You were a very loving and special baby to all of
us.
Thank you for allowing us to share 17 wonderful years
with you.
You were such a trooper!
Love Mummy, Daddy, Donna, Narelle and all the
grandkids.
We will miss you

Morgan,
You are the best; I'm so sorry Girl. I know you were in pain and never cried. Not once did you even whimper. You were so strong. I bet you're in Haven retrieving things for God. I will see you soon, you wait on me, and As soon as I get there we will go to Gods pond and let you swim. I LOVE YOU GIRL!
PS: Tell Jabo Hi
Your Dad Charles
Jacette gave us so much. She would rather entertain, charm, and love us than receive all the love we gave her. We'll never forget her, especially her hind leg stretch. To know her was to love her. Rest in peace, Angel. Love, Mamma Daddy and J.P.
Jack, 06/05/04
My sweet Jack. I miss you more than I can say. I love you more than words can express. You were a sweet and beautiful girl right up until the end. I long for one more hug, one more caress. My arms are empty and my heart is broken. I can't imagine life without you. I hope and pray you are in a better place and that someday we will be together again. All my love forever, Mommy.
To my sweet boy. I'm so sorry you had to leave us. We tried so hard. And you fought so valiantly.
I know that dogs go to heaven, because how could it be heaven if you weren't there?
And all these years when I thought I was taking care of you, it was REALLY you taking care of me/us. We'll be ok, continue on my sweet prince.

Jack, its hard without you here, If I had one
wish, and
it was granted id wish upon the brightest star that God would
let me see
you just one for a moment to say I love you and you are sadly
missed. Until
the day we meet again and are not so far apart I send you all
the love
within my heart.
love mom
My trusted friend......your unconditional love is
sorely
missed.

Be happy.
Bev
Jack, I love you and miss you still. Wait for me with Teddy. Mom
Jack, you were and are my best friend, my baby, and the love of my life. You gave me the best you had, were always there for me, and loved me to no end. I will always love you and never forget you. I miss you terribly, and I look forward to seeing you again to get your sweet doggie kisses and the feel of your soft furry ears in my hand. You are the most stubborn, free-spirited, silly, beautiful dog I have ever known, and I can't imagine how my life would have been for the last sixteen and a half years without you. Thank you for your friendship and love and loyalty. You have taught me many lessons and made me a better human than I ever could have hoped to be. Always remember me, and please wait for me. I will see you again. Love you, mommy.
Jacie, It's been 2 months since I last held you.
Two months of memories of your loving eyes, your gracious heart.
I still curl up at night expecting you next to me, waking and
wondering
where you are...then remembering.
You will always be a part of my heart Jackie ... Until we meet
at the Bridge...Run
fast and play hard...
Charly
Our dear, sweet, loving Jack...may you rest in peace and know that you are loved and missed very much.

Jack's life was a short one, but oh what joy he
brought
us while he was here.
We will remember him always.

Jackie, 10/31/88-05/28/04
A funny bunny of a cat. The best jumper-ever! A great singer and talker. We'll always love you.
Karen and Danette
Jackie you were always known as the Big Bully and
Pudgie
and I will miss you very much. You were taken from us so quickly
but I
am glad that you didn't suffer long. I love you, my beautiful
black girl.
Love Mommy
Jackie you will be missed more than you could know. You were Simons ears. He will be lost without you. You were our protector....our funny lady....we love you.
Shannon
Jackie was one of those one of a kind pets. I know everyone feels their pet was the best or very special, and they all are, but Jackie was unusual. She had learned the behaviour of smiling as a puppy, and only a select few of her immediate family were privileged to be smiled at. If she felt like a swim at the cottage, away she went, quite content to paddle around on her own. She was faithful, loyal and caring. Like most pets, she knew when her friends needed comfort and a cuddle. Being a forty pound dog, of course she thought she was a lap dog, and did not hesitate to climb into your lap if SHE needed a cuddle. She was diagnosed with bone cancer in the front left leg in April of '03. We watched with dread as the tumor progressed and it was with great sadness that we had her euthanized this monday at 10:00 a.m. My husband and I held her as she peacefully drifted away. We love you Jackie!

The short time you were with me i loved you so
much and
will always remember you in my heart.
love always mom
Jackson- A.K.A Jack Massetti, 05/18/96-05/22/04
Jack was just like his name, a strong, sturdy, loyal dog. He loved to run, hike and camp and accompanied his mom and dad on many excursions throughout the United States. Jack was a champion swimmer and rock-diver and would swim for hours and hours on out. Outswimming all the other dogs and people alike. He loved sleeping in his mom and dad's bed and going to cookouts, where he would sneak treats until he couldn't move! Jack was a big lovable dog and will be sadly missed by many of his dog and people friends. He is survived by his two cat brothers, Willie and Ernie, and his chocolate lab dog cousin, Buddy.

Jackson, 04/15/95-05/19/04
In loving memory of our beautiful baby boy Jackson. We miss you and will love you always. You will never be forgotten.
Jane Roark
Jackson was a much-loved 12-year-old red Abyssinian who passed away on April 27. His sweet, affectionate nature endeared him to everyone he met. Jackson, you will always be held close in our hearts.

Jacob, 05/26/04
With deep sadness Jacob suddenly left us Wednesday evening. And he left behind a little 5 year old girl (my neice) Sunni, who loved him dearly and considered herself his "Mommy". May she always remember the special bond they shared and the love he gave so unconditionally. And may this sweet kitten know how great her love was for him and how missed he will be.
Tina Martin-Selders
Jake - You will live on forever in our souls and
hearts.
We all MISS YOU EVERY MINUTE of everyday. We thank God for
sending you
to us to share our lives together. I needed you more than you
needed me.
You were my best bud - so loyal and unconditional. I am so sorry
for the
pain you experienced. I pray you are at peace now. We have your
picture
in every room and I talk to you all the time. I hope you can
hear me and
I pray we will be together again. I love you BUBS!!!!
Tish
Jacqueline, you're still the bestest looking dog in Eisenstein.
Donna and Jack Steinacker
Jake and I had lived together for over 18 years. I adopted her in Lincoln, NE and we traveled around the US together. She was such a great friend to me and I shall miss her dearly. We used to play hide & seek and bedmice and she was so funny and loving. She always knew when we weren't feeling well and would lay beside the family member that was sick to take care of us. Now, she's gone and I don't know what I'll do without her. I don't know how I'll sleep at night without her nudging me to move over more. We shall miss our baby. My Jake.
Kristin & Thomas Himes
To the very best Siamese cat I have ever shared my life with. Your 17 1/2 years were way too short for all of us who loved you dearly. You were loving, kind and ALWAYS by our side when we were lonely, troubled or sad! You put up a very gallant fight to survive longer but finally gave me the sign you were ready to go "home" on February 28, 2004. It was the most difficult decision I have ever had to make in my life and letting you go was so very painful but I knew it was for the best and that you deserved to be pain-free at long last. Jade, I love you and miss you every single day of my life and ALWAYS will!
Karen L. Bachman
Jade, I love and miss you terribly. Sheeba misses you and so does ruby. our house is not home without you. I know you are in gods loving arms now, running free and looking down on us. we miss you. mommy
Jadey girl, Mum and Dad miss you so much darling,
but
didn't want to see you in any more pain. We know you love us and
hope you
understand that we let you sleep because we love you so.
Please be waiting for us at Rainbow Bridge. Love you always
baby, and don't
get upset because we cry - it's only because we can't stroke you
any more!

Jagr, we were my life. I miss you more than words can express. I know we will meet again at Rainbow Bridge. Until that day comes, know how much I love and miss you. You will always be my baby.

Jake, aka Jakey, aka My Gentle Giant, 12/11/01
Jakey, we miss you with all our hearts, you're always close to us. I felt like dying myself the day I came home and found you on the floor. I pray to God I did the right thing by taking you to the vet to have your suffering ended and I also pray I didn't cause you any needless suffering through my selfishness to keep you with me-always hoping that you would be better the next day, please forgive me if you suffered needlessly, I couldn't accept your time was so close. You were always so gentle and loving, over 100 lbs., taller than me and I don't think you'd hurt a fly unless it was a threat to me. I hope the time goes quickly for you at the Bridge my love because I will be there and looking for my gentle giant to throw my arms around. Then you'll be able to gently take my hand again and lay down for belly rubs into eternity. Knowing you Jakey, you have an Angel trained to do it now until I or Poppy get there for you. I love you so much my baby and still miss you with all my heart. Until we meet again you keep that Angel busy and please don't tease the cats too much, they might not realize you'd never hurt them, and Jake, Nikki came to be with you on May 15th,'04 so please take him under your wing and make him feel at home, I'm sure you've already met up with Mikey and Buster, even though you didn't know them well down here. Praying you're all happy and romping in that lush green grass. All Our Love, Mommy and Poppy
Jake, 02/19/94-05/25/04
Jake, we miss you Big Guy and will never forget
you.
I hope you're swimming and running at the Rainbow Bridge!
We'll be together
again, but until then, remember that we love you.

