The List for Tuesday, April 1st 2025

Welcome to The List,

CMA Fest is back, taking over Nashville from June 5-8 with ten stages, surprise collaborations, and country music’s biggest stars. Or, as locals call it, four days of honky-tonk traffic jams—but hey, at least the soundtrack’s good!

-----

Parker McCollum just shook up RODEOHOUSTON by announcing his most personal album yet, dropping June 27. Meanwhile, Luke Combs hinted on Instagram about new music. Country fans, prepare yourselves—your playlists are about to get real emotional, real fast.

-----

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are reportedly "practicing for parenthood" by getting a puppy together. Because, as we all know, babies and dogs are basically the same—minus the teething, tantrums, and college tuition. Solid plan, guys!

-----

John Cena is retiring… kinda. The guy whose motto is "Never Give Up" is, well… giving up wrestling—but let’s be real, he’s probably just suplexing into another career. He’s calling it “closing a chapter,” but knowing Cena, that book’s getting a sequel. Meanwhile, catch WrestleMania 41 in Vegas, April 19th and 20th, streaming on Peacock!

Coco and Leila 4/1/2025

Our KIX Critters of the week are two cats who have found they like to hang around each other. Coco and Leila.

Leila is a  sweet and playful cat who loves to spend her time chasing her favorite mice toys and snuggling up in her cozy bed. She enjoys having space to roam around and explore, but her favorite moments are when she gets some chin scratches – they’re sure to make her purr! She’s not too fond of being picked up, but Leila is a friendly, affectionate girl who loves attention and will happily hang out with you once she feels comfortable.

Coco

Coco is a sweet and playful 2-year-old cat She enjoys spending her time with her favorite scratchers and cat trees, and she’ll appreciate a cozy perch to call her own!

While she’s cat-friendly, Coco can be a bit selective with her feline friends, so she’ll do best in a home with either no other cats or with other laid-back cats. She’s also good with children, but she thrives in a calm, adult environment where she can relax and build trust. Coco loves to play, especially with balls, and she’ll entertain herself for hours. When it comes to affection, she has a special way of showing her love—giving sweet little “love nibbles” and gentle licks. Her soft meow will melt your heart every time.

Our KIX Critters are two for one!! total adoption fee $50!! that includes everything including the microchip. Find out more
