Gypsy

Miss Gypsy passed away after only being with us a short time. She arrived at Blue Bell with her buddy Mojo on October 4, 2008. She was 16 years old and had hyperthyroidism. She was very thin because of her condition but she discovered the wonders of wet food and would practically lick the wax off the paper plates! I have never seen a cat lick a plate so clean! Although Mojo must have taken lessons, as he does the same thing now.

Mojo took good care of her, snuggling up with her and keeping her warm. I will never forget her little calling sounds when she heard the can opener or knew it was mealtime. It was this strange little mraaahh sound that sounded just like Jerry Lewis. It mad me laugh and smile every time!

She loved catnip and lounging in the sunshine but in her final weeks Gypsy and Mojo she mostly just loved to sit on your lap or snuggle up into your neck.

I wish we could have known you longer but I am happy you could be with us, even if for just a short time! We will miss you little lady and I promise to take good care of Mojo for you.
