One morning we woke up and Rufus was dead. We found out later he had an asymptomatic/undiagnosed tumor on his liver that caused him to bleed to death internally. We were heartbroken and beside ourselves with undescribable grief. Jack seemed to know we were upset, and the entire day was next to us, in our lap, cuddled under our arms. He seemed to know when we just needed comfort- or we needed a distraction because he would run pell-mell into the room and tumble VERY ungracefully across the floor; of course it would make us smile.
Jack has this amazingly silly personality and literally makes me smile at his antics every day. If there is a cat stuck in a drawer in the closet despite all clues telling you it is impossible- it is 99.9% of the time going to be Jack...
If there is something he wants- he will come and "talk" to you about it and genuinely acts surprised when you don't know what 'maow MAOW' means. He doesn't meow a lot, mostly these short little maow..maowmaow while looking at you like "HELLO... I'm telling you ...." and it is most likely related to food- or his perceived lack of food at that particular moment in time.
He does like to snuggle on your lap- but not for long periods of time, as inevitably something will catch his interest and he is off to explore it in the most ungraceful way a feline could :)
He is a wonderful, loveable, unique and special little guy who would be a great fit in almost any home. I guarantee he will make you smile.
