&lt;B&gt; LOCAL MEWS &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Movin Out and Movin In =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        As most of our Villagers know, it was determined not long ago that Tita Hulakit would not be able to make the move to Hawaii with her dad next month.  The area was scoured fur a new fureber home fur Tita, to no abail.  Finely, the purrfekt new home was located ... rite in our own fair Village!&lt;BR&gt;
        Tita will be movin this week to Pepsicola, to join Franci, Caleb, Oreo, and Willow as one of the furkids of Aunty Connie.  Eben bettererer, Unkle John is makin the trip on the aeroplane with Tita from Mew Jersey to Furloriday, and will stay a day to help them all get adjusted.  This gonna be a fantastical time, wif the two hoomans meetin fur the furst time, and the new ‘ColaHula fambly bein combined.  Concats to all!&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= More Movin In =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        The Village has welcumed a new fambly resently, as Trickzi and Hairy Hoodini have moved into the area.  They have buyed Nikki and Ash Snowta-Meowzers’ purreviously lonely house, and have been bizzy decoratin and movin their fings in.  Many residents helped with the movin and unpackin, and a welcomin committee is workin on showin them around the Village.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= More Movin Out =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        The Noblekit and Whee famblies has been furry bizzy wif their packin of their hoomans’ possesshuns, as the time to move out of their current homes draws near.  Bofe has finded sootable houses, and altho they is further apart than they’d like, bofe famblies seem to be happy with the pawsibilities of the new homes.  &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;

        Meanwhile, ober at Clover Blossom Farm, some of the chicketydoodahs has been gettin into their own tiffs as they mature.  The bigg roosters scared a lil roo, who was missin fur a day or so, but was finely found hidin unner a corn crib.  Iffen the bigg roos don’t start behavin, there may be announsment of a free chikken dinner at the Farm ...&lt;BR&gt;

= Litterbomb Misshun! =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;

&lt;BR&gt;
        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!)&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Full Moonitis =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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 ....&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= New Home Almost Reddy =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Hoodini Kit =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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.&lt;BR&gt;

Octobrr 11 - 17, 2009&lt;BR&gt;
                &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        BOO!   Did I scare you?  Well, it’s almost that time of year again, where lil kits dress up in funny costumes and get to begg fur treets, while bigg kits dress up in funny costumes and eat lotsa treets!  There’ll be several pardees going on that weekend in the Village, so make sure you start workin on your costume now!&lt;BR&gt;
        It’s been a bizzy week around the Village, besides the Halloween purrepurrashuns.  Some kits has been on the lamb (altho they should know that sheepies really don’t move fast enuff to eggscape furry far), there’s some annifursaries about, and who found somefin mysterious in a closet?  Keep rite on readin the Mews, wif all the up to date infurmashun!&lt;BR&gt;

        If you see braking news or have an item to contribute, the Mews wants to hear from you!&lt;BR&gt;
                                                                &lt;BR&gt;

                &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; LOCAL MEWS &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Eggscapes! =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        A couple of kits have made a brake fur it resently, which isn’t a good fing.  A goggie at the Shrimpie Clan’s house was unknowinly diggin a hole near the outdoor kitty pen, and Bartholomew desided to run fur it.  He didn’t get far ... just onto the porch ... and his mom soon figgered out where the hole was and patched it up again.&lt;BR&gt;
        Smiggle Kasiakit thought it would be fun when her dad opened the garage door (which is her place of residence) to run outside.  Smig goes out occashunally on a leash soopervised, but this time she was loose.  Lukkily her daddy scooped her rite up and got her back in, where she was safe and sound again.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Boom, Crunch =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        What is it with fallin trees lately?  Furst it was the SnowtaKit’s pen gettin squished, and now Mufassa and Isis Flcountry’s pawrents’ car got skwunched by a tree fallin on it.  The back winnow was broked up and the car not much good fur anyfing but parts now. Furtunately, a new truck was found, so there won’t be no trubble gettin the kits to vet appoinkments, buying cat food, etc.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Missterious Appearance =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Topaze and her mom found an interestin fing in a closet not long ago ... a metal bob trapp!  What is so missterious is that they neber seen it there afore and have no cloo how it got there.  It distappeared again just as missteriously, so hopefully it isn’t some wily bobs finkin they can trap Topaze in the trapp!&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= House Huntin =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Sammy Whee and his fambly is still huntin fur a new house, and fink they has founded one that is purrty neato.  They and the Noblekits would live a few miles apart, but they fink they would get used to that (eben tho they woulnd’t like it!).  The state is still yankin chains on how much greenpapers they get fur the old housies, so it is hoped that gets resolbed soon.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; BULLYTIN BOARD &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Bolunteers Needed =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        The Village Square needs to be decorated fur Halloween.  Anybuddy who would like to help make some decorashuns, and hang them up in the Square, please come to MeowChat Chat on Wensday.  All supplies is purrvided, and refreshments too, acourse!&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Meowipedia Purroject =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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 &lt;TT&gt;&lt;A HREF=&quot;mailto:&amp;#112;&amp;#104;&amp;#x6B;&amp;#101;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#101;&amp;#110;&amp;#64;&amp;#x70;&amp;#101;&amp;#x74;&amp;#104;&amp;#x6F;&amp;#98;&amp;#x62;&amp;#121;&amp;#105;&amp;#x73;&amp;#116;&amp;#x2E;&amp;#x63;&amp;#111;&amp;#x6D;&quot;&gt;&amp;#112;&amp;#104;&amp;#x6B;&amp;#101;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#101;&amp;#110;&amp;#64;&amp;#x70;&amp;#101;&amp;#x74;&amp;#104;&amp;#x6F;&amp;#98;&amp;#x62;&amp;#121;&amp;#105;&amp;#x73;&amp;#116;&amp;#x2E;&amp;#x63;&amp;#111;&amp;#x6D;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/TT&gt; until actual publicashun.

