The sudden loss of anuther Purr kitty saddened and shocked the Village this week. Torti, a porch kitty only 6 years old, was found gone to the Bridge the other day. Otherwise healthy and actin okeydoke, it is unknown why she left ... purrhaps she had angel-siblins that she needed to be with fur whateber reason. She is surbibed by her sad momTessa, her many siblins, and frends in the Village. Roam free and live happy fureber, Torti ... {{ }}

The passing to the Bridge of Scooter Pi NY has been confurmed. He sneeked away to pass in solitude after some illness, and was resently discobered. Scooter is surbibed by his momMary, hooman fambly, furry siblins, and frends in the Village. Fly happy, Scooter ... {{ }}
= Cozy Sleepin =
Two newer residents of the Village ... Luna and Rame Funz ... has been not gettin along so well since newkitty Rame came into longtime resident Luna’s territory. It’s been a long time comin, but they is gradually learnin to get along. Resently, Luna eben consented to let the rambunkshus Rame share a bed with her, and this definitely indicates that a frendship is on the way.
Topaze Rules found a nice warm spot to sleep ... on top of the cable box! Elektronic blinky boxes has long been a faborite warm sleepin place of many kitties, and Topaze is furry happy to have discobered this neato nap-spot.

The SnowtaKits had a furry chilly day last week when bad lektrisity purroblems and potenshul fire hazard forced the power to be turned off to be repaired all day long. With no power, there not only isn’t lektrisity at Clover Blossom Farm, but no heat, no water, no plummin. Lukkily, the woodstofe kept them warm, waterjuggs kept them from bein thirsty, and durin the evenin the lektrisity finely was fixed, avertin a pawsible fire.
