Fritty the Kitty, Feline Extraordinaire

Somerville, Mass - Fritty the Kitty passed away peacefully in her sleep early Sunday morning after a short illness with a bad liver. She was 19 and a half years old (that would be 95 in cat years). She had one litter of five kittens, whereabouts unknown. Born on Capitol Hill in Washington DC, the young aristocat opted to forego a life in politics and to travel and see the country. She lived in North Carolina (where she terrorized the local song bird population); Indiana (where she ravaged the chipmunk population); Georgetown area of Washington DC (where she was known as the mouse decapitator); and Ohio (which she positively hated). She also spent short time living in Wisconsin and Michigan. In 1997, Miss Fritty retired to Lutz, Florida (where she turned her attention to the local lizard population). Never one to stay still for long, she left Florida and headed back north to Boston in 2005 (she said it was for the culture). Sunday afternoon a cat funeral was held in her honor; she was buried in the backyard of the pink house next to the Rose of Sharon. Fritty the Kitty, one of the great felines of our time, RIP.
