Year 2007 Tributes

For pet names beginning with "P".

Floyd was one of the most gentle sweet dogs I have ever met.

Angela Hughes

Our sweet Pablo whom we loved and who loved us so much, has passed away this morning. My tears still flow as we miss him dearly.. he was as sweet as a cat can bee.. so affectionate, intelligent, playful, loyal.... he will alwyas be in our hearts..

we love you Pablo, always
Joy & Vinya and all who cared for you

Pablo lived for 17 years and I had to put him down today when he showed the first signs of pain after being diagnosed with oral cancer.
I'm glad to share my tribute to his memory with other pet lovers.
He was a happy cat who spent his last months (even until yesterday) feasting on fancy cat food and watching birds in the backyard.
Pets bring so much joy and comfort and they are so easy to love.
I will miss giving love to my pet and the love he shared with me.

Jennifer Dee

Pache was diagnosed as a diabetic this weekend but after 48hrs of IV's and insulin, his heart gave out---Pache was rescued by my husband and I 10 years ago--and he has been the best dispositioned dog we have ever had. Everyone in the neighborhood knew him and loved him...he loved all the cats and dogs always played well with them--he even caught a squirrel once--didnt kill it --just played w/it...I know he will be very popular at the bridge---
We love and miss you, Pach have fun til we see you again!!!

Angela

Pachu was our friend and we will never forget him. He will always be our Guru of Greatness.

I love you paddy, I miss you so much.
I hope you are free and happy and no longer in pain.

Corey Henderson

He should have been called Joy.

His attitude and demeanor defined Joy and brought joy into every aspect of life.
Joy was the morning walk at forced march pace.
Joy was a game of ball - table ball or stairball.
Joy was a home littered with soft balls.
Joy was the PON smile of greeting.
Joy was constant companionship - at work and at home.
Joy was the absolute devotion of a very intelligent furry best friend.
Joy was the honor of being his best friend.
His name should have been Joy.

We called him Paddy-Too

Patricia Gallagher

I caught you when you were born. I held you as you returned to the Creator. There is a huge hole in my soul, though you will stay with me forever, my dear friend.

May you find as much joy in your next life, as you have given in this one.

Christle Sheppard

Your time with us was too short. You turned into quite a magnificent dog!

Leslie, Aaron, Alex, Michael

This morning on my way to work this beautiful dog ran out in front of my car.
I did not even see her until after I hit her.
Several people stopped including a rescue worker and said there was no way I could have stopped in time.
Page died instantly.
Her owner came and I was so devastated for her and her family.
We cried together.
I am in so much pain for all of this and I am so sorry!
I will never forget Page.
Page, I pray you are with God in a beautiful place and know that I am sorry and will never forget you..... Sue

Page was a wonderful dog and will be greatly missed. Love, Brad, Jen, Morgan and her other sisters (Kassidy, Maytee, Melba) and Toast

My sweet, kind, rolly-polly, dainty little lady with a heart that exuded only love, with eyes that expressed want for love and love for me, with outstretched paw and looking up at me with your beautiful huge round blue eyes as you lay on my tummy in the chair just gazing into my eyes with such compassion as I had for you.
You are always with me, though your body so quickly became ill and after 2 hospitals and the poor prognosis, I had to make the hardest decision of my entire life - to let your body rest and your spirit free.
I love you, Pagode, forever - and
anxiously await the day we meet again and our spirits are entwined forever.
I love you, dear heart, my little one.
You ARE love - even in your absence, I feel your love . . .

Julie

Paintball - You were a sweet cat, but you could be a rascal, too.
You liked to bully the other cats.
You also loved to sit on a lap & knead or pick a toy out of the basket & play with it.
You were also a great "batter" when we would toss a toy to you.
We still miss your cute little black & white face & the way you would inhale your food & try to inhale the other kitty's food, too.
Callie just got to Rainbow Bridge, so maybe you can show her around.
Love, Mom & Dad

For Paizlee, who was Hari's best friend...

Gail and Joe Cochran

The sweetest, most loving dog ever - you had special needs but you were our special angel, come to care for us when we needed you most. Daddy will be joining you soon.

Jim and Lisa Barth

In loving memory of our beloved companion, Pal, who has touched so many lives with his love.

We will miss you so much,
Dean and Linda

From the moment I first saw you, until the last of our time together I knew that I was meant to take care of you and you were meant to take care of me.

You gave us unconditional love every day. You were my pillow, my foot warmer, my face cleaner, our protector, and my companion.

I gave you all the love I had to give, the run of the house, banana to get the remote control back from you, lots and lots of biscuits, and a loving family that misses you.

We miss you Pal and want you to have fun while you're waiting for us because one day we'll all be together again.

Anthony Sincaglia

I love you and miss you both so much. I am so sorry I was not there for you at the end. Please forgive me and allow me to love you once again when we meet. Always stay with grandpa and take care of each other ok!
Love you and hope to see you all when I get there.

Love You Always,

Daddy

My best friend and constant companion for eleven years.
Your passing has left a huge hole in our lives.
We love you and miss you very much.
God gave you to me when I needed you to help me get thru the loss of my beloved horse, and I had to give you back. I am grateful you are no longer in pain. I will never forget you.
Please wait for me, you and Toby are the first ones I want to see when I cross over.
Goodbye, old friend.
I know you didn't want to leave me, but you couldn't fight anymore.
I love you forever.

Susan Hebelka

Pallino has left behind all suffering. He went peacefully this morning at 8:07 a.m., Central time.

He was born on 26 June 1996 in Perugia, Umbria, Italy and died on 21 May 2007 in Valparaiso, Florida. He was a loyal and loving companion and will be deeply missed.

