July 30th, 2024 marks the end of an era for many gamers. After nearly two decades, Microsoft has finally completed retiring the Xbox 360. As the console heads into its finale stage of life (or rather, death), the many commodities and resources Xbox plyers have utilized are coming to a close.

Why did the Xbox 360 store shut down?

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.
