Face thru Fuzzy Bear


Face, 10/01/01

Who is going to climb on the "crazy" chair? Track litter down the hall? Or sit patiently by our side waiting for the last bit of cereal bowl milk? We will miss your warm paw hugs, your funny little voice and most of all your sweet fuzzy face. I love you so very, very much and will never forget you, Face. You will be forever missed until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. Love you! Love you! My dear sweet Bean cat.

Holly and Jesse Sanger


Facey, 10/20/83-4/9/01

To my wonderful cat and best friend, people who never met you couldn't understand why I gave you such a strange name. But those that did meet you, agreed it was the perfect name. When you were born, you had the biggest head and tiniest body! But what a beautiful face you had. Even after 17 years, that face made me smile--whether it was covered with milk from sticking your head my glass or laying beside me on my pillow at night. You brought me so many years of happiness. I can never thank you enough for letting me be your Mom. You were, and always will be, my Faceygirl.


Fallon, 3/20/86-7/24/01

I miss you and will always love you.

My fancy pants was my very dear companion for 10 great years. She was with me through good and bad times. I just hope I was as good a friend as she was to me.

Farah, 12/23/88-03/27/01

Your smiling face that greets me, your unique "purreow", your warm rubs and friendly nibbles on my toe, your silent presence beside me. Holding your warm furry body next to my heart, cheek against cheek, your left foot in my hand, you purring. Ah, the best feeling in the world.

My beloved "fawah", thank you for sharing the last 12 years with me. Please forgive me for my shortcomings over the years. You will forever have a very special place in my heart for you have brought joy and comfort not only to me, but to people I hold dear. So loving, intelligent and gorgeous, my daughter, my best friend. You will always be my angel and my honey bunny baby darling dear. Mommy misses you dearly and her heart feels a deep pain, but she knows you are now in a much better place. I love you darling. Kiss your forehead. Please wait for mommy at the Rainbow Bridge. I will see you again.

Farow

we miss you so much Farow, I remember that night when you died in my hands....it was so hard, you were shacking then you died. That day I went to your cage and you were on the bottom, I took you out and held you, this was the first time that you let me ever hold you, you left so suddenly, with out warning...I really do miss you and hope to see you again, you were such a handsome bird...the most handsome parakeet I have seen, with your blue, white, and green feathers. Once again I say..." I love you " and now I let go of my sadness, good-bye Farow.

Fat Boy, 1998

Fat Boy, my miracle pup. You wandered away from home when you were barely six weeks old. I spent every spare moment driving the neighborhood looking for you, advertised your being missing on the radio and posted ads in the local paper to no avail. As I sat on the back porch one week to the day of your escape, you appear at the gate, all wags and kisses. I miss your draping yourself across my lap as if you were still a small pup when in fact, you weighed 80 pounds. I will miss you always.

Mardell


Fatboy Morris, 09/30/01

Hey Fatboy,
We love you so much, Morris, you were our special cuddle bug. We're sorry we couldn't keep you safe, but you just loved to roam... You seemed so happy we didn't want to take that away from you. We hope you'll forgive us and that we'll see you again someday. We'll always remember how you used to sleep in Daddy's lap with your legs around his tummy like a big long hug and how you'd always be curled up sleeping under the picnic table or with your buddy, Meelo. You know, he misses you and cries every night for you, wondering where you are. I'm sure Smudge misses you, too, in her own way, but you know how she is. We'll get some of that catnip you guys like so much and have some extra play time, maybe then we all won't hurt and cry so much. We love you and miss you always. Love, Mom, Dad, Meelo, & Smudge


Fauntleroy, 06/07/01

Faunt was a very sweet, loving and affectionate little cat. He was so cute that he was funny. He loved licking people and purring, demanding their attention. He loved being outside in the summer and transitioned doing just what he loved. His daily fights with Phoebe LaRue were so funny. Their little ritual was very much part of life in this home. I love him very much and will miss him deeply.

Fawn, 05/08/77-09/07/89

I watched my fawn being born she was the runt, but she was the meanest, a leg girl to the kids, always grabbing there pant legs, never sick, till she left us after 12 yrs, of loving her and taking care of her and her us. she is missed very deeply, she had cancer. I love and miss you fawn you are always in my thoughts, and will forever be, thank you for taking care of me....love your momma,,,,,Sherry


Fawn, 03/17/00

FAWN...My dearest ladydog friend: My heart, life, spirit, soul...You came to me thru a rescue, I saved you from that place, tho it was you who adopted and saved me. You saved my life two times, tho really many times over..I still miss you everyday and cry for you. You are with Oliver and all the rest.. How can the tears stop? How I wish I could wrap my arms around you!! There are some new pups here, as you know, they are so sweet, but they are not you! Oh, Fawn my sweetheart. Everytime we have a loss it all comes back to you and Oliver! And Dave who you never knew until you had to leave for that rainbow bridge on st. pats day, which you know was Oliver's birthday. I'm sorry you had it so bad before I got you out of the pound when they called to say I had a pick-up. The people who had you before were mean, but you were and always WILL be my special girl honey, I don't know where I'd be w/out having known you. And all the other dogs we knew together. Thank you for loving your people pups, even tho the bad previous owner took yours away, you were the most caring of Mommys with my 2footers and you know we all miss you so!! I carry your picture with me everywhere and everyone I show it to says oh she was so beautiful! You were, and I'm sad Annie lost Sally tho if I had not been looking to help her, I'd not have found this site, and been able to write this for you. I think a small pond has a chance to be filled with all of these renewed tears tonight: For all of you on the other side of the bridge...Fawn you were the most special friend I will ever have! Thanx for being the great ladydog you were, and when we went on our trip, and met Annie, she was one of the few only people you liked and now is my best human friend. I talk to you all the time, I wanted to do something special for you, and hope this is the way everyone does on this site. I Love You, Dearest FAWN!! See you in heaven or I'm not going. xo, xo...........Love, hugs, kisses, nummies, and slobbers...Mommy Nessa p.s. I guess your with Dave and Oliver, Sally, Macy, Baby, Maggie, Watson, Buffy, Omni and everybody else. Save a place for me. I'll be there someday and we'll do biscuts.

Fefe, 1/18/93-4/07/01

Fefe, we're so sorry you were taken from us so soon. You brought so much joy to us. You will be missed, but part of you will live on in our hearts forever. Rest in peace sweet baby. We Love You.


Felipe, 07/13/89-06/23/01

Que en el cielo llenes de alegría a todos los que están contigo como lo hicistes con nosotros en la tierra. Gracias por todos los momentos bellos que nos diste, por tu amor, tu carita dulce.

Isabel - Manuel Soaz


Felix, 1985-1996

Dear Felix You are a wonderful friend who is greatly missed. I still think about all the years we had with you, the great times, the bad times, and your sick days. I miss every one of those moments. Though I have a new puppy in my life after all these years without you, no other dog could ever be another Felix. I hope that you are happy and healthy at the rainbow bridge, and will never forget you. I love you with all my heart. XO Mandy


Felix, 11/15/01

When I first met my husband I knew there was something very special about his cat Felix, but never understood what it was. Over the years I've realized what I was feeling, he was an angel! He enjoyed cantalope with us every year ( his favorite of all foods) and would take sips of fruit punch right from your glass when you were not looking. His favorite pass times were lounging by the pool and smelling the flowers. He was very special to us and has left a big hole in our hearts. We will never forget our beloved friend and will always be thankful to have known an angel.

Felix, 07/10/92-10/20/01

Hey, little guy I hope you can forgive me - I did what I thought was best. We couldn't let you suffer - not after all of the happiness you brought to out lives. You were and always will be my special guy. Your Bill and your Mom will always love you, and we'll never forget you. We miss you more than you can possibly imagine.

Elaine


Felix, 03/87-09/03/01

Felix saw me though thick and thin, put up with many house moves and finally settled in our new home two years ago, with new playmates, Eric the cat and Flossie dog. Sadly missed by all the children and the other furry babes.
Died quietly in his sleep under his favourite bush where he liked to go for an afternoon nap.
God Bless x

Felix, 1985-07/16/01

Felix,
You were, without a doubt, my best friend. I needed you as much as you needed me. You brought joy to my life everyday, and I hope that I gave you as much happiness as you brought me. I love you, sweet boy, and I miss you terribly. You were a gift from God and I am so thankful for 15 years of love, companionship, laughs and cuddles. Rest well, Felix, 'till we meet again. With all my heart, Cathy


Felix, 01/01/99-06/09/01

My dearest Felix,

I hope you know that I did this out of love and I miss you horribly. It's so strange not hearing you at night or looking in on you during the day. I hope you approve of my decision and don't blame me for doing what I hope was right. I hope you didn't suffer more then you have to and are now happily playing with Atos at the Rainbow Bridge. I wish you were here.