Euthanasia was administered to relieve pain and suffering from terminal intestinal lymphoma, aggravated by congestive heart failure.

He enjoyed a last weekend with his people by his side 24/7, and he was able to smell the ocean, catch one last lizard, and roll in the sun. His last meal was grilled steak, which he was able to keep down for over ten hours, so he actually was able to digest most of it.

All in all he was a happy kitty, and had on balance a better life than most cats and many human beings. He also had self-awareness and awareness of others, understood his name, and understood that the last few trips to the vet were for his good, and he did not fight them like he did when he was younger.

It was my privilege to have him as my companion for over ten years. I will not forget him.

Brian Azevedo

The way you stood up on that vets table.
You didn't know the end was near you, stood up there so brave and even though you were in so much pain, you thrust your paw out once more. I miss you so much and you truly were defiant.

Love you so much and hope one day we'll meet again

David & Murphy

Paloma, 17, crossed the Rainbow Bridge after bravely battling both renal failure and lymphoma in her final months.
She will be dearly missed by her mom,
stepmom, and her feline brother and sister, Houdini and Tabitha.
May her sweet soul rest in peace!

Carolyn Bibb

Lulu, it's been two years since you were gone.
I don't know if that was short or long...
Though I'm back to normal life and having a good time with other friends of yours, I still miss you so much.
How I wish if you cuddle around my neck and sleep on my chest again. Losing you totally changed my life, I'm no longer after career but trying to achieve better work-life balance, so that I can take good care of your friends.
Thanks for teaching me a lot of important things.
I believe you are enjoying your favorite foods and running around happily with Pakat who has recently joined there.
Please visit me in my dream from time to time.
Love you always.

Lisa Takayama

Panama was my first dog that was all mine.
I rescued him when he was almost 4 years old.
We spent a little over 7 wonderful years together.
I cannot imagine a more loyal friend.
He was one of the most loved dogs I have ever known.
The night before he left us we had a special party for him.
All of his friends (both human and dog) came to visit and say goodbye.
I will miss him so very much as will his little poodle brother Cornbread.

Gina Vertullo

My dearest

Bubby you where my shadow, always at my side and you gave so much love, my sweet boy I love you forever and always.
my love,my heart
mom

To my dearest "Panchita"

Its only been 36 hours since you left us completely unexpectedly.
If only you had been ill, I could have said goodbye or prepared myself, but you left on your time.

I miss you so much in the morning and in the evening and all the time in between.
I even miss your "Amazon scream " (Amazon owners know about this!!)What I wouldn't give to hear that scream just one more time...

I hope you knew how loved and cherished you were for all those years.
You changed my heart for the est.
I try not to cry in front of your beloved mate, partly not to scare or upset him and partly because when I let myself cry, the tears never seem to stop.

Oh, my precious "Wanchy Girl", you passed on exactly 9 years to the day exactly from when I "rescued" you (or is that when you "rescued" me??) from those those horrible former owners.

The love, compassion dedication and devotion you taught me will never be forgotten.
I am sorry that my "human" child will never get to know my "avian" child, but I will tell her all about you!!

When I was ill several years ago, you were a big part of making me fight to get better.
Thank you for that!!
I know many people tell me "she was just a bird", but we both know better, don't we?
You were one of my closest friends.

I knew losing you would be hard, but it is 1000X harder than I ever imagined.
I was blessed with your sweet companionship every day.

Pleae wait at the Rainbow Bridge for me so that we can make that final journey together.

Love,
Your Mama Eileen

Even though we had you only a year, you were a part of our hearts.

Soc

Panda....we will miss you so much...a precious member of our family for almost 16 years...always at the door to greet...always eager to get in the car for next transfer to a new home...always excited for that next camping trip...thrilled when there was a new baby after so long...which meant a high chair to sit underneath once more...always a devoted companion...always our friend....we'll see you again one day girl...

Charity and Robert Barnard

You are our prettiest cat ever!
You loved adventure every day of your life and we miss sharing in these antics with you!
Many hugs and kisses until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge!

Angie and Mark Wagner

If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.

You'll never know how much you are missed. We know we'll see you again one day.

Kristina Damianick & Dave Montgomery

my darling panda you filled up my life with love your faithfullness your sweetness i will never forget. you were a part of me that now has died. your mummy.xxxx

My beloved, I will not be whole again until we meet on Rainbow Bridge.

Rachel Fayans

To Panda Bear:

Long faithful years
Deserve not tears,
But rather, quiet gratitude for grace.
All that you had to give, you gave.
In my heart you'll always have your place.

Too soon, too soon
Time came for us to say goodbye.
You left to me a memory
So gentle it could shatter with a sigh.

Lael R. Neill

Our faithful companion who was brave and trusting died yesterday. We have wonderful memories of you:
like
eating a pound of butter foil and all
jumping out of the canoe in a swamp
peeing in the pool
riding on the chairlift at Holiday Valley
jetskiing
singing Jingle Bells
and riding shotgun(move!)
and your famous waking people up snorf technique which was enjoyed by many
We love you
and will always keep you in our hearts. You had more names and the softest ears than any dog!

Janet , Ed Megan & Charlotte Lewis

Our beautiful sweet, loving friend died in her favourite and special place in the backyard. She was a great and loyal companion and we will miss her so much - she will be in our hearts and memory forever!

Susan & Dick Pope

you are now with your sister patches and sitting on your human grandmas lap.
Your pillow will always stay in the sun on the bed where you loved to sleep.
Our precious little girl will be loved and remembered forever in our hearts.
We love you
Brian,angie,eric and dave.

To my loving Pandora,
I miss you like crazy and will remember all the special times we had.
I will remember the kisses and licks and the way you purred "I love you".

