Arrival Story: Was given by a friend who took one of Merlin's sister whom she named Molly.
Bio: Molly, Merlin's sister, lived upstairs and she and Merlin played with each other for hours every night. Molly and her owner moved away a year later. Merlin misses his sister a lot and, nearly 9 years later, still sticks his paw under the front door that leads upstairs to see if Molly is behind the door waiting to pounce on him.
Merlin was diagnosed with diabetes in May 2005. He doesn't let this bother him. Now, a year later, he is almost regulated on insulin. As a cat wizard, Merlin loves to create spells and potions for his friends as well as make things mysteriously disappear and reappear.

Happy 11th birthday to me! Thank you to all my friends who gave me rosise and gifts! I'm enjoying my birthday a lot. My Human gave me some cooked chicken with my breakfast and dinner. Yum!
Abby and Scooter are doing well. They miss their brother a lot :( Abby and Scooter were able to see our favorite special healing person before she left the healing place. We hear that she is going to Pennsylvania to start her own Creature practice. We will miss her a lot. She was the bestest special healing person all my Creatures' ever had.
My Creature Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs went to the Bridge yesterday :( He suddenly got very sick. He was fine in the morning but by afternoon he was flattened, cold, in discomfort and restless. A few hours later he was bleeding. My Human rushed him to the healing place. A healing person examined Gibbs. The healing person felt a hard mass in Gibbs' belly. The healing person said she could try to fix Gibbs but it might not help at all since Gibbs was in very bad shape. My Human felt it was to best to send Gibbs to the Bridge where he would no longer be in pain. My Human and Abby and Scooter spent a few minutes with Gibbs before he was taken away :(
Gibbs will be missed by his sisters and me and my Human and by many Catster friends.
Thank you to those who have sent messages and rosies to us. We appreciate them very much.
