Meow, Nanea,
You aren't going to believe this! Sugar is going to be rationed all over the country. That means no more bubble gum for me! I'm rationing my last few pieces. And guess what? Our school is trying to earn a Minute Man flag, too. That makes me feel like we Three Kittens are doing something together.
Meow, your friend,
Donna
