  • Kitten was dyed with toxic blue paint and left in the rain — rescuers help her make a stunning transformation

    Kitten was dyed with toxic blue paint and left in the rain — rescuers help her make a stunning transformation

    It’s truly heartbreaking how some people treat animals, but thankfully there are also kind people willing to step up and give these poor creatures the love and care they need.

    That was the story of one poor cat who was cruelly dyed blue and then left for dead — but a rescuer helped her make an amazing transformation…

    According to the YouTube channel The Moho, the cat was discovered outside in the rain. Someone had reportedly dyed her with toxic blue ink for “cruel fun” and then discarded her.

    Animal rescuer Amauri Gomes found the cat and took her to the vet. They began the time-consuming process of carefully removing the blue paint off of her using pet-safe cleansers and oils.

    With time and patience, the rescuers were able to get 90% of the paint off. The process was painful for the cat and much of her fur came off, but they did their best to keep her calm and comfortable, and she was reportedly cooperative.

    They, fittingly, named the cat “Blue.” The rescuers fed her and provided medical care, and soon Blue began to bounce back: she reportedly had the “sweetest demeanor.”

    And once they had removed most of the blue paint, her true colors shined through, revealing a beautiful white and gray coat.

    Once the cat had healed, regained weight and was back to her natural colors, she was reportedly placed up for adoption.

    It’s unbelievable that anyone would dye a cat blue like this, but we’re glad she’s now doing well and back to her normal colors 💙 Thank you to everyone who saved Blue!

  • A Woman Who Became A “Vampire” By Covering Entire Body In Tattoos Issues Warning

    A Woman Who Became A “Vampire” By Covering Entire Body In Tattoos Issues Warning

    A Woman Who Became A “Vampire” By Covering Entire Body In Tattoos Issues Warning
    A fierce warning has been sent to those who are imitating her, by the woman who holds the Guinness World Record for having the most bodily alterations.

    Known as the “real-life vampire” due to her unusual appearance, Maria José Cristerna has been working on her large collection of tattoos for the majority of her life. She had her first tattoo at the age of 14.

    With 50 physical changes in total, the Mexican woman has cemented her spot as the most changed woman in the Guinness World Records for 2022.

    Among Cristerna’s unusual modifications are implants in her arms and forehead, multiple piercings, a split tongue, and an amazing collection of tattoos that cover almost her whole body, including her eyeballs

    Speaking to Guinness World Records, Cristerna admitted: “In the beginning, my dad didn’t agree with the idea. But after that, he took me to the tattoo studio to get my very first tattoo.”

    She emphasized her deep connection to art, stating: “Art runs through my veins. Since I was a little kid, I loved art, and now I can express it through my body.”

    She attributes her changes to an oppressive and abusive ten-year marriage, seeking to advocate for other women who have experienced comparable physical, mental, and emotional abuse. “The only way to escape from violence and abuse is by loving yourself. We came to this world to be happy,” she asserted.

    Her physical changes are emblems of bravery, tenacity, and liberation from her past.

    Although every alteration has particular meaning, Cristerna found that having implants placed in her arms and the pigmentation in her eyes to be the most agonizing.

    Celebrating her Guinness World Records title, Cristerna remains resolute in her pursuit of self-expression.

    “You always can reach your goals. There are no limits. Nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it,” she declared.

    She envisions covering 100 percent of her body in tattoos, proudly stating: “I don’t care what people think about me. I put myself in first place. I know who I am, and that is what is important.”

    She did, however, issue a cautionary message to young people contemplating similar drastic alterations, as Cristerna said: “The advice I would give is that you have to think about it a lot as it is irreversible.”

    She continued: “I love the way I look, but you have to understand that there are young people who are very open to tattoos and piercings and everything. It’s become fashionable, so we might get to a point where it’s not what we want anymore, and we might not like it anymore.”

    “So you have to think about it very hard in order to love it and be able to defend it your whole life.”

    The “Vampire Woman,” who earlier this week wrote about a new tattoo, is still getting inked, despite her advice to others not to get tattoos unless they were absolutely confident about them.

    She posted a picture of her most recent makeover on Instagram, showing an artist working on her back at a tattoo shop. A caption that goes with the image says, “One more stripe for my brother’s tiger Rene Camarena Laus Satanus.”

    Recently, on their 35th wedding anniversary, Michael took to social media to express his profound love and gratitude for Tracy. Sharing heartfelt photos of their journey, he thanked her for 35 years filled with “laughter, living, listening, and loving,” ending his message with a touching declaration: “Thank you for everything. I’m yours forever, Mike.” Tracy, clearly moved by his tribute, responded with, “Love you so much!!!” On her own Instagram, she echoed the sentiment, looking forward to more adventures together. Their public exchanges were a glimpse into the genuine affection and connection they continue to nurture.