Love you forever,
Kate


Felix, 01/10/01

To the grandest ole boy of the feline world. We will miss you very much & love you always.

Fergie, 05/20/85-08/07/01

Fergie, my baby and oldest and most loyal friend. You were always there for me but I wasn't there for you on the day you were put to sleep for ever. I've lived on the opposite side of the world for the past three years and I so regret the time I've spent away from you. I want you to know that you are always my last thought at night and my first thought in the morning. You brought me so much love during your sixteen years of life. I love you still and hope that we'll meet again.
All my love forever and always.

Ferguson, 09/01/86-07/21/01

Fergie was my special "good boy" he brought happiness to our lives and was always a giving dog. Even in his old age he was always in high spirits. Saying goodbye to him was painful and sad. Fergie, we love you very much.

Willy Perez


Festus, 05/28/84-08/03/01

Fes-

For everything you meant, and everything you taught-thank you. I'll always love you and never forget you. You'll be in my heart forever. Wait for me at the bridge. In the meantime, eat lots and have fun with Junior, Fritz, and all your new furfriends.

Love,
Mom

To my dear friend Fido you are still greatly missed.
Love mommy


Fiesty

To my special love Fiesty
You gave me love and life itself for 15 years
No matter what I did, you where there
Then came a Tue morning
and I made a choice to try and find help
With that choice it did not help
You have been struggling with the cough
little did I know I would have to look in
to your eyes and see the pain of what I did
Pain that I could not bear
Your little head you could not stay
I new at that time your would never play
So I took you in it wasn't fair
But the medicine had stop the flow of
blood to your body and you could not be
the way you were, stumbling and falling and could
not stand, your little head all to the side
That brief minute on the floor we new we loved
So I not sure I did the right thing
But for you I thought at the time I did
I have regrets that your not here
All I know is that God I have tears
You will come home in a week are so, a different way
then maybe I'll find peace for what I did
hoping you will be better off up there
After all you your heart was so big
One in my heart I'll hold forever dear.
Debbie & Dan Schaefer


Fifi, 1987-04/07/01

For love has made us part, but you will always be in our hearts, now and forever love will be always till eternity. so we loved and lost for now, but we will find our way home, I am sure of that now. K.R.


FiFi, 08/68-02/83

FiFi.. you were my best friend for all my life. I love you still and I'm grateful to know that you are waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge. Please forgive me and know that in my heart I have always loved you and will always love you.

Debby Rogers


Figaro, 01/01/81-03/10/01

My dear Figaro,

You were my constant companion for 20 years. Through all of Life's changes, I could always count on the 'meow' of your welcome and your gentle purr as you lay upon my chest.

We had a good, long life together. But I am so sad that it could not be even longer. I miss you so much.

There will never be another like you, Figgy. Your corner of the couch is empty, and there is a space now in my life that can only be filled with my loving memories of you.

You will always be in my heart. You will forever be my baby.

Rest now, my little one -- and know that someday we will be together again.

Your Daddy, Ken


Filigree, 04/27/01

She was the best. She was the heart and soul of my home and it is so empty without her.

Finnigan, 02/03/01

I love you baby, be good, and stay out of trouble!!
You too, Pascha!!

Ashley


Finster, 09/15/92-04/05/01

Finster was my beautiful, special boy. He was the light of my life and from him I learned that I could give and receive unconditional love. I lost him suddenly when a mass was discovered on his spleen and he was unable to recover from surgery. The other dogs in my house, Face and Clara, are a great comfort but Finster is greatly missed by all of us and will forever hold a most special place in my heart.

Dione


Fishbone, 04/20/01

Fishy Baby, I love you very much and miss you terribly. You were the best friend that I could ever have. When I was sad I would crawl in your bed with you and we would snuggle until I felt better. When you passed, it felt so good that you crawled in my lap when you were scared and hurting. I could finally repay you for all the times you were there for me. And you stayed in my lap until the end, when you felt all better. You could once again run and play and fetch. I will always be thinking of you, especially when I see a rainbow. I love you very much. See you soon.

Fizz, 04/07/98-06/05/01

Fizz was so bright and so affectionate. She was a very important part of my life, and I miss her badly. She brought joy every day she was with us and was much loved.


Fizz Gig, 12/18/99-09/25/01

I never had my own dog until Fizz Gig. He was my special baby and I miss him terribly. I hope he will give me some sort of sign to let me know that he is alright and that we didn't fail him.

Flannel, 02/13/01

Our hearts were broken the day before Valentine's Day. Until we meet again.


Flash, 03/09/90-04/10/01

Flash was one of the kittens in my first litter when I started breeding Burmese, He was a very special boy, a typical Burmese. He is now with his mother Ellie who passed on in 1999, they were inseparable when they lived here with us and are now re-united.

Naomi


Flat Ears, 3/17/01

Flat ears I love and miss you very much, I did everything I could to save you, Every time I come home I will think of you, how you used to greet me at the door. You are in my thoughts all the time.
Thank for being part of my life.
I LOVE YOU !!!!!!TILL WE MEET AGAIN!!!!!


Flavor, 1/12/89-1/31/01

Flavor was the best friend I ever had. Whenever I was sad, she stayed right beside me to comfort me. When I was happy she just made me happier. Not only was she a loving and devoted dog, she was a dear friend. She died from Cushing's disease and hyperthyroidism, which resulted in seizures. It killed me to see her go through them. So I put her out of her misery, and held her in my arms until she passed on to a better place. Of course it was the hardest thing I have ever done, but was for the best. I miss her terribly, and not a day goes by without me thinking of her, mostly with tears in my eyes. But I know she is happier now, and we will meet again one day. I will be looking forward to that day, as I know she is also. Then we will be together again at last.

Laurie Lane


Fleecie, 10/22/97

Dear Fleecie; You came to our family when you were only 3 weeks old, I had to teach you how to lap up milk and use the litter box. We became constant companions along with our
other cats, Boots and Finnigan and our beloved dog Sherrie. I hope you are all together now. I would like to take a moment to remember all the many pets (to numerous to name then all) that I have loved in my lifetime. (71 yrs) I'm sure that God has them all in his loving care over the bridge. You are all gone but never forgotten.
Love Mommie


Flip, 12/01/01

My dog flip was a very sweet dog,
And I miss him dearly,
some thing special I would like to share with you is whenever he was really happy he would Dance with me.
he would shake hands with me.
And one time he played basket-ball with me.
He loved everyone, Unless they tried to hurt me.
I love him and always will, But I know he is in a Better Place.
Sincerely, Emily Power


Flo, 07/03/91-04/01/01

Flo, was a rescue Newf from a puppy mill. I met her two days after rescue. It was instant love for us. We bonded then and there at the kennel. She came home three weeks later and fit in with the rest of the clan instantly. She looked at you and you knew that you were loved. My heart aches sweet Flo. Remember that I will always cherish you. I will see you on the other side.

Floozie, 04/14/87-06/22/01

Memories of Floozie
by Lynne Sparks

You came into this world one among many,
And it was you we chose to keep when you flaunted before us.
Graceful and elegant, yet haughty and mischievous,
it was that hussy style that gave you your name.

In years to come, you became queen of the house--
demanding respect with that captivating stare.
We would give in to your every whim and wish
because that is what you were and that is what we loved.

For fourteen years, you delighted our lives,
showing your independence in every move that you made.
Chasing birds or demanding your snacks all seemed frivolous
because it was that purr that warmed our hearts.

We cared for you as only we knew how,
even when howls of protest told us of your displeasure.
We tried to be attentive to your every meow,
not knowing it was from the inside that your hurt lay sleeping.

Wanting you with us for much longer than we had
was not to be when your body couldn't fight.
We owed you the dignity that you had all your life,
so we showed our greatest love in saying good-bye.

You are gone but not forgotten--and never will be
because there will never be another like you.
You will always be special in our hearts and in our minds---
you will always be forever Our Floozie.


Lynne and Bob Sparks


Floppy, 10/24/01

Our dear Floppy Bunny, you fought so hard, but in the end there was no hope. It was the hardest decision we ever made, but we know you are not in pain anymore, and you are with all the other bunnies in Bunny Heaven. We both miss you and Flopsy. You were a very special rabbit and we love you very much. We will never forget you.

Albert and Renee


Flopsy, 06/20/01

We "rescued" Flopsy from a family who would not care for her properly. She was our first experience with a rabbit and she was the most loveable, funny, sweet bunny. She loved to run in the grass, eat strawberries - her favorite, and play with a basketball - she would push it all over our screened porch. We have an older dog, Bear, and they were best buddies.

Flopsy's passing came unexpectedly and we are not sure of the reason. We are all very sad and she will be greatly missed as she was a part of our family. We thank God for the 18 months we did have with her and she has blessed us with many fond memories and she will live on in our hearts always.

We love you Flopsy.

