Mom Realizes Daughter Too 'Quiet'—Not Ready for What She's Doing to the Cat
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When it became eerily quiet in her household, Iliana Carroll went to check on her kids, but she was left speechless after seeing how her daughter and cat were bonding. Carroll, who is known on Instagram as @ilianacarroll_, went around the house searching for her daughter after she noticed it became a bit too "quiet." Red flags went off that she could be up to no good. However, her July 4 Instagram video revealed the opposite. She walked into a bonding moment between her daughter and the family's 2-year-old calico cat, Sparks. Her daughter sat at her desk with Sparks plopped on top. Sparks was there for a makeover. Her daughter used a brush and started rubbing it on the cat, pretending to put on makeup on her. The two besties wore matching headbands in celebration of the Fourth of July, which Carroll revealed in the comment section was supposed to be hers, but her daughter gave it to the cat instead, a typical occurrence as these two are attached at the hip. "From the moment Sparks came home as a tiny kitten, the two of them have been absolutely inseparable," Carroll told Newsweek via Instagram. "Their bond is something special, playful, patient and full of love. My husband and I always say Sparks doesn't see our daughter as just her human. She sees her as Mom." The caption assured viewers "no cats were harmed" during this heartwarming playdate. Screenshots from a July 4 Instagram video of a daughter playing with the family cat by pretending to put makeup on her.

"So pretty. Kitty is such a good sport," wrote one user. Someone joked: "Hey so, this is really bad for the cat. If you put makeup on her, she will see how beautiful she is, run away and become a famous model and makeup artist." Another added: "If only you were actually paying attention to your kid, you would've noticed that she has some makeup skills and clearly the cat is serving face." However, others expressed concern about the dangers of using makeup on the cat, especially that close to their eyes: "Not to mention the cat will ingest all of that makeup when cleaning. It's a super cute video, and in no way the kid's fault, but please make sure you cleaned up the kitty before they started bathing."

Four men further remanded in custody in relation to major cocaine seizure in West Cork
Four men charged with possession of illegal drugs and possession of illegal drugs for sale or supply in relation to a major cocaine seizure in West Cork on July 1 have been further remanded in custody. The four appeared by video link before Judge Joanne Carroll at Clonakilty District Court and are charged over the seizure of 440kg of cocaine with an estimated street value of €31m at Courtmacsherry in West Cork. Court presenter Sergeant Tom Mulcahy said a file was being prepared by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). He said that it was the State's application to remand all four men in custody to appear again on July 25. Levent Gulay, aged 31, of Schwabenstraße, Neu Ulm, Bavaria, appeared with the assistance of a German interpreter. His solicitor, Myra Dinneen, presented a statement of means to the court and legal aid was granted. Conrad Murphy, acting as agent for solicitor Eddie Burke, was told by Judge Carroll that if a statement of means was filed for his client, Christopher Hibbett, aged 44, of Lower Park, Tresillian, Truro, England, an application for legal aid could be adjudicated upon. Solicitor Plunkett Taaffe for Mark Doherty, aged 40, of Waterfoot Avenue, Glasgow, Scotland, said the question of legal aid in relation to his client was still outstanding and said he was also seeking directions from the DPP in relation to the matter of venue. Judge Carroll said that Mr Taaffe was entitled to a response by July 25. Mr Taaffe also represented the fourth man, Ben Sandford, aged 42, of Woodgreen, Drum Road, Keith, Moray, Scotland, on behalf of solicitor Frank Buttimer. Jude Carroll further remanded all four accused to appear again by video link on July 25, 2025. This article is funded by the Courts Reporting Scheme
