With her photo magnet on our refrigerator and her egg on our tree every Christmas, Scratch will always be a part of our lives. It was amazing to see her jump high in the air to catch a worm. She always seemed so happy sleeping in Craig's arms. Paul, Mary, and Catherine Title: Re: the rainbow bridge Post by: gayle on 12-Mar-11, 12:06:51 PM I am so sorry to hear about Scratch, Linda.
