Jasper

You are more than just a kitten to me. You are a member of my family. Today I know you were not you, What was wrong I had no clue! I made a rush to the vet. For I was not ready to let you go yet. I let you lay upon my chest, For that was your favorite place to rest. The vet said the we were too late, So now Jasper you are at Heavens gate.

I'm sorry you yet again, lost a "child", I just hope Edward Jacob(E.J.) can take away some of the hurt. What are the odds a mother abandoning her babies so Maxine can take what she threw away. I was happy to see you smile and to see Maxine take to those babies like they were her own, was a great gift. Although, me falling down the stairs sucked, it was worth it. Love you, Love Aleera

Kristy, That is so sad. I'm sorry you lost your kitten. I wish you lived in North Florida; I have a litter of cuties just about ready to go...2 apricot, two orange tiger striped, and one tortoise shell. If you are, let me know.... no kitten can take Jasper's place, but there are kittens out there that need you love just has he did. God Bless you and try not to feel too bad. D. S-J