Lisa A. Pease


Flower, 11/83-02/07/01

Flower was a very loving, faithful, and wise companion. He accepted his human friends unconditionally as well as his feline and canine friends. He welcomed everyone with open paws into his house. He loved to travel in the car and visit others. He was the most unassuming and affectionate cat I have known. He is greatly missed by all.

Gerrie Meyer


Flower, 09/15/90-01/08/01

Flower was a loving dog that took care of everyone in the house!

Floyd, 09/01/98-08/16/00

Last week was the first anniversary of your passing over the Bridge. Your mama is having a very hard time. I miss my little Hurricane Floyd survivor. You lived with me for almost a year. Every night I would sing to you and tell you what a pretty boy you were. Do you remember "Floyd, Floyd, my pretty boy"? Over and over I sang it to you. You used to love to chase the butterflies in the yard, and then you would "flop" on your back and just revel in the joy of life. Sometimes, I think I see you just out of the corner of my eye. Chasing butterflies again. I hope they are just as wonderful and fun for you now. I miss you, my little man. And I know that you know that I love you.

Mary B. Parsons


Floyd, 10/21/00

I still think about you everyday Floyd and love you more each passing day. I will see you someday soon. I just want to let you know that you are in my thoughts.


Fluff, 05/84-11/11/01

You were taken from us suddenly after 17 years. The house doesn't feel the same; you were such a presence. Mouse and Morag are looking for you. There is a Fluff-sized hole in my heart that will never be filled. I loved you and relied on you more than I ever knew. I'll always miss you, and I'll never forget you. Love, Sasa.


Fluffy, 10/17/83-10/28/01

Beautiful little girl, sleep peacefully little angel, you were a gift from God. Our years together went quickly. I miss you terribly, the days are slow and empty now. You are in my heart and I will always love you. Until we meet again.

Love,
Marylou/your mommy


Fluffy, 12/10/91-12/06/01

Fluffy you are my heart. From the day I brought you home you were my angel sent to me by God to give me comfort. I did not have brothers or sisters to play with, I had you. Since I was 12 you made me so happy. No matter what happened with school, my female problems, work, my boyfriend that I was just so recently upset about, you always loved me unconditionally and always cared for me. That was a constant in my life. I did everything medically possible until every doctor said that nothing would help your cancer, and even then I tried some more. Yesterday you died looking into my eyes as I sang you "our" song. You will never be replaced, there will never be another Fluff. You are The Fluff, almost human and you will always be with me.

You fought such a tough fight. I know you did it for me, you knew I needed you. Then your body said no more and I knew, so did you. Thank you for almost 10 years of joy. I will miss you forever, you are MY HEART and baby I LOVE YOU!

Love,
Your Amy


Fluffy/Fluffball, 11/06/00-10/16/01

To My Special Little Friend

The day you left me,
Broke my heart.
Because then I realized
That we had to be apart.

The only way
I can see you hop,
See your little nose
wiggle up and down,
See you kick your
back legs up in the air,
See you flop on to your belly,
whenever someone walked by.
The only way, I can see these things,
are in my minds eye.

The only way
I can feel your soft fur,
brush my hand across your head,
Feel your nibble when you were annoyed,
no matter how mad you were, you'd never bite.
Feel the playful bunt of your head against my hand,
Feel you lick my fingers,
Feel your whiskers touching my face.
The only way I can feel all of these things,
Is to remember what they felt like.

I know now you are in a better place,
bouncing through neverending fields,
where the grass is greener.
I know now that you feel no pain,
You're a happy little bunny.
The last few days we spent with you,
we got to know you even more,
I will cherish you forever.

Until we meet again my little friend,
Love Forever,
Chelsea.

Fluffy

Fluffy, you came to us a special gift from heaven. You became a second mom to Ashley and a guardian. I will never forget when you were persistent in making me check on her, only to find that she had a dangerous fever. We miss you everyday, Ashley will never heal the empty spot in her heart that was left when you passed. We will never forgive ourselves for being away when you passed, leaving you to pass on your own. We all know you had a paw in sending Sylvester to help her in her grief. We love you always Fluff!!
We'll see you at the Rainbow Bridge, I promise, with a bowl of cheetos.
Love,
Mom, Dad, Ashley


Fluffy, 04/05/88-08/14/01

Fluffy was a beautiful gentle Collie who gave us so much love and joy for the thirteen and a half years that she was alive that I can never even begin to measure it.
She was a very kind friendly and caring Dog who we loved more than I can express.

Everyone who met Fluffy said that she was special. She loved people. She was never mean or aggressive. Fluffy had a good life traveling and living in all parts of the country. She loved to travel and meet new friends.

There were many times when Fluffy helped us get through difficult situations just by being there for us.

We will miss her dearly and want to thank her for so many happy years together.

Fluffy we will see you again.


Fluffy, 06/01/84-08/04/01

To a lovely and special member of our family who passed away today. His devotion and love to us was immeasurable. We will always remember how much joy you have brought to our lives and the lessons of the more nobler things important in life. There will be only one of you forever in our hearts. We pray safe journey together with Christ and life eternal. Until we meet again - Go and sprout your new wings of angelic glory.

Fluffy, 1982-1999

Fluffy found me in a trailer park after I had lost my first human baby...he became my baby in heart and soul, my best friend, always there. He never left me, he was always there for me more so than any human ever was. I miss him and cry for him every day...he was beautiful, good and smart. He was my true best friend..I love you still and miss you every day of my life.

To my little love

You and I were together for almost 14 years.
It's not even a week since you passed the rainbow bridge and I miss you terribly. My heart is broken forever.
You were handsome, proud, extremely friendly but most important loving. I will never forget when I had to stop doing whatever it is I was doing and had to pick you up and caress you because you were tugging at my leg with your little paw. I will never forget how you would talk to me or answer when I would call your name. I can't stop crying.
Everybody adored you; you were so unique.
Rest in peace my little love and may God protect you
always in your new home.
Till we meet again; I love you

Mommy

Fluffy,

It's only been 3 days since I had to make the decision to send you to Rainbow Bridge, but it seems like an eternity. I am in tears this morning (Saturday) because I can't watch you play while cooking breakfast. I miss you so much.

I'm so sorry you were so brutally attacked so close to home. When I found you, it was almost too late. I took you to the hospital, you somehow made it through the night. I picked you up in the morning, and took you to the vet. I returned to take you back to the hospital for the night and the vet said you were much worse than in the morning. I had to make a decision. She let me visit with you for a while. We said our last good-bye's. You have been there for me through many events and illnesses in my life, I didn't want you to die alone, or with strangers. I was glad our friend, Vicky, was there. She said a prayer for me and you. I told you that you would always be my Fluffy Baby. Then you went to Rainbow Bridge.

I will always love you and you are forever in my heart.
Love, Maggie


Fluffy, 3/15/86-01/26/01

Fluffy was a good cat. She was lucky enough to live at the house where she was born all her life. She lived to be almost 15 years old. She lived longer than all her littermates. She was never blessed with motherhood, and we always wondered if her kittens would be as pretty as she was. She was a good companion to my mother, loving and accepting of all things, even cross country travel. In her later years, Fluffy traveled by van with my parents from California, to our home in Austin, Texas, to my sister's home in Louisiana, as well as to my aunts and uncles in Tennessee, Alabama and Virginia. She also made several trips up to Northern California to visit my brother and his children. She enjoyed traveling, and was always comfortable in her new surroundings, but was always happiest when she smelled home. Fluffy was blessed to have my parents with her in her last moments, and was coherent and peaceful at her end. We were graced by her presence, and will always remember her big blue eyes.

Our Fluffy was a very special little man. He was our boy in every way possible.

We will miss him greatly.

Fluffy was born to a feral mother in the colony I was caring for. She was shy at first but eventually became a happy lap cat. Last May she decided she wanted to be an outdoor cat again and moved into the feral shelter on the deck. She had a wonderful summer napping in the sun and catching bugs. Even winter didn't spoil her enjoyment of the outdoor life. I think she knew her days were numbered and she wanted to end her days as they had begun out in nature's glory.

Fluffy, 12/28/00

To one cool cat, that will be greatly missed.

Fluffy,

You were my little princess. I thank you for the years you gave me. Thank you for your love and comfort even at the end. I will miss you forever, and I will never forget you. I know you are watching over me right now, and don't worry, I know that some day I will meet you at the bridge, and we will never be separated again. You will always have the biggest chunk of my heart. I love you.

Foley, 09/27/01

He was only a little over a year old when he was called home. He had the FPI virus, and there was no hope. I have been very blessed to have all of his love for that year. He was given to me on my birthday, and I guess that god just loved him too much to have him stay on earth any longer. I know that he is out of pain and in a better place, but my heart just won't let me believe it. He will always be in my thoughts and in my prayers. He was the gift that I thought would never go away, but I guess I was wrong, well maybe not, because he will always be in my heart. I love you Foley, and I will see you again.