Jake was a very special, loving dog. He was very intelligent and made his family very happy. He was my companaion, and when I was home I was never alone, he was always with me. He protected his family. He is greatly missed, and can never be replaced in our hearts.
Nancye Marshall
Jake, 11/29/91-05/17/04
Often considered my brother, but more of the excellent companion. The smartest and most intellectual animal I'll ever come in contact with. He was the love of my momma's life as well as my dads. Nothing will ever take the place of JAKE (NEWSOME). I love ya boy!!!
David Richardson
Jake, 07/31/90-04/22/04
Oh Jakie ... how we miss you.
Even though we knew you were getting older, we just weren't
ready to lose
you.
It seems like you were with us forever and oh how we wish that
could have
been the way.
You were very unique with an amazing personality ... more human
than dog.
The house seems empty without your smiling face waiting for us
at the window.
Sophie is lonely and looks for you.
Abby searches when she visits too.
You are missed so much Jaker and will never be forgotten.
We have so many memories of you that we cherish.
At least Hunter is up there to spend your days with.
Please tell him we miss him so much too. Say hello to Pusser ...
but be
nice!
We know we'll meet again some day.
You are loved tons and tons!
Love you Woofie, forever and forever, ... mom, dad, Kerrilee, Darren, Julia, and Olivia .... xoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
Jakey Boy was the best, friendly, happy, lovey, good little guy in the whole wide world. He loved everyone and felt everyone was his friend (big dogs, little dogs, little kids, etc.). He brought so much joy and love into our lives as our friend, buddy, companion, etc. Jake was always of high sprits. He left us today for heaven with his other little friends, i.e., Rusty, Dude, Bear, and he is no longer in discomfort or frustration from not being able to live his life as he had for almost thirteen years with us, i.e., the long walks, the kisses, the squirrel hunting, the boating, playing, etc.. He was our baby in every sense of the word, always there for us and us for him. We loved him so much, and he knew it, just as we knew he loved us. He will be so missed, words cannot express the void that will be in our lives without him. He will be coming home and then when we leave this world, going with each of us.
Butch and Mary Anne Braley
We will always love and remember Jake. We miss him terribly, but hope he is no longer ill.
Linda and Raymond Hall
In memory of our baby, Jake. Not a day goes by that I don't ask why. I miss you terribly and mourn for the dog that you would have grown up to be. We love you Jake and look forward to the day that we see you again.
Love, Mom
Jakey, I miss you.
Nancy Graves
My adored dog was a big dog in a small package. He was brave and loyal and funny and smart. He sat on the deathbeds of both my parents, and helped them as they died. He was a comedian who loved to play games, and would bravely defend the house and his people. He was always there for me, and I miss him more than words can say.
Elizabeth McChesney
In memory to the most special compion and best friend I have ever had. They say you only have one very special pet and Jake, my friend, you were it. Thank you for 11 wonderful years and for loving me. I will always love you, Lucy.
Jake was a grumpy cat but he was also a loving cat. We had him for 13 years and he was our friend. We miss him deeply.
Ray and Lynsey Celebucki
For my beloved Rottie, Jake. Who taught me to love and live life to the fullest. He not only touched my heart and soul, he became it. I will face the days until we are together again with a sadness in my heart that nothing will heal. But one day, I pray, we will be together again. I love you for Eternity, Jake.....your mommy & daddy, Jimmy & Brianna....
Jake was the last of our babies-he was born here in our home and was faithful and loving to the end
Debbie and Jon Doerr
To our Best Boy in the World.

Jake We Love You and Miss You, We hope Your pain is gone now
Rev Howard J Linder
Jake was my friend for twelve & a half years. He had a tumor attached to his lung. With the help of a wonderful Dr. he was with me for 4 months after the knowledge of this horrible disease. I felt it was time to let you go to a better place. It was so hard to let you go but I couldn't take seeing you like that. Your quality of life was not so great. SO I did what I thought was best for you. To let you go with dignity. I miss you so much it hurts, but I know you are in a better place playing with Buddy and all other animals pain free. You have gone on ahead and are waiting for me. Till we meet again, I love you Jake and miss you. I can't wait to kiss & hold you again. Love you forever.
Dot xxxooooxx
Jake was the best dog. I had to have him put to sleep because of a heart failure and he filled up with water. He could no longer walk on his own. I think of him everyday and cry when I think of him. He had such a great personality. He was a smiler and a talker. If I scolded him for something he would talk back just like a child. Our whole family mourned his passing. I cried all the way to the vet and cried while I was there and am still crying. I got a new puppy for Christmas who has filled most of my heart but Jake will always be there.
Glenda Neal
Save those pillows in heaven for us
Cathy and Gayle
I will miss my precious boy. I know you are still looking at your mommy, as you have done for the past 13-1/2 years. I'm still here, still loving you, my precious boy.
Mari Warnick
Jake was a special dog...he was a happy dog and he loved life. He'll live forever in my heart.
Deb Gallo
Jake was a stray when he came into lives.
He had been hit by a car and the local vets said his right back leg would have to amputated. Thanks to the local humane society and many caring individuals a fund was established to allow him to go to Columbus University where they were able to save his leg by inserting a rod. He never slowed after his surgery. His energy, kindness to his family and strangers was well known in the neighborhood. he died suddenly for no apparent reason. He is truly missed by his family and we look forward to seeing him again at the bridge
Roger and Brenda Duff
Jake - We will love you forever and ever. You were the best companion we could ever have wished for. It hurts so much that we have lost you. Please be happy and out of pain in heaven. We are so sorry we couldn't be there when you died. I guess you waited until we were out on purpose? Please know we will never forget you. Love always Jake (aka Jacob Brown/Baby Boy/My Puppy/My Friend) X
Sandy
I miss you so very much. There is an empty place in my heart that I am beginning to fill with all the beautiful memories of you Jake. You will be forever in my heart. I love you boy.
Shannon Harbour
Our dog Jake was hit by a car right in front of
me on
January 17th, 2004. After 5 days in the ICU, we opted to
discontinue treatment
and one of the truest hearts, the purest spirits went off to the
Rainbow
Bridge at 8:30am on Thursday the 22nd of January. Jake was a
very old soul
in a young dog's body - self assured, content just to be with
us, giving
gentle kisses, and waiting patiently for us people to grasp what
he was
trying to tell us, for he was surely trying to communicate with
us! Joyous
and happy, he had the greatest smile at Dog Beach or at the
park, especially
running towards us when we called him. There is a huge hole in
our house,
and we will love him and miss him for the rest of our lives.
Thanks for
allowing me to share.
Carol
Jake came to us when he was four weeks old. He stole my heart the moment I looked at him. WE had him for eleven and a half years. He was a special one. My heart feels like it has been torn out from my chest. We miss him so much. I just wish I could hold and kiss him again. But someday we will meet at the bridge. Till then he will always be in our hearts. WE love you Jake. Run, play have fun and wait for us.
Dot & Laurie
Gone but never forgotten. I will carry you in my heart until I die.
Linda
Jake was my best friend and loving companion for
more
than 14 years.
His loss is deeply felt by all who knew him.
Everyone loved Jake.
He had a large group of friends.
Debbie Inguagiato
Jake was a wonderful friend. He was always there to greet me no matter what. I loved him with all my heart, and I feel like someone has ripped my heart out. I miss him so much. This is so intense. LOVE YOU JAKE.
Dorothy Gracia
Jakie, I miss you still.
I know that you aren't in pain anymore.
I know that you found Tasha & Boo and you aren't alone.
Love you, Mom
Jake was a sweet, loving friend. He was for 11 years. He loved to play and guard the house. I miss him terribly. My tears won't stop and I guess I don't want them to. I hope rainbow bridge is true. I like to believe it is.
Dot Garcia
Jake will be sadly missed, but fondly remembered
by his
loving family.
He was a small dog with a big heart!
Sally Sandine
Jake was the most accepting of my three dogs. He loved all people and animals. He never growled at a living thing. He was so beautiful, with soft golden fur. His pretty face will always be in my memory. He had a wonderful life from the day he was born, always loved and cared for. He was lucky because not all animals are treated so kindly, Even though he lived to be only almost six, he only knew kindness from people. As a result, he was a boy who only showed love to all living things. Three weeks ago he was bouncing around the back yard, barking and chasing a ball. But, cancer came along and ended his life all too soon. I will always love him. I know his sweet little soul and heart are still with me. Jake, I adore and love you. I am so sorry you had to die so soon. Love, Mama
To our blind and furry fuzzball...
We miss you.
Bill & Mary
Jake was the top cat of the pride. He died from what I have come to know as diabetes, but couldn't help him because I was not aware then. He passed over with his best friend Hershey at his side. A week later Hershey lay down for the last time. He was healthy enough, but decided that Jake was not coming back and he didn't want to be here without him. We laid the two friends side by side under a flowering Jacaranda tree where they are free to play on gods bed and run around as much as they like. We miss them, and are awed at the great love shared by these two beings. Now if humans could only learn to love that well.....
Terry Molina
Our Jake will forever be in our hearts and will always be loved.

Jake Elvis Spina, 07/18/92-05/06/04
Jake came into my life in September 1992 and left too soon in May of 2004. The years in between were simply the best of my life! There are not enough words or feelings to describe what this "special boy" meant to me. He touched my life and others in so many ways. I am a "richer" person for the experience of him and I thank God for bringing this wonderful dog into my life. I am so lucky to have walked this earth with Jake and look forward to being with him again at Rainbow's Bridge. I love you sweet boy and miss you so much. To be continued.....
Debbie Spina and Janine Klein
My Darling Dog,
I miss you Jakie, I didn't know how much you filled my life until you were gone, I wish you were still here with, I miss you most of a morning for my wake up cuddle. I waited my whole life for my own dog and you were everything I could have wished for and more. You were the most loving, loyal dog and I always felt safe and loved when you where here. The house is just too empty without you.
I will love you for ever Jakie, I hope you are out of pain and playing again wherever you are

My children, they come in different colors and
sounds,
yet all having the unconditional desire to love and to please
me. Their
antics, personality , flips of the hair, refusing to listen or
look at
you when you're talking to them and deliberately turning away
..what wonderful
characters..if only we as humans could learn more from our dogs
and cats,,
to be more like them..to learn to love unconditionally.like
JAke, MAggie,
and SAmmy..JAMASA
I love you and miss you so much
Denise Ketchum
Jamie: You are still a very important part of my life...your spirit is alive in my heart and mind. You are loved very much. For such a little cat, you made such a giant impact on people's life. I love you and miss you very much. Thank you for sharing your life with me. Love, Krista
Earth Bound Angel
Occasionally, we are graced with the presence
Of an earth bound angel.
They are unable to stay with us for long,
But while they do,
They bring unprecedented joy
And happiness to all they touch.
While they are here, we bask in their goodness
And marvel at their contribution to the world.
When they leave, we are left with the devastation
That comes with losing such a wonderful being,
But we must remember, the earth bound angels
Are not ours to keep.
They are ours to enjoy, learn from and behold
Until they return home.
. ~Author Unknown~
It was a great honor and pleasure that Doug and I were allowed
to share
our lives with our beloved German Shepherds. When Helmut had to
leave this
earth we had Jamie to help us through our loss. Jamie had to
leave us yesterday.
I can not express in words how very much she touched our hearts.
She gave
us so much love and joy; she was simply a delight to be around.
Our lives
were enriched by our beloved and devoted friends; they will
forever remain
in our hearts.
Linda and Doug Spencer
Jamie-boo, mommie loves you always have and always will love you. Thank you so much for almost fourteen years of incredible love and cuteness, for being my constant companion, for your unique personality and combination of meow and purr, and being my beautiful, silly, sweet baby boy.
Cynthia Rasemas
Janet you and I came through so much together like the time you went missing for 7 days and you came crawling back to me in the early hours with a badly broken leg; the Vet could not believe you had survived - we fixed it. I am so sad that you have gone from my life, but your memory will always remain. You were the cheekiest and naughtiest of my cats. Rest in Peace my little pet and have fun playing with all your "brothers & sisters" who have already gone to Rainbow Bridge.
Diana Gokalp
You were so devoted to our family.
You will forever be missed.

