			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Conan, a 7-year old bull terrier, was placed behind bars for some time, Monday, after stealing food from a Norwegian gas station.</p>
<p>And it wasn&#8217;t his first time.</p>
<p>His owner Liss-Hege Jeremiassen said: &#8220;He is incredibly fond of food in general and sweets in particular. He has run off a few times before and he always heads for food stores.&#8221;</p>
<p>Conan had snuck out of the house Wednesday night to the nearby gas station, picked out his favorite treat, a chocolate-covered rice crisp, and ate it as the cameras captured the whole thing.</p>
<p>&#8220;When he was finished he let out this enormous burp,&#8221; said store employee Elisabeth Roel.</p>
<p>She had attempted to chase the dog out but gave up after he growled at her. She then called the police, who handed the job over to Falken security.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Debbie Parkhurst, 45, a jewelry artist, had been eating an apple in her home when a piece got stuck in her throat. She attempted the Heimlich maneuver on herself but when it didn&#8217;t work, she began pounding on her chest.</p>
<p>Her two-year-old golden retriever, Toby, noticed what was going on and took action.</p>
<p>&#8220;The next think I know, Toby&#8217;s up on his hind feet and he&#8217;s got his front paws on my shoulders,&#8221; she said. &#8220;He pushed me to the ground, and once I was on my back, he began jumping up and down on my chest.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to Parkhurst, the apple piece dislodged and Toby licked her face to prevent her from passing out.</p>
<p>&#8220;I literally have pawprint-shaped bruises on my chest. I&#8217;m still a little hoarse, but otherwise, I&#8217;m OK.</p>
<p>&#8220;The doctor said I probably wouldn&#8217;t be here without Toby,&#8221; said Parkhurst. &#8220;I keep looking at him and saying &#8216;You&#8217;re amazing.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s one clever dog and one lucky lady.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nothing says &#8216;I love you&#8217; like a package wrapped in red bows and pink tissue paper containing a note that says &#8216;I love you&#8217; and the severed head of a kitten!</p>
<p>30 Year old Benjamin Gregory of Pittsburgh was arrested Friday after leaving said package at his ex-girlfriend&#8217;s doorstep. He is being charged for stalking and animal cruelty.</p>
<blockquote><p>Katie Waters, a humane officer investigating the case, said: &#8216;We have been unable to determine where the kitten came from. It definitely did not belong to the victim.&#8217; She also doubted that the kitten, which was black and between 3 and 4 months old, belonged to Gregory.</p>
<p>&#8216;This has been an extremely difficult case to work on,&#8217; she added.</p>
<p>Gregory is due to appear in court on Thursday.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The only thing that could have made this present any more perfect is if he had waited until Valentine&#8217;s day.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A family of three where just hanging out in their home in Cambridge, Maine, minding their own business when out of nowhere a 100-pound deer came smashing through their window, Thursday night.</p>
<p>It jumped over a sofa and ran through the house. Matthew Cunningham wrestled with the animal to prevent it from getting near his 4-year old son and was able to lock it in the bathroom.</p>
<p>Once Matthew and his wife, Lori learned wardens wouldn&#8217;t be able to help them until the next morning, they asked a neighbor for help.</p>
<p>They then used a piece to plywood to try to direct the deer away from the bathoom and through another window in the home office.</p>
<p>The deer eventually escaped through the window and was nearly struck by a truck.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was really scary,&#8221; Lori Cunningham said. &#8220;We&#8217;re so lucky no one got hurt.&#8221;</p>
<p>Her son, Zeke confused as to why a deer was in their home in the first place had said, &#8220;It&#8217;s not Christmas.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Joe Stokes shot and killed two deers while hunting in one of Florida&#8217;s wildlife management areas in November.</p>
<p>Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) senior wildlife technician Tim Farley logged in one of the deers at the area&#8217;s check station only to discover that it had all the male and female reproductive organs.</p>
<p>That must have been one confused deer.</p>
<p>Farley had also logged in a hermaphrodite the previous day and upon close inspection, he figured out that both deer were more than three years old and had never been bred.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t say I&#8217;m surprised. Even deer have standards.</p>
