Not a good day for us...mainly Jim. We had to put Betty down yesterday. Jim found her, out of it and not in a good way. He took her to the vet and to make a long story short, had her put to sleep. I believe she was nearly 20. I got her the year after I moved back from Boston. Josh got her for me and Boo. I remember I had been out of town and I got back with (I think) Anne and Maggie in tow. Josh had told me that he had a surprise for me at the apartment (we lived in O'Brienville - on Terrence Lane). Well, I looked and looked and couldn't find anything. I went in every closet, under furniture, on top of cabinets...everywhere. Nothing. Some surprise. Finally, I decided that the last place this surprise could be (Josh finally told me what it was - he was at work and couldn't help out) would be under the entertainment center where there was about a 3 inch space. Sure enough, there was the tiniest, most frightened ball of fur shivering and ready to scratch my eyes out. Not much changed in her attitude after that...hee hee. Sami will sure miss her. It will probably take a while for her to realize that Betty isn't there anymore.
Say hi to Boo in heaven for me Betty! (Sorry I don't have a picture...they are all hard copies and I don't have my scanner hooked up.)

Bye Betty. No more cat jokes for Muir anynmore. I guess I will have to find another way to harass(spelling?) Muir.