I miss coming home from work at night and you not being there or when I wake in the morning and how you would sit in your cage looking at me and purr when I asked you if you were hungry.

I will always love you and there will never be another in the world like you...

R.I.P.
PANDORA A.K.A. "MAMA"

Jamie Ockenhouse

Beautiful Pandora.
Thank you for bringing such joy to our lives.

I'm sorry you had to leave so quickly, but so glad I was there.
And I'm happy that you didn't have to suffer for too long.

Jezzy and I will be OK.
We miss your presence here.
We're also thinking about you in your new "big" spirit, no longer confined by you beautiful little body.

We love you,

Mommy and Jezabell

Pandora was my first pet and cat.
She was one year old when I adopted her from a shelter in 1995.
From the moment we met, I knew she was my soul mate kitty, my familiar.
She was diagnosed with cancer only two weeks before she went to the bridge.
She died in my arms, and my God, how her death has hit me hard.
This cat was so much more to me than just a cat.
She took a piece of me when she left.
And I know I kept a piece of her here with me.
Rest in peace, Pandora.
And thank you for having blessed my earthly life with yours.
Until we meet again...

Francisca Cazares

I miss you my dear friend even more as the one year anniversary of your death draws near. For more than six years you survived diabetes and endured your shots and testing with more and more love and tenderness to me. I miss you rubbing your nose on the bedroom door to make a squeaking noise to wake me up at night when you were not feeling right. It was your way of telling me when your sugar levels would go too high or too low. As you grew old you became more and more loving, I miss you tremendously.

Suzanne Tardif

pandy was a very special pig her markings made her look just like a panda bear thats how she got her name, she gave birth to 6 cuties on april 20th 2007, i kept the runt, he looks like his mommy, i cry when i see him it reminds me of my poor pandy, pandy was pg when she died, she gave birth to 2 still born and she died right befor her appt with the family vet, she will be missed dearly, i have 9 grandkids that spoiled her rotten,

Karen Foale

A tribute to my Pandy that went over The Rainbow

bridge on 1-30-07.
She was like a member of our family, always wanting your full attention and always
waiting for our love and approval. Full of energy and a bundle of love.
I will and do miss her with all my heart.
See you in heaven Pandy, I hope you are waiting for me.
Love you always.

Melanie Fraser

Pansy was a beautiful & very large orange tabby. She loved her people, her sister & her dog fiercely. Unfortunately she disliked everyone else equally as fiercely. We loved her & will miss her greatly.

Mary & Mimi

MY DEAR SWEET PANSY, YOU BROUGHT HAPPINES TO ALL OF US AND NOW YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE NEAR PAPI WHO ALWAYS LOVE YOU SO MUCH - I MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH, MY LIFE IS DIFFERENT WITHOUT YOU AROUND ME IN THE GARDEN, SMELLING THE FLOWERS YOU LOVE SO MUCH - REST IN PEACE MY BEAUTIFUL ANGEL AND THANK YOU FOR EVER AND EVER FOR THE GOOD YEARS.

Isa Reid

Panther was a one-of-a-kind cat, and the bond between us was very unique.
He was my best friend, confidante, and shadow for 17 years.
He had an aura about him that made people take notice.
Even people who didn't care for cats would comment that there was something special about him.
We'll miss so many things about him:
his chatter, pouncing on the laser pointer dot and trying to scoop it up and eat it, perching himself on your leg like it was a throne, his comforting purr, his mean left hook reserved for the dog, stalking the food on your plate as if it were prey, his beautiful gold-flecked eyes in the sunlight, following me around from room to room because he always had to be near me, feeling his long, black, silky smooth fur, his two white whiskers that stood out among the black ones, seeing him put the younger cats in their place, grooming Sisco who was his protoge...there are oh-so-many more things.
Mostly we'll simply miss his presence in our lives.
We are truly blessed to have been owned by him.

Betsy & Steve Warren

To the most noble being to have ever spent time in my life.
There are not words to describe your loving heart and unending patience.
You were the best friend, best alpha, best cuddle, softest coat, and most devoted canine I've ever known.
Thank you for every moment of unconditional love you've shown me.
Rosie, Hill, Nicki, daddy, and I will miss you every hour.
I'm proud to say that you never spent a night outside of my heart, my house, my family, or my love.
You were a gentleman every day of your life.

Ginger Bevan

My little Papa...you were the best friend and most loyal kitty a person could ever wish for.
Although your life was short, the amount of love you brought into my life is endless.
I will think of you everyday and miss you forever.
I can't wait to hear you purr again, until then my mom will take care of you now!!! I love you buddy!

Dan Hall

Papa passed away today after a struggle with urinary and bladder obstruction issues. He had been hospitalized twice in the past month. Despite his many health problems, he had a wonderful personality and will be deeply missed by his people and by his three feline brothers and sisters. We love you, buddy.

Lisa & Neil

Papi was the best dog ever. He was so joyful, playful and happy and was brought so much joy to our lives.
Papi got sick suddenly and we found out on 6.4.07 that he was born with small under developed kidneys and had to be euthanized today.
We love him and we miss him terribly but we know he's not suffering any more and is with God looking down on us.
Papi we Love you very, very much and we wish you were here with us. Please don't be mad at us because we had to do what was best for you because we loved you sooooo much.
We will think of you everyday all the day and will always remember the funny things you did like chew our underwear, biting Aliyah and growling at Aliyah when she rolled over on you in the middle of the night and how you used to whimper when I said my prayers because I wasn't devoting my full attention to you. I miss you most of all but you are always, always in my heart...
Love You Always
Mama and Aliyah...