        &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;

&lt;BR&gt;
        As fur as we can remember, effurry seems to be doin purrty well, so we just gonna knock on wood and leave it at that ...&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; FOSTER CONNEKSHUN &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Mew York =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        A litter of furry young kittens resently becamed fosters at Tarrigo’s house, and sadly, three of them has passed on to the Rainbow Bridge.  Much glow has been comin fur the remainin to surbive and thrive.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; HOOMAN BEANS &lt;/B&gt; &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Unkle Bob StLouie =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Unkle Bob has sturjery the other day; he had them carp tunnelin in his paws and the sturjeon wanted the fishies back.  Bob is doin well wif his recobery, and will ebentually have the fish taked outta his other paw.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Unkle Frank Catnip =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Unkle Frank is still recoberin at home from his back owies.  The good mews is that he doesn’t need sturjery, and the medisins is helpin somewhat, but it will be a long time he feels real good again.&lt;BR&gt;

I haff somefing to say about most eberyfing. Dis may not be an every week type ob fing -- it jus depends upon how absurd my (and your) week has been. &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
- You know you liffs in too small a town if da hoomin's bestest place to buy a new pair of jeans is da feed store. &lt;BR&gt;
- How come Mom puts da hummingbird feeder, da boidbaff, and da boidfeeder rite outside my faborite window? Is dis her idea ob torture? .......drooooooooool...... &lt;BR&gt;
- If dere is litter scattered outside ob da litterbox, why isn't it ok to poop dere? Litter is litter I always meow.  &lt;BR&gt;
- Jus cause I like a dry food when it's in da wittul sample pakajes, does NOT mean I'll like it if da big bag is bought and fed to me daily. You'd think they'd get a clue! &lt;BR&gt;

= Sweet Angel =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Sadly, Honeydew Noblekit made her journey to the Rainbow Bridge early last week.  She gotted furry sick with kittney isshues suddently, purrobably bringed on by her strokes.   She is sadly missed by momDani and dadDon, hoomansisfur PattiWhee and Scott, her many siblins, and her many friends in the Village.  Such a sweet angel will always be remembered ... {{{ }}}&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= A Brave Rescue =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        The saga of the wanderin kittens didn’t end with them all bein grounded fur swipin a paddleboat last week.  Willow Pepsicola, Jordi Snowta, Maddy Wiscat, and fosterkitten Lingling sneeked out fur a late nite rondayvoo, and while Maddy made it home okeydoke and Lingling fell asleep on a bench, Willow was nearly swept away by The Grate Owl.  Her dad Vester grabbed her and saved her in the nik of time.  &lt;BR&gt;
        Jordi, off on a midnite stroll to the candy shoppe to see if Aunty Paloma (workin the nite shift) needed help, was also nearly attacked by The Grate Owl on her way back home.  Lukkily, her bruther, Bugg Idyhokit had followed her, and soon ressled the Owl to the ground savin Jordi from harm.  It was quite an ebening, and purrhaps the youngkits has learned their lessons about adbenchurin alone.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= The Tale of the Sinjed Tail =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        A missterry is about in the Village, when Miss Buttercup Midask9 resently turned up with a sinjed tail.  Altho her mom and dad and effurry in MeowChat Village has been searchin hi and lo, no one can find anywhere that lil BC mite have gotten burnt tailfeffurs.  Not a pilot lite, not an outlet shorted out, not a candle or nuffin.  Iffen anykit has any infurmashun on this odd occurrense, please contact Aunty Terri immediately.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Open Doors =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        There’s always been an open door pollysy at the Treehouse ... any critter is welcum to come inside, get a bite to eat, purrop up their footsies, and enjoy a rest.  Howeber, the open door is not supposeta work the other way.  Resently, a screen came off a winnow, and altho Wheesmom feared one of the kitties had gotten outside, all were good and stayin inside like they was supposeta.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Windy, Windy =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        It’s been real windy around Clover Blossom Farm lately, and the other mornin, the kits found out just how windy it really was.  A bigg hunk of willow tree falled down boom at 4 ayem in the morning, and landed rite next to their outdoor pen.  The tree squished the side and top of the pen (and broke the porch railin), but fankfully it will be easily fixed and nokit was hurted, and the house was eben okeydoke too.&lt;BR&gt;

