You can bring your cat to a Brooklyn Cyclones game this week
For the first time ever, the Brooklyn Cyclones are inviting feline fans to join their humans at Maimonides Park for the aptly named ' PURRRRfect Game,' happening Tuesday, July 29, when the team takes on the Jersey Shore BlueClaws. It's the minor league club's cat-centric spin on the wildly popular ' Bark in the Park ' nights, and yes, it's exactly what it sounds like: baseball, beachside breezes and a few hundred whiskered companions.
Tickets to this historic meowment (sorry, we had to) cost $25 and include a seat in Sections 22 or 24—prime cat territory along the right field line—plus a commemorative PURRRRfect Game T-shirt (sizes S to XL). Each ticket holder can bring up to two cats, but in true cat fashion, they'll need to be secured in a carrier or on a leash throughout the game. No free-roaming floofs allowed.
First pitch is at 6:40 pm, which leaves plenty of time to get your cat into its tiny Mets jersey and brace for some very confused stares from the seagulls.
The Cyclones are known for their theme nights (past promotions include Seinfeld Night, Marvel Super Hero Day and, of course, Bark in the Park), but this marks their first official foray into the feline demographic. And with cat cafes, cat yoga and even cat film festivals all the rage these days, it was only a matter of time before America's pastime joined the litter box league.
While it's unclear whether there will be giveaways, partner shelters or community activations like Bark in the Park typically features, one thing's certain: Coney Island is about to get a little furrier.

Mimi Xu revels in everything Wimbledon debut had to offer
Tennis prodigy Mimi Xu revelled in everything her Wimbledon debut had to offer despite defeat to Emma Raducanu. The 17-year-old was defeated by the British No.1 6-3 6-3 and admitted that the task of causing a first-round upset against the former US Open champion was a bridge too far. But the Swansea native, who trains at the National Tennis Centre in Loughborough, enjoyed testing her mettle against her compatriot and revealed that the loss only strengthened her resolve to reach the summit of the sport. "My dream would have definitely been to have won, but I'm so honoured that this was my debut," said Xu. "I got to play on an amazing court with an amazing crowd, such a great atmosphere and against an amazing opponent. I just don't think I could have asked for anything different. "I enjoyed every moment out there. It's really put belief in me and ignited a fire within me that I can do this, and I belong here. I've learned so much from this match, from playing her, kind of how she deals with these moments and what the differences were there against a top player. I think I can do a lot of things in my game to improve it further." Xu was a wild card entry into the women's main draw — testament to how highly her star has risen in recent times. It was only weeks ago that Xu enjoyed memorable wins against Alycia Parks and Katie Volynets in Birmingham and Nottingham respectively. But none of those highs compared to the feeling of taking her first steps at a senior Grand Slam. "I don't know what I expected, to be fair," added Xu. "I expected anything to happen out there, but I'm so grateful to everyone who came to support. In my box I had all my old coaches from in Swansea when I was four years old. They all came to support me. I'm just really appreciative of all of them for going out of there way to come here. "I just really wanted it to last a tiny bit longer, but I loved every single moment out there." Xu won't have to wait long to create more magical memories in SW19, with the 17-year-old due to team up with Ella McDonald in women's doubles, where they face Rebecca Šramková and Linda Noskova. "It's a really good opportunity to go out there after losing singles, she said. To go out there and just enjoy every moment. Me and Ella, we get on really well off court. We're just going to have a great time out there. Whatever the result. If we enjoy every moment, that's a win."
