Jason, AFAC's feline staff member through early 2022
When Jason lost his companion, he didn't handle the loneliness well, so every morning he came to the AFAC office to greet all visitors, get pets and treats from coworkers (even the one who was allergic) - and find perfect sunny spots for naps. Though Jason has now crossed the rainbow bridge, he was incredibly valued as an unpaid, full-time employee charged with handling staff morale. He will be thoroughly missed.
