Congrat...to Jack....what a wonderful choice for COTD!

“In Honour of Jack”
Cat of the Day, April 6th 2008

I read about you today;
so pleased to meet
a very special Cat!

beloved cat is valued
beyond any known measure;
trusted and loved by a treasured cat
is the best gift of all.

You remind me of all my darlings:
The love affair began when I was a small child…
with big Kitty, Mini and her babies
Squeaker and Tigger: I loved them so much
Tammy, my darling dog too.

and sweet cats, Pussy (her name was Sam) and Buttons

Tiggy—AKA “the best cat in the universe”
came later in life, followed by felines Princess and PaddyPaws
(Bobby the Beagle found PaddyPaws)
The three felines and the dog lived very long lives –
We were so lucky to have such good friends.

And along came Sasha who had five kittens!
How we adored her.

And now we have Norman (he was 10 when he adopted us)
Felix arrived soon after—
we can’t imagine life without feline companions!

dear Jack,
how amazing that other species
trust homo sapiens!
our track record with other species
is nothing to boast about.

Your spirit lives forever
within the hearts of your humans;
You are precious and special.

Talk about a big smile and leaky eyes at 8:00 am on a Sunday morning!! I knew that was Jack the second I saw the picture. The picture is super Kate and such a wonderful tribute in words. You did a great job of describing him and his happy life with you. I am sure Jack is beaming down on his meowmie today for this wonderful memorial. It is so special indeed. Print this wonderful page out and frame it. It so deserves a special place of honour.

Concatulations Jack you were the Cat of Life for your family and now you are honoured as COTD here by your PT family. Have extra shrimp tonight at the RB banquet and play extra long in the sun.

We love and miss you beautiful boy.

Michelle & the furry gang

What a special tribute to a special kitty. You'll be missed.

What a handsome boy! What a very special cat he was. He has left paw prints not only on his mommy's heart, but also on the hearts of pet talkers around the world.

Jack, I recognised you immediately too there on your beam. You look so handsome and sweet! It's an honour to have you as Cat of the day, this fine sunday, and I know you will celebrate in style with the other RB kitties. Your mom and dad will too, I'm sure, although with tears in their eyes! You know you are very missed here on Earth, and you will never be forgotten.

Congratulations on being our Cat of the Day, sweet Jack!

I knew it was "our" Jack the moment I saw your beautiful eyes. You are much loved. Greatly missed. And will never be forgotten.

[sasvermont]

I recognized your sweet furry face as soon as I saw it today. Congratulations for being The Cat of the Day. I am sure your Meowie is so proud.

This same photo of you has been my back ground since you passed on last month. I will keep that photo for a full year.

Rest easy dear boy. You were loved. You are missed.

I saw that wee thumbnail and smiled: Jack!

Kate, lovely photo and bio of your dear boy. I didn't realize he was 'elderly' until now! This is a wonderful tribute to your handsome boy.

[RedHedd]

As soon as the COTD picture came up... I knew it was "our" precious Jack! What a great photo, and an even more wonderful tribute! He left paw prints all over the world, through our cyberspace family!

I know that he is at the RB, playing hard and running fast, with our manyother PT babies.
