LOCAL MEWS

The Village lost a speshul little resident on October 21, when Graci Snowta lost her battle with her kittney diseases. She did well to the end, but the illness was too much, and Grace followed Nikki off on that speshul walky-walk to the Rainbow Bridge. She was a joy to be around, and will be grately missed. She is surbibed by her sad pawrents SnowtaMom and Dad, her many siblinkits, and her frends in the Village. Altho we miss her more than words can tell, we are happy that the little Monkey is well and healthy again ... See you again someday, Naeng ... you live on in all our harts .... {{{ }}}

The Wiscats got a batch of some homegrown catnip from a frend, and had quite the nip pardee the other day. Sophie Wiscat also got a nice playtime wif the laser dot, and who would eber know she wasn’t a lil kitten.

Meanwhile, Spencer Furlorida has been feelin a bit more at ease around Katie the goggie, and has been comin down more from his high purrches. He sleeps on the beds, and enjoys cuddles wif his hoomans.
= Trick or Treet! =
Gabby MaineCat was so into the Halloween season, that bein all in oranje, she desided that would be a fine punkin costume. She slipped out the door on Halloween, but was immediately nabbed by her mom. No trick or treetin fur her!
Wilbur StLouie was also rumored to have been out trick or treetin on Halloween, altho if he was, he kept his stash of treets all fur himself. His costume was also secret, so that superhero or ghost on your doorstep just might have been Willie ...