Thank you, Jas, for EVERYTHING....but especially for your gentleness, kindness, and humility. I love you, Girl!

Dear Jasmine,
I miss all the silly things you used
to do.
I hope you are now at peace - you suffered so much towards the
end and I am so sorry that you were in pain.
I know that you are in
a better place, where you will always be young and free.
I was blessed
to have 16 years with such a special creature that brought me
smiles and
joy.
I will always hold you close to my heart.
MaryAnn & AJ
When I first saw you you were so little. Then your Great Dane personality came out. I miss you still so much my heart hurts. You are in my heart forever.
Rebecca
Jasmine, You were the light of our life, even in times of darkness, sometimes we talked through you, other times to you, but you were always apart of our family. You will never be forgotten. We all love you, forever.
Helen, Brad, Nancy Mello, Tiava Lee
Jasmine, you were my baby girl and I miss you so. You and I had a special bond and when you passed I felt like my heart had been ripped out. I remember how spunky and tough you were. You were just a little Min-Pin but you showed those German Shepards who was boss! Toward the end your eyes were blind and filled with blood, the arthritis made your limbs hurt, and you just wanted to stay under the bed and be by yourself. I would put you in bed with me at night to cuddle and you would lick my face until you fell asleep. You loved me till the end and I loved you. I'd give anything right now to hold you and kiss your little face. I still talk to you everyday. I hope you can hear me. Have fun in Heaven. It's been so long since you have been able to run..make up for lost time little girl. I will see you again some day. Mama
Our sweet Jasmine lived with me for 16 years. She was the child I never had, the kindness I had to come home to, the innocence no one would believe existed on this earth. She was soft, caring, spunky, loving, kind, special, very smart, and loved to learn new tricks. Her dad met her 6 years before her unfortunate death (due to cancer). He made a HUGE difference in her life. For that I will ALWAYAS love him as I loved Jasmine. We were, and still are, a family. I cry often when I miss her. Though I laugh when I think of times on our boat, or simple shenanigans she thought up. She was the world to us...can't wait to see her down the road. She was the Best! She could prance, she could smile, she could nudge, she could growl, she could heard, she could make a mess of the house....but whatever she did, she was always happy with us...as we were happy with her. I wonder if I will ever forget her....I hope not. She is my baby. We grew up together....and for that, I will ALWAYS be thankful! :.)

Jasmine Thornton-Miller, 05/04/85-05/15/04
Jasmine was my baby, my friend, my confidante.........I picked her out of a litter from the SPCA- and fell in love with her right away. She was beautiful- I was 24yrs old at the time and now I am 43 in 2004- I can't hardly remember when she wasn't with me. What I remember most is how she was always there for me- people would come and go, especially during those fast paced years in my life, but she was a constant for me and I will cherish the memory of her always.............I love you Jazz and I'll see you someday on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge- Daddy says you will always be his Jazzy Jeff.........

years ago, he was the light of their life. He went to work with
them every
morning and lit up the office, everyone their just loved and
adored Jason.
Sadly, he passed on 1-26-4 leaving behind his mom and dad who
miss him
more than anything but they should be proud of themselves for
caring for
him while he was sick, multiple trips per day to the vet for
treatments
and just comforting him in his past couple years of illness.
They are truly
remarkable pet parents.

My Jasper...how I miss you. You came into my life Christmas morning 1988 and filled everyday with love and devotion till the day I said good bye to you.. I miss you so very much and look for you when it thunders or when I sat in my chair and knitted.. how you always got off the couch and sat with me.. I love you so much my Jasper.. I will be running as fast as I can to get to you when I get to the Rainbow bridge.. I hope you are happy and getting all the "squeeks as fast as you can out of toys." There will never be another Jasper in my life to take your place.. I love you Jazzy.. my precious old puppy.

My beloved Jazzy..my heart is breaking..I will miss you so very much..You were my dear little friend..May you be happy and healthy now.. no more problems..I loved you so very much
Jane Miller
Jasper, my dear sweet buddy-girl. I can't imagine life without you since I was so blessed to have you in my life these past 19 years. I will always remember the first night I brought you home - small enough to fit cozily into my two hands - and the last day we were together - our family in the room with you, with my two hands cupped around your sweet, soft face. Thank you for being the best of the best and I will love you forever, my puss-puss.
Amy Ollendorf
I'm so lost without you, the years go by, but I'm still grieving for you, I love and miss you so much it hurts.
Pauline Grant
Jasper was the best dog in the entire world. He was more than our dog, he was a member of our family. I miss everything about him from his expression in his eyes, to the way he could read my mind, to the way he greeted me everytime I walked through the door. My life was golden for the nine years that I had him and although I am going through a lot of pain and sorrow right now, I wouldn't have traded the nine years for anything. Jasper was taken from us suddenly and too soon, but I know I will see him again. My life is so much better for having known him. You were my muffin and my kitty and I love you. You were my dog and I was your person. Jasper, I love you more than life itself and I miss you more than I ever thought was possible.
Your person, Susie
Our dearest Jasper,
We have loved you since the day we found you at the SPCA and you
crawled
in Mommy's lap and fell asleep. You have been a much loved
member of our
family for over 13 years and we miss you terribly. Stark still
fills your
bowl every night so you will have something to eat in heaven. We
talk to
you every day to see how you are adjusting to your new life and
according
to Stark, you are having a great time. We love you with all our
hearts.
Mommy, Daddy and Bubba
May you rest in peace and comfort, our Gentle
Giant.
Dear and sweet companion who will be missed by your human
friends and golden
retriever brother and sister as well!

Gloria Santamaria
Jax you gave me so much joy and I abandoned you when you needed me the most and I will never forgive myself for this. They said you were sick and slipped away that's all I know because they wouldn't let me see you. I thought giving you up was for the best, but I see now it didn't help either one of us - you were alone and I was alone. I hope you are happy at Rainbow Bridge. I never stopped caring about you I will have you in my heart always.

We all miss you Jayce. You meant so much to our family. I wish you were still here with me. I am waiting for you to give me a hug and kiss when I get home from work. Shianne misses playing tug-of-war with you. She keeps looking for you & I keep waiting for you to cuddle with me on the couch. You will always be in my heart & I will never forget you. I love you & miss you! I will see you again. Please don't forget me! I LOVE YOU!!

My heart is breaking! I miss my baby girl so much!

Jazz, 04/15/04-05/28/04
I had waited oh so long to get a baby like you Jazz, I felt like it was destiney that I found your first mommy. I was so excited when I got your first pictures. Then came the day that I was gonna bring you home I felt like a child waiting to open my presents on Christmas morning, When I first held you it was love instantly, I stood there holding you and rocking you till you fell asleep in my hands. You were so cute barely any feathers yet but I knew those would come in time. I dont really know what happend to make you go away from me I really wish I knew, I hope you know how much I really loved you and how much I really wanted you. Our last night together will always be treasured and kept close to my heart. I love my sweet Jazz I will see agian at the bridge. With all my love Mommy
Melissa
Jazz loved to be petted, and regularly insisted on it. When she tried to wag her invisible tail, her entire body shook. Jazz loved to hunt birds, rabbits, squirrels and possum. Her latest interest was terrapins. She had a full life; raising 6 pups, going camping, yards to play in, dogs to play with, couches to sleep on. We loved her and will miss her a lot.
Janet Phelps
Jazz was a great buddy. Such a chow hound!! I miss him horribly, we'd been through so much together. I know he's now in a place where he's no longer hurting. It was the hardest decision I've ever had to make.
Jan Erickson
Farewell dear Jazzy...everyone who knew you loves you deeply. You will forever be in our hearts. Avon Valley Show Stables just won't be the same without you for you brought a joy that will never be matched. Rest in peace beautiful girl and we'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Kara Dion
J.B. was a perfect pet. He had a great personality - he loved everyone and everyone loved him. He gave a lot of love and was a great companion.
Brenda McFarland
JC was a loving and loyal pet. He would comfort you will a head butt when you were down or upset and he would sleep with you in bed all day if you were sick. He will be missed by many. Love you JC!
Jennifer
My beautiful girl just passed away at 11:25 a.m. today. According to her vet, she had pancreatitis. She seemed fine just over a week ago. Then on Monday she was hospitalized. It all happened so quickly, that I can't believe it. She was such a sweetheart! I was her mommy from the time she was 4 1/2 weeks old, and I am so very sad right now!

JD we all loved you very much, after all these years we say goodbye just for now with tears in our eyes and pain in our hearts. Your memory will live on in each one of us. Your journey to kitty Heaven will join you to God's light.
Thank you for the joy you have given us.

JD,
Thank you for giving us so much love and happiness in your life.
We wish we could have made your passing easier and I'm sorry I
was not
there to be with you in your last day. I regret not spending
enough time
with you. Thank you for your kisses.
We love you and miss you so much...
Debbie, Fides, Jay and Fely Navera
Dear J.D., thank-you for six most wonderful years. I am so sorry that we were unable to save your life and I know that you weren't ready to go, but the pain that you suffered could only be stopped by letting you go to sleep. Sweet dreams forever my J.D. puppy. I LOVE YOU! You will live on forever in my heart and through the eyes of your babes Damien and J.D. Junior. Thank-you for being such a good boy all of your life and proving to many people in doubt that rottweilers are truly extremely loving dogs. I miss you J.D. and I promise that one day we will be together again. Love mommy xoxoxooooooooooo you love hugs!!!!

We will always love you Jedda. You were the best companion a family could ask for. Always there for us, giving and loving us unconditionally. We will miss you my lovely friend.
Bill and Vicci Noel
Jeeves was never physically well, and a feral monkey toward humans, but he loved and was loved by the adult cats in the house. They took care of him, groomed him, and slept with their arms tightly wrapped around him. He will be missed!

