Well this is one smart cat!
Looks like he took a chance and stole a babies bottle. Ingenious way of getting a drink of milk! I wonder what other tricks this cat has up it’s sleeve?
Do you have a pet at home that sneaks food whenever it see it’s chance?
Did you hear that Mexican scientists have managed to turn the countries national drink – Tequila – into diamonds? I wonder why the Russians didn’t come up with that with Vodka?
They are now seeking applications for their discovery.
The crystals are too small to be used for jewelry, but they could be used in medical and technology applications. For instance they could be used to detect radiation, coat cutting tools or perhaps as a substitute for silicon in the computer chip of the future.
Apparently the heated vapor from Tequila Blanco, when deposited on a stainless steel base, can form diamond films.
They began experimenting some 13 years ago with synthetic diamonds — made by a technological process, as opposed to natural diamonds, produced by geological process — from gases like methane.
Later they produced diamonds from liquids, and then noticed that the ideal compound of 40 percent ethanol and 60 percent water was similar to the proportion used in tequila.
“One day I went to the campus shop and bought a bottle of cheap tequila. I used it under the same experiment conditions as for a test with ethanol and water and obtained positive results,” Apatiga said.
After the first test with a common make of tequila blanco, the group is now studying the effects of more select tequilas to find the best adapted to the surprising transformation.

Wow, someone must have been thirsty!
Can you imagine being so flexible that you could actually drink your own pee? Not that most people would want to do that but … well … this little one sure can!
Chimps and well .. animals sure do some strange things, but then we do too, don’t we?
