Despite Odds, Cat Reaches Healthy 2nd Birthday
Despite Odds, Cat Reaches Healthy 2nd Birthday
When Curious George was just a kitten, vets learned that he had a broken pelvis.
“The poor wee thing was still managing to run and jump around on it!” says his foster parent Amie Whiting of Christchurch, New Zealand. “The vets were pretty adamant that he was going to be put down, but we said, ‘no way!’ ”
After two months in a crate with as little movement as possible (“Seriously, try keeping a 3-month-old spastic kitten in a cage!” says Whiting.), his bones had knit, and he was finally healed.
“Celebrating George’s second birthday after he was destined to be put down is pretty awesome, especially because he is such a kooky, weird little dude.”
Critic: Cat’s Overacting Ruins Play
Critic: Cat’s Overacting Ruins Play
Drama critic Bill Roann has a bone to pick with the performance of Casper the cat. In a review he recently penned for The Oregonian newspaper in Portland, OR, the critic wrote: “In what was an otherwise delightful little play, Casper’s performance was contrived, melodramatic and exaggerated to the point of near unwatchability. Casper dragged what would have been a relatively easy play to recommend down into the dregs of mediocrity.”
Casper’s agent, Tracy Landis, had a diplomatic, if slightly biting response when reached for comment.
“I’m not sure what play Mr. Roann was watching, but he is certainly entitled to his opinion,” she said. "Casper has been an institution in the Oregon theater scene for the past 18 months. He has received numerous accolades, and no other reviewers seem to have a personal problem with him the way Roann apparently does.“

Dog Misreads Calendar, Thinks Dec. 5 Is Christmas
Dog Misreads Calendar, Thinks Dec. 5 Is Christmas
Local dog Marlowe bounded down the stairs in full reindeer regalia Wednesday morning, ready to dive into a pile of presents. Trouble is, today’s not Christmas.
“Her calendar was about 20 days off,” says Jenny Hicks, a source familiar with the situation. “Not sure if she was reading it in dog years, or what. But, she was pretty embarrassed when we broke the news to her.”
