Per reports, one day, Missy looked out and saw a cat carrying a small animal by the scruff its neck. The first thing that came to her mind was, wow that kitty just caught a nice breakfast and she felt a little bad for the small creature. So, the woman kept her on the cat as it traveled with the small animal in it’s mouth. She was intrigued, got a little closer and realized this was no squirrel or chipmunk it was a puppy. Missy reportedly had a female dog that had just given birth to a litter of puppies.
She arrived at her place one evening, and quickly realized five of the puppies had vanished. They were too young to run away she thought. So, the unfortunate woman then began asking neighbors if they saw her heard anything because the puppies had magically disappeared. When she got to the woman’s house who initially saw the cat carrying the small mammal by the scruff; the woman quickly realized that the cat she saw was stealing Missy’s puppies! She told Missy how she watched the cat gently pick up each puppy one by one and bring them to a random shed or trailer where she could do whatever she wanted with the puppies out of view of any spectators.
Then as they began piecing all the missing parts together, they found the cat’s owner Ryan who informed Missy that their cat was recently pregnant, gave birth to kittens but tragically none of them survived. They told Missy that cat had been pretty depressed and acting strange since she lost all her babies. The mother of the puppies, Smoochie, had simultaneously just given birth to her litter at the same time, the cat lost her babies. For some strange reason Smoochie, had no interest in her puppies and her motherly instincts just weren’t there. This does happen, although not very often, dogs and cats both sometimes have a litter and basically just have no interest in raising them or just abandon them.
So, when the car saw that Smoochie wasn’t nurturing and taking care of her puppies, the feline’s motherly instincts which were already surfaced, had kicked into full gear. The amazing cat would travel over to Smoochie’s property and just pick the puppies up and take them to a safe shed. Smoochie would watch and just let it happen because she had no interest and being a mom. The cat had been pregnant just a short time before the puppies were born, so she had milk to spare. When they went to the shed where the cat was bringing the tiny canines, they saw that she had remarkably been nursing them, just as if they were her kitten! The dog was totally fine with the cat becoming their adopted mom and basically handed over all responsibility to the motherly feline.

a pixie hairstyle in a unique look that’s been replicated over the decades.
Though she transformed the fashion industry with her youthful style, the legendary cover girl recently revealed that she didn’t want the androgynous buzz that defined the look of the Swinging Sixties, and that she was just too shy to deny the work of a famous hairstylist in a “posh salon.”
Celebrating her 74th birthday on September 19, we’re taking you back to the 1960s when Twiggy first inspired the famous baby doll styles we still see today!
In 1966, the British-born Twiggy–whose birth name is Lesley Hornby–was looking for a trendy new look to help launch her career. Standing at only 5-foot-6, the aspiring young model was told she was too short to succeed in the competitive fashion industry.
Turning 74 on Sept. 19, the former supermodel recalled having her shoulder-length hair styled for some test “head shots” at London’s House of Leonard and meeting the famed British stylist, Leonard Lewis (professionally known as Leonard of Mayfair).
Lewis was looking for models to try out his new crop haircut.

In her recent guest appearance on Jessie Ware’s podcast, “Table Manners,” the former style icon revealed that she never wanted to have her hair cut short.
“I went in to have it shampooed and set and Leonard saw me, and he said, ‘Let me do my new haircut on you,’” Twiggy told Ware during the podcast. “I’d been growing my hair, for a moment I kind of went, ‘I don’t know whether I want my hair cut.’ But I was in this very posh salon in Mayfair so I was a bit too shy to say I don’t want it done, and I kind of nodded.”
The next day, Twiggy returned to the salon and sat in Lewis’ chair, bracing herself for what was coming.
“I went back the next day and I was in there for seven hours, where he cut it and then I went out and had it colored and then re-cut. Oh, it was mad,” she said with a laugh.
And though the androgynous look wasn’t what Twiggy was chasing, she quickly understood why Lewis earned notoriety as a stylist.
After perfecting her golden blonde crop, Lewis had British photographer, Barry Lategan, snapped Twiggy’s pictures.
“Leonard put it up in the salon and a journalist saw it,” Twiggy said, referring to the Daily Express fashion editor Deirdre McSharry, who while having Lewis style her hair, saw Twiggy’s daring do in the photos. “That’s how it all happened…When that haircut started, when that photograph was taken, that was the pivotal moment.”
The pixie cut highlighted her large blue eyes, which she emphasized with mascara on her lower eyelashes.
In a conversation with Vogue, Twiggy explained the inspiration behind her doe eyes: “I was also constantly playing around with make-up at home. I had a rag doll that had those spikey eyelashes, so I bought false eyelashes for myself and created what became known as my sort of ‘look.’”

