Jazz, an endangered African wildcat, last week became the first mammal to be born from a frozen embryo implanted in a house cat. But she's not the first rare animal to use a common species' womb. A bongo antelope was born to an eland in 1984 at the Cincinnati Zoo, and two Holsteins, one in Cincinnati and one at the Bronx Zoo, have given birth to gaur, a rare species of wild cattle...

...take the brave, chipper and very decent rodent (voiced by Michael J. Fox) to heart. Though Stuart's adventures seem more breathless onscreen than they did on the page, the blend of digital animation and live action is first rate. Eventually Stuart wins over even Snowbell, the Littles' cat (Nathan Lane). That scheming feline is a tougher audience than any Stuart is likely to encounter in theaters...