My little guy helped me to be a better person, and a better dad. I miss you so much........

Rogelio Rodriguez

You came to me with 10 years but I love you, you were a good boy and I know you were Happy with us, We love you Papo

Daisy Cruz

Pappinator you were my best friend and mommy is missing you. I want you to be the first to greet me when I get there and we'll play ball-bee and glove again. And we'll have chicken off the pizza. Love you forever.....

Nansey

I dont know if she died but I have never seen her again so I want to say this in her memory... she was a wonderful cat very nervous at all times but she had a way of communicating with you and she was so tiny it made you want to hold her close and comfort her all the time... i loved her dearly and will miss her very much.

Elizabeth

My sweet Paris.
I love you so much and mommy misses you every minute.
But I know you're not afraid any more. I will always treasure the time that I had with my little girl.
Paris you will always be safe in my heart in your special place. I will see you when I come for you.
Until them play and be happy. I know you are waiting for me.

Sheryl Whaley

My little Parker came to me as a stray.
He was dropped off at work, he had a broken leg.
I was going to foster him, then find him a home.
Of course, he moved into my heart and never left.
He was a very quiet kitty, and got along well with my old man, O'Malley.
Parker will be greatly missed and remembered always as "the one with the big belly."
I love you, Parker, and I will see you one day again.

Melissa Lambertsen

In your last minute of life, we held you and tried to match the comfort that you had given.

You were, what you so loved to hear spoken to you.

A Good Dog.
Love, Momma & Daddy

I miss you my little man.
Thank you for being my friend.

Donna Brown

Parker "my little lamb"
Parker was the sweetest, loudest and most curious little skinny pig! He was named Parker because he was a "nosey" little baby; a sweet little "nosey-Parker." He passed on Easter Monday and took a huge part of my heart. Our cavy herd will never be the same. We miss you my love.
Heather M.Bird
and the herd.....Alfie, Ben, Izzie & Poppie

Parker was the most loving, loyal, devoted & mischeivous little thing.
She was taken from us way too soon and we will miss her every minute of every day.
We love her so much.

Randi, Ken & Kyla Laws

We love you,Parker,and miss you so much. When
you suddenly left, you took a large piece of our hearts with you. Believing in the Rainbow Bridge helps us to get through each day. We just have to know that we will see you again.Rest in peace, our little one, and know that we think of you each day. Life in the house just isn't the same without you.

Andrew and Frances Soltis

She was such a special girl to us.
My father called her the Queen of Sheba.
I know she is with him now giving him comfort until we can all meet again.
I miss that sweet face so much.

Randie & Taylor Ellis

Pasha was the most generous and unconditionally giving living creature that God could create.

Eating, playing, and sleep always came second when she felt her protective/loving ways were needed by her human parents.
She was as huggable as a teddybear and Pasha instantly mimicked that hug back to you with the added exclamation mark being her tail wagging with a vibrance of love only Pasha could do.
Loyal was her middle name.

Edward Ouellette & Sonia Jacobson

You were the light of mylife its so hard to believe that you will not be here for me any longer.
we have been through so much together, I have moved 7 times, and you were there with me all the time.
you had the most beautiful face, the most unforgettable personality, I love you so much, I can still hear you, I will never love anyone pet as much as I love you, my pasha poop

Paula

Pasha was my best friend for 15 years.
She was by my side through everything I ever went through.
I miss her more than you could possibly know.
I just can't wait until I can see her again and get all those kisses that she gave to me everyday.
I love you Pashy Poo

Stacy Taylor

Passion was a beautiful loving companion for 1 little over 11 years. He was always gentle, protective of me and loved nothing more than to spend time together.He leaves behind many broken hearts belonging to those who loved him very much.His life was just too short!

Sandy

Passion, my love, you were not just a pet. You were my best friend, my baby boy, my world.I can remember bringing you home when you were just a puppy. Now, 8 years later, I find myself lost without you. I've heard about this wonderful place called the Rainbow Bridge.I hope you will have the best time here running, playing, and just being your crazy, hyper self, while you wait to rejoin me. I will never forget you, always love you, and look forward to the day we can reunite. Please forgive me for greiving and being sad for too long.I know you would want me happy.I'll try my best. Kris and I, and yes even Kitty too, miss you so much. Just remember, go play and we'll see each other again.I love you, mommy.

Patch...I love you sweetheart.
You were and always will be the best dog on earth!
You were beautiful and so obedient, always wanting to please others, asking nothing in return.
It hurt so much to have to let you go, but I knew you were in so much pain.
I long for the day when I see you again and can pet and kiss you and tell you how much you were missed.
Take special care of daddy up in Heaven and wait on me.
I'll see you one day, I promise.
I love you Patch.
God be with you!

Jill Schurtz-Matchett

For the love of Patch, I've been blessed. He came
into my life about six months ago as a foster dog. I was able to get him medical care through
the kindness of a Rescue Group.
I guess it was just too late.
I didn't see much improvement in
him.
Until finallly he got sick one day, and
passed peacefully the next.
Patch was always happy to see me.
He gave me a smile and wagged
his tail and pranced around. He even tried to talk to me. I love him so much and I miss him.
Until we meet again Patch, at Rainbow Bridge,

you'll stay in my thoughts and my heart.

Brenda Kirby

We miss you so much.
You are so special to us and we will never forget everytime you brightened our lives.
We love you.
Rest well, our sweet boy.

Brandi & Shelby Worthy, Scooter, Kitcat & Dixie

She lived out a life of absolute blind faith in us , having arrived just in time to lessen our grief over the loss of our girl Molly. She filled that role admirably with a love that may someday be equaled- but will certainly never be forgotten.
Rest easy sweetheart- Mom and Dad will miss you.

