that if I used this immediately, there would be no swelling or itching. If not used right away, it shortens the swelling and itching time. I tried it on my 4-year-old nephew as well because his skin reacts horribly to bug bites. Amazingly, his skin did not get the red, oversized irritation he would always get at all! I recommended this to his mom as well and am looking to buy more so I can carry one in my purse and one on the backyard porch." —Target CustomerPrice: $10.99 A pack of Neutrogena makeup-removing wipes so nights when you just can't get up and take off your mascara don't turn to mornings where you wake up on a ruined pillowcase, looking like a raccoon who just got caught pawing through a trash can. Plus, the wipes are compostable — just throw all the evidence of last night's failed cat-eye experiment in with your banana peels and coffee grounds. Promising review: "Neutrogena face wipes are great for gently removing eye makeup. I also like how cool and smooth they feel on your face as a 'wake up' in the morning." —RozziPrice: $1.99+ (available in three sizes) A vegan tattoo brightening balm stick because you sat still for several hours while an artist poked you over and over with a sharp needle, all in order to get that beautiful ink — so don't you want to keep it looking its best? Reviewers say this shea-and-cocoa-butter moisturizer can make even older tattoos look fresh! Promising reviews: "I love the Mad Rabbit Balm Stick! I use it on all my tattoos to make them look dark and fresh. The stick makes it so easy to apply, too! As a tattoo artist, I always recommend Mad Rabbit products to all my clients!!" —Taylor"This product is so great for tattoos. I've been using it for a year, and it keeps my tattoos looking fresh, bold, and bright. It's even brought fresh life to older tattoos. It is not greasy like other balms, and this stick is so convenient to throw in your bag and have with you at all times." —tjposantiPrice: $14.69 A rechargeable Theragun Relief messager that comes with three attachments that work on all sorts of aches and pains — so no matter how you strained that hammy (Jogging accident? Jumped up too fast to celebrate a nice score in Assassin's Creed?) you can have it feeling better in no time. Read more about what massage guns can (and can't) do, plus how to use them, at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I bought this item for my spouse for Valentine's Day. He often complains that his back aches and has been able to use it independently, but he will also use my shoulders. It's a win-win! I would recommend this product." —C. Rain Price: $169.99 (available in two colors) An iced coffee maker so you can stop spending literally the equivalent of a mortgage payment each month on your iced coffee habit. This machine can brew up a cold cup of caffeine in under four minutes, and even comes with a reusable tumbler. Yes, your barista will miss you, but I'm sure they'll move on, eventually. Promising review: "I absolutely love this machine. It's easy and affordable, and you can make it exactly how you like. Everyone needs one of these if you love a nice iced coffee without even having to leave your home." —BeMarie4Price: $39.99 A weighted knit blanket for anyone who's been curious about the stress-relieving benefits of a weighted blanket, but doesn't like the aesthetic of the typical fleece or quilted ones. This beauty (which is knit from weighted tubes, rather than filled with glass beads) looks like it was made to go with your Cape Cod or farmhouse home decor — and it also weighs a hefty 12 pounds, so you can truly relax. (Because how relaxed can you get when you know you're disrupting your interior design, really?) Read more about how to choose a weight, what these blankets help with, and how from the Cleveland review: "I purchased this blanket on a whim, and it is wonderful. I am sleeping so much better. It is exactly 12 pounds, and I find the knit material to provide some breathability while being sturdy, but soft. I traded my bead-filled weighted blanket for this and feel it is worth the price. It looks like a regular throw blanket, and I purchased the beautiful blush color, making it visually appealing. I recommend!" —FLPrice: $140 (available in two colors) An Our Place ceramic nonstick Always pan because it bakes, broils, fries, steams, braises, sears, and so much more — it can substitute for half a dozen kitchen items. That means more food options for you, and more room in your kitchen cabinets. We love a double-threat! The set includes an Always Pan 2.0 in original nonstick, a modular steam-release lid, a nesting beechwood spatula, and a steamer basket and review: "I love the quality of the pan and lid. The nonstick ceramic surface works beautifully. The pan heats evenly, and food cooks efficiently." —ChristinaPrice: $129 (available in five colors) A breakfast sandwich maker, so you can solve the timeless dilemma of how to get a delicious, convenient and piping-hot breakfast without putting on pants. Sometimes, technology truly is wonderful. Promising review: "Bought this so my husband has another breakfast option when he wakes at 4:30 a.m. He likes how easy and fast it is, and the sandwich comes out perfectly. As others have mentioned, we haven't experienced problems with the egg seeping out yet. I'd buy it again." —RuherePrice: $32.99 A white-noise machine, because if you are a light sleeper, this machine, with its adjustable volume setting and over 200 5-star reviews, will be a game changer. Some of us become more sensitive to noise while we sleep as we get older; so instead of cursing your upstairs neighbors (what are they, having clog dancing practice at 11 p.m.??), use this handy-dandy tool to wrap you in a cocoon of soothing sound. Promising review: "We can't live without this! As a family of four, each bedroom has one. We pack them when we travel, and it's usually first on my packing list. During the summer, we sleep with windows open, so it helps block out the sounds of crickets. Definitely needed if you sleep with a companion (human or dog!) who is a loud breather. I've had mine for at least two years and it's still going strong." —Mom411Price: $49.99 A sulfite-removing wine-purifying tool for anyone prone to wine headaches — trust me, once your friends find out that you know the secret to being able to sip freely without worrying about an aching skull later, they're all gonna want one of their own. Promising review: "I've owned this purifier for three years. It's awesome. Used to always get headaches from sulfites in red wine, but this took care of that. It doesn't change the taste of the wine either. It's a little pricey, and you have to buy filters, but if you get bad headaches and love wine, it will be worth it. Their customer service is also top-notch. We accidentally threw away our small red part of the device, contacted the company, and they shipped us a replacement part for free. This gets 5 stars all around! Cheers!" —Cat MilgarPrice: $79.99 A USB-powered fan because summer is coming, and you need to find the spot between "freezing in front of the AC unit" and "sweating so badly at my desk that I feel like I'm working on Excel sheets in a sauna." This compact, portable fan will help you find the sweet spot. Promising review: "So glad I purchased this. Affordable and really is pleasant. This fan is small, metal, and has one speed, but it does provide a nice breeze. I have even brought it into the kitchen occasionally to put on the counter while I bake/cook. I like that it isn't stuck in one position and swivels up and down nicely. Would be cool if it came in white or other colors, but I still love it." —CoastalMommaPrice: $15.99 A bamboo cutlery organizer that fits 48 pieces of cutlery — but its unique angled shape takes up half the space of a traditional, flat cutlery holder. With all that cutlery in you'll actually be able to find your vegetable peeler on the first try now. Promising review: "My boyfriend recently moved to an apartment with a kitchen that has less than generous storage space, and this compact organizer was the perfect solution to store his silverware! The drawer is truly tiny, and all of the silverware items fit easily!" —Small space hackPrice: $21.99 A 6-inch Kindle for anyone who is simply d-r-o-w-n-i-n-g under their TBR pile. This pocket-sized reader can go pretty much anywhere with you, so you can whip it out whenever you have down time and actually read more books, instead of succumbing to the siren song of checking a social media app (that you already checked five minutes ago). Promising review: "I love physical books, but as a working mom of four (one being a baby), I wanted something I could throw into my bag and go that was compact and charged well. I absolutely love my new Kindle. I'm on my fifth book this week!!!" —MamaoffourPrice: $109.99 (available in two colors) A mini waffle maker that won't take up too much counter space, but WILL make you realize you were a fool to buy frozen waffles all these years. This maker is quick-heating and nonstick, which = fast and easy weekday morning waffles. Yes, it can be done! Promising review: 'I love this waffle maker; it heats up quickly and works great!' —KMPrice: $9.99 (available in two colors) A robot mop and vacuum because it's the epitome of "work smarter, not harder" — or I guess, technically, it's the epitome of "let a robot work harder mopping, sweeping, and dusting both carpet and hardwood floors, too, while you watch Netflix." This little cleaning genius grabs pet hair as well as dirt and dust, you can schedule cleanings, and when it's done, it empties itself out. Is this the greatest roommate you've ever had or what? Promising review: "Currently obsessed with this thing. Love it so much. Such an improvement over the last robot vacuum/mop we bought and returned a couple of years ago. So far, I feel it is totally worth the extra money over the other brands. I have especially been surprised at the customization to cleaning different areas, from suction power to the rise of carpets and grain direction for wood floors! Also been surprised at it not getting stuck anywhere yet. It can go under and over better than my old robot did. Also, it is much quieter than I expected. I will probably start running the mop at night. The only con is my toddler is afraid of it, lol." —ElleBPrice: $649.99 (originally $999.99) A Google 4K TV streamer with voice search, so you never again have to waste precious minutes of your life typing out the titles of your fave shows (and don't even get me STARTED on having to delete everything if you accidentally make a typo). Plus, if you do lose your remote in the vast