LOCAL MEWS

= Litterbomb Misshun! =

A litterbomb misshun is in the works fur parts of Indeeanna. It seems the state hoomans has been bein real not-nice to the Whees and Noblekits lately. They not givin them enuff greenpapers fur their houses they is forced to sell ... they not givin them enuff time to move out and find a new home ... and they not givin them the greenpapers to move until way after they hasta be gone! That is some math that just don’t add up, and so a nice litterbomb misshun mite make them state hooomans recheck their calculators. Start stockin up the litterboxes now, and more infurmashun will be furthcoming.

= Movin on Down the Road =

Mufassa and Isis FlCountry has desided that they would like to move to their other gramma’s house in Michicat, so they and their pawrents is bizzy packin to make this move. Condishuns will be better, and hopefully good jobs and a good new fresh start on life will happen fur them all.

= No Fair, No Treet =

The Pepsicola Gang got a bit of a disappoinkment the other day, but not as much as their mom did. She buyed a fansy-schmansy stake and cooked it up ... only to find it was tuffer than the hide on an 80-year-old water buffalo. Aunty Connie tossed the stake into the food purrocessor to make a treet fur the kitties insted, and ended up laffin maniacally as the stake grabbed the blade and went fur a ride, refusin to be chopped one bit. She finely threwed the stake in the trash, to the diskapointment of all. (Psst, next time, Aunty Connie, put it in a pot of broth and simmer fur a few hours and make soup outta the meet!)

= Full Moonitis =

Mebbe it’s the full moon, but fings been kinda crazy around Clover Blossom Farm. The stoopid computer is possessed and wouldn’t go online fur a couple days, then did suddenly ... and now the SnowtaKits afraid to sign off. Ferris and Remi got into a drag-out, knock-down, fur-flyin fite the other day, and SnowtaMom hadda smack them with a towel a few times to get them apart (she didn’t have a beer in her hand to toss on them this time). Then Jordi aksidently got locked inna workroom fur hours and hours, cuz she sneeked in there as the door was being shut. Not to menshun the other full moon unmenshunables that go on around here ....

= New Home Almost Reddy =

Moxie Mainecat and the gang is about reddy to move into their new house. Their pawrents been furry bizzy paintin it, and now packin to move in. They is gonna have a grand time eggsploring the new place.

= Hoodini Kit =

Caleb Pepsicola seems to have a bit of Hoodini kit in him ... or mebbe he been takin lessons from Sally. Caleb somehow gotted himself into a room wif a shut door, and he isn’t tellin how he did it. Other kits told tales of them gettin into mysterious places as well, so mebbe a majic show will be held sometime in the future.


BULLYTIN BOARD

= Meowipedia Purroject =

Don’t furget ... there’s still time to send in entries fur the Meowipedia/Dikshunary Purroject! Bayli is nearly done with the furst edishun, but is still akseptin more entries at phkellen@pethobbyist.com until actual publicashun. Revishuns will only be made thereafter effurry 6 months or so, so get ‘em in while you can!


THE MEOWDICAL REPURRT

= Tireseas Shrimpie =
Tireseas, who had a bad eyeboll, resently underwent noocleashun to make him into a pirate. The sturjery was quite successful, and Tireseas is healin and doin well. He is now a First Mate-in-training on the Snow Princess.

= Maddie Catnip =
Maddie still isn’t doing too well with holdin her wate and eatin enuff, and her vetdokter suspecks that mebbe a limp foama mite be the cause. Maddie is a tuff gal, and has no intenshuns of gettin sick anytime soon.

= Willie StLouie =
Willie had his followup ex-rays and checkup after his metalmonster aksident a few weeks back, and his repurrt card came back with all As ... healed up as well as can be fur a bionic boy!

= Ferris & Larry Snowta =
Ferri and Larry both saw Dr. Joel the other day fur claw clippin. Ferri had a claw slitely imbedded in his pad and SnowtaMom couldn’t get it out by herownself. Larry also got his depo shot, so he can stop wheezin soon.


FOSTER CONNEKSHUN

All foster kitties seem to be doin fine rite now. The Shrimpie Clan got some wunnerful mews resently fur the rescue they work with: a cat-lovin hooman passed away and left almost 2 millyun greenpapers to several cat charities, includin theirs. They will get 400,000 greenpapers in a few months, which acourse would grate help any cat rescue.
