20,467 posts	didnt someone give Lenny a kitten that someone else killed too? but i do know a mouse died in the beginning because George got pissed off at Lenny for carrying it in his pocket when it was dead.

3,582 posts	um.. actually.. it's more than just a mouse... lol.. sad but true.. the farther you get into the story, Candy's dog gets shot by Carlson cos everyone feels soo bad about the dog being so old and miserable, and it's really sad cos Candy agrees that it's time to let the pooch go, and we're reading that book in my sophomore english class right now.. and yeah.. I don't wanna give much away, but eventually, Slim offers Candy one of the puppies.. and something really interesting happens to Curley's wife.. she deserves it for being such a whore! and oh yeah!!! in class.. my teacher is actually showing us the movie after about every 2 chapters and the dog killing in the middle is just sooo sad to watch, the lights were off in the room, and i sat at the front.. but my God. it almost made me cry! i didn't even watch.. it was just the gun shot.. ick! ok.. won't give out any more info.. read the book!!! marie xoxoxo
