Jackson by Christina Cole / and I will miss you.

I will always remember the way you followed Jamie around crying while she was singing when you were a kitten small enough to fit in my hand…..and ended up picking your own name. And the way you would glare at me when I stayed up past your bedtime. And how you never ever tried to go outside, because you were smart enough to know the good life was inside, the way you flew to Texas without making a peep and never clawed the couch but would tear up a throw rug in heartbeat. The way you turned your nose up at tuna fish or chicken, but would tear into a box of take out lo mein noodles when I was dumb enough to leave it on the coffee table…or even bring it into the house. And how sweet you were with Caleb when he came to see you even though you were terrified. And how even last night
you purred for Jett and Koen.

And I will never forget how this morning you looked at me with love and pain and snuggled into my arms while you took your last breath. Thank you Dr. Tipton for making those last moments so much easier. You were truly
the best cat I ever owned.