    Their love story began in 1988 when they met on the set of Family Ties, where Tracy played the girlfriend of Michael’s character. Their professional collaboration extended to the film Bright Lights, Big City, and soon, their on-screen chemistry blossomed into real life. They married on July 16, 1988, and together raised four children: Sam, Aquinnah, Schuyler, and Esmé.

    In 1991, Michael was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease at just 29 years old. This life-altering news could have been devastating, but with Tracy by his side, Michael found the strength to confront it head-on. Tracy became his steadfast support, offering unwavering care during the hardest moments of their journey together.

    Michael has often reflected on Tracy’s unwavering presence. Even in the face of the uncertainties brought on by Parkinson’s, her loyalty and strength have been a constant. He recalled in an interview that when he first shared the diagnosis, Tracy didn’t hesitate, remaining a calm and supportive force. This sense of stability became the foundation of their relationship as they navigated the challenges ahead.

    Their relationship thrives on a deep understanding of one another. They listen, give each other space, and are always there when needed. Tracy believes that the key to their lasting marriage is truly being present for one another. Michael credits Tracy for holding their family together, acknowledging the immense love and care she gives to everyone around her.

    In 2021, Michael retired from acting due to the increasing difficulties of living with Parkinson’s, but his spirit remains undeterred. He continues to channel his energy into the Michael J. Fox Foundation, which has become the largest nonprofit funder of Parkinson’s research, raising over $1 billion. His dedication to finding a cure and improving treatments has never wavered.

Their bond is an inspiring example of how true partnership can withstand even the toughest of times. Here’s to many more years of love and happiness for this extraordinary couple.

  • ‘Why Did You Give Birth to Me?’ Boy Is Ashamed of Old Mom Until He Learns He’s Not Her Son

    ‘Why Did You Give Birth to Me?’ Boy Is Ashamed of Old Mom Until He Learns He’s Not Her Son

    A teenage boy shunned his mom for being old, one day asking why she gave birth to him. After she ended up in the hospital after a fight of theirs, he discovers she didn’t actually give birth to him.

    One Saturday, a thirteen-year-old boy named Tim was hanging out with his friends at a local cafe. Tim and his friends would usually spend the entire weekend together, before meeting again the following week while in school.

    That day, Tim’s mom Gloria wanted to change up his routine by inviting him to watch a new superhero movie with her. While it wasn’t her interest, she wanted to spend more time with her son and knew that he loved watching superhero movies.

    Gloria kept calling Tim on his cellphone, but he wouldn’t pick up. So, she decided to make her way to the cafe, knowing that this was where Tim and his friends usually had lunch on Saturdays.

    When she spotted Tim and his friends, she made her way to them, only to see Tim’s friends giggling. “Your grandmother’s come to pick you up, Tim!” they teased.

    Tim glared at his mother and walked up to her to stop her from going any closer. “What are you doing here?”! he scolded her. “You’re embarrassing me in front of my friends!”

    “Why am I embarrassing you, son?” Gloria asked. “I wanted to ask if you wanted to watch a movie with me. I want to be with you more, son, while I still can,” she smiled, trying to hold his hand.

    Tim shrugged off her hand and refused to leave his friends. “Leave me alone, I’m with my friends,” he told her. “Please leave before more people notice you!”

    Gloria walked back home sadly, wondering why Tim refused to be near her, especially around his friends. She spent the entire afternoon cooking up Tim’s favorite spaghetti and meatballs recipe, hoping he would make it home in time for dinner.

    When he got home that night, it was already half past ten. Tim went straight to his room, not even acknowledging Gloria’s presence in the living room.

    She followed him to his room and knocked on the door. “I waited for you,” she told him. “I made your favorite spaghetti and meatballs. Do you want some?” she asked him.

    Tim shot her another look, the same one he gave her at the cafe. “I obviously don’t. I would have gone straight to the kitchen if I wanted to eat,” he told her. “Leave me alone, I’m tired.”

    “What’s the matter, Tim?” Gloria decided to ask him. “Why is it that you don’t like being with me anymore? We used to be inseparable!”

    “Please,” Tim begged again. “Leave me alone! You won’t like what happens next!” he threatened.

    “What is it?” Gloria asked. “I’m worried about you, Tim. I barely know what’s going on in your life!” she said, trying to walk closer to him.

    “You’re such an old, boring woman! Everyone thinks you’re my grandmother. Why did you even give birth to me?!” he said, irritated that Gloria kept pestering him.

    Gloria felt a pain in her chest after hearing Tim yell at her that way. Before she could respond, Tim grabbed his backpack and ran out the door.

