This sneaky kitten is a terrible and adorable little stalker

Cats are natural predators. They can't help but hunt and stalk. This one just happens to be exceedingly bad at it.The 8-week-old kitten in question belongs to Twitter user @_TakivaBreanna. Her baby cat has developed a habit of hiding just behind a wall whenever she knows her human is approaching and then leaping out at just the right moment to surprise her much larger prey.That's the apparent intent, anyway. The execution... could be better. See for yourself.> My 8 week old kitten started doing this thing to where she will know i'm about to come in the room and she will hide by the bathroom door and jump out to scare me when i'm walking up. just thought I'd share this cuteness pic.twitter.com/SOz1ckGGpr> > -- BAE (@_TakivaBreanna) June 30, 2019Listen, Tiny Cat. You have to be smarter about this. When your human sees you peering out from behind the wall, that means she knows you're lying in wait. Your efforts to scurry into position at the last minute don't really help, given that you've already been spotted.Let's also talk about that pounce. What the eff, my little feline friend? You didn't jump forward at your prey; you jumped sideways, swinging your paws pointlessly through empty air. You shouldn't be hunting your person, let's be clear. But you're never going to catch any prey at all if you think that pounce is effective.What I'm saying is: cat better, little kitty. And don't hunt your person! You'll learn. You have a mama who loves you. She's already turned you into an internet star. We can't wait to see what you'll do next. WATCH: Your cat can achieve ultimate chill with this portable hammock

Schumer: ATF should investigate Dominican Republic deaths
by Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines | June 30, 2019 at 6:59 pm
|
The Senate's top Democrat said Sunday that the U.S. government should step up efforts to investigate the deaths of at least eight Americans in the Dominican Republic this year. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives should lend support to the FBI and local law enforcement, said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., noting the agency has offices in the Caribbean and the technical and forensic expertise that could aid the investigation. "Given that we still have a whole lot of questions and very few answers into just what, if anything, is cause for the recent spate of sicknesses and several deaths of Americans in the Dominican Republic, the feds should double their efforts on helping get to the bottom of things," Schumer said in a statement.
