Rascal 1988-2003
Rascal went to the bridge today, at Dr. Stevenson's office. No official
verdict since Jim's mom wouldn't allow the Dr to do tests. I didn't pay the bill, so had no say in the matter. The unofficial verdict was that her kidneys shut down causing the rest of the body to follow suit. What little urine she produced was a dark color and she was having bouts of diarrhea at the end. Rascal was discovered as a kitten in the middle of a road by Jim's sister, Misty. Misty almost ran over her, stopped and decided that she couldn't just chase a small kitten off the road to who knows what fate. Rascal, in return, hissed at Misty whenever she saw her. Jim and Rascal bonded together (similar personalities?) and became the best of friends. Last year, Jim's family moved to an apartment, where they couldn't have more than two pets. Rather than send Rascal to be put down at the pound, we brought Rascal over here. While she was not at all fond of sharing a domain with eight other cats, Rascal made the best of a bad situation and dominated the refrigerator, microwave stand, and silverware holder. A toaster also fell victim to her ire, a fact that was brought to light when I asked Mandy to make me toast one morning. I discovered Rascal's opinion with the very first bite. While it may seem as though we won't miss our little mistress of the mess, we will. She will always live in my memory as the grande dame of B*st*rd Cat tricks. |

I'm so sorry to hear Jim's mom didn't let TED do the tests. Poor Rascal! At
least she is not suffering any more. Hugs and purrs, -- Polonca in tears & Soncek "Tanada" wrote in message ... Rascal went to the bridge today, at Dr. Stevenson's office.
