Jake found me working at the tiny Kyburz P,O, on a cold November day in 1995. He flinched when we tried to pet him but we had to save him from U.S, Highway 50 traffic so he came to work with me. He stayed with me, Musky, Nugget, and Cody and Iris the kitties and after trying to find the owner (who we think dumped him) he came to live for 13 1/2 years. He was about one year old when he "appeared". Sadly my wonderful boy injured himself in March 2009 and after weeks of steroids to see if he would walk again I had to let him go. He had another sister Caty and got to be with his two new adopted 10 year old sisters Pheona and Noel for 5 months. My three girls now help me deal with losing Jake and all are rescued members of my family. Please encourage adoption from shelters.
