The end of an era: Last feline from Parliament Hill cat colony dies
After putting his name furrward for prime minister and bringing joy to millions of people, the last feline from the beloved former cat colony on Parliament Hill has died. Coal Taurozzi was with his owner Danny Taurozzi and his younger, adoptive brother Winston when he was given veterinary assistance in dying on Wednesday following a long battle with cancer, according to Danny. Coal had just turned 17 on Canada Day, and suffered a sharp decline in health this week. "He was a gentle cat with a heart of gold," Taurozzi said. "He was nice with everybody. He was not aggressive." 'We wouldn't have that in Washington' Coal, with his jet black fur and bright green eyes, for years greeted millions of visitors to the most powerful political grounds in Canada. He was dumped as a kitten on Parliament Hill and grew up in the cat colony, where he was cared for and fed by volunteers. Cats were brought to the House of Commons in its early years to deal with rodents. By the 1950s, their hunting skills were replaced with other pest control methods and they were banished. Volunteers then took care of the mousers, gave them names and built them a tiny village on a slope behind Centre Block for protection. At its height, the sanctuary had more than 30 strays that devoured close to $7,000 worth of cat food every year paid for by donations, not the federal government. For politicians, the cats were stress relievers. The felines were even given unofficial, informal RCMP protection. The sanctuary was also a popular tourist attraction. The Department of Canadian Heritage said Hill guides still get questions about the cats to this day. "Americans absolutely loved it when they came and visited the cats," Danny said. "[They'd say], 'We wouldn't have that in Washington!'" The sanctuary eventually closed in 2013 amid concerns about the animals' welfare. All remaining cats were adopted, including Coal who went home with Taurozzi. Donations gave Coal the best medical care available In the years that followed, Coal acquired a large social media following and even ran for prime minister in the 2015 federal election. Coal captivated national attention once again last year after his owner launched a fundraiser to help pay for his costly medical bills. Coal had a rare and aggressive cancer called salivary gland carcinoma, which later spread to his lungs. He was also fighting arthritis and kidney disease. Taurozzi had pet insurance, but it didn't cover Coal's full medical bills. He said Coal's medical care cost more than $30,000. He raised more than $15,000 through a Go Fund Me campaign, which helped extend Coal's life and gave him the best medical care available. He said he's thankful to everyone who donated, and wants Coal to be remembered as a Canadian symbol of compassion. "It's a special thing to have cats on Parliament Hill," Danny said.

Funny Cat Siblings Are So Chaotic, They Deserve Their Own Reality TV Show
Funny Cat Siblings Are So Chaotic, They Deserve Their Own Reality TV Show originally appeared on PetHelpful. Many cat parents have likely tried to make their feline companion's life better by introducing another cat. The idea is that a second cat will make the first one happier. But is this true? While we do not doubt that many pet parents will state with the utmost enthusiasm that two cats are better than one, we also think that sometimes cats can be cats. Felines, being quirky and dramatic creatures that they are, certainly know how to keep things interesting. But as far as these feline siblings are concerned, shenanigans are a way of life, and what is life is siblings without a little sibling rivalry? These two are certainly not afraid of mixing it up with each other and throwing some paws if necessary. Yeah, these two are definitely siblings in the most traditional, if not juvenile, sense, will sabotage each other on the cat wheel, slap each other with their paws, tackle each other, and disrupt each other when they are trying to hide in their happy places. For one of them, this is a shopping bag, which they, quite comically, fit into perfectly. However, these fluffy cat siblings don't just get into mischief; they also like to challenge themselves with enrichment activities like mazes. The white cat was able to figure out this maze pretty quickly. But their feline sibling had a tougher time, to say the least. They kept bumping into the walls and looking around confused, unsure how to find the exit. However, eventually they were able to use the process of elimination to figure out that if every turn they had taken in the maze so far was a dead end, then the exit must be the one turn that they had not taken yet. Sure enough, it was. As these two feline siblings show, cats can be chaotic, cute, clever, and sometimes more than a little bit confused, but whatever their personalities may be, there is never a dull moment with them!
