> I'm sorry. I've lost a few, too. Well, 19 is pretty old for a cat. I don't know how ours manages to live on. And on. I think she's related to the Energizer Bunny.

Mandy was a good old cat. She was a large Calico, mostly white and the climbingest cat you ever saw!
She almost killed me once. I was up on the roof cleaning out the rain gutters. I'm not comportable with heighths and there I was leaning out over the edge of the highest part of the house and something rubs up against my behind. I almost fell off the roof!!! She had climbed a dogwood tree and leaped four feet to the roof and was just being friendly.
