Animal Antics
Ray Ray the cat clearly did not want to be left behind when his family left their home in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, for Keene, New Hampshire, on Sept. 26, The Washington Post reported. After driving about 100 miles, Tony Denardo, Ray Ray’s owner, stopped the family van for a bathroom break and discovered the 8-year-old cat clinging to the vehicle’s roof. “How did this cat stay on there?” wondered Tony’s wife, Margaret. “And he was completely unfazed.” The family believe Ray Ray lodged himself in between luggage strapped to the van’s top as they sped along the interstates. The Denardos leaned in, stopping at a pet store for a leash, harness, backpack and food for Ray Ray, and he joined the adventure. Tony carried him across the finish line at a marathon in Keene, and Ray Ray “seemed to really like Times Square at night,” Margaret said of their stop in New York City. She plans to write a children’s book about her pet’s adventure.

Creme de la Weird
Gizmodo reported on Nov. 5 that doctors in the Philippines have documented the case of a woman whose armpits leak milk. Dermatologists writing in the journal JAAD Case Reports said the patient was born with extra breast tissue on both sides of her underarms, which swelled up after she delivered a baby and produced “milky secretions from the overlying hair follicles.” The condition didn’t bother her when she wasn’t pregnant or breastfeeding; doctors said it affects fewer than 6% of women.
