THERE’S NOTHING AS WHOLESOME AS A CAT NAMED “BISCUIT,” especially one who was rescued by a service technician after this cold kitty was left in a frozen, cold farmhouse basement. According to Wiersgalla Plumbing & Heating Co., technician John Van Toll stumbled across Biscuit while working. John felt an instant connection to the feline friend, so he brought Biscuit home, where his family instantly fell in love too. Biscuit now lives in their fur-ever home. Find your own feline friend at any local shelter.

THE NINTH ANNUAL JIG’S UP ICE FISHING CONTEST WAS NICE, ICE, AND EVERYTHING ... FISHY? Contestants at the annual fishing contest proved a dedication to fishin’. An estimated 1,500 people bundled up to face the freezing temps on Lake Wissota at the Feb. 12 contest. Why? For some good ol’ fashioned Wisconsin fun – and a chance to win the event prizes, such as a two-year lease on a Ford F-150 or a four-wheeler. The only thing left out of this wholly Wisconsin shindig is Kwik Trip coffee.

SPEAKING OF KWIK TRIP COFFEE, HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO DRINK PIPING HOT COFFEE out of sand castle toys, a squirt gun, Wilson the volleyball, a porta potty, the teapot that Jim gave Pam, or even a guitar? Now is your chance. Kwik Trip said in early February that they are out of coffee cups across the country, apparently due to the theft of literally all of their cups by a rival gas station. The good news: You can refill your own cup (of any size) with coffee at any Kwik Trip location until cups are back in stock.
