[UC] For the Birds
Dear Neighbors: It's getting to be that time of year again when our feathered friends will be returning to roost in the well-groomed trees and bushes of University City. As was mentioned in prior years, some of the biggest fans of this migration are our neighborhood kitty-cats. You can almost hear their little feline-hearts palpitating with expectation of their little buddies' return. Many a colorful songbird bypasses our community for safer branches north and west of here, once they witness the toothy reception that awaits them. But I've recently discovered that there is an intervention, a program if you will, that your kitties can attend to help them learn to love their little friends, but not eat them. It is called Birds Anonymous (B.A.) and my veterinarian just told me that a chapter will be opening soon in our community!! Here is a link with some of their literature and moving testimonials by former bird-hounds. I advise you take a look at this and see if we can find a good place to start a meeting. http://www.thewb.com/shows/looney-tunes/birds-anonymous/0a3ffaa3-c5aa-4beb-9de6-f18644431ca8 Your friend and Bird Lover, Joe (Tweet tweet) C. -- It’s difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it. *Upton Sinclair*

Re: [UC] For the Birds
One of my favorite Looney Tunes! Let's see what's cookin' on TV: After-a bastin' you'll find that your bird-a will be-a GOL-den-a Brown-a. Ev-er-y a-SUCCulent-a MORsel will-a SIM-ply MELT-a in-a YOU Mouth-a. THEN That was 'Bye-bye Blackbird'. Now we'll hear 'When the Red Red Robin Comes Bob-Bob-Bobbin' Along. Don't make them like that anymore.

This link is not as clear as yours, but is really funny because we have to watch out for dogs who chase cats who chase birds.
