Jackie: Queen of the Compost


Gabrielle Dandy-Horn,  a Certified Fine Gardening Professional, with Gardens Remembered, LLC in Gaithersburg, MD, shared pictures of her cat Sally. This week is Jackie's turn -- Sally's sister.

"Jackie is our wonder kitty! She has always been a huntress, bringing us her victims - birds, mice, even a baby possum once! In 2018, she went missing for 5 days. She’d never been out overnight, and we posted signs in our neighborhood with a pic of her and description. She was always tiny, but at 17 years old she was also frail. She came back on her own, thank God, but with a broken back leg that was able to heal on its own, but very deformed. She’s managed quite nicely, and two years later still hops around outside or flops down on a comfy chair outside. Through the years her fur has increasingly changed in the mid-section. Through research and my vet’s knowledge, we found she has quite a bit of Rex in her – extremely soft curly fur."
