Hello, neighbors!   In the past three days, I have had 3 planters stolen from my front porch in the 1100 block of Mellon Street.   They were regular, terra cotta-colored plastic: one long windowbox type, one round about one gallon size, and a somewhat larger vertical rectangular one.  All had dead( last years') plants in them.  The thief ripped out the dead plants, and took them, dirt and all.  I am flabbergasted, to say the least.  I could almost understand someone stealing a valuable, expensive ceramic planter, but these were run-of-the-mill plastic that you could buy at Target, Walmart, K-Mart, or--as I did--Home Depot.   If anyone saw anything, please let me know.  I will be calling the police to update my report--I just saw the last theft as I was leaving for work at 6 am this morning.   On a totally different note, one of my two cats has just been diagnosed with "panleukopenia" hope I spelled that correctly--the "boy in the plastic bubble" disease. Her white cell count is 1/4 of what it should be.   Has anyone heard of this, or had a cat treated for this?  I'd be grateful for any information. The vet gave her a shot and gave me some pills to give her, and a tube of vitamin stuff that she hates, though she is a trooper with the pills.   I'd appreciate any information on either of these items.   Thanks much,   Beth Barnhill
