Jasper

[jenluckenbach]

I remember that day long ago, just like it was yesterday.

I had been at my vet's office talking to my good friend Gloria about how I longed to adopt a long haired black male cat.

I had just gotten home, when the phone rang.

It was Gloria. "Wasn't I just talking to you?"

"You won't believe what I have here." She said. "A 3 month old, long haired black kitten.....in need of a home"

I thought she was teasing me. I was sure that she was.

But it was true. Another of the vet's clients brought 2 kittens in for their first check up. One was her new pet, but the other needed a home. It seems that the neighbor was just going to take them to the shelter.

I said "I'll be right there!"

And so the love affair began. and for 12 years and 4 short months you were the best kitty anyone could ever ask for.

Tonight, my lap is so very empty and so is my heart.









Good Bye.

My heart broke to see his name here. Sweet Jasper! I'm so sorry he had to leave you.

I am so very sorry for your lost. I have experienced that type of loss too many times myself and it is not easy. Rest In Peace Jasper!

I'm so sorry Jen! Jasper was a gorgeous kitty, and he will always remain in your heart.

Play hard at the Bridge, dearest Jasper. You will be sorely missed.
