This Tuesday, June 5, 2018 photo shows the detail at the Civil War Tails at the Homestead Diorama Museum in Gettysburg, Pa. Imagine, for a moment, that the Civil War had been fought by cats. Anyway, you don't have to imagine it. You can just head to Gettysburg and check out Civil War Tails in Gettysburg. The museum, housed in a home that dates to 1869 and once served as the girls' dorm for the soldiers' orphanage, features detailed, to scale, and historically accurate dioramas of the battle of Gettysburg and other Civil War battles and camps - except for one detail. All of the figures in the dioramas are cats. (Paul Kuehnel/York Daily Record via AP)