    “Tim!” Gloria called out. “Where are you going?” she said, following him down the stairs, and out the front door.

    Tim rode on his bike and left the street. Gloria tried calling out and chasing after him, but he was too fast. Then, she fainted in front of one of her neighbor’s houses.

    When Tim gets home late that night, he sees a neighbor standing in front of their front door. “Where have you been, Timothy!” she yelled.

    “Your mom wanted so badly not to tell you. But I think you deserve to know the truth, especially after what you’ve been putting her through,” his neighbor told him.

    “Why do you care? Did my old mother ask you to wait up for me because she couldn’t wait to sleep?” he asked.

    “You are so ungrateful!” the woman said, grabbing Tim by the collar. “You gave your mother a heart attack!”

    “I didn’t ask her to give birth to me! Why did she force herself to have a child, now she’s upset that I’m not the son she wants me to be?” Tim said coldly.

    His neighbor scoffed. “Give birth to you?” she said, pulling Tim to her home. “You want the truth? I’ll give you the truth so you stop talking rudely about your mother who has given you EVERYTHING!”

    When they got there, she handed him a folder with documents regarding Tim’s adoption and treatment. “Your mom wanted so badly not to tell you. But I think you deserve to know the truth, especially after what you’ve been putting her through,” his neighbor told him.

    Tim read through the papers and saw his adoption papers as well as the diagnosis of his cardiac disease. Gloria had put out a loan on her house to pay for his surgery and nursed him to life.

    “Now do you have even an ounce of pity or gratitude for your poor mother?” his neighbor asked. “She’s done everything for you, and you’ve been absolutely horrible to her.”

    Tim could feel the tears streaming down his face. He felt awful for how he had been treating his mother, realizing that she always had his best interest at heart.

    He took his bike and rushed to the hospital where his mother was in. In tears, he asks the nurse to take him to the intensive care unit where his mom was recuperating.

    Tim was heartbroken to see his mom with so many wires attached to her body. He rushed to her side, holding her hand. “I’m so sorry, mom,” he started to say. “I’ve been the worst son. Please, please get better. I promise we will spend a lot more time together,” he begged.

    It took Gloria another two months before she recovered completely, and she needed to change her lifestyle to lower her risk of another heart attack. Since then, Tim joined her in exercises and prepared heart-healthy food for himself and his mom every single day.

  • Riona was cruelly set on fire — after a year of recovery, she’s finally going to her new home

    Riona was cruelly set on fire — after a year of recovery, she’s finally going to her new home

    Riona was cruelly set on fire — after a year of recovery, she’s finally going to her new home
    It’s truly unbelievable how cruel some people can be to dogs. A sweet pup named Riona suffered as much as anybody after being brutally set on fire by her owner last year.

    But almost exactly a year after that horrific incident, Riona is finally going to her new home.

    Last June, residents in Nutbush, Tennessee witnessed a shocking site as Riona, a pitbull mix, ran down the street engulfed in flames. The smell of gas made it clear that she had been intentionally set on fire.

    “All you could smell was gas,” Mallory Mclemore of Bluff City Veterinary Specialists told Memphis Commercial Appeal.

    “She was burnt and covered in diesel fuel… It confirmed she was set on fire via witness statements,” Ginger Natoli, founder of the Tails of Hope Dog Rescue, told Newsweek. “We have obtained ring cam footage from a neighbor that also shows her running in a ball of flames.”

    Riona’s ear was burnt off, but thankfully her left eye was saved after emergency medical response. She was taken in by Tails of Hope Dog Rescue, and received medical treatments at Bluff City Veterinary Specialists. She was given twice daily full body wraps to protect her skin.

    A TikTok video of Riona’s story went viral with millions of views, garnering sympathy for Riona around the world.

    Riona began a long road to recovery, receiving a series of skin grafts to treat the fourth degree burns all over her body. While she was traumatized by the ordeal, Riona was also said to be in good spirits throughout her recovery.

    “She’s just always wagging her tail,” Mclemore said. “That’s what makes it even worse, I guess. Not that it would ever be OK, but just being so sweet and for somebody to do something like this to her. She just loves everybody.”

    “She’s actually kind of cute with one ear,” Natoli told the Commercial Appeal. “It makes her personality cute.”

    Tails of Hope continued to share updates of Riona’s recovery, and supporters sent in donations and gifts for the dog.

    Meanwhile, 43-year-old Quishon Brown was arrested for allegedly setting Riona on fire. Police charged him with misdemeanor assault and two felonies, aggravated cruelty to animals and setting fire to personal property. The case is currently awaiting trial.

    According to a Facebook post, Riona’s story also helped a new animal cruelty bill pass in Tennessee.

