We acquired our first in the 1990's.  I finally worked up the nerve to call, and after an hour of intense conversation, I felt that I had known Jack all my life. We soon arranged to meet and I had the privilege of going to his home and seeing where he wrote and painted. Over the years I acquired more of his paintings and enjoyed the pleasure of his company, spending hours talking about anything and everything. We welcome correspondence from other feline customers in Boink's memory. We will be happy to showcase those cats or other pets who send in their pictures to the humans at Der Rittmeister Militaria for posting in this space!
