Jasper’s nighttime walk was also a challenge. Late at night, the northeast corner of Castro and 24th becomes the domain of the White Cat, who must live nearby and who stalks any creature that comes too close, particularly if their name is Jasper. Tonight, the White Cat was charging Jasper in abrupt mock attacks. For the first time ever, I was able to pet the White Cat, but the cat kept its laser focus and tried to enlist my help against my intrusive canine. Jasper mostly got weirded out by the feline attention.
We proceeded further in the dark and saw a man in the distance at the Dog Park. The man had a light on a strap around his forehead and was fiercely squeezing a squeak toy for a tiny white dog playing at his feet. So cute! For whatever reason, however, Jasper panicked and for the first time ever aborted the nighttime walk and started heading home. which once again put us at the tender mercies of the White Cat hiding behind bushes and trees. More mock attacks ensued.
Just a challenging day for the pup.