    Months passed, and slowly but surely Riona’s condition improved. And recently, almost exactly a year after she was set on fire, there has been an inspiring update to Riona’s story: she’s finally going to her new home!

    Tails of Hope wrote that they would be embarking on an ten-hour road trip to bring Riona to her new forever home.

    “Our goal was to get her a forever home, and that’s exactly what we found,” Natoli told the Commercial Appeal. “Riona has other dogs to play with, she has children to play with, she’s got a big yard to play in, she’s got a family that has experience in the medical field and an understanding of what her injuries were.”

    “Riona’s story is not coming to an end, in fact it is really just beginning,” the rescue wrote on Facebook. “We have all been a part of this miracle, our ‘warrior’ girl.”

    In a reminder of how the work of animal rescues is never done, Tails of Hope said that right after Riona left for her new home, they took in another rescue dog who had been a burn victim. “There is always another in need,” they wrote. Now we get to be part of yet another story.”

    What a horrible thing for this poor sweet dog to go through, but we’re so happy that a year later Riona is off to her new home!

    Mysterious Tools Uncovered: Nutcrackers from the Past

    Have you ever stumbled upon mysterious objects in your grandparents’ home? Well, a young man recently found himself in this situation after his grandparents passed away. As he combed through their belongings, he discovered something intriguing and decided to share his discovery with a friend.

    At first glance, these metal sticks seemed perplexing. What could they possibly be used for? Curiosity led them to search for answers online, and that’s when they unraveled the mystery. These metal objects turned out to be nutcrackers! Surprisingly, these nutcrackers date back to the 1940s or 1950s, making them relics of a bygone era.

    You may wonder, why would anyone need a tool to crack nuts? Well, these nutcrackers were specifically designed to remove the edible portion of nuts from their shells. Whether it was walnuts, hazelnuts, or almonds, these trusty tools came in handy. They were particularly useful for enjoying the deliciousness hidden within chestnuts, requiring some finesse to savor the nutty goodness.

    But these nutcrackers were not alone in their purpose. They often belonged to a set of seafood tools, complete with shell crackers and meat picks. This versatile collection facilitated the cracking of shellfish shells and extracting the precious meat within. To add a touch of novelty, some nutcrackers even came with a matching wooden bowl designed to resemble a chestnut.

    Intriguing, isn’t it? Many of us and our grandparents probably had similar tools tucked away in our homes. They hold not only practical significance but also evoke fond memories of times gone by. Remembering the taste of freshly cracked nuts or the joy of sharing a seafood feast with loved ones brings a warm smile to our faces.

  • Elton John thanks his fans for ’52 years of pure joy’ as he concludes his touring career.

    Elton John thanks his fans for ’52 years of pure joy’ as he concludes his touring career.

    After more than 50 years on the road, Elton John has officially retired from touring.

    The renowned artist performed his final tour act at Stockholm’s Tele2 Arena on Saturday, the final stop on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.

    “I’ve had the most incredible career, beyond words. How fortunate am I to be able to play music for 52 years?” John, 76, told the audience as he finished his concert with “Your Song” and “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.”

    “But, you know, if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be sitting here talking to you. You bought the singles, albums, CDs, and cassettes, but more importantly, you bought the concert tickets, and you know how much I enjoy performing live.”

    After the show, the five-time Grammy winner thanked his fans for their unending support spanning more than five decades.

    “My fans have been there for me every step of the way.” They’ve remained with me, they’ve supported me, they’ve been patient, and they’ve been coming to every single event,” he stated in a post-show statement, according to Consequence.

    “Tonight has been a beautiful night. I’m still processing everything, and I don’t believe it’ll take a while before I’m finally done touring. I can’t tell you how much I’m going to miss the fans or how much their love has humbled me – it will live on in my heart forever.”

    At one point during the event, the “Tiny Dancer” singer received a special message from Chris Martin, who was performing with his band, Coldplay, in Sweden at the same time.

    “Elton, we just wanna say, from all of us here, from all the bands and artists that you’ve loved, inspired, and helped, we just love you so much,” Martin, 46, said in part. “We love you tremendously. Happy retirement and we’ll miss you terribly, dude.”

    John, who has been traveling since 1970, took to Instagram earlier Saturday to deliver a poignant message before of the highly anticipated event.

    “What a journey this tour has been, and now we find ourselves at the end of it,” he wrote. “Tonight is the final night.”

    While John is no longer traveling, he and his management have previously announced that fans can expect to see him perform in some way in the coming years.

    “It’s essential to distinguish between Elton retiring from touring and Elton not performing his very last public performance for the very last time,” John’s husband and manager, David Furnish, told Billboard last November.

    “I know he will not be touring in any capacity. What you’ll see is the prospect of a spectacular one-time event or a short residency in a single place for a limited time.”
