Jack showed up with his mother Molly, his brother Jeter, and his father El Duque in the summer of 1997. He and Jeter were just weeks old. All 4 of them showed up together and we started feeding them.


Eventually winter was coming so we lured them into the garage with food. Then we shut the door and they were safe from the elements. They all trusted us by then. They knew they were safe and had a warm place to live during the winter months. They knew they were loved and could trust us.


When he became ill we knew we had to make that hard decision. We made an appointment at the vet, but the night before his appointment he passed away here at home during the night with Angel and Elvis by his side.


It was heartbreaking when I found him that morning. I wish I'd been there with him when he passed, stroking his soft fur, and talking to him, telling him how much we loved him. We miss him every single day. He will always be in our hearts.


His nicknames were Little Jack, Little Yellow Streak, and Mr. Murdock (an officer on the Titanic.)

And God asked the feline spirit

Are you ready to come home?

Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul

And, as a cat, you know I am most able

To decide anything for myself.


Are you coming then asked God?

Soon, replied the whiskered angel

But I must come slowly

For my human friends are troubled

For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand asked God?

That you'll never leave them?

That your souls are intertwined for all eternity?

That nothing is created or destroyed?

It just is....forever and ever and ever.


Eventually they will understand,

Replied the glorious cat

For I will whisper into their hearts

That I am always with them

I just am....forever and ever and ever.