Fonzie, 12/21/00

Fonzie,
The day I brought you home, more than 17 years ago now, you became a part of my life. You were my constant companion and brought me years of joy, unselfish devotion, and love. I miss your soft brown eyes, your long red tail, and even that silly little snore that surrounded me as you napped by my side. I will never forget you and want to thank you for the sheer joy you brought me all these years. Seeing you go was extremely hard but I know you are in a better place and are no longer experiencing the pain and frustration of growing old. I will remember you always with lots of love and more importantly lots of wonderful memories. Thank you for all you gave to me while you were a part of my life. I love and miss you!

Ford, 03/10/01

To my "son": Your last look at me, your last meow, as you lay on the balcony; Your final goodbye to me. I love you so much and will miss you always. I will look for you desperately when I meet you at "The Rainbow Bridge".

Forrest, 28/06/01

What can I say, other than he was, and still is, loved very much. He wasn't in pain and it was very quick when he passed on. His brother and I will miss him very much, but we will never forget him! He was my best friend.

Foxy, 04/10/82-06/06/01

We got Foxy one month after we were married in May of 1982 and had her for 19 years. She will always be considered a part of our family. Letting her go was one of the hardest things we had to do. When I wake up in the morning I still expect to hear her cry for milk, but the house is silent. We love you Foxy and miss you.

We can't even begin to express what happiness, joy & laughter you have brought to our lives for 15 years. you were a loyal and trusted friend always there for us in good times and bad. It's hard to believe you have left us , through our tears we watch your photo and wish that you were here beside us with those big brown eyes that looked at us with unconditional love. we will miss you, you are for ever in our hearts, we love you Foxy.

Foxxy, 09/15/97-12/16/00

Foxxy, my sweet baby angel. You were taken from me so suddenly and unexpectedly at the tender age of 3 years.

You are my baby angel you gave me so much love, happiness & joy over the years of your sweet little life.

You meant the world to me - you were my life. If 3 years was all that God had intended for us to be together, I have loved every day that you were with me you touched my life in such a way that I didn't believe was possible until you came into my life my baby angel will always be in my heart, and will always be remembered.

Foxxy, you brought me so much love, happiness, & joy; unconditionally as I did to you

God has chosen this path for you------

Some day we will be together again.

Until then;

Rest in peace
My sweet baby angel
Foxxy

I love you & we all miss you very much


Fozie, 07/25/01

We got you when you were just a young bird at a pet store. You were brought up with and outlived 4 pooches, a variety of finches, parakeets, guinea pig, a gold fish and you outlived them all. We had a special whistle for you Fozie, and you would do the "fozie 2 step", and you loved to strut in front of our Olde English Sheepdog and ride upon her head. She was a gentle one who let you do it without any harm. You loved toast on weekends and would wake us up to get your treat.
Your companion Penelope bird of 17 years misses you and seems alone even though we talk to her. We make sure she is happy but she knows she lost one she loved. Lately though, on weekends she wakes us up with a whistle, and yes she gets the toast she loves.
We loved you all those 22 years and now you rest with all your friends. You rest in peace in our yard with a flying angel near your site and planted Heather in your honor.

Fraggle, 14/10/88-11/09/01

Even though we knew you didn't have long left with us, we didn't expect you to go when you did. Forgive us for making that decision for you after you fought so hard to stay with us. You would have sruggled on and you were so weak. We are finding it hard to go on with out you. Here is our verse to you that we did for you :You may be gone but here you'll stay in our hearts forever. We love and miss you always.

How do we go on with out you when it hurts so much? We are even questioning our decision we made for you. We hope that you will forgive us and we hope that we will see you again.

Fraggle we can't believe you've gone. We just have to take each day as it comes. Life without you is so hard to bear. After all you were our secret ingredient to a perfect life. Here in our hearts forever you will stay. How do we go on without you? When life seems so unfair as we are so sad and lonely without you. You were and still are so special to us. Thanks for all the fun and great memories you have given us. Until we meet again please be happy now you are at last free from pain you brave soldier. Graham even misses you. We miss you so much it hurts.
You died on a disaster of a day not only did we feel the pain, but many others who lost loved ones because of those terrorists in America.

Francine, 07/16/01

For Francine, 17 year old kitty, who tragically passed on July 16, 2001:

A sweet little fluff of black beauty and outstanding tail, courageous in her illness, huntress supreme, I love you so much and will miss you always. I only wish I could have done more for you.

Francis, 03/27/99-06/25/01

Much love to Francis, the best kitty of all time (that is, along with your little brother Iggy). Iggy and I miss you so much. We wish you peace and happiness wherever you are. Bye bye, little boy!

Frank, 10/02/01

Frank was rescued from a puppy mill where he had been abused. He was the sweetest dog ever.

Mary and Mallory Hardin


Frankie, 06/10/92-08/21/01

Frankie was my angel girl who came to me form "kitty heaven," she appeared on my door step nine summers ago, 5 kittens in tow, emaciated, starving and full of unrequited love.
I had wonderful years with her. She was here for my marriage, our first home, a puppy (now a 102 pound dog) the birth of my first child.
Two dogs attacked her the first week of August, 2001. Loose, or stray dogs. they hurt her very badly. For a while there, we thought she was going to make it. She tried her hardest to survive and yesterday, lost her battle. My dear, sweet cat, I'll never again hear you little soft meow, or feel you curled against me while I sleep. I will always have you in my heart. I hope, someday, to see you again.

Hadley Fried


Frankie, 9/7/98-8/2/01

My husband came home from work the day before Thanksgiving and there was Frankie. My husband saved him from a family that he had delivered a barn to. They asked him if he wanted a dog and he said sure. I was so surprised and fell in love right away. Frankie sat in my lap all the way to Thanksgiving dinner. Frankie was a child to us and will continue to grow in our hearts. Frankie passed away on 8/2/01 and he was born 9/7/98. Frankie was hit by a car and passed away. We will never forget him and he will always be with us.

Frankie (Sonsteby's Ninety-Six Tears), 11/23/92-10/17/00

Tribute to a very special Champion whippet, She was a Specialty winner, a Best in Match winner, and a Best in Sweeps winner. Frankie was a favorite with her Wooooooo Woooo greetings and always having her special Lobster toy with her at all times even taken outside with her to go potty. She is survived by her two daughters and a son. "Frankie" Or The Frankenstein, Stein weather, Franken wheather, is a hard act to follow, she is sorely missed.

Kristy Kenyon


Frankie, 10/99-11/00

Frankie was adopted from a local animal rescue organization. His foster mom had named him Squeak, but I thought that was a bit undignified for the rowdy, strapping cat I was sure he would become (even though he had an adorable pink nose, feet, and ears, and his "strapping" meow was more like a squeak!) He was 5 months old. We fell in love with each other very quickly.
He loved to play fetch like a dog with the furry little mouse toys I gave him. If I lounged in bed too long after the alarm went off, he'd climb up on my chest and kiss me on my nose and lips. He was loving and happy and had personality-plus. He was perfect in every way.
As the summer of 2000 faded into fall, Frankie became quieter and slept more. I attributed it to the change of seasons, colder weather, and growing up. By November, though, I realized something was wrong. A trip to the vet didn't provide any immediate answers--perhaps an injury to his back, as he had a sensitive spot near his shoulder, perhaps an infection. We went home with medicines and hopes for recovery. He continued to decline, however, and we went back to the vet. Tests were done, and the diagnosis finally was feline infectious peritonitis. The vet treated him with interferon in a last-ditch effort, but to no avail. He was euthanized on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. I live with the guilt of thinking maybe I could have done something if I'd realized he was sick earlier. Or maybe he wouldn't have gotten sick if he had never gone outside. Or maybe his older "sister" is a carrier of the virus. I hope that the veterinary sciences put forth full effort into refining the vaccine for this disease. Currently there is much controversy regarding the effectiveness, safety, and dosage of the vaccine, and many vets, mine included, do not make their patients' owners aware of the vaccine for these reasons.

Frankie was only a year old, and I miss him terribly. He was the best cat that ever lived.


Frankie, 08/21/92-10/19/00

Frankie was our first kitty and so much a part of our family. We think of him every day! He holds such a special place in our hearts! We love you, Franco Man! xoxo Daddy & Mommy

Frankie, 04/98-12/23/00

Frankie, you will be missed greatly. Thank you for the affection you showed for me, and especially the love, companionship and friendship you gave my father. I know that you are now in a place where this is no pain, struggle or strife. You deserve nothing less. Please know that we are all thinking of you, everyday, and that you are in our prayers, everynight. I will never forget the stories your Daddy told me about you. It's hard to believe that you were the only cat left in that pet store. But who could have known the absolute joy and love you were to bring into this world? Your big head, and tiny body--you were so beautiful. You are so beautiful. Thank you so much, Sweetie. All my love to you. Peace be with you.

