In the Paper Last Sunday

Here's a story from the front page of last Sunday's paper, entitled,
"City Residents Seek Relaxed Chicken Rules."

My chickens are so far no trouble at all. We'll move the little coop around the yard to keep the stink factor down. They are much more quiet than a dog--even this afternoon when the neighborhood cat came for a visit and Lucy reacted with repeated loud, "BA-CAHW!!"

Ethel disappeared under the nesting box, but Lucy sent out the alert.
The chicken master (also known as the Assistant Bee Keeper and the Number Two Carpenter) dumped a bucket of water over the cat's head to indicate clearly that visiting the chickens should not become a hobby. The cat seems none the worse for wear, and the BA-CAHW!ing seems to have stopped.