&lt;B&gt; THE MEOWDICAL REPURRT &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Effurry seems to be holdin their own fur the most part.  Meadow Catnip is feelin betterer and eatin up, altho her sugar number is still kinda high.   Sammy Whee is sleepin a lot, but his lumpie isn’t any biggerer and he’s eating some.  Effurry else in the Village is doin purrty good, knock on wood ...&lt;BR&gt;

&lt;B&gt; FOSTER CONNEKSHUN &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Wiscatsin =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        The new Wiscatsin foster fambly was named last week; after careful considerashun, the ‘cheez’ theme was chosen.  Unfurtunately, the babykits got URIs, and one little one has gone to the Bridge.  Another two are doin kinda poorly, and momNorma has been keeping them warm and helpin them eat and all.  Hopefully they will soon recober.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Lawn Guyland =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Aunty Dottie has been workin hard wif catchin kits and gettin them fixed up, and resently catched some cats and kittens, incloodin a lil long-haired calico girl.   The ladies is tryin to catch the rest of the kitties soon.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Minnesnowta =&lt;BR&gt;
        &lt;BR&gt;
        Just when you fink the kittens is done ... they isn’t done.  No sooner did the last CloverBlossom barnkitten find a home when what did SnowtaMom find by the side of the road while drivin?  A wet and shiverin kitten.  This lil SOBOL boy will stay until he is older and can be tested and get rid of all his parrysites, then will be adopted out.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; HOOMAN BEANS &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Unkle Frank Catnip =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Unkle Frank has been havin a really tuff time lately with back owies.  He been in and outta the horsepiddle ER, but hopefully them hooman vetdokters will find some way to help him get betterer soon.&lt;BR&gt;

&lt;B&gt; LOCAL MEWS &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Adbenchurous Kittens =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        It’s not eben a full moon or nuffin, but some of the young kits in the Village has been doin some eggsplorin lately.  Lil Andy Connecticat was missin resently, and his moms couldn’t find him anywhere. Finely, they heared a lil noyse under a bed, and lo and behold ... there was Andy, litterally &lt;B&gt;in&lt;/B&gt; the bed!  He had crawled up into the linin of the bed thru a lil hole, and was havin a good time playin hide’n’seek afore he tooked a nap.&lt;BR&gt;
        MaddyLou Wiscat has been testin her boundaries lately.  Nuffin seems to stop her, and she scampered out the back door into the garaje the other day while her mom was bringin out trash.  Maddy ran and hided under the metalmonster, and her momNorma falled down tryin to grabb her (she’s okay), so Maddy stayed in the garaje by herownself fur awhile.  She soon discobered that it wasn’t much fun, and mewed at the door to come back in.  Altho the other Wiscats say it was nice that she wasn’t in their way fur awhile, they really did miss her and was happy she comed in again.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Nope, Not Gonna Go =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Paloma Abycat has desided that it isn’t fair that she gotta be put in the den effurry day when momMoira goes to work, and is purrotestin this.  While she useta go rite in the room, Paloma is now refusin, eben fur treets.  Paloma hears about other kitties runnin free all day, and finks it’s not fair.  She beleefs she should have the run of the house, and negoshiashuns are underway on this matter.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= A Sonic Squirt =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
            Some kitties adjust to a new home rite away, while others take their sweet time.  Sonic Midask9, the newest fambly member, has desided that he would be rite happy iffen all the kitties, goggies, and the newdad would all just go away and leave him and momTerri by theirownselfs.  He isn’t happy with the crowd there, and likes to spend most of his time on the counters and up high.  Resently, Sonic showed his displeshure by squirtin a printer that was lefted on top of the frijageezerator.    There, take that! Sonic thought to hissownself, altho it somehow did not make effurry else go away.  It did howeber, make the printer harder to fix ....&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= A Seaside Adbenchur =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        A coupla of young kits got themselfs in trubble (again) the other day when they desided to take a small paddleboat out in the pond to the island.  Willow Pepsicola and Jordi Snowta had a rousin time til they got tired, and Belle, the whale, had to push them back to shore.  There, Willow’s dad Vester gave her whatfore fur ‘stealin’ a boat, while Sheriff Mufassa FLCountry gave the kits cookies as a way to make them feel safe.  Jordi, who still hasn’t been founded out by her momkit and dadkit, finks she is in the clear and won’t get in no trubble at all.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Noyses in the Walls =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        SnakeBusters, Imp. is on the job when duty calls.  Franci and Tares Meowzers had been hearin noyses in the walls resently, and thot it mite be bobs ... or worse.  Russell Snowta, SammyWhee, and Nicky Catnip raced to the site, and are still lookin fur sines of introoders.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt; BULLYTIN BOARD &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Meowipedia Purroject =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        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 &lt;TT&gt;&lt;A HREF=&quot;mailto:&amp;#112;&amp;#104;&amp;#107;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#108;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x6E;&amp;#x40;&amp;#112;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x74;&amp;#x68;&amp;#111;&amp;#98;&amp;#x62;&amp;#121;&amp;#x69;&amp;#x73;&amp;#x74;&amp;#46;&amp;#x63;&amp;#x6F;&amp;#109;&quot;&gt;&amp;#112;&amp;#104;&amp;#107;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x6C;&amp;#108;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x6E;&amp;#x40;&amp;#112;&amp;#x65;&amp;#x74;&amp;#x68;&amp;#111;&amp;#98;&amp;#x62;&amp;#121;&amp;#x69;&amp;#x73;&amp;#x74;&amp;#46;&amp;#x63;&amp;#x6F;&amp;#109;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/TT&gt; until actual publicashun.

