Save the Chickens

Newton: What’s wrong, Ashton?

Ashton: My telethon failed. The chickens won’t be saved. My chicken emporium will never happen when the chickens go extinct.

Newton: Couldn’t you just dream about something else? Like cheese? I haven’t heard anything about cheese extinction.

Newton Watches Sad Ashton Ashton: No, Newton. You can’t just change your dreams like that. Cheese isn’t the same. You don’t understand what it’s like to have your dreams crushed.

Newton: I don’t want to see your dreams crushed. You aren’t even any fun to chase around the house like this. If you can’t have a telethon, I’ll help get the word out.

Ashton: How?

Ashton: Can you see the message from your house, too?

If you missed them, catch up on all of our chicken capers.

Finding a Warm Spot

Newton: The head peep caught a bug this past weekend. Not the fun kind of bug you chase around the house, either. That meant the heated blanket made an appearance. The heated blanket is much better than either of my cat beds in the bedroom.

Save the Chickens Telethon

Ashton: We’re running out of chickens, and this is a serious situation. Since no one else wants to take this seriously (I’m looking at you, Newton), I’m kicking off the Save the Chickens telethon.

Newton: Are you sure this is a good plan?

Ashton: Of course it is! Better than your plan, for sure. So here’s the deal everyone, you call me with your pledges. I’m standing by now to take your calls to help save the chickens. It’s not about my emporium — well, it is about my emporium, and my job as taste tester there. Think of it as being about the fuzzy chicks. They need your help!

Ashton ready to take your call* RING*

Ashton: EEEEEK!

Newton: Wow, I didn’t think she could move that fast.

wide-eyed NewtonNewton: Ash, what are you doing under there?

Ashton's tail peeks out from under the bedAshton: The phone rang.

Newton: Well…. That’s what happens when you ask people to call you.

Ashton: I don’t like the phone ringing. We’ll have to think of another way to save the chickens.

If you missed them, catch up on all of our chicken capers.

Cat TV Closeup

Ashton: Newton, turn around. You have to see what’s on cat TV!

Newton faces the wrong way for cat TVThe special programming from November is back on cat TV, bigger and better than ever!

second eagleDon’t worry, we aren’t allowed outside, so this guy can’t hurt us. And if we ever had been allowed outside, we never would have wanted to go out again after seeing this. Those birds really mean business.