Patch the chav was a loving dog he was our bestfreind, he was always happy you could talk to him when you was down. Eventhough he was a dog . He always loved roming around our fields and he had loads of freinds. He was a very fussy eater he only ate pedagre food he loved his treats. JUST MAKE SURE HE IS LOVED
BY A FAMILY AND HAS GOT LOADS OF FREINDS AND GETS TAKEN GOOD CARE OF IN DOGGY HEAVEN. LOVE YOU LOAS AND YOUR LOVED AND BEEN THOUGHT OF EVERY DAY.

Alex Sam Sean Becca Chris

It's only been a few hours since you left this earth and I miss you so much already. It will never be the same without you sleeping on my head, the place you claimed 14 years ago! When my pain lessens,I will enjoy the many funny and sweet memories of you. For now the pain is unbearable. I love you sweet Patch-Rick.

Rhonda Magnotti

On Dec. 10, 2007, my beloved pretty kitty Patches crossed the Rainbow Bridge into Heaven, after a courageous battle with kidney and liver failure, and possibly cancer as well. Rest in peace, my beautiful baby. Mommy loves you and will forever miss you!

Patricia McClain

you will always be my baby. we had a good life together. i wasn't ready for you to go. you will always be in my heart. i love you.

Sandy Patrick

Another angel has left earth and gone to be with God. Patches was a beautiful spirited but independent cat who loved her milk and her stuffed toys. She would purr all the time and could lie down and relax at the drop of a hat. She loved to be loved and I know that God will welcome her at the gate.

Brian and Bobbie

I bottle fed Patches & Panther(brothers) from 3 weeks old, getting up every 3 hours every night for 3 weeks. I watched them grow from tiny babies that could fit in one hand together to seemingly healthy boys. One night I noticed neither was eating or drinking so I stayed up most of the night taking care of them. The next morning I took them to the vet where they were diagnosed with feline leukemia. They were 3 1/2 months old when they passed away and I will never forget their happy little faces and the innocent fun they used to have playing with each other...it was even cute when they used my legs for scratching posts. They brought so much joy to my life and have left a void that will never be filled.

Sarah

We so enjoyed Patches time with us. With her unusual personality she added excitement to our everyday lives, including the lives of our other two cats.

Fred & Jane Menkhaus

Goodbye sweet love.
Our first kitten who made me a cat lover.
You brought us so much joy over the past 16 years.

We will always love and miss you sweetheart.

She is in our hearts forever.

A SPECIAL LITTLE GIRL WHO I TOLD IF THEY WRE ALL LIKE YOU THE WORLD BE A BETTER PLACE

Chuck Sullivan

Patches was my first horse that I truly loved. She took care of me and let me learn how to ride. We rode in many playdays and in the Cowboy of Colors Rodeo in San Antonio where we made Texas History by being the first kid participating in the Pony Express. She'd be laying down and I'd climb on her back and she'd get up with me sitting there. She was my equine partner and best friend. I got her when I was three and we were partners until I was six. Short three years but a good and very active three years. I still miss her and think about her alot.

Wyatt Taylor

I love you Patches.
See you at the bridge.

Kathie Long

Your sister has now joined you in the field of happiness and love.
Your snuggles and kisses are always missed, but you are in our hearts forever.
We love you

eric,angie, brian and dave

We shared one short year with our dear Patches, such a short amount or time, but he gave us enough love and memories to last a lifetime.
We have pain in our hearts over the loss of our beloved little Angel.
We will never forget him and he will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Darion and Karen

A beautiful calico and a fantastic cat

Gwen Claffey

Rest in peace by beloved Patches.
You were truly an angel and lived a long and healthy life.

Teresa Thompson

Patches, you will forever be in our hearts!
From the day you came into our lives at a few hours old, until you took your last breath, you have been a joy to have in our lives.
I will always remember the love you gave to any dog that came into our house.
I knew when you were diagnosed with diabetes 9-20-06, that time might be limited with you on this earth.
But you fought a good and hard fight!
We love you!
Nan, Gary, your loving parents.

Patches always used to follow me to my uncles house. He only lives down the bank and across the creek. Every time he would hear us down there he would follow. One day he followed the car and we didn't know it. He started across the road and a car ran over him. We didn't know it until my uncle went to work one day and saw him beside the road he called my mom and told her. She wouldn't tell me because i was only 3 or 4. She told me that he was just gone out with his girlfriend. He used to go out and stay gone for like 3 or 4 weeks and come back with a different collar on so I figured he would be back in a few days. He never did come back. A few years ago my mom told me and I cried. Not because I was sad but because she didn't tell me the truth. I'm not mad at her I just miss my Patches. His mom had the litter of puppies and he was the only one that lived out of 12. Patches, some day we will meet over that rainbow. I miss you so much I love you. I will never forget you.

Tracy

My sweet friend, always by my side ever vigilant watching and always protective. I will always feel you with me and wait to be with you again.
I miss you..

Cyndee

To our wonderful POUND PUPPIE:

Patches was the best loving cat ever and we miss her already - we will love you forever!

Teresa Durma

she was my best friend and the only person i ever truely gave my heart 100% to. i got lucky, i had two extra years with her, but it didnt make yesterday (THE day) any eaiser. i dont think i have any tears left to cry... and i havent lost the numb feeling that came over me the second her heart stopped. i know she's at the bridge waiting for me... but it doesnt ease the pain or make living eaiser. she was with me over half my life and i honestly cant remeber how to live without her. today was my first day without her and i dont know how to... function properly. i know it comes with time, but i honestly dont think my time will ever come

Haleigh

Patchie was the most gentle cat I've ever had...she loved everyone and all animals, dogs included
:)
She was a rescue...she succumbed to cancer at an early age & I was totally unprepared for it...I will always miss her

Mary

We miss you

Kay Black

Thank you for 31/2 wonderful years. You brought so much joy and love to us. I never knew a pet could bring so much. Every moment was special and so were you. I will always remember the way you would look up at me so sappily during lap/snuggle time. You will be greatly missed and own a piece of my heart. May the love of God surround you and the angels shine bright on you. WE LOVE AND MISS YOU PRECIOUS PATCHES!

