Petrified Cat!

There's a petrified cat on display at a Whitehorse pub -- the Dirty Northern Bastard. The cat was found when a historic building was renovated. It now sits on display to watch over the pub patrons.

This is actually the pub's second petrified cat. The first one was misplaced about five years ago. Fortunately for visitors, feline petrification is apparently common in Whitehorse.
