He is my best little buddy. I am going to miss him a lot.

A few months ago he stopped eating, and dropped from 18lbs to 9lbs. The vet found the thing inside him. She gave us some medication that got him eating again, and bought him a few more weeks, maybe a couple of months. He is interactive again, but is no longer as steady or strong as he once was.

Eventually he became 50% bigger than her, but by then he wasn't a pest anymore.

He was a playful pest for his big sister. She was a smallish cat but still bigger than him when he was a kitten.

He has been an iCat (interactive-cat) his entire life with us. Sometimes we argued over who gets to eat the food.

Jack was a rescue kitten in early 2010. When I met him and his litter he split from them and came across the room straight to me. He climbed up my (Hawaiian) shirt and went straight into my pocket. He was that small. We were able to take him home a few weeks later.
