Arrival Story:
Man, oh man. I have lived a Jet Set Kitty lifestyle. Here I am, just a few years old, and I've already lived in five places! But I'm staying here forever. These humans know how to treat a cat, let me tell you! I was abandoned and living on the streets of Ballard, when two kind folks named Misty and Cotton took me in. Their cats never learned to share, so we didn't get along so much. So I was sent to live with this Artiste who had mice in her studio and didn't want to hire an exterminator. I ate all the mice, and then found myself out of a job -- and a home. Next I moved into a little apartment downtown with a waiter who called me "Simpsone". I ate pretty good there, but he decided to move to Spain and didn't want to put me through quarantine. One of my humans works at PAWS Animal Shelter and heard about me through the grapevine. So I finally landed in a pretty sweet set-up -- I live on a houseboat where I have my own basket and get fed 3 times a day. I'm sure you can understand why I'm staying!

Bio:
My sister Delia is not thrilled about me, but I just stay out of her way as much as possible. She's a total princess. But sometimes the humans forget to pick up her food dish and I get Dinner #4! My name used to be Samson, but I kind of like Jasper. It has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

How I got my name:
When my girl human was little, she was taking a walk when a beautiful cat came up to greet her. His tag said "Jasper" and she said, "What a great name. One day I will have a cat named Jasper." Voila!
