Dr. Jekyll-and-Mr. Hyde

Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll was the cat and pet of Rilla Blythe, during Rilla of Ingleside. Originally called Goldie, this cat has a weird habit of 'changing characters'.

Early Life
Goldie, as Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll was known during the early years of his life, was the son of a cat owned by the Blythe family. Later on, though, it became apparent that he deserved a different name.

Life at Ingleside
Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll's life at Ingleside varied. Being a purry, prowly cat at times, or a wild, weird creature at others, Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll ran away the day peace was declared in 1919. Susan, who disliked Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll, declared it was no coincidence.

Etymology
Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll was so named by Walter Blythe, who at the time was reading that book.
