Judge allows anti gay rights referendum on Montgomery ballot
A Montgomery County court ruling keeps the anti gay rights referendum on the November ballot pending higher court appeals. Judge Mitchell found the petition valid enough to proceed, countering board claims of form defects and arguing the referendum is permissible under county code for voters to petition. The measure, tied to the county anti discrimination law, drew broad publicity and opposition from local groups.

FeLV a leading fatal disease in American cats
FeLV, a major fatal cat infectious disease, weakens immunity and raises risk of viral, parasitic, and bacterial infections. Transmission occurs via saliva, urine, blood, feces, and respiratory secretions, and can spread to unborn or nursing kittens. While no cure exists, infected cats should be isolated indoors with separate resources, and breeding should be avoided. Human risk is not increased, but cautious contact is advised for children and women of childbearing age.