Our hearts are broken since we lost you yesterday our sweet little bunny. Jeffey, you meant the world to us and brought so much to our lives and our home. You were never a pet, but an important member of our family. We will miss you so very much and will keep your memory and your stories alive for generations to come. Thank you for letting us be your family, We are blessed to have loved you and to be loved by you.
Ellen and Kurt
You were good parents to your children and good pets. I love you all. I'm missing a part of you in my life that nothing can replace. I remember Jeffrey jumping out of his house during the day, hiding in the closet. I remember Belle playing around in her wheel and having a great time trying to type on the computer keyboard, hitting the a letter and looking up at the screen to see what's there. I remember when Jeffrey and Peanut would let me babysit your babies when you wanted to get out. You had always trusted me all the time with their babies. I enjoyed your playfulness, curiousness, and the way they looked at you when you called your names. I remember Jeffrey climbing to get out from the water bottle and Belle or Lilly climbing on their wheel to get out. You were so funny when you tried to dig out through the glass. You enjoyed the sunflower seeds we gave you. Jeffrey enjoyed licking peanut butter off my fingers. You gnawed on the woodsticks and enjoyed them, you gnawed on the top of the tanks, the bars of the wheel, and toilet paper rolls. You enjoyed the toilet paper nest. You were the happiest gerbils I've ever known and I know you are watching over the baby gerbils and hamster. I love you all and I will remember all of you you sweet gerbies.

Jeffrey Johnny Opie, 05/05/92-05/20/04
Our firstborn male cat.(I was unable to
conceive.)
We thought of Jeffrey as our son, so full of love &
affection; was
ill and in pain, so,with love and our pain,was allowed to go to
his heavenly
home.
Rest in peace,our little brave boy, we will alway's love you,
love mommy & daddy.
Harry & Bonnie
Dear sweet Jella. When I first saw you a black, ball of fluff climbing up the cage. I knew I had to have you. you brought joy into our home and lots of laughter at your antics. you were my friend and my companion. And I loved the nights when you would snuggle with me in bed. I will love and miss you forever.
Rochelle
Our Jella was so sweet. He had several nicknames: Jelly-Boy, Jelly Belly, Moose, FatCat, Orange Marmalade, and others I can't think of right now. We got him as a tiny kitten about 5 weeks old. He and his sister, Sibble, were inseparable. They were never apart from the day we got them, except when they were fixed. He was very finiky--he only ate cat food, no people food, no kitty treats. Jella was a huge cat, weighing 14.2 pounds 2 days before he died. Since he was so young when we got him, he was like one of my kids. Both cats thought I was their momma. He was my son's cat. One thing that I remember and miss the most was the fact that he got really, really loving over the last 6 months of his short life. Whenever I sat down to my computer, he proceeded to plant himself across my outstretched arms and love on me. He would lay down and purr and purr and stick one leg in my throat while clinging to my arm with his front paws. He would sit outside the bathroom and wait for me every time. I could not go anywhere without him being under foot. His fur was so soft and a rich, vibrant, brownish-orange. He had a cute little pink nose and the outline of his eyes was pink. He had a bad tooth that I thought had cleared up, but it hadn't. He ended up getting a urinary tract blockage that would not clear up and stay cleared up. The last time, I finally took him to the vet, but it was too late. They tried to save him but it just was not to be. Deciding to let him go was the hardest thing I have had to do. We will miss him forever. I am so glad I got a picture of him with his sister a couple days before he got sick. We love you, Jella.

Jelly Bean, 12/16/93-05/30/04
Dear Jelly Bean: We loved you so much that we had to let you go so that you would not suffer anymore. You are in our hearts forever. Love, Mommy annd Daddy
Dear Jelly, I just wanted to tell you that I have never had such a special cat and never will again. You were more like a human. I loved the way you would touch my face with your paws, kiss me with your tongue on my lower lip and then try to pucker and kiss me, but instead, nibble on my lower lip. I will miss that and the way you would purr for hours without stopping. You had the most beautiful purr and those eyes were so full of love for me. You had the most beautiful way of talking and you knew when I needed to hear it. I always thought that if you could find a way to crawl inside me to get closer to me, you would. You never hurt anyone and loved everything. You especially loved mommy's cooking and for that I am thankful. I am just sorry that you had to leave me at this time, but we will be together again. No one will ever take your place, I want you to know that. You are a very brave cat and the fact that you were 15 years old but still acted like you were 6 months old is so special. You never let me down and were always there for me with a special look, purr or touch. The way you purred and kissed my face and my lip when we had to say goodbye is in my heart forever, just as you are. I will miss our bug rubs and our special times together and the way you would get me to go to bed if I was staying up too late. I want to thank you for the special mark you left on my eyelid so I would never forget you and to thank you for being my baby. You will always be momma's favorite. I love you so much and miss you so much, but I am happy that you are in heaven with Ronnie and no longer uncomfortable, I couldn't stand to see you not being yourself, with the love for life that I never saw in a cat before. I will see you when it is time. Until then, listen for me for I will be talking to you and I know that you are here with me. You're momma's favorite and I will love you always and forever Baby Bugs. Love always and forever, Momma Becky {{:)XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO :)}}
Jem, we love you.
You were our best friend, and we miss you very much.
Dharma lays in your spot all the time now.
Regina Stiffler and Dharma
A very special little girl who came to us as a stray and totally melted our hearts. She was one in a million and left us broken hearted. We will always love and remember our "little jemima"
June and Glenn Calder
Jenna gave us unyielding, unconditional love and
devotion
through her entire lifetime. No other species of living thing on
Earth,
including human beings, possesses the capacity to give so much,
demand
so little, and forgive so quickly. What a unique blessing this
is. I will
miss, you, deeply my baby girl, you will always be in my heart.
I look forward to find you, my happy puppy, at the rainbow
bridge.
Elizabeth
Jenna was a beautiful black and white cat, both inside and out. My husband chose her as his baby at the Humane Society and picked her because she was not the cutest kitten and he was afraid no one else would adopt her. As a kitten, she had big ears and was a bit disheveled. As Jenna grew she became more and more beautiful and eventually grew into those large ears. Jenna was a very loving cat and finally decided that I would be her person, not my husband. Jenna loved to be near people and was always in search of a lap. Although she preferred me, she would sit on my husband's lap and eventually my son's and daughter's lap when mine was not available. Anytime I would sit or lay down, Jenna would be on my lap or lying on my back. Jenna also loved food--people food. She would jump in my lap at dinner time and gradually ease her way to my plate. Any food left unattended was fair game for Jenna. She loved treats of ice cream and tuna, but rarely turned her nose up at any food offered to her. One of the most important things Jenna did for me was help me through the death of my first baby, Camillia. When Camillia passed on (06/07/00) Jenna was there to comfort me. No one else in the house was emotionally available to grieve with me. Jenna began sleeping with me at night and would allow me to hold her as I cried for my lost baby. She was wonderful to me and helped me through that difficult time! Jenna was a very special, sweet and loving cat. I know that she and her stepsister, Camillia, will be at Rainbow Bridge together, along with my very first kitty, Ms. Kitty, waiting to meet me. I love them all very much and look very forward to being with them again where there will be no more pain or sadness. I love you Jenna!

JENNI,
Mommie,
It has been 12 years since Mommie had to "let you go". I KNOW
in my heart you feel better now, and are romping with "Murphee",
over the Rainbow bridge.
We WILL see each other again..........next time it will be
forever.
I love you always Jenni-girl,
Mommie
I miss my little Sweetie.
I wish you were still here to sit on my shoulder.
Sandy
She was a beautiful black and white haired darling. Smart, adorable and eager to be petted. She had a beautiful toothy grin and a loud, happy bark!
Anne
Jenny, 09/09/91-05/01/04
Jenny, you were the baby I got to keep and I am
so glad
I found you at the shelter that day in February so long ago!!!
I hope you and Tuffy are having fun up there, and as Cori puts
it, that
God is tell you two to settle down.
Hollie Blue and Daddy and I miss you terribly but we know that
you are
finally feeling better.
We know you waited for us to come to the vet. I am so grateful
that I could
give you relief from the pain of not being able to breathe, say
my last
goodbye and hug you in my arms as you took your last breath, but
I still
wish I could have done more to help your failing heart.
Thank you for being my love when I needed you, for putting up
with the
kisses you didn't want, for being my (and Tuffy's) friend.
It's ok that you loved daddy more than me because you always
slept next
to me.
I miss that, so much that it's hard to sleep without you.
I can't wait to see you again.
Catherine Ehlinger
Could never ask for better.
We love you baby girl.
Caroline
The most loyal, and kind baby in the world.
I miss you.
Steven Chapman
Jeremy was our first dog. We got him when he was 2 years old, on his second birthday! We will never forget that day...we always thought that was fate. Jeremy was such a great companion to us over the years. It is hard to even begin to describe how important he was in our lives. We already miss him terribly, but we have so many wonderful memories. Jeremy, you know that you will always have such a special place in our hearts, and some day we'll meet again at the Rainbow Bridge!
Yvonne Restani & Trevor Hoyt
Baby Jerald,
Though we didn't know you long, you truly touched our lives. Your sweet and energetic personality was like a little ray of sunshine. You truly deserved better than the lot you were given. Please know that you were loved and always will be. We will miss you and cherish you always.
Leanne and Ian Huckaby
My beloved Jerry who missed his brother who
passed away
just 3 weeks ago, decided to join him. I hope and pray they are
both together
again, playing as they did in their youth and watch over me.
I love and miss them both with all my heart.
Cathy Miller
Though our time together was short, we have a lifetime of memories. We miss you, our little furry friend.
Fatima & Michael L. Catena
Jess the wonder dog - loved by everyone she came into contact with. Everyone wished their dog was as well behaved and as smart as you. Guard of the family for 14 years - protector of the children laying in front of their strollers to laying in the driveway while they shot baskets. You died in my arms this morning - I'll always remember you until I hold you once again.
Cam, Cull, Donna & Steve
Jessanan Chief, 03/12/95-06/01/04
Today we didnt say goodbye, we said until we meet again, my darling boy you will always be with us forever. You will always be in our hearts & our thoughts I'll see you on Rainbow bridge. Love Mum Dad Lily Harry Jessie & Molly (& that darn cat!)
Jesse, 01/17/90-06/10/04
Love you and miss you.
Still remember that day so long
ago when we stood before your litter wondering how we would ever
be able
to pick just one and you crawled in my lap and fell asleep. Rest
in peace...

