The Gray Cat hopes you have a Happy Thanksgiving. He also promises not to jump onto your table or eat your turkey. Of course he’s no where near enough to get to your house but that’s beside the point.

An Albino Crow - In Case You've Never Seen One.

This unusual crow owes its snowy feathers to leucism, a genetic condition that reduces pigmentation while keeping its eyes dark.

The "pinky promise" originates from the Japanese tradition called yubikiri, which means “finger cut off.”

Breaking a promise was a grave offense that could result in cutting off one’s little finger as punishment.

It evolved into a symbolic gesture rather than a literal one.
