Shedding Fur from Tweak's Tail

Shed happens. That's a fact of life, and of the entropy that governs the entire cosmos. Anything that is put together tends to fall apart, unless lubricated and varnished on a regular basis, or treated with leather balm, or sprayed with moth spray, or, sometimes, overhauled completely.

And The Tip of James's Mom's Cat's Tail is no different. It got knocked off in a door, was brought to us in Tupperware, is mounted in a reliquary, and is now going to pieces.

But "nothing lasts forever." We knew that when we signed up.
