He passed on last evening. At least he isn't sick anymore. RIP Jasper.

Once again, Allie, my heart goes out to you...I know how painful losing not only one, but two little betta friends so close together. And you are right, that is what love is about on all levels.

But when the pain is fresh, it is so easy to forget the fun, laughter and love these little mites shared with us. I hope that is a big lake all these departed friends of ours are swimming freely in.

You did your best for him, sending hugs...

Thanks. Both of my boys faded so fast. It makes me want to watch my 6 I still have every minute I can.

I know that if there is any justice in this world and I still believe there is, that the bettas we have lost are all having the best of times right now and doing all the things they could not do while they were alive. Jasper can go and join Alexander and my crew and they will show him how to enjoy heaven.

I am sorry he is gone, Allie, but I do hope he is somewhere enjoying his freedom. Many hugs.

I'm so sorry for your loss

You gave Jasper a wonderful life. He was lucky to have you.

Yea, I feel like that about ours. I believe Jasper lived to an old age for a Betta and I think time is just what took him. Like Stacy told me tonight, we just love them and spoil them and enjoy them while we can -- I tend to worry about ours too often.

I'm sorry you lost Jasper. I guess they're only loaned to us, not given. We love and enjoy them, and then we have to give them back. He will RIP, and will be better for having had you as a mommy!

Thanks all. I see you all saw what a character Jasper was. My lumpy head is swimming in fishy heaven with perfect fins for a change.
