Rachel soon learns that Mrs. Whiskerson is by no means as friendly as her grandmother's cat. It scratches Rachel and hisses at her any time she goes near. (Rachel is convinced that it hisses "Rachel!") Eventually, Rachel decides to sell Mrs. Whiskerson. She has no luck in doing so, until Gunther buys it for $1500. He tells Rachel that she can visit Mrs. Whiskerson any time she wants. What happens to the cat after this point is unknown.
