Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

A dog owner set up a surveillance camera on their own pet to test its obedience when left alone, with predictable and hilarious results.

The pooch was specifically told it is not allowed on the bed, so what did it do once the front door slammed shut? Leap upon it and after an exploratory sniff commence wriggling about like a mad thing.

The dog appears absolutely thrilled to be on the banned furnishings, unlike the cat in the video which seems to have taken its pillowy delights for granted.

The dog later shoos the cat away before stretching and deciding which part of the house to desecrate next.

In other devastating pet news, a study recently found that cats recognise their owners' voices but never evolved to care.
