But Wendy Williams isn't feeling the warm and fuzzies like Purrfect's legions of adoring fans. Thursday on "The Wendy Williams Show" (weekdays on Fox) she poked fun at Cee Lo's relationship with the beloved feline by pointing out the fact that Purrfect isn't actually Cee Lo's cat; she was rented by the show. "I'm real disappointed, so that's not your real cat?" she joked.
It's true. Purrfect is actually owned by an agency called Benay's Bird and Animal Rentals, who have been supplying TV shows and commercials with pet talent since 1982. In an interview with Paw Nation, Purrfect's owner did say that despite the fact that the cat's a rental, Purrfect and Cee Lo are still "soul mates."
Meanwhile, HuffPost TV doesn't care if Purrfect is really Cee Lo's cat or not, we still love her.

"The Voice" has taken center stage this season, after its post–Super Bowl premiere and thanks to its sustained solid ratings. But when Vulture caught up...
As Jer's performance begins, we are instantly reminded of how ridiculously theatrical the performances can get on "The Voice": He emerges from a cloud of smoke in the back of the theater like the *NSYNC Pop Odyssey tour.
It's the last installment of the battle rounds on "The Voice" (finally!) and you know what that means ... You never have to look at the bedazzled discus Christina calls a hat ever again.
