Dog Founds Book Club at Local Library
A 2-year-old pup named Nala just can’t stop reading. She’ll scoop up anything she can get her paws on – fiction, history, science, chick lit.
But she was never sure if other dogs in her community had the same voracious reading appetite; that is until she started up a book club at her local library.
“Dogs came out of the woodwork,” says librarian Tabitha Cole. “Who knew we had so many 4-legged readers in our midst?”

Chicks Tie the Knot in Beautiful Private Ceremony
Though they may be young, it was clear to guests that Herman and Sherry Cluckingham are truly in love. The society chicks were wed Thursday evening in front of family and friends, and while there was some concern about their age, no one in attendance maligned the nuptials.
“It was beautiful,” says Martha Graham, one attendee. “They insisted on reciting their own vows. That’s when the water works came on for me.”
Attire at the event was provided by renown bird clothier Chicks in Hats. The bridal party donned some of this season’s most sought-after headgear.
“Chicks in Hats is extremely hot right now,” says fashion blogger Kerri Potsdam. “Expect the signature style to grace magazine covers for months to come.”

Wrinkle-Proof Cats Fail in Lab Tests
According to a review in this month’s Consumer Reports, so-called “wrinkle-proof cats” don’t live up to their promise as marketed. The magazine tested five brands of the supposedly wrinkle resistant felines and found that not one had any noticeable improvement over standard models.
“You’re paying a premium for a feature that just doesn’t deliver,” said editor James Scarlett. Not one of the five wrinkle-free kitties tested managed to score a recommendation to buy from the magazine.
“If you’re really concerned with wrinkling, you’re better off just saving your money and going with a shelter model, and then putting a humidifier in the room,” said Scarlett.

Baby Owl Announced as Alternate Host for Presidential Debate
When the third and final presidential debate of the 2012 election cycle convenes in Boca Raton, FL on October 22, CBS News correspondent Bob Schieffer is scheduled to be the host. However, should Schieffer be unable to perform his duties for any reason, the Commission on Presidential Debates has announced that a baby owl is the alternate moderator.
The owl, who is a rising media star, currently serves as a foreign affairs correspondent for CBS Radio-owned WBBM in Chicago.
“He’s really good at asking ‘who’ questions,” said the owl’s current boss, producer Lori McCall. "Admittedly, he’s less adept at the what, where, why and when queries…“
The focus of the debate will be foreign policy.

Cat’s Kicks Give Shaq a Run for His Money
It’s long been known that Shaquille O’Neal has some of the biggest feet in basketball. At size 22, his sneakers were a force to be reckoned with on the court.
But a Pennsylvania cat named Patches is about to go toe-to-toe with the NBA great – at least in terms of shoe size.
While Patches wears a men’s size 9, when compared to his body, he’s sporting a relative size of 25.
“There’s no question that his feet are abnormally large,” says his vet, Dr. Phillip Oday. “But you know what they say about cats with large feet.”
