Keith Urban recently wrapped the European leg of his The Speed Of Now Tour and sported a surprising ensemble during the final night of the trek: a kilt!  When Urban’s tour rolled through Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, the country superstar fully embraced the local culture, and his mother’s Scottish heritage, by donning a kilt on stage. In fact, Urban and his entire band sported kilts for the occasion.

But no, it was exciting.”  Top Gun: Maverick is in theaters now…

Bridget 7/29/2025

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS BRIDGET!!

Bridget was found at Three Bridges City Park after a kind passerby noticed her alone and suspected she had been dumped. She was brought to the shelter for care, but during her intake exam, we realized she was nursing and likely had kittens nearby. She was returned to the park.  A few days later, one of the staff members was able to locate Bridget and her kittens and bring the entire family safely to the shelter.

Since then, Bridget has done an amazing job caring for her babies. Thanks to her attentive mothering, the kittens are all healthy, thriving, and fully weaned. Now that her role as mom is complete, Bridget is ready to find a forever home of her own. Bridget is only 2 years old! 

Bridget absolutely adores people and loves nothing more than cuddling and soaking up affection. She isn’t particularly fond of other adult cats and would prefer to be the only feline in the home. She has been spayed, is up to date on her vaccinations, has been microchipped, and tested negative for FIV and FeLV.

Bridget is a sweet, loving cat who has been through a lot and is more than ready for the comfort and care of a permanent home. More information 

SINCE SHE IS OUR KIX CRITTER HER ADOPTION FEE IS ONLY $25.00!!!

The List for Monday, July 28th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So apparently, there’s a feud in Hulk Hogan’s camp... over what he’s gonna be buried in. Radar Online says Brooke wants a suit to give him national figure vibes. Meanwhile, son Nick's like, “Nah, brother, bury the man in spandex and a bandana!” Because nothing says eternal rest like yellow tights and a handlebar mustache.

-----

The NY Post says Aaron Rodgers won’t let his roommate flush the toilet at Steelers training camp... at night. Too loud. DK Metcalf legit has to text for permission to flush. I mean... Rodgers is what, 90 now? At his age, the real miracle is if he makes it to the toilet in time.

-----

It’s a bro-down at the country gym: Jelly Roll’s still working on those fitness goals, Luke Combs just dropped 30 pounds and says he’s feelin’ amazing—and Morgan Wallen? That boy showed up in Arizona looking like he’s been curling whiskey barrels. Someone online even asked, “Can I get tickets to the gun show?” Yes. Front row. No shirt.

-----

So there’s this EDM duo “Vavo” who thought it was a good idea to remix Toby Keith’s “Should’ve Been a Cowboy” into a techno banger. And by "good idea," I mean... country fans are screaming in horror. It’s like someone put a glitter rave hat on a bald eagle and made it dance to dubstep and we’re over hear asking….Why?
