PrettyLitter Helps Cat Owners Monitor Feline Health

Since most households in the U.S. have at least one pet, a significant number of Americans are familiar with the joys of being a cat parent. But, of course, it's not all sunshine and rainbows -- especially when it comes time to take your furry friend to the vet.

And if you share kids with your soon-to-be ex, you probably already know that a divorce can be even messier when children are involved. But while the immediate effects of divorce can be damaging enough, there's also evidence to suggest that divorce can have major long-term implications for children -- and that might include your child's pursuit of higher education.

Under current divorce laws, there is a clause that states couples looking to get a divorce must be separated for four of the five previous years to be granted a divorce. A recent referendum saw 82.1% of voters wanted to remove this clause, making getting a divorce significantly easier as lawmakers will decide on an updated separation period. Charlie Flanagan, Minister for Justice and Equality, tweeted after the vote saying the majority support for the change in law was "very positiv...
