Jasper, the Tuxedoed Cat
Jasper was rescued by a tech in our vets' office
after she found him as a stray, only 5 weeks old.
Heaven only knows what became of the rest of his litter....
He filled a HUGE void in our lives only months after Dr. Steve 
had helped us bid farewell to our  beloved 17-year-old Uala 
(pronounced oo ah la meaning "sweet potato" in Hawaiian).

Jasper only weighed 8 pounds in his prime, 
but his file at the vet's office had a notation in big block letters: 
"WARNING: Don't try to take this cat's temp!"  --
 
Feisty was his middle name. 
Jasper was almost 19 when his little body gave out.

Rest in Peace, in the sun, dear J-Boy.

Guess who's Alpha?
This is where Jasper 
spends his mornings... 
on Ted's shoulder!


Gemma, go HOME!