Frankie (Frankenstein), adopted 01/02/98-01/27/01

Frankie, How sad I am that you are gone. Just three years ago we adopted you from the pound, although in our hearts you were our child. You made our family complete and now we have such a sad void. I'm so sorry for the carelessness of others and their cruelty. God will keep you safe now. We love you girl and your sisters and brother miss you. Your love and beauty will always be in our hearts. Love Mom and Dad

Frankie-Pooh, 1/8/01

My sweet Frankie girl, it seems like yesterday we rescued you from the pit in Brooklyn where you were abused. You came into my life and changed it forever. You will always be in my heart and I will love you forever. You were the best pooh-girl anyone could have ever ask for. I wish I had more than 6 years with you but those years will be cherished for the rest of my life. The family is not the same without you. You will always be my little girl!

Fraser (Woochie Poochie), 08/24/01

He was a special needs dog at times, but I know now, that that what made our love so deep and sweet and pure. I wouldn't trade the last year of his life, for the 17 years before. Our love together turned golden, like the sunshine we sat in together, blissfully, silently, in love and communion. Nobody could understand, the purity, the truth, and the blissfulness, of the love we shared in the last weeks of his life. Always follow your heart.
Your heart knows better what to do, before you ever do.
Always follow your heart.
Let the rest of the world go.
Life is only wasted, in the love not shared.
Love you Frase,
Lianna.


Fraulein Ebony (Miss Ebbie), 03/19/01-08/27/01

I miss your smile, the smell of your ears and feet.
there is no little dance as I come through the front door, no Rotti talk to let me know what you wanted.
I miss hearing the sliding patio door and then the sweet face looking around the kitchen cabinet searching for the stare of your beautiful brown eyes into mine.
I miss you letting me know that the other guys had finished the water, no more dish dance.
I miss the way you pushed on the door with your nose to remind me where the food was kept and that it was time to feed you.
I miss seeing you beside me in the front seat of the car.
I miss the way you made me feel so safe, all the time.

I miss the sound of your nails on the ceramic floor.
I miss always being able to drop my hand from the couch and knowing that it would rest upon your soft warm body.

I miss your neverending supply of gentle loving kisses.


But most of all I miss and me.

Yesterday as I sat in the yard I stared at your favorite spot and closed my eyes and wished you could be there for just on last look, having you lovingly look into my eyes and have you read my mind, knowing how much I love you and then watching you lay your head on your paws and go off to sleep with the sun shining on your face and the wind gently blowing your ears..

You will always be my beautiful love, that fast and curious bouncy and kissy girl in my heart..

Rotti girl for ever

Freckles, 04/11/97

My tribute is to my wonderful companion of 21 yrs. I got her when I was six years old, and can barely remember life without her. She was a runt, and was always a tiny girl, but had more personality than a Mac truck! Freckles was/is a very special, important part of my life, and I miss her and remember her each and every day. She always "talked" and did this funny little "prrrrrt" sound:)Of course, I knew what she was saying. She now rests on my family's property in Alabama, alongside Misty and Little Bit. Goodnight, my sweet angel, and I can't wait until you can purr on my lap again.


Freckles, 04/98

Best friend during the darkest time. Special companion to Hopi. Freckle's dislike of cats brought me one of the nicest dogs, ever.

This page is to Freckles Michelle! She was born on 9/26/98 and passed away on 01/11/01. She was a black and white dalmatian. She had brown eyes. She was the best dog anyone could ask for. She was loyal, there when you need someone to talk to, or just someone to love or even cry to. She seemed to know when something was wrong she would come over and give you kisses to make you feel better. She was one of the family it feels like I lost my mom! She was my 2nd mom and my best friend. Well Freckles you know I love you. And someday me and you are going to be together. LOVE ALWAYS UR FAMILY!!! FRECKLES WE MISS YOU UR FAMILY.

Fred, 03/05/86-12/15/01

A Tribute to Our Dear Fred. Your mother was just a stray that wanted a warm place to have her kittens. When she decided to take over our garage and refused to leave, what could we do? We were surprised to come home one day and see 3 kittens there also in our garage. Then, we were repaid for our kindness when she had a 4th kitten, much smaller that the others. That poor little thing was you. You weren't like the other kittens. You let us hold you closer and longer than any of the others. You had stolen our hearts :-) Instead of chasing birds, you wanted to sit in the flowers. You seemed to think our black Labrador was your dad. You would follow him around most of the day. You never misbehaved by jumping on the counters or couches. Somehow though, you did learn how to open doors with handles. Through your almost 16 years, we've shared many happy and hard times. Your presence always comforting, always purring our tears away and bringing joy to our hearts. You fought your way back from many near death illnesses. You would seek out the warm loving arms that you always knew would be there for you. You gazed lovingly into the eyes of those who have loved you since birth. When you were ill, you were inspired to eat when Glo would sing to you. You loved to meow your own song in the mornings when you decided that it was time for everyone to be awake. This time, as we found out that you were ill with no hope for recovery, the tears flowed like a small stream. You were still showing how strong your spirit was. You continued to show your love by extra nuzzling and purring, as if to comfort us when we cried. You know the special place that you will always have in our hearts. We will celebrate your life with many happy memories. We find comfort in knowing that one day we will have a joyous reunion at the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you Fred for being so special. You were truly one of a kind. You are loved and missed by many friends and family. Until we meet at the Bridge. Love, Gloria & Rich A.


Fred, 11/03/01

Fred was abandoned along the road by his former owners; fortunately he found caring and love in his final months. doGspeed, sweet pup! Andie will play with you until I get there. You are missed.

Mary Jane Isles


Fred

A gentle soul was our Fred. His pure joy was a walk in the woods or a run on the beach. A cheerful face every morning; a welcome greeting every evening. A bridge for the cats; a pillow for Mom and Brian. An unparalleled companion who can never be replaced. A young life cut short by illness. My angel straight from heaven. I miss him so.


Fred (Fredrica), 10/01/89-05/21/01

My little Fred, I will miss your little whistles and chirps you made to say good morning, to get my attention and when you were happy and content. You were unlike any other parakeet (my friends always said that about you). After 12 years you decided to "try" and lay an egg, that's when I found out you were really "Fredrica", that egg took you from me today. You will be in my heart forever......please wait for me with Cricket and the "bridge"....rest in peace my little featherbaby........you will be missed terribly. .....luv you always......Sue & Dennis


Fred, 02/03/01

THE FRED AND ME

We've seen seventeen summers come
and almost eighteen winters go.
You watched us hold hands at dawn
that we never really got to know.
Me in my T-shirt, you with your whiskers
The Fred and me

We've done foolish things together
and the days have served us well.
We've shared cat-to-cat secrets
'cause we knew you'd never tell.
Me in my t-shirt, you with your whiskers
The Fred and me

Looking back few friends had we
Livin' the good life without getting fat
I had her and she had me.

It was today the golden moment came.
And tomorrow you won't wake to smell
the snow and the trees where Cardinals tease and apples fell.
But we'll smile a bit just thinking of it.
Me in my t-shirt, you with your whiskers
The Fred and me


Ron - - "The Big Cat"


THE FRED

I'll show up one day
And you'll wonder, first,
just who it is I am

I too might not be so sure
If you're the one who could be rubbed
and scratched and rubbed and never loved enough

And then we'll talk
And sniff and look
And finally, yes, we'll rub

And you will know that
He's the one
And I will know that she's the one

We'll trust and love once more
And I'll know as you've always known
There's always one rub more.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *  

Sleep Warmly Fred

I ran outside just now
Though I don't like it there
It's cold out there just now
. . . you see, there's snow out there

But the Big Cat
Was going out
So I took the chance
. . . to look about

I took the chance
You would be there
Because you are
. . . not anywhere!

But it was only cold
Out there
And you are still
. . . not anywhere

I ran back in
And hurried to your hall
Then to your room
But . . . you're not there at all!

I miss you Fred
I do not understand
Since I came here you always were
. . . the Princess of this land

You taught me things
That every cat should know
You taught me things
Those humans, too, should know

Playfulness is good, you said
But gentleness, is too
Take it easy, Mille girl, you said
I'm old . . . but yes; I'll play with you!

I'm small, you said, and very light
Don't knock me down
Don't really claw
And I . . . I won't really bite.

Tomorrow Fred, for breakfast
. . . certainly, you'll be there.
The Big Cat will have food ready
. . . and you'll climb the stair

Tomorrow Fred, Ill see you
And then it'll be all right
I hope wherever you're sleeping
Is warm this Saturday night.

Fred, 01/14/01

Fred was a very special member of our family and she will be missed terribly from now until we meet again. She had more love that I have ever seen and I don't know how I will cope with her loss. I know that she is in a better place right now and I hope that she thinks about me as much as I think about her. (Every minute of every day) We love you and miss you terribly Freddy!!!

He was with me since I was a child and I have grown up with her as my only pet. Blessed be, my friend.

