Ginny was a big orange cat — a cat with money!

In Keston, England, some years ago, Ginny's owner noticed that something was wrong with Ginny. The cat was limping — limping badly. Ginny was picked up and examined. It was discovered that there were two pieces of what looked like glass in one of her paws.

Her owner took the pieces of “glass” out of Ginny's paw and had them tested. They were diamonds and worth one hundred dollars each.

On her travels, Ginny had “picked up” the diamonds somewhere. No one ever found out where, although many people searched. No one knew except Ginny—and she couldn't tell!