Jesse, 01/20/95-05/22/04
Til we meet again Big Guy.
Elaine Bailey
Jesse was a good boy and loved very much by his mommy and daddy. He was also known as Mr. Poobers! We miss you Jesse. Love Mommy
Linda Parker
Jesse...our 690.00 free kitten. Who would have guessed that you'd come to be worth so much more? You were a fighter and a survivor from the very first - which makes it even harder to believe that something so insignificant as "cancer" should take you from us. Jesse - who was fixed at 5 months - but refused to ever acknowledge that fact and took care of his harem of house cats until the day he died. You were arrogant, proud and beautiful - as a cat should be, but in those moments when you wanted to be loved you could melt the hardest of hearts. We loved you Jesse - and hope that you have welcomed your "sister" Dixie onto the Rainbow bridge and will look out for her until we all meet again. You were the best Cat God ever made...
Ellee, Nigel and Erin Temple
(Words by Norah Jones)
For my Jesse:
"Spinning, laughing, dancing to her favorite song.
A little girl with nothing wrong, is all alone.
Eyes wide open, always hoping for the sun,
And she'll sing her song to anyone that comes along.
Fragile as a leaf in autumn, just fallin' to the ground,
without a sound.
Crooked little smile on her face,
tells a tale of grace that's all her own.
Spinning, laughing, dancing to her favorite song.
A little girl with nothing wrong,
and she's all alone."
I miss you my majestic, beautiful, graceful Jesse. My heart
hurts because
I couldn't fix yours. I'm so sorry you were so scared. I'm so
happy we
had that one last wonderful weekend in the woods. I only wish
for you that's
how you could have spent your life. I will always have a special
place
in my heart for you. You were so smart and beautiful. I'll
always love
you. Mama
PS: Heidi took your ball from the river and was waiting for you
with it
in her mouth, wasn't she?
Stephanie Beatty
With all his heart he loved and protected us. He stole our shoes, begged for food, ridded our yard of squirrels, and took up most of the bed. He is gone now, but forever in our hearts. Mama's boo-bear.....rest in peace. Thank you for spending your time on earth with us.
Terri, Lee, Jessica, David
Jesse Jackson (Moe), 05/20/88-06/03/04
Jesse was my mellow "man cat" - I was lucky enough to be there when he came into the world and lucky, yes, lucky, to be there when he crossed the rainbow bridge - i felt his soul pass thru me and knew he was on his way to see his mom - who was waiting on the other side of the bridge to hiss and bapp at him and make those mom noises only she could make - and together they would make the 2004 cat olympic team - so many curtains to shred - so many couches to bounce off of - she will chase him then bam - he will chase her back -then the both of them will sleep together in the bathtub. My Jesse lived 16 years and 2 weeks - his kidneys gave out all too soon - but he will be with me forever. I loved him and he loved me - unconditionaly - and that's how it's supposed to be. I miss him so much - he slept with me and I fell asleep each night to his purr. He was my boy and it's going to be a stretch of time until I sleep good again - BUT HEY - enough about how sad I am - He is in a happy place - over the bridge and experiencing cat nirvana !!!! Jesse - I love you more than words can tell
Deb
Jesse, we miss you desperately, and we thank you
for every
day you blessed our lives. You were the sweetest, smartest, most
loving
friend (says everyone who ever knew you). Rest easy, baby girl,
for we
know that you are now happy, healthy, safe and warm. You are
rolling in
a hill of squeaky toys and sleeping in the perfect sun spot. We
hope you
can look down from your comfy couch, see us, and watch the world
go by.
We know we will see you again some day. Until then, your spirit
lives on
with us.
Loads of love,
Mommy and Daddy
Jessi, 05/12/91-05/27/04
My best friend for 13 years, Jessi was an
incredible animal...
beautiful, independent, intelligent and, true to her mother's
Siberian
Husky heritage, an escape artist. From her travels, she knew
more people
in town than I did. This was a dog who loved to wander and if
she could
figure out a way to escape the confines of our home, she'd go.
Jessi was
certainly a handful, but I loved her for all of that and more.
She taught
me so much about myself and about life. I will always be
grateful for her
companionship.
God bless you, Jessi, and may you run forever free in the fields
of heaven.
We miss you!
Your friend,
Robin
A tough girl who survived the streets and taught
me about
forgiveness.
I didn't know her age, but I had 5 good years with her.
Laura Myers-Hilts
Jessi, you were so loved by Mandy, Grandpa, Nanna, Brad Ralph and me. We miss you sneaking in the house to steal food, we miss playing 'rabbit' and 'stone' with you and most importantly we miss your cuddles. You were such a good little dog and you were always there for me. I miss you more than you will ever know.
Shelley and Brad Moore
Kindest sweetest smallest girl my heart is broken so much pain bless you
Marie Harris
My wee Jessie was the love of my life, my soul mate, She taught me so much in the very brief time she was with me. I miss her every second of every day. She was the sweetest little girl and was there for me when I came home. She gave me a reason to be, to get up in the morning, to get dressed and take her to the park. I only hope that I read her eyes correctly that Wednesday. It was breaking my heart to see her struggle to walk, and my heart shattered when I had to let her go, I love you, my baby beautiful, always. Mum.
I grieve deeply for the loss of my best friend, my Jessie. I will cry a river for her and then some. I am broken into little pieces and feel I will never get over her not being with me. I can hear her all over the house, every turn I make I expect to see her sweet face looking at me. Mommy
She was my first dog and wonderful companion, even in my business which was at home. The clients loved her as much as I did. It broke my heart to receive the news, but I believe I will see her again some day.
Stephanie Janke
Jessie, you were taken from me way too soon. There is a very empty, lonely place in my life and in my heart. I wish I could have done more to keep you with me. I love you, I miss you so much.
Jere Lynne
Our best friend for the last 10 1/2 years has
passed away.
Her name is Jessie, she was a 72 pound American Pitbull Terrier.
She was
the most loveable, comical, caring dog we ever met and gave
everyone she
met hugs and kisses.
Jessie survived her mammary cancer last year, however lost the
battle with
thyroid carcinoma. She put up a tough fight even up to her last
breath.
She was a survivor and our little trooper.
Gone, but not forgotten.. JESSIE 09/21/93 - 02/25/04
Robbi and Terry
Jessie was our sweet baby girl. She went everywhere with us and was part of everything we did. Her gentleness and loving nature was beyond compare. She will hold the dearest place in our hearts forever. We miss her so.
Cindi & Bill H
Jessie
Sturz, 09/22/03

Jessie, my little guy, you were just beginning to grow up to become the best dog you could be. Your sudden death has created a black hole in my life. You taught me so much about patience, love, laughter and how important it is to take the time to play. I love you forever.
Jessy, 05/28/04
Jessy, we made the hardest decision of our lives
today
so that we could take away your pain and suffering caused by
your blindness
and stomach problems. Always know that we love you very much and
look forward
to the day that we can see you again.
You brought us both so much joy and pleasure. We will miss you
and you
will always be in our hearts. I hope that you find peace and
love wherever
you may be.
Lots of love
David and Mark
Jessy, Your mommy is still grieving your death as if it were yesterday. I miss you as if you were my own. You tried to stay; we saw you fight with all you had, but God wanted to take you to heaven to be with him. You are in a better place and you are well now. But always a part of our hearts and our thoughts. We will see you again "itty bitty". Love you, Jess.
Chris Pesce/ Maria Pesce
Jessy, our precious kitty. We love and miss you so much. You will always hold a special place in our hearts and we will never ever forget you. So long for now little pumpkin, we will see you again someday and will be able to hold you and kiss you again. We think of you everyday, Love, Dad & Mom.
Jeter, 01/20/03-04/24/04
Mommy's Jeter Boo, you brought so much happiness into my life. After I lost my dear Spunky, I didn't think I would ever smile again, but you made me smile and laugh. You could brighten up my life by walking into the room. All too suddenly, you are gone and my life is so empty. I'm so glad I had you for the short time I did, I just wish it could have been longer. I wake every morning hoping to feel you kissing me awake, then the realization sets in that you can't and the overwhelming hurt sets in again. I miss you so much Boo Boo. I'm so sorry that I couldn't protect you, I really did try. Mommy misses you so much it psyically hurts, but we will be together again Jeter Boo, I know we will. But till then, I will keep your precious, sweet memory alive and I will tell the whole world how special you were and how blessed I was to have you in my life. Thank you, Jeter Boo, for being a part of my life. I am so lucky that you chose me. Wait for me Baby, I will be there with you soon.

JJewel, I went to the humane society to find a companion for Smokey who was 13yrs old , You immediately caught my eye, with your playful attitude. You came home with me Sept 27,2003. You and Smokey hit it off. In dec I noticed you where not yourself I took you to Smokey's vet , Still in January your where no better I took you to a small animal clinic. And at there expense did some test and found out you had polycystic kidney disease. I was told there was no cure and by your blood test you should not be alive , but you were. You were fighting to stay with us. We fell in love with you and the way you would carry socks all over the house at night. and I the final days when you found strength to sit with us we knew it was your way of preparing us of your departure. WE love and Miss You! Love Mom & Dad And Smokey, He hasn't been the same since you left.
Sheryl
I helped you come into this world, and I watched you grow. I got to keep you for awhile, until you went to live with a special little boy. You lived for him each day of your life and served him well. We will always miss you!!

Jezebel was my first cat. I called her my special kitty. She loved water and the sun and because she did she acquired nicknames from me like Waterbel and Sunbel. She loved to walk around the house at night with her "baby", a silver ball I had got her as a toy. She would always comfort me by sleeping with me (sometimes under the covers) and wake me up early in the morning when it was time to eat, sometimes by sitting on me or purring so loud I could no longer sleep, or by licking my arm or face. I loved her so much and the pain is unbearable because I had to euthanize her yesterday after watching her lose 3 of her 13 pounds and lose her appetite. She had a liver disease and I tried everything I could to help her, but in the end, she wanted me to let her go and I had to. She was not really herself anymore and was so weak. The last night with me, I left her sleeping in the bathroom closet and invited her to come sleep on the bed with me if she wanted, knowing she was too weak. Ten minutes later, she was trying to jump up on the bed. I gently placed her on the bed, where we slept together and the next morning I spent time with her until her appointment. For the last time, she purred while I stroked her head and body. That morning I will never forget how empty everything seemed. Although I have another cat, Jezebel was special and quirky. Taking her to the vet yesterday and being with her when she died was the hardest thing I have ever done. I do feel guilt and pain that maybe I could have done something else, that maybe I should have noticed the weight loss sooner, that I could have saved her. But when she threw up the pills that were to try to help her, and did not want to eat tuna, her favorite treat, and could not hold up her head or sleep comfortably, I knew it was time to end her suffering and let her go. My only real comfort is my other cat and the fact that I know I will see her again someday. I just wish it hadn't happened this way and am angry at God for making this innocent, loving creature suffer. Maybe I will get past that, but I will never get past the love I felt for her, nor the joy I felt for 15 years while she was with me. I miss you, Jezebel, my loving sweetheart.