The former supermodel also said as a youngster, when she wasn’t in the strict confines of her school, that she rebelled by wearing makeup and miniskirts to Saturday night mod clubs with her friends.
“I went to a grammar school, so it was quite strict. We wore uniforms and makeup was not allowed. So, on the weekends, me and my friends would sit like most teenage girls and play with makeup.” She continued “And that’s how that makeup evolved.”
And the eyes became part of her signature look.
A few weeks after the shoot for the Daily Express, several pictures–now iconic black and white images that launched her modeling career–along with the headline “Twiggy–The Face Of ‘66” appeared on the pages of the paper.
The following month, she did her first shoot for Vogue and her “life became a whirlwind.”
The quintessential mold for mod fashion, Twiggy was the role model to many women and, still in her teens, she became the first celebrity that Mattel used as a blueprint for a Twiggy Barbie.
Over the next several years, Twiggy’s name became synonymous with the trailblazing British designer Mary Quant, who revolutionized fashion with short hemlines, freeing the female leg.
After only a handful years of modelling, Twiggy retired in 1970 and explored stage and screen acting, along with singing.
Her movies include starring roles in 1971s The Boy Friend–a performance that earned her two Golden Globes–and Club Paradise (1986), where she played the lead alongside the late Robin Williams.
The America’s Next Top Model judge also worked on a fashion line exclusive to Marks & Spencer and ppeared on several of the brand’s billboard ads.
In 2011, she released the album “Romantically Yours,” that features cover songs like “Blue Moon,” “They Can’t Take That Away from Me” and “Right Here Waiting.” Her only daughter, Carly Lawson (born 1978) is a guest vocalist on some of the tracks.
Still on the frontlines of fashion, the stunning woman was ambassador for L’Oreal and she partners with other brands as a designer.
These days the icon is keeping busy with her own podcast, Tea with Twiggy, where each week she has intimate chats with her famous friends.
And despite all her achievements, Twiggy, one of the most recognizable faces of her generation, said her success can only be measured by the bond she shares with her incredible daughter.
After her father, actor Michael Witney, died at 52 at her fifth birthday celebration, Carly was raised by her mom and second husband, Leigh Lawson, whom Twiggy married in 1988.
“My number one is family. It always has been, even when Carly was little. If it didn’t work for Carly, I didn’t do it,” said Twiggy, who’s also a grandmother. “We went everywhere together but that’s why we’re so close now. The other day, she was saying, ‘I can’t remember a time when you weren’t there, Mum’ and it’s because I was always there. Even when I travelled, she came with me.”

The 24-year-old Tampa resident, Nashali Alma, was working out in the Inwood Park Apartment Complex gym, when Xaviar Thomas-Jones apparently approached her and attempted to grab her. Alma told the man to leave her alone, but he continued to pursue her.

This brave woman, Sheri, never thought that her life would flash before her eyes because of ‘one small bite’. But that’s exactly what happened to this amazing woman.
Just one day after the incident, the pain had gotten worse. That’s when she decided to seek care from a healthcare provider and was prescribed antibiotics. However, the medicine did not work as quickly as she had hoped, and the area around her lip continued to swell.
Before long, it was clear to the woman and those near her that her problem was much more severe than they had originally thought.
The doctors told her that they weren’t sure if she was going to make it, and the woman said in an interview: “I thought I wasn’t going to live through the night when they first told me. It looked like a big ol’ balloon on my face.”
Sheri was reportedly bit on the lip by a venomous spider and soon found herself fighting for dear life as she battled through hallucinations and hospitalization to cope with the venom that was coursing through her body and making her lip swell up to multiple times its original size. The spider bite occurred while the woman was in the middle of a kayaking trip. She was taking a course, which was a ten-hour kayaking trip when the spider bit her. At first, she didn’t even realize that she was bitten by a spider, and she tried to ignore the pain. But as it would turn out, she had a lot to worry about because the spider that bit her lip was a brown recluse spider, which is highly venomous and dangerous.
“I’m almost 50, and I’ve been floating in this river since I could swim, six years old,” she told Fox News. “I was just praying I wasn’t going to die because I hear horror stories, and you look on the internet and see all this stuff.” She added, “They told me they weren’t sure if I was going to make it, and I thought I wasn’t going to live through the night when they first told me. It looked like a big ol’ balloon on my face.” She was finally admitted into the hospital, and doctors quickly diagnosed her with a brown recluse spider bite. They treated it as such by giving her a dose of antibiotics to help kill off any remaining bacteria from the spider’s venomous fangs. The woman also underwent surgery on her lip so that they could remove all of the dead tissue from the area.
Luckily, the brave woman did pull through and survived. Now, she feels extremely lucky to be alive today. She encourages others who find themselves in a similar situation as hers to seek help immediately so they can hopefully prevent something like this from happening again. “If you think there’s anything wrong with your body, go see somebody,” said Sheri on her advice to others. “Because if I didn’t go see somebody, anything could have happened.”