landscape of your living room, you can actually make it ring so that you can locate it. (Ah, turns out that the remote was stuck inside that box of Chips Ahoy that whole time!) Promising review: "Just what I needed! It looks modern and stylish. Perfect size, great features, and quality. Buying a second one." —MePrice: $99.99 A set of cabinet bumpers that do so much more than make your cabinets quieter. (Though, seriously, why do they make these cabinets so danged loud?) They can be applied to the bottom of potted plants and other items to keep them from scratching your shelves, and to keep pictures frames from making marks on your walls. Promising review: 'These are a great way to protect our walls from cabinet door bumps and dents. They stay on effectively and do their job as designed!' —melPrice: $4.79 for a pack of 20 A pair of velvet blackout curtains so that that rude ol' sun can stop interfering with your plans for sleeping in over the weekend. Reviewers say that these machine-washable velvet panels truly do block out the sun, while giving a more luxe look than traditional blackout curtains. Promising review: "I don't leave reviews often, but these curtains deserve one. They feel so luxurious. The black gives off more of a dark gray look. I painted my room a different color just to use these curtains; they're that good. Excellent light blocking. 10/10 recommend!" —jackiePrice: $60 (available in two sizes and colors) An SPF 50-infused IT Cosmetics CC+ cream because it provides full coverage AND sun protection, yet still feels light. Just a few swipes and you're good to go — so feel free to set your alarm five minutes later in the morning. Promising review: "Love, love, love! Staying power, flawless coverage, little product needed, color blends beautifully with skin tone." —TamaraPrice: $47 (available in 17 shades) A Bissell stick vacuum that's like a Transformer of household cleaning — it can be used in its full-sized stick form, or broken out as a hand vac for those hard-to-reach spots (always the exact places that need to be vacuumed the most). Rejoice and/or grieve: You no longer have any excuses to not regularly clean your house. Promising review: "Only had this vacuum for a week, but I absolutely like it. So far, it cleans well, the suction is great, and it is very light and easy to maneuver around." —Mj75Price: $128.99 A retro-looking portable Bluetooth speaker with AM/FM functions, because who said cute things can't be practical? This adorable faux antique gives you all the usefulness of a standard Bluetooth soundbar, but will actually fit in which your charming vintage home decor. Promising review: "I own one and liked it so much, I purchased one as a Christmas present. It's aesthetically pleasing, but also functional. It has a great sound and is portable. I use it in my kitchen and on my deck. Very happy with this vintage-looking item." —L2WestPrice: $39.99

WWE's Jacob Fatu sends heartfelt tribute to R-Truth after release
The post WWE's Jacob Fatu sends heartfelt tribute to R-Truth after release appeared first on ClutchPoints. The news that WWE R-Truth was being released has impacted many, including United States Champion Jacob Fatu, who sent the 54-time Speed Champion a message on social media. Advertisement While he portrays a heel character on TV, Fatu has kind words for R-Truth. He posted his message on X, formerly Twitter, and thanked him for what he had done. 'This is the life right here[,] Use! We do this so our kids don't have to see that other life we come from[,] dawwg!!' his post began. 'God [first], family, laughter, game, love[,] & knowledge always when it came to you! Love & respect[,] Big Bruh & THANK YOU [praying hands and the hundred points emojis].' It is nice to see WWE Superstars rally around R-Truth after he was released, including Jacob Fatu. He clearly made an impact on the locker room, and now they are showing their appreciation. The WWE Universe chanted, 'We want Truth!' throughout the June 2, 2025, edition of Monday Night RAW as well. Why did WWE release R-Truth? Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images. Why WWE released R-Truth is unclear. A wave of releases has occurred over the last couple of days. They also decided not to renew Carlito and Sarah Logan's contracts. Advertisement Releases happen every few months in WWE. In May 2025, Dakota Kai, Cora Jade, and Braun Strowman headlined the last wave of releases. R-Truth was an interesting decision, considering his place in the company. While he is not a main event talent, he has been a staple of WWE TV. He plays a comedic role that frequently gets other wrestlers to break character. He also had one of the top-selling T-shirts on the WWE Shop before his exit. His last feud was with his 'childhood hero,' John Cena. They had a match at the May 2025 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event. Cena is now a heel, so R-Truth came out in Cena-inspired ring gear. His T-shirt parodied Cena's, and R-Truth did his signature run to the ring. Advertisement However, R-Truth lost in a matter of minutes to Cena. It wasn't for the Undisputed WWE Championship, but R-Truth would not have walked out with it either way. Whether or not he ever returns to WWE remains unclear. The fans want him back, and we will have to wait and see if WWE listens to their chants.
