Two brainy Texas pets are getting national attention after the women?s-interest blog Jezebel noticed a Wikipedia page detailing various cats and dogs who have earned high school diplomas or college degrees.

The site also lists Colby Nolan, a housecat belonging to a Pennsylvania deputy attorney general, who was awarded an MBA degree in 2004 by Trinity Southern University, a diploma mill based in Dallas. As part of an undercover investigation, the cat filed an application claiming to have taken courses at community college and listed several past jobs.