Jezebel was a feral cat who lived in a small colony under our porch. She was born the summer we first moved into our house and out of all of her littermates, she was the only one who stayed and lived, becoming the matriarch of her own little pack of kitties. Her parents left her too. She had two litters of her own before we were able to trap and spay her. She was a wonderful mother to all her kittens, and even though having the last litter almost killed her, she somehow made it through to take care of them and make sure they all lived. Jezzie was a beautiful black/brown/white tabby with an overcoat of orange and the most gorgeous green eyes. Out of all our ferals, she was the only one who would actually let us touch and pet her from time to time. We don't know what happened to her - she was just gone one day, but it is apparent she is gone for good. Jezzie, your babies miss you very much. Eric has been crying a lot, but Helen is mothering them all, and we love them too, so don't worry too much. We know you are in a far better place right now, and I know Sebastian and her babies, Violet, and FuzzyButt are so happy to have you with them. Look for all our babies over there, and sooner than you know it, we will join you too. You guys all wait for us, okay? Then there will be pets and loves for everyone. We miss you very very much Jezzie. Much love & kisses, your adopted mom and dad Bob Morgan & Anne Zimmerman
You were not my dog, you were my daughter. You are gone but will always be in my heart and memories. All my dogs are special. Pookie Pie, you were the first and so special. I miss you.
Love, Mommy
Dear Baby and Jezzie I miss both of you terribly. I can only take comfort in the fact that you are no longer in pain or suffering. I think of both of you every day, and I know your brother Duncan misses you as well. Grandma says hi and we both love you.
Forever in my thoughts and prayers, mommie
Jiffi, 05/28/04
Dear Jiffi,
Today we had to put you to sleep, putting you out of your misery
of the
past several weeks.
You were so very sick!
We will forever be grateful for the 17 1/2 yrs. of wonderful
memories.
You were our special little buddy and we'll truly miss you.
Jim and Jackie Leistikow
Jiggs you were our best friend and we will never forget you. You are resting under the shade of the maple in the back yard...your home.
Tammy, Kelly, Lena & Alyssa
I love you buddy
Joann
His love for me cost him his life; I had a trip to make out of town; sneaking out of house and following me, he was hit by a car...he got 1.3 miles out of the 155 miles.
Tom & Bev Whiting
I never thought I could miss an animal so much.
I don't think anyone could ever place her.
Nancy
Your life was short with us, but we loved you so much. You were so precious and cute, I will miss you so very much and so will your brother Joey. Avery feels really really bad, he is soooo sorry, it was an accident and we are all hurting right now. Please forgive us..

Jim, 03/01/03-06/04/04
I miss you so much seeing you swim in your little tiny bowl. I will never know another soul like yours. You were everything to me. When Mark died you were all I had left. I will miss the stories I read you. You will always be close to my heart, I love you Jim!
Sally Worthington
Jim Beam was an extraordinary, energetic and loving puppy. He had the biggest ears that would just flop around when he ran. My favorite memory of him is playing with him in the field. Just to see that beautiful dog run free without a care was amazing. He will always be in our hearts and soul.
Samantha
In loving memory of my little Buda, who gave me peace every day of his life.

Jimmy, 10/02/93-05/23/04
He died on the way to the vets office for an
emergency
visit this morning.
I am in such pain and grief.
I am guilt ridden, wondering if I had done everything I could.
He is sorely missed.
Jeffrey K Collins
Jimmy was a very, very special horse, my best friend. I love him and miss him so much.
Kate Bird
Jimpy was a unique cat, but then again, every cat is a special creature. She was small and round with fur as soft as velvet. She was a mighty warrior with the heart of an angel. No one stood in her way unless they were willing to pet her and love her. She was a stray for the first 2/3 years of her life and in the beginning we were only looking after her for a friend. When said friend phoned and said that we could keep Jimpy it was one of the happiest moments of my childhood. Jimpy was always there for me whenever I needed comfort. I'd stroke her head and snuggle into her warm, soft fur and she'd purr like a lawnmower, letting me know that the world wasn't such a horrible place. I learned two things from Jimpy:
- Ham sandwiches are always for sharing. - Newspapers are for sitting on, not reading.
Thank you for being there my beautiful, wonderful girl. Your life was snatched from you so horribly, but now you are at peace. I hope there's ham at Rainbow Bridge.
Katy McGilvray
I am a 15 year old boy Jingles was my childhood companion. She was my best friend and my protector. We fell in love from the moment we laid eyes on each other. I will never forget her ever. I loved her so much . I will never have another friend like her . I Love you Jingles and ill never forget u or have another friend like you will all my love and heart Joey.
Jinx, you will be sadly missed. You were my best friend and no one will ever take your place. I type this with tear filled eyes, 4 days after your passing. I loved the way you would always curl up next to my heart and lay with your paws wrapped around my arms and your little head draped across my arm, and when we held and carried you the way you wrapped your little paws around our neck's and laid you head on our shoulder just like a little baby. I wish science had a cure for the leukemia you suffered through, and you could have gotten better and stayed with us a while. Even though you were only with us for a little over a year, you brought more joy to this household than anyone could fathom. I'm sorry I didn't get to tell you how much you meant to me before they laid you to rest, but I do hope that you know that you were loved, and know you will live on forever in our hearts. I Love and miss you Jinx and hope that there is a heaven so I can hold and see you again someday.
James and Sandi
You were the sweetest, most loving little girl

a dog mom could ever hope to have.
I know you are with your daddy & magnum just the other side

Jinxie
My special kitty, sent to me;
You filled my heart with joy and glee.
You¡¯re silken fur so black and sleek;
You gave me love every day of the week.
I loved to watch you romp and play;
Chasing dragonflys by summers¡¯ day.
You were my best mouser by far;
No need for a mousetrap, you were the star.
You could talk to me with the flick of your tail;
I knew your moods, this never did fail.
For you I always had a special treat;
Roast beef, tuna, and ground beef, your favorite meat.
You would come greet me when I called your name;
Without you, things will not be the same.
My heart will break when you go;
But God wants you, this I know.
Someday we¡¯ll meet at The Rainbow Bridge;
And together again, we¡¯ll cross that ridge.
Till we meet again, my special friend, I will grieve for the years you did not get. I¡¯ll always love you, my baby girl, my Jinxie.
Debora Sisco
Jitsu, you will always be my sweet baby. I'll always think of you and remember how you were so special and loving. I'll never forget all the kisses and belly rubs you looked forward to and demanded so frequently. I only too eagerly obliged. I don't think I can ever get over losing you so quickly. Mommy loves you so much. Wait for me.
J.J. I only had you for three years. But I loved you and I felt loved by you. You were the most playful animated life I have ever seen. You are so missed. My heart feels like it will break, but I will see you again at Rainbow Bridge. Linda
Thank you for being the child we never had. U were a joy, a companion & the love of our lives.

J-Man, 05/18/04
We will deeply miss our "fat and strippy" cat,
J-man.
He was a kitten found under a bush and became a loved and
cherished member
of our family.
We will miss your Meow's, being stalked, crazy running, and that
I'm sleeping
look you were great at giving.
Life here will not be the same, but you will be with your
brother Sammy
now, and you can resume the cat olympic's. You will live on in
our hearts
and fondest memories of a fat and strippy cat.

Loving companion, gentle friend go swiftly into the night and pass us on silent velvet wings of love. Sweet soul we loved you so much. Mom and Dad and Erik

Mrs Hilda Morgan
Thank you Joe for many beautiful years. You are such a funny dog. You still make me laugh!!!!!!!!!
Sarah Kemp
No words are adequate to express the extreme heartache and overwhelming agony I feel over the loss of my sweet boy. He was an angel on earth and is now one in heaven. He was, and will always remain, the love of my life. I wish him peace and hope there is an everlasting supply of tennis balls for him to play with. People tell me that he was lucky to have had such a loving and caring mom as me but they are wrong. I was the lucky one. I love you, Joe. Mommy misses you more than I could ever imagine. You will always be with me, my love.

Joey, 10/99-09/13/00
Joey, you were the best boy anyone could ask for. You had the best nature and the sweetest disposition. My boys loved you beyond measure. We miss you so much. You and Spunky were such good friends. Unfortunately, he has come to join you. I know you are happy to be together, but we miss you both so much. Take care of each other and my little Jeter Boo, too. We will all be together again one day. Thank you Jo Jo for loving us as much as you did.
Sarah
Joey was born in my home, he was born handicapped with no use of his back legs, I wasn't sure what was wrong with him so when he was about 6 weeks old I brought him to the University of Minnesota ,that is when they told me he was missing 2 vertebrae and had a lot of nerve damage. He was also incontinent which I had discovered on my own. As Joey grew he took to walking on his front legs so he could get around pretty good, I would keep a diaper on him so he didn't have to be locked up all the time. I cant describe the love I have for my little boy, I'm not sure if it was because he was so dependent on me or just the way he was, he didn't know he was handicapped and wanted to act just like the other cats. I brought Joey with me as often as I could and he had his own carseat that he loved to ride in. When he was about 10 months old he started getting urinary tract infections. About every 6 weeks he would have to get catheterized which he did not like very much, eventually he had to have his penis removed just to keep him unclogged. About 3 months after the operation he started getting very bad infections which he just couldn't fight off and the vet suggested putting him to sleep because there was nothing more they could do for him but I could not do that. He stayed on antibiotics for about 6 more weeks and then stopped eating, I knew he was getting weaker and weaker but didn't seem to be in pain so I hoped and prayed he would get better but I knew he wouldn't. The last night my little boy was alive I had to babysit my grandson so I couldn't sleep with Joey like I usually did so in the morning when I checked on him he looked up at me and meowed and I picked him up and held him in my arms and talked to him and he looked into my eyes so trusting and I knew he was going so I told him it was ok to go ahead and go and he listened to me and never took his eyes off of me as he left. I miss him so, and love him so, and I'm sure he knows that, but the pain is almost unbearable, I know he is at the Rainbow bridge now running and playing on all four feet now and I hold on to that. I will never forget my little boy and he will always be in my heart, I love you my little Joey