Sandy Gillin

Patches came into our lives later in her life.
We were surprised to see how she became part of our family, but only on her own terms.
Tonight there is a great sense of loss at her passing.
She is not underfoot, she is not meowing to be let out of doors, she is not bothering the dog.
But above all, she is not here and she is sorely missed.
Good-bye to a fine cat and treasured member of our family

Tom and Gary

My Patches my baby, I miss you so much, especially today, Easter morning. Daddy and I did our bone hunt with your mommy, daddy and Brownie. I wasn’t going to have it. But I could feel your spirit with us.
Remembering when you use to help look for eggs and then find your bone. Remembering you when I helped deliver you, I was the first to welcome you into this wonderful world with your four brothers and sisters, your black and white fur, so soft and fluffy. Then when you opened your eyes, you had one black and one blue eye. I new you were a special pup that the God’s above had sent to us. You helped us through Hurricane Wilma when we lost our home we had no home but we still had each other, we cried together, played and worked together.
I will cherish the time that God above let you stay, and I know your time came too soon! God must have had a mission for you to take you so soon. I miss brushing your hair, and you hugging and kissing me, I miss you catching lizards and bring them to me, and me saying my kitty-dog Patches. My bed feels empty with out you in it.
I know your not suffering any more. Your mommy Kayla misses you playing with her in the yard. She lays in the dinning room where you laid, Your daddy Max keeps looking for you by your tree, Your sister Brownie isn’t the same. She mopes around the house. The other day she was catching lizards and it made me cry. She’s not doing well!
I pray that God doesn’t need her also.
Your short 3 years, 4 months and 4 days with us will be cherished for a lifetime. I promise you baby that no other living fury friend will suffer like you did. I will do every thing in my power to make the manufactures of pet food make it safe, for future pets. I love you baby, and I’ll see you at the golden arches when it’s my time.
Love your mommy, Deb

to my special little friend, we had lots of love and happiness together.
i love you and i always will.
i think you are warm now and in the outdoors which you loved so well.
i await the time that we can be together again.
God bless you little one and hold you close.

Leslie Barta

She lived a long, joyous life. You could always count on her to be there to make your face smile when you weren't yourself. You are in no pain now, you will be soley missed. You will always be Baby Patch to me. You will always, always be in my heart and never will forget you. You be good, and stay away from the mean cat.

Jonathon

You were a good loyal dog who will be deeply missed.
Farewell, loyal campanion...until we meet again.

Yosh and Linda Nakamura

Patches I miss you so much but I know you are in a place with no pain now. I hope you are playing with Woggie, Cleo, and Midnight. I will always remember the call for bally ball,drinking out of the faucet or my glass, kisses on my nose, and waking up to share my pillow with you.
You showed me so much love and I have to believe we will be reunited some day. I love you. Mom
PS Cody and Jizzi miss you.

miss you very much
love you always always in my heart

Jean Wayland

Patches was a member of our family for 13 years. I rescued her. She had been abandoned from a trailer park hungry, cold and tired. I took that baby with me, stopped at the store and got some food to fill her tummy and took her home with me. For 13 years, she thanked me everday. She talked to me constantly with a meow, purred all the time and was a happy soul. I only put her to sleep a few days ago but my heart aches for her. I didn't know one could grieve for a pet so much. I will always remember you Patch girl. I love you.

Stacy Lynch

We will miss you Patches, but we know you are in a better place and will continue to take care of us.
We will always love you and miss you and hold you dear in our hearts.

Go in piece our trusted, spirited little girl.

Daddy, Mommy and CC

Patches, such a gentle and loving dog.
Our walks together will be missed.
Our singing sessions were harmony to my ears.

Until then, enjoy chasing the critters, the sunshine on your back and the freedom you deserve.
God Bless!

Patchy, you will be missed so very much. You gave unconditional love & you were always ready to comfort me. I promise never to forget you & I also promise to keep looking after your sister, Blackie, until it is time for her to join you. Everytime I use the computer you will be with me as my e:mail address is your nickname. I will always love & miss you. Mummy

Sue

In memory of my babygirl, I loved her dearly and miss her.
My girlfriend got Patience for another friend, as a replacement pet, as they had loss their's, but it didn't work out, so Patience became mine, as I feel it was ment to be.
We gave each other the love that we both needed, unconditionally.
We all need to be loved and I'm thankful that she was part of my life.
My heart aches for her, but she lives on in my heart and memories.

You were such a sweet dog. Even though it has only been two days since you've passed, I still can't bare the thought that you are not here. I love you, and will always love you. I will miss your beautiful face, and how you would always follow me around, and stay close to me. I just wish I could still go outside and give you a big hug. I love you, Anna H.

Patrick you were our wonderful, beautiful boy. You had such love to give and loved kisses and hugs from us. When the vet said your leg reflexes were gone and there was nothing they could do I felt like it was the end of the world. These weeks without you have been so difficult. I miss your companionship and love. Please be there to greet me when the time comes. I love you with all my heart and so does your Papa. We are broken hearted. We love you and we miss you.