David Matthews


Freda, 12/26/85-05/01/01

Freda was an incredible dog, a Pit Bull that defied the horror stories of her breed. Fifteen years and not a single bite or incident. Fifteen years old and a toddler could still love on her without anyone fearing for the child. Strong, smart, caring, really a big baby, afraid of the lightning. I would have to go fetch her out of the bathtub during a storm and make her get in bed with me to calm her down.
My heartbreak is smothering. Friends help but I feel inconsolable. I miss her terribly. My best confidant, always willing to tolerate my hugs, eager to please, always hungry, I could go on and on.
I'm glad you are all her so we can share our grief. I hope everyone can heal quickly as I hope the same for myself.
Thank you Freda, my best friend, good bye and rest in peace my little buddy.

Mike Russo


Freda Lee Jude, 2/14/72-4/24/85

I love you Freda. You have earned the title of the Matriarch of the Clam. The lady who gave you up will never know what a treasure she lost. I know what a treasure I gained. We'll meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. In the meantime, stay as close to Fritz as you did down here (you even joined him at the Bridge a scant two months after he arrived there.) I guess you couldn't stay here without him. I understand. Help him take care of Louis and Little Spot. Spot is so small.

Freddie, 09/91-05/10/01

Freddie,

You were always there for me the last 10 years, good times and bad times. How will I ever get on without you? I am lost without you, looking for you every day when I get home, waiting for you to come to the door to welcome me home. You were a unique and special friend, you seemed to love me above everyone else and knew exactly when I needed you to comfort me. You will forever be missed my Fredster. I only hope you know how much I have loved you. Play in the sunshine of your new life with Sylvester and Kdee and enjoy every moment until I see you again.

Craig Jablonsky


Freddie, 02/03/96-01/25/01

Freddie, of all the dogs I've owned you might have been the funniest. Your arrogance and attitude let everyone know just who was in charge around here. You could be such a clown, and yet behave like you were the king of the world. In your five short years, there wasn't a bit of life that you missed out on. We'll go on without you, but it won't be nearly as much fun. We loved you son, you were a good, good, boy.

Ricky and Brenda Long


Freddie The Ferret, 01/05/00

To our first ferret, Freddie, you made us love you with every little gesture. Following your daddy in and out of the bedroom as he got dressed, taking showers with us and carrying that heavy sponge where ever you made a nest, no matter how hard it was to get it up the stairs. You were our first baby ferret and will never be forgotten. Daddy sends kisses and we both want you to know that Sheena is there now too, and she needs you to show her the way, so be happy, there is a friend to keep you company until we can see you again. We miss you Stinky Boy. Love Mommy and Daddy.


Freddy, 11/05/01

Furry Freddy you are missed terribly, how could you be so perfect, so behaved, so good. Sleep for eternity on your soft blanket.

We love you so

Allen & Jane Thomsen


Freddy, 1993-2001

On Wednesday, September 26, my beloved Freddy died in my arms. I am thankful that he waited for one last cuddle. Freddy brought us 8 1/2 years of comfort, joy and live entertainment. He was so warm next to me when I came in from the cold (a great ear muff!). He licked my tears when I grieved for Bailey (German Shepherd 1987 - 1998). When he was a youngster, his antics made us laugh and even though he tormented Bailey, she protected him and he felt secure with her. I forgive him for all the carpets and telephone wires he chewed. Over the years, many Kindergarten children enjoyed Freddy's visits to our classroom. He was originally intended to be a classroom rabbit, but I didn't have the heart to leave him at school alone, so I took him home every night and he became my baby. As he got older, he was content to stay at home in his room, catching some rays and zzzz's. Although he was "Mama's Boy", Daddy misses him too. We hope he is frolicking with other rabbits in a garden of carrot tops.

Lenora and Phil, Freddy's Mom and Dad


Freddy, 08/30/01

Freddy was the best dog in the whole wide world.. I know that someday we will be together forever.. I hope that it is soon, because I hate being without him.. He gave the best kisses.. I can't wait to feel his kisses again.. He was and will always be my best friend.. I love you Freddy...

Love, Mommy and Mulligan xxx ooo


Freddy, 05/10/98-12/28/00

Freddy, my sweet little guy. I pray that you no longer are suffering and truly are running and playing in the meadows with other dogs. That was always your favorite thing to do here on earth. I feel so sad that your life with us was so short, but fortunate that we did have 2 1/2 years with you. You brought us so much joy and so many laughs. I miss our walks. I miss your whining that sometimes seemed to never end. You whined for treats, to play outside, to go to bed. I miss how your body would shake with excitement every time you would see us pull out your leash.

And I so dearly miss how wonderful you were with Sydney. You accepted her from the day we brought her home. You watched over her, protected her from anything unfamiliar. You would even check on her in her crib when she was sleeping. You were her big brother and you were so good at it. I miss the idea of you two growing up together.

I am so sorry you suffered so in your last months. IBD is such a horrible disease. I hope you are no longer starving and feeling so healthy and strong. I miss you Fred. You are truly an angel! I love you.

Charles and Jessie Elliott


Fred Taylor-Lederer (Aka Senor Fur), 05/11/98-10/28/00

Dearest Fred,
My sweetest Furball! Daddy, Holly and I miss you so very much Not a day goes by that we don't miss you and think of you!! It seems so unfair that you were here for such a short time-- I am glad that you packed as much in as you could and did, because it gives us so many wonderful memories of such a wonderful, amazing, perfect dog!! Like the time you thought that you were using your pet door by putting your head out the door and peeing inside.(It could happen to anybody) Or the time that you destroyed my camera, but managed to take a self portrait of your furry little face-(that one is still in your baby book!) Or even how after your diagnosis with bone cancer, you still had slobbery kisses for everyone at the Vets office and found the strength to jump so high up in the air for your birthday piñata and had the kindness to share the loot with Holly and all of your other friends at your party. (You always were a class act, Fur) Even on your last day on earth, you played the "Run into Mommy and knock her over" game at the park....Remember? I will never forget you, your cheeto-smelly feet, your beautiful face and abundance of love. Trust me, I love you too and I always will. I will see you in Heaven, Senor... be a good boy--you're the Perrrfect and I love you.
Love always, Mommy


Freebie, 04/15/86-01/18/01

Freebie passed from us on Thursday afternoon from sudden complications due to the cancer that he somehow managed to survive with for close to a year. Freebie was a very special and beloved feline companion of ours for nearly 16 years. He is greatly missed by his family, both human and feline alike. His Momma [Sandra] misses her "Babuschka" and the sounds of his two meows that put together sounded just like he was saying "momma". His Daddy [Mike] misses his "Little Buddy". Russell his special, extra Daddy misses his "Freebles" and the sounds of his soft, gentle purrs and the sight of his doing happy feet, as Freebie got his nightly tummy rubs. Peepers, Freebie's older brother by 9 months misses his "Snuggle Buddy". They spent many contented hours curled up together on "their" daybed. Freebie loved treats, sleeping in sunbeams and catnip, but his most favorite thing was food. Freebie loved nothing better than a scoop of fresh food and a nice bowl of cold water. As a kitten, Freebie came to us in a box, with the offer of a free dish. That's how he got his name. To us, from that day forward Freebie was priceless. Our lives are all richer for having him in them. He's in our heart and in our soul forever. We love you and miss you and look forward to the day we will be together once more.

Sandra and Mike and Russell

Freeway, 09/11/93-04/14/01

Dear Freeway,
I love you so much. You were my special little bear. I will never forget you. Someday we will be together again, my precious friend. I'm so sorry. Mama loves you and she's sorry you were cheated out of these beautiful spring days.
I miss you, bunny. Someday I will hold you again. I'm sorry you suffered alone Friday. I'm sorry I didn't know what was happening. I love you very much. -Mama


Freeway, 03/14/01

You were my heart, my soul and very best friend. You will always my in my heart, my soul and my memories. I love you very very much.

We will miss her very much. I am 14 and she meant the world to me, even if she was older then me. God Bless her and I hope she is looking down I me. She sees me cry every night but she is still in my heart and no other pet can replace her

I love you Friend

Friendzy (Frinny), 04/88-01/03/01

I wanted a big puppy for so long...one to run and jump and chase things. I was just a kid then; I wasn't always patient. I didn't train you as I should have, but you were always smart when it counted. I don't think I could ever ask for a better pup. You were so unique, not only physically (you weren't graced with the best body proportionally), but you had the biggest heart. It didn't matter how many new cats or other animals we brought home...you accepted them always. And if we didn't bring them, you did. There was not a jealous bone in your body; you loved unconditionally. Unconditionally. You gave out so much that there was never any way we could ever give it all back. Forever when I see an apple tree, I will see you stretching your neck to pull an apple from the bottom branch for a treat. In the tiny prismic raindrops of a sprinkler, I will remember how you spent one summer afternoon leaping and biting at them. I will remember how I could come outside to tell you all my adolescent sorrows and you would sit with your quiet gaze and listen without prejudice. I will remember how you were *my* first dog, and how there will never be another. I love you, baby, my Frinny-Dog.

