Jack Is Clark's Pet Of The Week

CLARK, NJ — Meet Jack! He has been chosen as Clark-Garwood Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Jack is a male Tabby and he is 13 years old. He is the most pleasant and coolest cat I have ever met. When anyone enters my home Jack comes to the door to greet them, he doesn’t run away like normal cats. He is extremely sociable and loves attention.

Jack has grown up surrounded by dogs, he thinks he is one. Jack loves getting baths and has no issues with getting wet. As you can see, Jack is very comfortable sitting like a human on the furniture. Most are taken back by his comfort around people, but most of all, his size. I like to think that he is 'Big Boned' or just fluffy.

Jack loves to be in the center of everything, if my husband is doing work around the house, you can find Jack right there in the middle of the project. I’ve always said 'if he had thumbs, he would help!'

We love Jack dearly, he is just another one of our sons. I would truly be lost without him. I have to say, he is quite handsome as well! I truly believe that Jack would be the perfect 'Pet of the Week.' "