After 15 years we have lost our best friend.
Patti, we will love you always and never forget you.
You brought so much joy and love into our lives, we hope that you are in a better place where you are not in pain and can run and play once again.

Tanya Brice

Dear Patty:

I remember the first day I saw you. There were so may beautiful dogs all around the shelter.
You were the most beautiful dog in the shelter.
You had a the most beautiful eyes.
White and black your fur. So little and so much love to give.
I would like to tell you that you I will never forget you.
We spend 10 great years together and it seems like it was yesterday.
I will miss you but I know that I will see you later when I come and meet you again in heaven.
Love Mom.

Patty came to live with us in July 2005.
She was mischievous, quirky, funny, lovable, beautiful, and vibrant.
In short, she was the best dog either of us have known.
She loved Agility class, cookies, morning kisses, and catching frisbees at the dog park.
We’re grateful that her last moments were at home near those who loved her so much, including her mother, playmate, and friend, Athena.
Her time with us was cut much too short and she will be dearly missed.

Danielle Snoddy & Davis Brown

Patty was with us for 18 years and helped us raise our children to adults.
She was our girl at home after the kids left.
She was missed greatly when she had to leave for the Rainbow Bridge.
Her sister Jill has joined her now.

Ralph & Terry Beattie

To my friends,
Yesterday 11-18-07 we had to say good bye to our beloved Patty O' Stray.
As everyone knows she held a special place in our hearts.
What a wonderful life she gave to us.
She has been my copilot, my companion, my dearest friend, my teacher and my confidant for 13 &1/2 great years.
We in return gave her all the love that we had.
We said our good byes with tears in our hearts but knowing she is going to a wonderful place, where she won't have the aches and pains as elder dogs have.
We will truly miss her and her wonderful zest for life.
My sweet Patty you will always be in our hearts.
God bless.
Mom & Dad

Paws was adopted by my late mother-in-law at the same shelter where we adopted Barney.
My "Little Mom" wanted to make sure that we found a cat who would like us, as she knew that she was dying of cancer.
Paws came to live with us 10 years ago, and took a long time to sort out the pecking order with Barney.
By the end of their lives, they were sleeping in the same bed together.
She was the sweetest, black and white cookie of a cat, with pink and black paws, and a pink nose.
She was doing fine, but kept looking for Barney after he died.
Then one day, she began to have trouble breathing and wouldn't eat or take water.
I brought her to the vet and they tried to save her, but she was in congestive heart failure and was suffering.
Once again we had to put a beloved pet to sleep.
It was just too much.
Two pets lost in the span of four months.
They were our "kids,' as we do not have human children.
I keep thinking that I see her sitting on her favorite spot on the sofa.
Both Paws and Barney have come to me in dreams, which brings comfort.
We miss them more than we could ever imagine.

Suzanne

Sweet and loving companion who brightened our lives with her gentle manner and enormously loud purr. Paws passed away suddenly this morning, though the vet fought hard to save her. Paws didn't want to leave us and stayed as long as she could. Rest in peace, dear one. In heaven, no one steals your comfy chair or tries to share your spot in the cat tree. We love you always!!

Nancy Forrest

A good friend and companion for almost 20 years.
He will be very missed!

Amy Grande

Pax was a very good Soul, We love you!

Stacey D.Green

We will always have a GOLDEN place in our hearts for our sweet dog Payton. Payton filled our lives with love and companionship. He was a very special dog and will always be missed.

Kathi & Marc Schnake

I just lost a piece of my heart. On January 06, 2005, my family thought I had lost my mind when I rescued cat #5 from a life of abuse, but they ended up loving her the most. It didn't take us very long to realize she was an exceptional kitty, or Payton long to realize her "forever home" was the best place she could have ever imagined. She loved her life and her home so much. Although this baby had the best two years of her life, it was much too short. She was as happy as happy could be. She was so excited when someone approached her, she would shake all over and wave her head around, and loved to butt heads and rub against your face. The kindest, gentlest little soul with so much love to give, I think she was making up for all of her bad days. Every minute of the day she was happy and always in a hurry not to miss the sun in a window, a dancing leaf in her backyard, or the chance to show her humans how thankful she was, and how much she loved us. I got more love from her in those two short years, than I could have ever imagined. I fell in love with her the second I saw her, and I will never forget her beautiful blue eyes and how she was saying thank you in the car that first day, and every day since. Thank YOU Payton, for all the love, joy, and happiness these past two years.
These wonderful memories and my love for you will be with me forever, Mom.

Payton,

You were our rock and made us smile everyday.
We had a sad day this thanksgiving and we will never forget you and are very sorry you were taken from us so suddenly.
we will never forget you!! make sure to play losts of fetch.. we love you so much.

love mom and dad

My heart is broken.
I miss you.

Kristin Mersberger

Payton Malone is gone but not forgotten!!
He passed on 11/30/06. This was the worst day ever!!
I miss him so much!!
He was my "Road Dog" he was with me all the time!! My furry companion,always there for me,loved me no matter what!!
I hope he knows how much I love him and that I miss him so much!!

Shari

For all the times you made me smile when there was nothing smile about.
For the times when I just wanted to relax and you were so persistant in playing ball, and made me get up and play with you.
For the times you cuddled with me and gave me unconditional love......
For these times and more, I love you, and will miss you with my whole heart.

Love,
Mom and Dad

Run Free PB.
We love and miss you.
We'll see you again some day.

Judy and Janna

P.D. was the best 'Puppy Dog' anyone would ever ask for. The love she gave us for her entire life will forever be in our hearts. She is missed each and every day. No other girl was as precious as she was and will always remain that way to us. ALWAYS.

Bill Sullivan and Kerry Sutherland

Terri and Hank's babydog will be deeply missed.

