Well, it is my fault, with Bob being in the hospital last week, and Jinx's (the cat that did enjoy a game of ferret tag every now and then)tendency to hide, I was not fully aware of how badly she was ill. Just recently noticed that she had lost a great deal of weight and knew something wasn't right, but was completely shocked by her death Friday. The ferrets are still looking for her, and also Tygger, her counterpart in crime, keeps zipping thru the house expecting Jinx to sneak up on her to give her a couple good smacks. Jinx had just turned 5. Thursday Jinx was angry at me because I put her in the bathroom and put the gate up since she had just peed on the floor. She would not have that, and back over the gate she came. So Friday was a shock. I hope the Rainbow Bridge has plenty of nice warm heater vents and cat nip for her. -- Vicki L.
