Furry Meet Up In California Turns Violent

In Southern California, there was a beach bonfire that was run by furries.

The "Furmeet" is a meet up of people who are dressed up as furry character or animal. They do whatever they want, whenever they want.

If you have ever had a chance to experience or witness a "Furmeet," you know how crazy they can be. You also know how weird it can be or even get.

If you haven't experienced one or don't know what a "Furmeet" is, I'm here to help. Furries are when people dress up as animals. They wear costumes of their favorite animals that they wish they could be. To be politically correct, they dress up as anthropomorphic version of animals.

These meet-ups don't usually get out of control or violent, but things definitely were not normal on Aug.12 at California's Sunset Beach bonfire. A pirate furry picked a fight with another person who was attending the event, according to The Daily Mail.

A fight broke out when an attendee was filming. One of the furries dressed as pirate started screaming at the man to leave over a megaphone. The man refused to leave and the furry ended up hitting with the megaphone.

Videos flooded the web of the scuffle. Once that happened, other furries stepped in and attacked the pirate furry. According to others in the furry community, this isn't the first time the two got into an altercation. Both requested to have each other kicked out of the furry community.

Police finally stepped in and restrained the pirate furry, which you can see on video and across other media outlets like OutKick.com. They're calling the police the "Paw Patrol." The furry with the megaphone was eventually arrested because of the fight.

We have more on this ridiculous but totally entertaining story in today's edition of Other News!

The black cat has gotten a really bad rap over the years. Some say the superstition against them has been around since the medieval period. But why? A few of them were in the wrong place at the wrong time? That forever linked their descendants to bad luck? Not cool. Also not universal. Black cats are actually good luck in some countries. There's a superstition in England that says giving  one to a couple on their wedding day will bring the marriage good luck. A married couple with a black cat is expected to have a long and happy life together. The superstition also says that the cat in the home will scare away evil spirits. Japan has a similar positive connection to black cats and love. Their tradition is that a single woman who has a one will have her choice of suitors to pick from. Japan also has beliefs that a black cat will bring wealth and prosperity. French culture carries a similar belief.

And Russia takes the cake on cats being good luck for financial success. According to foreignpolicy.com, there is a bank in Russia that will loan you a cat for two hours when you sign mortgage papers. The new homeowners are supposed to let the cat walk across their new threshold for good luck. The cat can be any color, even black. The bank owners believe a feline crossing the threshold will ensure the new borrowers will return the bank's money with no issues. So a black cat in Russia is not only good luck, but banked on for good prosperity. See what I did there?

Superstitions or not, we think black cats make AMAZING pets. If you've never considered getting one, here are a few reasons we think you should.

The contrast of a black cat's dark coat with their bright eyes is gorgeous. Many have yellow eyes but there are some with blue as well. Also, their coats, when well cared-for, shine in a way cats of other colors just don't.

If you have ever owned a pet, you know those vet bills can add up. Well there's a little-known secret that black cats are more disease-resilient than cats of other colors. That could mean less money out of your pocket.

Black cats are great at camouflaging at night. And Las Vegas residents know coyotes in these parts are getting worse and worse. Your little black fur baby has a better chance at eluding these predators than their kitty counterparts.

This is where that bad black kitty stigma is a good thing. Because some people are superstitious against them, they're not as likely to get stolen if they're out wandering around. And some people swear they actually scare off would-be home invaders too.

There aren't many breeds of domestic cat that mimics the coloring of their wild counterparts. The black cat is one of the few who actually look like a mini version of a big cat. And let's face it...with Min Pins and Teacup Poodles, aren't minis where it's at these days? When someone asks what kind of cat you have, you can say "A Min Pan" (mini pather). :D
