This is Jasper. I adopted he and his brother Max both seven years ago when a friend's cat had an "oops" litter of kittens. Jasper is known throughout the neighborhood as the King. (He has quite the noble profile as you can tell from one of the pictures!)
He and Max like to try to keep me from ever leaving on a trip; their strategy is full-on suitcase occupation. Like Max, Jasper loves to be outdoors and he particularly likes my concrete patio for stretching and lounging. The two of them get along very well and are often seen lounging together.
Jasper is a very loud purrer and can be very affectionate; he even has a second family down the block - he has convinced them to give him a second breakfast many mornings! Jasper is also a big newspaper fan (photo evidence below).
He also is a tremendous hunter and keeps our house free of any small rodents. How he and Maxie learned to be such good hunters I do not know.
Jasper is uncanny at knowing he should keep me company if I am sick; although he loves to be outside in good weather, if I am home sick (luckily pretty rare for me) Jasper turns into Mr. Snuggly! He is a great cat.
