Rocky Snyder joined us in the studio for the first hour. He will be filling in for Rosemary once or twice while she is away in the next couple weeks.

Dr. Pete talked about cats and the noises they make, sunburn in cats, skin cancer in cats and cattle, and finally all about something of which he is a fan, registered vet techs.

In good news we heard of the photo of a sea otter taken by Shmuel Thaler, and about Francine the wayward cat that was found.

Alex did not make it for the movie reviews, but we heard them anyway. The pick of the week was Good Fortune, with Keanu Reeves as an inept Angel Gabriel.

Charlie Keutman, after a bit of chat about the Homeless Garden Project, told us what can be planted this time of year to add some Halloween colors to our garden. They included these.
