Cat Accepted to Prestigious Iowa Writer’s Workshop

Natsuki, a kitten from Bend, OR, has been accepted into the prestigious Iowa Writer’s Workshop and MFA program at the University of Iowa. The two-year residency program counts among its impressive list of alumni and faculty some 28 Pulitzer Prize winners.

Natsuki will become the youngest cat to attend the IWW, beating out 2006 graduate Snowball by 34 days.  She plans to work on an anthology of short stories during her time in Iowa.

POLL: Voters Tired of Chipmunk’s Stump Speech

According to a new poll from ABC News and The Washington Post, voters are beginning to tire of the rhetoric from chipmunk congressional candidate Tino Honeydew.  

“He’s been trotting out essentially the same speech since July,” said ABC News assistant political director Monica Loney.  "Our polling shows that voters are just tiring of hearing that same message over and over.  They want to hear something new from Honeydew.“

While polls indicate the chipmunk still has a slim lead over his opponent, he has failed so far to create any separation, leading some political analysts to predict this election will come down to the wire.

Local Pup Not a Fan of Thunder

The office of Nemo the Chihuahua has released a memo that publicly condemns thunder.

“We are unable to see any value in thunder, and regard it as a nuisance and disturbance to our community,” the proclamation reads. “We hope you will stand with us as we stand against thunder (and other needlessly loud noises).”

Puppy Takes Bath for Third Straight Day

When Mac got his first taste of cleanliness, he knew he couldn’t go back to matted hair and smelly paws. The pooch has taken a bath every day since – three days in a row, in fact.

“It’s bordering on OCD,” says Marge Boyton, a source close to the situation. “Gotta keep an eye on those compulsive tendencies.”
