Rod Ponton a Texas lawyer accidentally left a kitten filter on during a video conference call with a judge and was unable to change it, eventually responding to a judge’s query about why he was being addressed by a digital feline by saying:
“I’m here live. I am not a cat.”

The Cats of Hanover Facebook Group (set up by Rosie) has been involved with local cat charities for a number of years now.
Under the guise of Santa Paws, and in conjunction with Snowcats Brighton, a cat Advent Calendar was organised during December and £350 raised for Cats Protection Brighton.
As per Cats Protection:
"The Santa Paws advent calendar event organised by Snowcats Brighton, a group that helps raise funds for local cat charities, has raised £350 for Cats Protection Brighton & District. More than 20 local professional and amateur artists, including a budding young artist of seven years old, donated artworks for the event.
From 1-24 December, a different artwork was displayed in the window of the Dover Castle Pub in Hanover, which usually hosts the Hanover Cat Pawtrait Exhibition during the Brighton Festival in May. As this year’s event was cancelled, the organisers decided to delay the exhibition until December. However, when the pub was forced to close as part of lockdown rules on 16 December, the exhibition moved to the window of a nearby house.
Sales of the artworks were organised online and were delivered – via bicycle – by fundraiser Eva Hellqvist. She said: “It was so inspiring and fun to organise this fundraising event together with members of the Cats of Hanover exhibition team. We thought by doing an advent calendar window display we could put a smile on people’s faces during difficult times as well as raise money for cats in need. Thanks to the amazing artists and also a big paw up to those who bought the cat portraits and helped to raise money for Cats Protection Brighton & District.”
Throughout the event, Lucy Clifford ran the social media site, posting images of the artworks daily. A big thankyou from Cats Protection Brighton & District to everyone involved."
