Pug Still Indecisive Over 2012 Election

While there’s still plenty of time until November, most Americans have made up their minds on whether to vote for Barack Obama or Mitt Romney as the next president of the United States.

One undecided voter is Carlo the pug. While he is a fiscal conservative, he just can’t get behind the social platforms of the Republican party.

“He’s a little freaked out that he can’t decide right now,” says Chelsea Mason, a source close to the situation. “He takes voting very seriously.”

Thespian Hamster to Star in Rodent Adaptation of ‘Hamlet’

The Royal Shakespeare Company’s upcoming production of Hamlet has a new twist: All the parts will be played by small, furry actors.

“It’s only fitting that the title role be played by a hamster,” says Joyce Berger, creative director. That honor has been bestowed on Jackson, a classically trained hamster actor who sees the opportunity as a breakout role.

“We think he’s really going to shine,” says Thomas Cole, the show’s director. “You’ll never think about Shakespeare the same way again.”

Ferret Journalist Infiltrates Secretive Bee Network

Roger, a reporter for the International Ferret Times, has pulled off a deep cover operation to expose the inner workings of a beehive. Thanks to an elaborate costume and months of work assimilating into bee culture, the journalist has finally produced a piece that could make his career.

“He really earned their trust,” says Mac Forsyth, Roger’s editor at the Times. “In return, they showed him everything – the honey recipes, the truth about stinging people. This feature is really going to change people’s perceptions.”