Angela (Rogers Family)


Frilly, 1984-04/27/00

I miss you Frilly. Your 3 day old filly I raised on goat's milk. She is beautiful and her facial marking reminds me of you each time I look at her. I wish you were still here with us. We miss you. I hope you are hock deep in green grass and have a big shade tree (the kind you liked so much). I love you Frilly and thank you for the three daughters you left with me. I will always take good care of them.

Sheri Reynolds


Frisbee, 6/15/01

Frisbee, It seems like yesterday was the day you were just s tiny stray cat sitting on the porch of the house back In Pennsylvania. I had never seen such a fuzzball in all my life. We rescued you from a abusive family and changed your name to start your new life with us. I have never seen such a funny cat! You were huge yet a little bit of a scaredy cat when it came to dogs and other cats. I remember when you use to jump on Toby the dog and ride him around the house like a horse. You will forever be the king. How can I ever sleep again without you climbing up on me and :making biscuits" on me until I told you , you are the king.
The end came so sudden I still can't believe you are gone. Did you know how much you are and were truly loved. Goodbye is the hardest the word and I hope you understand if there was anything else I could have done, I would have. Fuzz face I didn't want you to suffer anymore.10 years with you was simply not enough. I will miss you every day. I still expected to see you this morning when I went into the kitchen. Marble misses you and the 3 ferrets are still looking for you. My windowsill is now empty, I will miss seeing you basking in the sun. I love you and will think of you everyday. You can never be replaced my friend. My friend you are gone from me physically but I will think of you everyday. Maybe one day, another cat will come into my life and remind me of you, maybe even have a little bit of you inside. I will wait for that day to come. Tell me how to cope, when will the pain in my heart subside. I know where you are now , you are no longer in pain and you are probably sunning yourself as you are looking down on me. I miss you my fuzzbe. I know you and Toby are together again. Until we meet again at the rainbow bridge, I love you Frisbee.

Frisco, 12/25/85-07/01

Frisco, my girl, my best bud. Who else could guide me through my years of growing up? who was always there, even after dad died, who grieved with me? No one else but you. I love you with all my heart. I wish I could have one more night of holding you in my arms and hugging you to death, I never really said goodbye, but I know its a see you later baby. I love you more than you know and I know your out of pain and in heaven right now. Here's to you Frisco.

Ashley


Frisco, 03/11/89-07/17/01

We loved you for 12 years. You brought joy into our lives that we never thought we could have with an animal. We have dedicated our time our love and have considered you as one of our pack. Heaven just got another angel when you passed on. You will always be in our hearts, our dear Frisco. Rest in peace.

Rhoda Barcan


Frisco, 07/07/01

Frisco was my Little Buddy and my Angel. He taught me to have joy in every moment and to aspire to be happier and happier with every successive moment. Little Buddy and I shared a special connection unique to ourselves and loved eachother so much it tickled inside. We were only ever apart when I was at work. Otherwise he was with me or on my lap. Frisco was struck by a car when he was experiencing a burst of energy and he was killed instantly. I am mourning his death having put him to rest in the ground yesterday. My aunt and I will plant a gardenia bush beside him and more plants in the future. I have two other dogs who are also deeply affected by the loss of Frisco and we are helping eachother grieve. It is difficult to do anything without my Little Buddy and I wish a miracle would bring him back to me. He brightened my life as he brightened any room and I miss his sparkle and I miss his love. I wish for him to be at peace and not upset with me for not using the leash that day but I did not think we needed it. I was expecting to pick him up and carry him and I was not expecting that he would run down the stairs and run into the street. We did not usually need the leash and the street was deserted which makes it unbelievable that a car hit him. I want to think this was God's will and that it was time for Frisco to return to God. It is a dilemma within me because I also want to curse and condemn myself for not using the leash Saturday morning especially because I considered it. I am so, so sorry. As much as he loves me I know Frisco forgives me and he knows I am suffering. In honor of Frisco I will do my best to maintain the special ways he taught me -- the special way to live with hope and happiness and joy just for the sake of it. He taught me that it is a choice to be happy and to go for it. In the name of Frisco I will remember all of our good times and I will not dwell on the two minutes leading to his death. Before I opened the door I held him in my lap and kissed him a hundred times and told him how I loved him with all my heart and that he was an angel. I also said I did not know what I would do without him. Alas, I will remember everything he taught me and I will continue living a life that is all the better because he was in it. I love you Frisco. I love you Little Buddy. I miss you.

You always had a smile on your face and love in your heart. You will be loved and remembered forever. Goodbye my daughter. I love you.

Lisa Carlson


Frisky, 1987-08/25/01

These past 14 years were made better by you frisky. You'll never know how important you were to us. Frisky was not just a cat/pet, she was part of the family. I'll miss the way you sat in the window and sprawled yourself across the beds and floors. Nothing in this house or my life is the same without you. I just wish I could of done something to help or heal you. I never knew such heart break when the vet put you to sleep but I couldn't bear the thought of seeing you suffer in pain anymore. Knowing that you are in heaven with God and "living" pain free is some what comforting but I miss seeing you at home with us. I just want to tell you Frisky that I love you and miss you deeply and I cannot wait to see your beautiful eyes and face again when I go to heaven someday. You were the love of my life and my mother and I are proud to have you in our lives and heart. You're the best thing that ever happened to us. We love you and miss you. May you feel free of pain in heaven with God and Mommy and I cannot wait to see you again in heaven. I love you baby and miss you! There isn't a moment or day that I don't think of you!! Goodbye sweetheart!!! I love you!!! We will meet again in Heaven!! xoxoxo


Frisky, 09/10/00

Frisk, I miss you so much, you were a brat but I loved you so much. Now your brother Boo Boo is coming to see you, take care of each other.

Lisa


Frisky, 8/12/01

My Frisky was my life...he was with me for about 14 years and I had to put him to sleep. Will miss him terribly. Have a hollow heart now.


Frisky, 1991-07/27/01

I'll miss the way you rubbed my feet,
and your pat on my arm when you were ready to eat.

I'll miss the way you'd follow Jared for a treat,
and the way you meowed, oh, so sweet.

I'll never forget you, my Fritter, and the way you looked
at me in the end.
For it was to a better place without pain that was meant
for you for me to send.

You will always be with us, of that I'm sure.
The love of a pet like you is nothing short of
everlasting and pure.

Your loving family, Mommy, Daddy, Jared, Chessi,
Ziggy, Puffy, and Cagney.


Frisky, 04/01/90-01/08/01

Thank you Frisky, for 10 1/2 wonderful years of love and fun. We will miss your rattling your food dish, interrupting homework, slapping us with your tail when we try to watch TV, chattering over birds out the window, and cuddling against us when we were sick. We wish you could have been with us longer. You were one of the sweetest kitties we ever had. We will never forget you.

Lisa, Lindsay, Lauren, Drew, Phil and Rich


Frisky Kitty, 6/25/85-4/18/01

Dear Frisky (aka Killer Dog) brought joy to us daily. She gave us all she had to give unconditionally. She was forever bringing her treasures to us to prove how much she cared for us. But neither mice, or bunnies or birds could dampen her spirits. She brought comfort to us during our time of sorrow and tried to ease our pain. We will miss her until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. he was nine years old and your love and devotion to her have helped her through many painful times in her life. As you leave this world please know that you were well loved by all of us in the family. Our lives have all been richer for you're having been a part of ours for so long. When you go to the bridge tomorrow you will have many friends there to welcome you and you will be young and whole again Tara's life will have a very large void once you are gone but you will live on in our hearts forever. Til we meet again. Farewell sweet boy.

Maureen Loney


Fritz, 08/06/83-06/06/92

You were so beautiful and precious ..we miss you so very much we cry and remember our Fritzy Boy you'll always be loved and missed love your family...Mommy and Daddy Kathy Billy and Jimmy love hugs and kisses forever in our hearts


Fritz, 02/07/01-06/21/01

Fritz watched my every move and never took his eyes off of me. Unable to use his back legs, he would crawl just to be by my side. I called him "My little body guard". He was indeed a very special puppy.

Mahlan Brazill


Fritz, 05/05/01

Fritz, you have been a very special friend to Tara since she was nine years old and your love and devotion to her have helped her through many painful times in her life. As you leave this world please know that you were well loved by all of us in the family. Our lives have all been richer for you're having been a part of ours for so long. When you go to the bridge tomorrow you will have many friends there to welcome you and you will be young and whole again Tara's life will have a very large void once you are gone but you will live on in our hearts forever.

Your Daddies miss you very much. So do Woofgang and Ziggy.

