HERO CAT FIRST PITCH

The superhero cat that saved a little boy from a dog attack made her debut on the diamond.

We told you last week that Tara would throw out the first pitch at a minor league baseball game yesterday.

You probably wondered how a cat was going to throw out a pitch?

Now we know!

This is video from last night's California Bakersfield Blaze game posted on YouTube.

TURTLE WEDDING CRASHER

A couple was enjoying a beautiful sunset wedding on a St. Croix beach this weekend, when a guest they didn't plan for showed up.

A giant, leatherback sea turtle, which is the largest living breed of turtles in existence, came ashore to lay her eggs.

These pictures were posted on Reddit.

The turtle apparently circled around, dug a hole, laid her eggs, covered them up and went back into the ocean.
