Not again, Jasper -_-

If cats had to make New Year's resolutions, then Jasper's should be 'stop being such an asshole'! Mom has had enough of Jasper being so horrible and growling, she is now adamant about disciplining him - she will still send him outside for a few hours, regardless of the weather.


I did warn her, though, that it was snowing when Willow went missing in Vega Month 2009 - though she doesn't think snow would be a problem with Jasper, and he would simply go in the greenhouse. But even one of my enemies thinks, that the snow was partly responsible for Willow going missing - and that enemy does have a point;
as well as the reports of a cat killer loose in my local town in Airing Month that year, I don't know if Willow was a victim but I can't rule out the possibility. But that damn cat needs to learn to behave himself!

Bad Jasper

He is a very bad boy, isn't he? My dad lets him get away with it (mom bought him as a present for dad, and he just happens to be my first Street Fighter baby) - but mom won't tolerate it, and quite rightly so! Every time he growls at someone (particularly poor Sapphire), mom sends him outside for a few hours - though she may allow him a little 'time out', in her conservatory.

Jasper needs to behave when you have an airing

How very true - and yes, that's the only time when dad literally wouldn't let him get away with murder.


For anyone who might want a British Blue, such as if Sephiroth was still around (he was a huge Jasper fan, because of my pics of him hugging a Cactuar plush)... mom says they do have a temperament to them.

I dunno whether or not dad researched into British Blue cats - he simply wanted one (preferably a boy), after a resident at one of the estates he built owned them... and he thought they were very beautiful. Mom, however, learned that ragdoll cats are very loving and cuddly - which was why she had Sapphire, and of course I had Jasmine.

Can he be trained to be a better cat?

That's what we're hoping to do. Mom would only discipline him, mind - we can only hope her idea works...

I hope your mom's idea works. It was kind of disappointing not to have a Spanish Deadeye month

Cats are known for being independent and stubborn. If you get that sweet, affectionate cat then consider yourself lucky

We can only hope - but if disaster strikes, and we have to talk about letting him go... then if the hard decision has to be made during an airing celebration, then I'll make clear that it cannot be on an airing day, or within a final countdown. Jasper may be a horrid cat, but I wouldn't dare put him at risk from the "
Street Fighter is so bad, it killed Raul Julia"
hate trend!

We've had a few sweet, affectionate cats, especially Blinky (the one who took ill just after we became anti-Balrog) and Jasmine. OMG, Blinky was just the sweetest cat - so obviously, that made letting him go all the more upsetting...

Bess (who was one of my first two cats, as well as the first of my four tabbies) did get a bit senile in her later years, and would swipe at people for giving her a hug. She would even swipe at me, despite the famous story about her waking up my parents when the then-baby me was crying, but the baby monitor was broken!

Please be a good boy, Jasper

Fingers crossed. He's a grumpy old man, but still very beautiful...

Soothe Jasper with some music from Kylie. Let's hear it for the locomotion

Awwww, nice idea Lemmy! I just passed that on to mom...

Animals like listening to music as much as people do

I think I have seen it done on TV, particularly It's Me or the Dog?


But with regard to Lemmy's suggestion, I would obviously suggest the more slow-paced/relaxing Kylie tunes - the fast-paced ones may be too much of a... rush, for him?

I hope it works

Oh... I know Lemmy would agree with me on this, here's another one we should try to soothe Jasper with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m23JJ4hqCME


Yes, I suggest this because of... precisely why I was forced to create the Rainbow Bridge airing security, and in turn earned my crown as the Koopa Princess 0:-)

Kylie music will come to our rescue

We can only hope. Dad still tries to 'justify' Jasper's behaviour, just because he's his cat - but I certainly wouldn't justify even my cats' behaviour, were they misbehaving! Jasper used to be such a nice cat, and very loving toward Sapphire when she was a kitty - but now, he's a very bad boy...

Who is this Jasper? Been gone for so long. Surprised I was able to register with no probs

Jasper is Deadeye's cat

Jasper is my cat, and actually my first Street Fighter baby. He was cute as a kitty, but these days he can be grumpy!

True, but my cat Jasper is the new Grumpy Cat - in fact, he's a couple of months younger than her...