Septembrr 13 - 19, 2009&lt;BR&gt;
                &lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Snapp, Crackkle, Pop!  Crispy, crunchy, crackly.  Nope, that’s not the newest brekfast serial in the Village.  It’s Clover Blossom Farm!   We need rain!  Altho fings greened up a bit seberal weeks ago, there hasn’t been a drop of moysture around in nearly a month.  The grass hurts to walk on, and plants snapp off at the touch.  The corn is all dry, way ahed of skedule   :P  If any has some spare rain, or purrfurrably storms, would you send them our way?  A nice thunderboomer day would be so luvly ...&lt;BR&gt;
        It’s been a purrty darn good week around the Village, we is happy to say.  Not only was there no losses, but the Village gained a brand new lil member.

&lt;B&gt; LOCAL MEWS &lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Sweet Angel =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Anuther loss of a much-loved Villager occurred this week when Emma Kitkat made her final journey.  Emma was 17 and had some health issues, and she desided it was time to go.  She is surbibed by her sad mom, AuntyLinda, her many siblins, and many friends in the Village.  She joins her mamacatDelilah and other Kitkat Angels at the Rainbow Bridge in joy.   Be in peace .... {{ }}&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Road Tripp =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Willie StLouie desided to take himself a little road tripp last week ... litterally.  Willie, who normally stays nicely in his own backyard, chased a kitty outta his yard resently, and stumbled when he came to the bizzy road.  A metalmonster bumped him, and he gotted a bad broked legg.  Lukkily a naybor saw, and Willie got to the vetdokter rite away.  He had sturjery by a fancy vetdokter a few days later, and now has a metal plate in his legg.  He is recobering inside, and hopefully that’s where Willie will want to stay now.&lt;BR&gt;
= Purrapy =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        Spencer Furlorida has found a uneek way to help his mom when she gets a hedake.  He crawls up on her tummy, and purrs so loudly that Kaffy’s pains go away furry soon.  He is quite the purr-therapist, and may be givin lessons on this interestin method in the future.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= WhapWhapWhap =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        One kitten found out that you don’t mess with grammacat’s fings!  Rocket resently discobered grammaOnyx’s faborit toy sokkies, and was playin with them.  Foudini came along, and shocked at the young one’s furward behavior, whapped Rocket upside the head, and purrceeded to take the sokkies away.  She was not happy that Onyx’s beloved sokkies were bein played with by anyone else.  Rocket sez he just wanted to play, and didn’t know they was speshul.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
= Chikky Soop =&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
        There nearly was an uneggspekted pot of cheezy chikky soop at Clover Blossom Farm last week.  While Jordi was watchin her baby chix in their foster room next to the kitchen where SnowtaMom was cookin, a baby chick eggscaped.  Whoosh, she flewed up to the stove and landed on the edge of the pot!  Jordi was quite sure that this was going to be a new tasty dish, but SnowtaMom shooed the pesky birdy away and shut the door.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
