- Here's some promising news for anyone who has had strife in their lives due to a cat allergy. Researchers at the University Hospital in Zurich are working on a vaccine that could block what's known as the "major cat allergen" in felines, making them less likely to set off triggers in humans.

- The Department of Transportation has announced that miniature horses will still be allowed on airplanes as service animals. The agency was reviewing its service animal policies after complaints of passengers abusing guidelines for emotional support animals. But in an update released last week, the DOT made clear that "commonly recognized service animals" will be permitted, which includes dogs, cats, and miniature horses. However, airlines will not be required to transport other animals including "snakes, other reptiles, ferrets, rodents, and spiders".

- Tweets aren’t always sweet — sometimes they’re just “pointless babble.” Actually, they are 40% of the time, based on a study of 2,000 random tweets over two weeks. The researcher deemed 811 tweets as babble, compared to 751 (38%) as conversational, 174 (8%) as moderately interesting and 117 (6%) as self promotional.

- A masked robber was caught red-handed stealing from a vending machine at a high school in Orlando, Florida. The bandit was a raccoon who managed to get himself trapped inside the machine surrounded by snacks.