Fritzie

Fritzie literally showed up at my doorstep several weeks after the sudden death of my mother in 1998. I know this little angel was sent to me for a reason and I have been so blessed to have him in my life. While our time together was short, I am thankful that I was given such a precious gift. He taught me much and gave me more love than I ever thought possible. Friends and family always joked about how Fritzie was "spoiled rotten" and what a fortunate little kitty he was. In truth, I was the fortunate one and the bond that he and I share can never be broken--even in death.

Thank you Fritzie, for coming into my life and, along with your brother Smokey, for being the best part of it. Thank you for choosing me and giving me the privilege of being your Mom. I love you with all my heart and soul...forever and ever. Give Grandma a kiss for me and I'll see you soon.

Mom


Fritz Lee Jude, 7/18/68-2/3/85

I love you Fritz. You were my first as an adult. I always called you the Patriarch of the Clan. I learned how truly to love cats because of you. We'll meet again at the Rainbow Bridge, in the meantime, take care of Freda, Louis and Spot.

Mary Anne


Frizzy, 03/02/01

Frizzy was my adoring little friend. No matter what kind of day I had, he would make me laugh with his little dances. The more I laughed the more he danced. I looked forward to coming home and having him greet me with those loving dark eyes. He was the joy of my life. I have had many dogs, but none filled me with the love that I felt for Frizzy. I will miss him forever.

Pat


Frodo Baggins, 04/86-04/20/01

Dear Frodo, you always greeted everyone with your doggy smile and wagging tail. Visiting Dog at Children's Hospital. All those years of jogging, miles and miles, with me. I know you were sad when you could not run anymore. Now, you're running, catching Frisbees, and chasing butterflies. Play tug-o-war with your little scotty friend, Lisa. We love you, Frodo.

Barry, Charissa, Shoshannah, and Wolfgang Ebersole


Froggie, 02/01/97-03/07/01

Our best pal, you were the one-eyed cat who loved to take showers with Lonne, to enjoy a nip of beer with Erik, and playing with Travis. You are mourned by your biological brother Dolemite (or "Winkie", with who you worked with in tandem), your sister Miss Kitka, and your sister Toots the Rottweiler -- our hearts are broken, and we miss you more than you could know.

Lonne & Erik Martinec and Travis Frey


Froggy, 11/11/83-12/15/01

In memory of our sweet "Froggy". He was born 11/11/83. This wonderful kitty passed away today, 12/15/01 at the age of 18. He was ill for only 2 weeks. He was a little clown and a devoted baby. We will miss him so much. He is with his mom, Anjan-San, his sister Rags and his brother Domino now. And his buddies Clark and Mocha. Rest in peace sweet baby and we'll see you at the Rainbow Bridge. We love you so much. If tears could bring you back to us, we would be together again, but you will always be in our hearts. Love, Mommy Daddy and Bailey.


Froot, 02/12/00-03/12/01

Froot died in our house fire on march 31st this year. Her four kittens also passed away. They were only 4 weeks old and they were as special to us as Froot was. Unbearable grief knowing that our dog Buster tried to save them and was not only unable to do so, but was injured trying. Froot and her kittens are sadly missed. Buster has fully recovered.

Jan Puckett


Frosty, 05/23/01

Frosty has been my companion and support through several moves, a divorce, clinical depression... He was a gentle protector, a wonderful traveler, a mentor to younger dogs, a perfect gentleman. He loved women and grew to tolerate men; adored my grown children and guarded them as they grew. He leaves an empty space in my life that I doubt will ever be filled. I will see him at the bridge someday.

Sandy


Frosty, 07/13/88-02/04/01

We will miss our little "rosty dog"(nickname). He always had a smile for us when we were blue and always licked our tears away. We will never forget you boy. Have fun, till we play again together.

Brian


Furby, 10/17/98-09/17/99

Thank you for sending Snickers

Nancy Monaghan


Furzy, 09/02/01

You were a special friend Furzy. You made us laugh when you would nibble a carrot or stretch and yawn. We will miss you very much and will always remember the time we had with you. Have fun in Heaven.

Tracy & Hailee


Fu Shou, 16 March 2001

Fu Shou, my friend. Always there for me when I was so ill. You never left my side. You went to Rainbow Bridge only yesterday, and our pain is so intense, but to know that dear Zena is waiting for you on the other side is of comfort to us left behind. Asia will miss you terribly, and it is so sad that you will not see her first litter of kittens, but we all know that you would never leave us completely, and you are forever in our hearts. Rest in peace, brave, loving, gentle boy. We all love you.

Chrissy Russell


Fuzi, 03/87-08/27/01

She was part of our lives for fourteen years. She never realized she was a cat. She was always our little princess. She loved to get her make-up on each morning when I would get ready for work. She loved to curl up under her blankie and sleep. She always had to be where we were, it didn't matter what room (including the bathroom!). I picked her out to be mine the day she was born. I brought her home when she was not yet six weeks old. I will always remember the way she slept against my chest, her little head nestled under my chin all the way home. I miss her and will always love and remember my precious little princess, Fuzi.

Donna L. Pate


Fuzzy, 08/08/86-02/19/01

This is tribute to my special "fuzzybear" who gave me the best 15 1\2 years a person could ever ask for. May her little doggie soul rest in peace and may she cross that "rainbow bridge" into her daddy and uncle's loving arms. May she now be able to play with her slipper again. I love you fuzzybear always...your mom


Fuzzy, 02/89-07/02/01

Fuzzy,

You were my best friend. You will be greatly missed by everyone that knew you!!!!!!!

Joe Dixon


Fuzzy, 1985-04/27/01

Dear Fuzzy,

You can't read, or maybe where you are now, you can. I hope you can. The past six weeks have been the worst of my life because you were sick. My heart broke a little bit more each day as I watched you struggle to be brave, even though you felt terrible most of the time. I don't know where you came from, but I do know that the day you were sitting in front of my door is one of the happiest days of my life. Do you remember? I got out of the car and expected you would run. You didn't–well, you did, but not in the direction I expected you to. Instead, you ran to me and purred and demanded affection. I was in love at that moment, and I believe you were, too. We went through a lot together, my dear friend. You were always there, though, when no one else was. You humbled me, Fuzzy. Your love was unconditional and a kind that I had never felt before. I felt psychically connected to you. You taught me what it felt like to love absolutely, with my whole heart, and expect nothing in return. The greatest thing is that you did give me something in return. You were like a magic mirror–everything I gave you was reflected back onto me, tenfold. Looking into your soulful eyes gave me a glimpse of wisdom and serenity I had never experienced before. Your rumbling purr lulled me to sleep at night and greeted me each morning. You were, and still are, a part of my soul. There has never been a time in the almost 14 years we were together that I haven't been aware of your presence–where you were, what you were doing, how you were feeling. Now I know where you are, but I don't know how you are doing or how you are feeling. I can only hope that you are feeling young and vigorous and that you are happy.

I miss you. My heart broke on Friday, Fuzz. I saw how scared and sick you were, but you remained calm. You purred to the very end. When I felt you stop purring, a light in my soul went out forever. How can I ever get used to you not being here? Your brothers and sisters miss you, too. Punky's heart is broken, but he doesn't understand why or how it happened. Chance still thinks you are hiding somewhere in the house. Noaa is confused. Dad misses you, too, and his heart hurts as much as mine does. We all want you back.

Wherever you are, Fuzzy, please come back to me. You came to me in my dreams twice since Friday. You were sleepy and well and purring and happy. This comforted me, but when I woke, I realized again that you were gone. For so many mornings, my first waking moments have been an awareness of you either sleeping happily next to me or waiting patiently for me to wake. I wouldn't trade those moments for anything.

I am sorry you had to suffer so at the end. You were brave and even tried to warn me that your time was near. I understood what you were trying to tell me, but I didn't listen–how could I ever accept what you were trying to tell me?

Perhaps some day I will meet a kitten who will look at me and I will understand that you have come back to me. That as yet unborn kitten has an awfully big job on its little shoulders–how can such a little creature carry such a big heart and soul? Well, you managed it, so it can be done. There's a spot in my heart reserved just for you, and when you choose to come back to me, I'll be waiting. I say when because I have to believe you will return. Somehow that helps me get through the days. If I had to believe that you were gone forever, never to return, I would not be able to make it through these terrible, empty days. I'm trying not to cry too much because I know how upset that made you. I just can't help it right now, so please forgive me.

Thank you for so many years of pure, unconditional love and acceptance, my dearest friend. I am so lucky to have had your love for so long. I love you with all my heart, and my soul awaits your return to me. Rest for awhile, Fuzzy. You lived a long life and you are probably tired. When you feel rested, come back to me. I'll be waiting.

I love you, Your mother, who is still amazed at the wonder you brought to her life. 5/1/01

Every time I came home she always played with Marie and I. She always wanted to come in the house when we came home. She could run and hide. she always tried to get out. Then one day she dug a hole and got out.
