Indestructible cat is indestructible
<p>Those of you not in our cat&#8217;s fan base can ignore this.</p>
<p>Sugar, at twenty years and five months of age, had her annual checkup today and was pronounced almost indecently healthy.  The usual chorus of &#8220;Wow, she doesn&#8217;t look old!&#8221; occurred. </p>
<p>Yes, we do have to hydrate her about once a week. And we can tell she needs it when the night yowling starts &#8211; but, in general, indestructible cat continues to be indestructible.  Nobody expected her to live this long, much less as an active cat who looks about half her actual age.</p>
<p>Cathy and I are pleased and proud.  Of course this is is probably mostly good genes, but we like to think all the affection Sugar has collected from us and our geeky ailurophilic friends has contributed to her longevity.</p>
<p>Looks like she&#8217;ll be entertaining visiting hackers in our basement for some time to come.</p>