Cristi
Joey, we thought you'd be with us forever. We know you were an old puss and you unexpected death has left us and your sister extremely sad. I hope you're with Freckles now. We love and miss you.
Ilana and Greg Newby
Joey - we love and miss you so much...
The Rosario Family
Joeybaby, the Queen, the most exquisite cat in the universe. From "deaf kitten" (all an act) to the Lady of the Manor. You were the prissy-est, most beautiful cat. Silent all the time, never crying for food, thought you were the world's best climber. Put in my life to be given to Tash - to teach Tash about life, love and true understanding. So young but it was your time and the year that we had you was just the best. Please look after Cody and Bingo and don't harass Mogwai. I know you're a true Tiger now. Your brother and sisters miss you, though Sushi thinks she's the queen now. You will always be the queen, forever and ever. We miss you so much Joey but thank you for showing us the signs that you are watching over us. It means so much. I hope that where you are, there are fields and fields of catnip. We miss your tractor purr. We love you Joey.
Robyn and Tash
Beloved boy and brother, you are gone but never
forgotten.
I think of you and miss you every day.
You're the best thing that ever happened to me.
Love, Mommy and Katya
Joey loved everyone and everyone loved Joey.
When he finally grew his hair back he was so proud and like to
strut.
We chose him at the pound, he weighed 6 lbs. and had lost almost
all his
hair from malnutrition.
We found out later he had a serious heart defect. The vet told
us from
the start he wouldn't make it very long, but with lots of meds
and lots
of love he got to be our little man for 2 1/2 years before his
little heart
gave out.
He was a joy always happy and loving. He was my husband's pride
and joy.
He went to Alaska with us on a motorcycle 2 years before his
death and
he was the talk of all the camp when we stopped for the night.
For such a short time here on earth he made a big dent in our
hearts and
I'm hoping her can run over the Rainbow Bridge without becoming
short of
breath and can play like all the other dog angels.
Lanae Ice
Joey was the best dog you could ever ask for. We made the decision to euthanize her and hope it was the best thing we could do so she would not suffer. I miss her so much; there is a huge hole in my heart. Joey, you were so well loved. You gave so much. I only hope we gave you the death you would have wanted. You will never ever be forgotten.
Lori
Missed more than I can say, time passes, but does
not
heal.
I still love him.
Alison Woolley
Our joy, our heart, our life. My child, my core,
my angel.
Empty is the space that once reflected your presence, your
greatness, love.
Forever loved for eternity is John, my best friend, who was more
of a person
than many people living the world.
We love you so much.
Kerry K. Sullivan
Cougar was the first cat I ever owned. He was my furball and could be cranky at times. but I loved him very much. I always knew I was a dog person, but Cougar taught me how much cats offer and that I am a cat person too.
Bobbie
Today we set you free from your very old age. You have been such a devoted kitty and bonded so close to your Mum. She misses you terribly as do I and we will always hold you in our hearts. You looked so peaceful and serene after going to your final sleep. Your color came back and that soft smile of yours told us you are at peace and now happy to run and frolic with Sparkle, Shine, Patches and Goofy. What a herd of cats you will make ! ! Bless you our deal Johnny and wait for us when it is our turn. We love you forever....Your parents...Cindy & Ed
To my Best Furry Friend! You took a piece of me with you stinky! I love you eternally and nothing will ever replace you!
Amy Cramer
Johnson, who am I going to share my dinners with now? Your mother always made sure to bring you something from my plate whenever we went out to eat. You were a good dog and a faithful friend and are sadly missed. Please take care of Aimee when she gets there. (Hopefully not too soon) Aimee likes table scraps too.
Mary Lou Mattioli
Joshie, when you left us a year ago, it broke our hearts. You were our first dog, our first doggie love, the sweetest little boy, with such a gentle spirit. What a cutie. King of his castle, master of the backyard. Your place on the couch will always be empty. We haven't forgotten you, little boy, we talk of you so often. We remember your cute ways, like "pet my tummy," and how you loved to ride. We still love you and always will. Mollie came to be with you this week and so now you two are together again. Katie misses both of you and it's so hard because she doesn't understand. When you died, she looked for you for weeks, sniffing your place on the couch. Now she's looking everywhere for Mollie, not knowing that Mollie is gone. As much as our hearts are breaking, it was worth it to have had you and Mollie as our babies, and Teens and Teddy and Duesey, too. Katie and Emily send their love. We love you and miss you, little boy, and we always will. You're always in our hearts.

My darling little Jolie, it's been one year since you left me, and I miss you more every day. I think about you every day. You were the best pet I've ever had. You were everything anyone could want in a pet. I can't let you go. I have two other cats now, but there'll never be another you. Sometimes I even call them by your name. I was priveleged to be your mom for your eight years on this Earth. You were a constant source of comfort and joy to me, and you gave me so much more than I ever gave you. I can only hope I made you as happy as you made me. I will always love you, my little shining star.
Katherine Hutchison
Maggie, Mommy & Daddy miss you, baby. Even Harly seems to know you are not coming back. Be strong and look for Taaka, he will play with you. I hope you know we looked for you. I will think of you everyday until I see you again. My cup of Joe!
Russ & Tara Griffis & Maggie
Today, Friday, April 9th, 2004 at 5:40 p.m., in my loving presence, the light of Jonah's spirit was released from his body. He has crossed the rainbow...
Jonah and I celebrated his 12th and last birthday together. He was born April 7, 1992. Jonah was a fat, tumbly puppy nearly all white with a half-brown face and a big black dot at the base of his tail. His temperament proved to be sweet, loving, spunky and bright. But true to his breed--when his mettle was tested, he was fearsome and tenacious--a dog to be to be reckoned with! Jonah lived each day with unbridled enthusiasm and endless curiosity (curiosity hath no peer like a fox terrier!). He HAD to be "where the action is"--he wanted to see out windows, climb on tables and counters, jump on every bed, stick his head into bags, poke things with his paw and push things with his nose. His life motto: "CHECK IT OUT!" He was my constant shadow--no matter where I was or what I was doing, he was there too.
Jonah had a light in his eye and joie d' vivre that could not be ignored. His tail was electric...wagging so fast it was only a blur. He was single-minded in focus and could not be distracted from a "mission." He loved to jump, to run, to climb, to chase and to fetch. He'd squeak his toys 'til you HAD to play with him or risk losing your mind. He was a warm bump in the bed at night (but DON'T touch him with your foot or you'd likely lose it!). On hot summer days he'd take a dip in his pool, "swimming" in circles and snorkeling--blowing bubbles in the water with his nose.
Jonah was loved by all who met him...friends and strangers alike. And in turn, he loved everybody he came in contact with. He never minded going to the vet; he got scratches, pats and treats as he wiggled and grinned for the assistants. He loved to go see "the girls" at The Doghouse for grooming where he would be greeted with a chorus of "Jonaaaaaaahhh!!!" whereupon he'd dissolve in ridiculous gyrations of joy. Jonah was a happy little fella. He loved his Teddy Grahams. He loved his "momma." He even had his "15 minutes of fame" when he was chosen out of thousands to be an "AOL Pet of the Day" with his picture posted on the AOL Pets Page for 24 hours.
Jonah was a very funny dog. He made me laugh every day even in the saddest moments. Sometimes all it would take was a long, piercing gaze with his laser eyes and pricked ears...and I'd just have to laugh. He made people laugh everywhere he went as he grinned, squirmed and performed his tricks for any audience.
But finally, age caught up to him. Arthritis affected Jonah's hind legs and he slowly lost control of them. Still he persevered, going anywhere he wanted to go no matter how hard he struggled to get there. That's the terrier heart; they never quit. I knew I'd have to take the batteries out of my "energizer bunny" because he'd never give up trying. And so...this grievous moment has come; my beloved dog is now on a new journey.
My heartfelt thanks go the veterinarians and assistants who took care of Jonah over his 12 happy, wiggly years. And many thanks to all the girls at The Doghouse who took a scruffy looking mongrel in and gave me back a very handsome fella who actually looked like a fox terrier instead of a wooly sheep. And to all my family and friends who embraced Jonah and put up with his boundless enthusiasm--my love and thanks.
Jonah was a gift and a joy held not nearly long enough. He lived his life with pluck and fire, humor and spirit, boldness and heart. Jonah had a good life and may he now have a good journey to where he is unfettered of collar, leash and fence...free of unwilling legs to once again fly like the wind through Elysian fields filled with Teddy Grahams, chasing squeaky velveteen rabbits.
Jonah...my beloved wiggly boy...Godspeed on your new journey.

Jones, we both loved you so much, you were a very special friend to us both I have been blessed that you were with us for so long, we miss you so much there is a great hole in our lives now, little indi is missing you so much, he has never been alone before, and is wandering round looking for you. the physical pain of your passing will stay with me forever, you were my best friend and were always there when I needed you, I miss you so much till we meet again my love. you will always be in our hearts. mark. Jones, how we all miss you. I miss you talking to me and just being there, letting me chuckle you under the chin, and stroke you, listening to you purr as I prattled on about how my day had been. This has been a horrible day, and you're not here for me to tell you about how I feel. I wish you were here now, with all of us; Indi is lost without you and doesn't understand why you're not around to play, or just sit with him on the bed. Mark is broken hearted; you have been with him for so long, since he found you and tucked you inside his jacket to keep you warm; you have been that close to his heart since, and I know that you will be always. Thank you for being my special friend, the lovely little lady, who mewed in approval of my new red boots, and who was so very beautiful. You gave me lots of love and laughs too, the way you used to 'talk', and the way, when you'd had enough attention to suit you, you would strut away; but you always were there whenever we came home or to see you, waiting for cuddles. I don't know what else to say, words aren't enough to convey the huge sense of loss we all feel. I have been so lucky to have a friend like you, and I will miss you every day. Thank you for just being you and sharing your love with us. Good night little lady. Julie x
Sleep well sweet Jordie, watch over your family and give them strength to cope with your passing. We didn't always see eye to eye but we made our peace the other night when we sat on the stairs and chatted silently. I can still hear you walking about outside yowling, keeping everyone awake, I still remember you bloodying Mick's nose when he shoved it under the car to see you, it bled for ages and he didn't pull that stunt again. Now, Freya has no one to bark at when she goes running outside, she still looks in all your hide aways but your no longer there. Now, I no longer see the cat that was the double of my beloved Lucky who passed on in 2001, you were both so alike. Don't be upsetting him too much, he'll probably have back up in his pal Rocky who went missing November 1995. Sleep now Jordie, watch over your family....... Also remembering Corra, a precious gift who passed by on route to the rainbow bridge 2000. Liz, John and the furkids.
Liz Woods
He was the best friend I ever had. He passed away so young...That was the worse night ever, I gave back to God the wonderful gift he blessed my life with for 6 years. I will NEVER forget him and I know we will be best buddies again...
Kim
This was the greatest dog any owner could want. He was always by my side in good times and in bad. He never ceased to put a smile on my face when I would see him looking at me with those warm brown eyes. I am thankful that he lived for 14 great years. I will miss him so much
Kerry Thomas
We love you and miss you Jordan; you were are best friend. We are so lonely without you. You were taken to the Rainbow Bridge way too young. We miss your friendship, your company and your wagging tail. Run free baby dog . . .
Dannie and Tammy
Our hearts ache for the loss of our darling girl. She brought so much to our lives, and asked for so little. We are comforted to know that we will be reunited one day at the Rainbow Bridge
Ray and Sharon Young
Josie, Mom, Dad and Terri love and miss you so much.
Josie was our 6 year old Siberian Husky. We adopted her from a Rescue Shelter 5 years ago, she had been found alone in her owners apartment after he was taken to jail (for what we don't know). Like most Siberians, she quickly adapted to her new family, including her new brother Winter (German Shepard). She lived a happy and healthy life and soon her family grew again to include a stray Siberian Husky whom I found in our back yard. But sadly before her life was lived to its fullest, she was taken from us. The Vet said it was a Blood Clot, and that she went quickly and painlessly. But that doesn't make it any easier. And so I send this Tribute to our Baby Girl in hopes it finds her safe, sound, warm and happy. I want you to know Josie, you will ALWAYS be loved and FOREVER be remembered. P.S. Winter and Bear still look for you to play with them.
Krystal, Damian, Winter & Bear
She was and always will be my best friend. She saw me through so much and was always there for me, even when I was too busy for her. I miss her so, my best friend.
Rochelle Cole
We will meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. You will always be forever in our family.
All our love

