2. Feral Cats Of Casper Turn Remodel Of Trashed House Into Contractor's Nightmare (cowboystatedaily.com) — A Casper contractor is battling a badly damaged house where feral cats keep sneaking back in through a crawl space, despite extensive cleanup and repairs.

3. Natrona County recent applications for marriage (8/12/26-8/8/26) (oilcity.news) — Natrona County has released its latest list of couples who applied for marriage licenses between Aug. 12 and 18, with filings reported from the County Clerk's Office in Casper.

4.
