I am very sorry to tell you that Jersey died today- 11am.
He was very sick the last two days. I was going to take him today to the vet clinic Bonnie reccomended me but it was late...

I am so sorry Stany. I know we all hoped he would pull through. I hope you will consider another cat when you have healed. You sound like a good cat dad. Rest easy, dear Jersey.

Stan, I'm so sorry that you lost Jersey. You have
my deepest condolences.
I'm glad to hear you are considering staying on
the list. When my Moogie died, I left the list for a while (like a year or so),
but then I came back because the people here are so wonderful, and they listen

I am so sorry. Oh, God, we have lost so many recently on this
