The
Cats
| Our cat is not allowed into the
guest rooms. She seems content to wander around on the first floor. As
she is
middle-aged she doesn't do much beyond sleep and eat these days. She is
a good-natured animal; if she approaches you, she is just looking
to be petted. |

Franny is named for a member of J.D.
Salinger's
Glass family. She has always been the more shy of the two cats. For mysterious
reasons she takes a shine to some guests and comes out to greet them
immediately. Other guests will not see her at all. |
Requiescat in pace
(July 4, 1996–
Sept. 2, 2009)
Zooey
(we pronounced
it 'zoo-ee') was Fran's brother - in Salinger's stories and as a matter
of fact - and was the more outgoing member of the family. |
 |
 | During
the winter months the cats spent most of their time curled up together
in a chair. We knew when spring had truly arrived because they then
separated and slept in different rooms. |