Jr. Was my friend, my buddy, and my boy. He was with me when I went thru breast cancer over 6 years ago. He gave me comfort, attention, and lots of love 24/7. He gave me a reason to get up every day. Thank god for blessing me with him for all of the 10 1/2 years we were together. We formed a very special bond together and went thru alot of tuff times together, and we were always there for each other, no matter what. I do believe in the Rainbow Bridge, and I know he is there watching and waiting for me. I know god will take good care of him until I get there. One day we will meet at the rainbow bridge and cross over together, never to be parted again. I will hold you in my heart until I can hold you in my arms. You will always be with me, I'll see you at the rainbow bridge. Love your mom

Mommy and Daddy miss you so much. You were my best friend and my

seems souless.
No matter where I go or what I do, Jude I will always love you,
and you
will always be in my heart. I look forward to the day I can hug
you, scratch
the back of you heard, and kiss your paws again. Until that day,
I will
do my best to make it.
Kisses

Goldngrove Jude, you will be sadly missed. You will be in our hearts forever. Hang with our other goldens that are at rainbow bridge. Tucker is there with everyone else.
Debby Schaser
Our Jude was the best of the best. He was a beautiful golden retriever with the sweetest personality that everyone couldn't resist.
I remember the day our breeder handed this furball to me and the look on his face just made my heart melt. Jude grew into the most lovable creature I ever knew and no matter what problems were going on at the time, Jude was always there for comfort and support.
I'll always remember my pooch as the fluffiest most playful dog. I'm just so glad he's in a better place now rather than suffering. He was my little man and I'll never forget him.
I love you Jude always and forever!!

Julie, 06/11/04
my little girl julie, it has only been a few hours and already i feel the loss. i find myself looking for you, thinking i hear you coming down the hallway. i wish i could start today over, why did this have to happen? you brought so much joy into my days, i do not know if things will ever be the same without you. i hurt so much for you julie.. i blame myself. if only i had down this or that. i did not know you had gotten out, you were so little, it made it easy for you to slip by me sometimes. outside doing my yard work, when i heard the car, i even breathed a sigh of relief, i just knew you were inside safe and the horrible seen i was going to see would not involve you. i had to tell myself again and again, that it was you laying in the street. i do not think you felt much. you only lived a few seconds after the accident. at least i was able to hold you in my arms when you took your last breaths. i can't believe you are gone from my life. i hope some day we will meet again, i love you julie. i really hope there is something or someplace better for you now. please forgive me for letting this happen. now you know why i would get upset with you at times, i know the world is dangerous, i was hoping you would not find out.
Bonnie Sweat
Adopted in Germany in 1997, spent 17 wonderful years with us until her little body finally gave out. She will forever remain a part of us. We miss you, Julie...

Julius life brought so much happiness into mine and the surrounding neighborhood. His purple collar and bell always announced his arrival. He would come bounding across the yard to see me and my neighbor's daughter. He was sooo very intelligent and came to see me the morning of his death. He turned an looked at me with his teal green eyes and came to eat his lovingly prepared plate of warm food. Had I spent just a few more mins with him he wouldn't have been hit by a car. He is one of the many ferals that I care for but he wasn't really feral at all. I have 10 inside cats...wish I'd added just one more...I really miss him.

How can this void ever heal when we have lost the world's sweetest soul?
Harriet Korchak
Our sweet little girl, Jumper, was by our side every day and night for 14 years. Her devotion, unyielding affection, and relentless companionship is so sorely missed. The pain is so deep. the house is so empty. But, we find comfort that she is no longer in pain, and is now able to run in the sun with other little puppy dogs. She waved her little tiny paw, and wagged her little tail, even when she barely had the strength to do so. She was my baby, and will live on in my heart, soul , and mind forever and ever and ever. I don't know how I will go on without her.
Susan, Eric, Jaime and Jordan
My heart is aching for my sister who lost her
special
needs kitty today. He had been born with no pelvis or use of his
legs and
all vets suggested "putting him down". This was never even
considered
as an option, my sister cared for him like any other special
needs child,
with love and kindness, so many trips to specialists, even the U
of Minnesota
to try and save him. Poor Joey just couldn't fight anymore and
is now at
the Rainbow Bridge waiting for my sister with all our pals that
are already
there. He was a very special little guy and I loved him very
much.

June bug, We miss you and love you. Love your family
Even though we had you for a very short while, please know that we loved you and miss you and you are still in our hearts. We're so sorry you followed the pack of strays and failed to make it back home. We looked and called for you, only to receive a call saying you were found crushed against a guard rail and though the woman said she saw the car aim at you, she failed to get the tag. She got your tag though and was able to locate us through the vet. What a sorrowful day.
I'm sorry you left so soon.
Lawson Family
Too soon we lost our beloved friend, but we know that you are in the best of care now and will see you once again.
Denise Hackworth
Junior was one of our rescue pups. He gave much love not only to us but all he met and was loved by his partners Bruiser and Annie along with Mic, Tory and Sassy who now grieve along with us on his passing. He was to have surgery on his knee but passed away to a reaction from the medication given. Our hearts and souls are filled with pain as we still cry but we know that you have found peace as you crossed over the Rainbow Bridge to join you mother Slinda. Be at peace our beloved Junior and again we shall, when our time comes, once again see, be with and play with you. Our love will never die. We thank God that he gave you to us to share in the love that you gave. So now sleep well our little Junior Bug
Cody & Cee Griffith
To my Junior, you brought me so much joy and love. I'm so sorry about the pain and suffering you went through. All we went for was a check up but it ended up being the end of your life. I'm so so sorry. You were still so young and have so much to live for but your life was ended so quickly. I didn't even get to say bye to you but I want you to know that I will always remember the good memories you brought me and I will always keep you in my heart.

In Memory of Jupiter
Our little angel cat "Jupiter" died on Sunday April 25, from kidney failure. He was only 7 years old and is survived by his brother cat Rigby who misses him very much. Our family is heartbroken and Jupiter was a sweet kitty who always took turns staying with each member of the family at night. He liked to sleep in shoeboxes and baskets and loved olive pate and spaghetti sauce. Please pray for his eternal happiness with St. Francis and pray for Rigby and our family to get through this difficult time. We did not except this and it progressed so quickly there wasn't time to say goodbye.
"Wherever you are my little angel, Jupiter, we love you and you will always be in our hearts. We will take care of your brother and pray that you are in happiness and heaven where you can eat all the sauce you want and have deli meat to your little hearts desire. I can't believe you were taken from us so soon, but may you be in a wonderful place for eternity and enjoy your new life playing with all the other little animals who have moved on."
Thank you Sincerely, Lorraine DePietro The DePietro Family & Rigby
Jup I miss you so much, even though I only knew you since December you have touched my heart. Rescuing you was the best thing I ever did, I'm sorry your previous owners didn't take care of you. We tried so hard to help you and you know that. You were such a sweet loving rat the first minute you came into our home. I hope that your cheeks will be rubbed all the time now. Your energy is free now. Love you, Jup! Jup!

You came into our lives fourteen years ago. You were and will always be our chosen child. We miss you more than words can express. Your leaving us has left a big empty hole in our hearts, that can never be replaced. We were together for fourteen years but that was not near enough. We miss you Jury! We love you with all our heart and soul. Mom and Dad
I found Jessie when he was just a little three week old kitten. He had been abandoned by his mother, and I nursed him back to health. He was so playful and got along with everyone. Then one night I was letting my dog inside and he got out. I looked and called for him everywhere and finally, I just gave up. The next morning I got a call around 10:00 and I found out he had been hit by a car sometime earlier that morning. Right now as I type this article I think about the two short years I had with him and I wish I could here him purr one more time, but I guess memories will have to do that now.
XOXOXOXOXOX,
mommy
Justin, 05/19/04
Justin...godspeed and now you will be whole again and there won't be anymore pain. I will miss you and all of will meet someday at the bridge. Thunder and Mindi are waiting for you.

Justine was a tiny dog with a great, big, loving heart. She was very, very brave. She was a supervisory dog, who followed me around to make sure I was doing things properly. She was interested in everything and liked to meet new people -- whom she flirted with shamelessly. She would smile, and run around in circles. She inspected every inch of the yard on a regular basis, and enjoyed sniffing the flowers in the summer. She loved to have her tummy rubbed and to be scratched under her little ears. She had delicate, graceful little paws, which she would nudge me with. She would sit beside me in my chair and roll over on her back to be petted. Then she would burrow her little head in the cushions until she had a punk hairdo. She loved to eat and would have eaten until she exploded if I let her. I didn't. I loved her so much, and she loved me. She died in my arms.
