Did You Know That Kirk Cousins and His Wife Regularly Foster Dogs Whose Lives Would Have Been in Jeopardy Had They Been Left in Shelters?

Washington, DC - We know Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins has plenty of skills when it comes to football. But did you know he's also pretty big into playing fetch?

Millions of people will be watching as Cousins leads the Redskins in their playoff matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Among the adoring fans who will be tuning in will be a three ½-year-old wheaten terrier mix.

The dog named Gracie by her new adoptive parents was one of many pets cared for as a foster animal by Cousins and his wife, Julie. She stayed with them for the entire 2014 NFL season.

The Cousins regularly foster dogs whose lives would have been in jeopardy had they been left in shelters. Cousins often posts about the pets on social media and his wife sent FOX 5 photos of Gracie, saying in particular that she was a very tough pup to part with.

Football Fan Cuddles Cat During Chiefs Raiders Game At Arrowhead Stadium

A photo of a stray cat being cuddled inside Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium during a football match has gone viral, with the unusual sight raising plenty of whiskers.

“Just a man and his kitty in a sea of red,” Instagram user Max Chilen captioned the bizarre snap as the Chiefs battled the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

As if the cat’s attendance wasn’t enough of an anomaly – especially considering stadiums’ strict rules on restricted items -- the man seen holding the animal is decked out in Green Bay Packers garb.

According to Chilen, the foreign fan scooped up the cat after finding it wandering around inside. Another Twitter user shared a photo of the man appearing to exit the stadium with the cat in his arms.

"Great work by Arrowhead security tonight. This dude managed to sneak in an effing cat," Taco Salazar sarcastically tweeted with the photo and hashtag #StandUpJob

But Chilen said they got it wrong.

“The dude found it in the spiral walkway heading into the game so they kept it instead of giving it to security,” Chilen tweeted to an Arrowhead Pride reporter.

“At the 4th quarter security came and there was quite the protest to let him keep the cat. Then he went away with them but … I think they planned on letting him keep the cat,” he continued.
