I was just talking to The Mavis and she told me that their cat, Flossie, is no more. She was hit by a car this morning.

Floss was a young cat, probably no more than 12 months old. Her arrival in my parents’ lives brightened their days immeasurably and she’ll be sorely missed by both of them.

The Mavis is certain that they will have another cat, but Flossie has set a benchmark for them and they’ll always remember her.

I remember your post when Flossie first met Audrey. The vision of a mad chook chasing that kitty around nearly made me snarf whatever it was I was drinking.

I hope their next feline companion measures up (somehow they always do, though, don’t they?)