Terri French-Varney

Our Darling Peach. So full of life, a real character, she may of been small, but she had the heart of a lion. She could be grumpy, and bossed all the other dogs about, but that was Peach!She loved her Toy's, and would spend forever in the paddling pool, trying to scrape the penguin pictures off the bottom of it, with her paws. One day, she could still be found in the pool, 11pm at night in the rain...we had to laugh & it took some doing to get her back indoors!Peach was loyal to the end, following Tash everywhere, or laying on her jumper or slippers (growling at whoever passed them!).We never thought the day would come when we would have to say goodbye little one, and we miss you so much princess.We love you for always & miss you more xxxxxx Chance,Harley & Jazmine (dogs), Dinah, Chloe, Pixie (cats), & all the other wee ones, miss you too xxxx

I love you very much....you are a terrific doggie
with all my love,

Peaches the 13 lb rabbit left us suddenly when she had just turned five. The day before she was perfectly healthy and doing her normal activities of begging for food, ripping up cardboard boxes, and snoozing on one of her 15 pet beds.

When we adopted her from the rabbit rescuer she was very scared. She'd never lived in a house before and it took her months before she had the courage to leave the bedroom. She always woke up when I did so she'd get her morning treat and she loved to hang out by the woodstove and "inspect" the firewood. She had more bunny toys than any other bunny in the world and we just doted on her.

Peaches was also a blog celebrity on my knitting blog. She was even voted "Best Blog Pet" and I made her an award certificate and took a photo of it next to her.

We love her so much and are so sad she left us too soon. Peaches, wherever you are, we will never forget you and how happy you made us!

Nanette Blanchard

Peaches was such a loving and devoted sweet little soul.
She'd rather be outside playing and visiting all the neighbors, than sitting in the house. She loved her people, and we loved our little "Fur Baby".
She had a long and healthy life, until cancer and senility forced us to relieve her of her pain.
I'll never forget that day....I carried her all the way home in her favorite blanket wrapped securely in my arms while I cried and drove. I didn't want to let go of her then, and won't now. But she has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge where someday....we will be together again.
Until then sweet girl remember we loved you then & even still now. Momma, Daddy, and Jeramie

Peaches was a very special cat and will be missed more than I can put into words.
She loved to snuggle her nose under my chin and purr until she would fall asleep.
She would also find the strangest places throughout our house to sleep.
She leaves behind her Mommy and Daddy, her human brothers Justin, Brian, and Elliott, and her cat siblings Kissamee, Sport, and Tipsy.

Peaches...Mommy loved you very much and misses you so much her heart hurts.
The only thing that brings me comfort is thinking that you aren't suffering anymore and are finally at peace.

Danielle Morse

My Baby Boy i miss you

Nina McCreery-Phillips

Peaches was our child with whom we intimately bonded and shared every aspect of life.
Her simple, angelic nature taught us to love deeply and be forever grateful for each moment here on earth.
She will always be remembered with great joy and endless love in our hearts.

John and Pam Rubush

WE WILL FOREVER MISS YOU PEACHES, YOU WERE THE BEST DOG ANYONE COULD EVER HOPE FOR.

KNOW THAT WE LOVE YOU AND ALWAYS WILL.

MOM, DAD, DANI, ANGEL AND ZOE.

We all can't wait to be with you again. xoxoxoxo

An angel on earth for 16 years but an angel in our hearts forever

Christina Wolbert

Peaches was an amazing, exuberantly happy, high strung ball of energy. She hardly slowed down for the first 17 years of her life and could never get enough to eat. She said "I love you" for food or even just a hug. She was a sweethearted, gentle girl and every moment of her life was filled with her innocent joy of living. She could aggravate me worse than anyone I've known, she also made me laugh equally as much. Not one sick day in her life until the last 5 days and it broke my heart to see this joyful sweetheart in such pain. She only wanted me close in the end and it was a privilege to be there with her, a privilege to be loved by her. I would do another 18 years with her again in a heartbeat. We love you Peaches now and forever. You will live on in our hearts.

Betsy & Gracie Brand

Our dearly beloved Peaches - you always made us so happy no matter what the circumstances. You were just so full of joy and God took you so fast - but I know you are with Rusty now and Princess too - so ahve fun and we will see you again - the girls miss you too!

Michael & Lisa

Thank you, I will miss you forever.

We love you Peachy Peach! You will always be our little girl doggy forever! We will miss you and hold you in our hearts forever.

Joe and Amy

Humans ask why. It’s one of the things we do that animals, as far as we know, don’t bother with. Sometimes there are answers; sometimes there aren’t. It will soon be a year since my beloved Peaches died too suddenly and too soon, and I still finding myself asking not just one “why” but many.

I remember the day I got her from the Toronto Humane Society. I had only recently lost a sweet, sickly Siamese who had been with me for many years and had always seemed plucky through one malady after another. I wasn’t looking for another cat that day, I swear, and certainly not a female (I’d never had one) and most certainly not a big, calico hairball. Then the strangest thing happened. I’d looked at several cats and had actually left the building, when I had the sudden, unreasoning conviction that I had to have that cat.

By the time I got back into the building, a young couple had already decided to take her (two prospective homes in five minutes; that was the kind of charm she had), and it took much, often emotional, persuasion before I found myself in possession of the single best animal I’ve ever known.

Even then I wondered why. Why her? Did I pick her or did she pick me? What had passed between us in the couple of fleeting seconds I’d looked at her in her cage?

From the very first day, though, there was a connection there, a shared comfort level and instant familiarity, as if we had known each other for a long time. She was bright and attentive, a talker, and had an almost dog-like (no, it’s not an insult) desire to please. I was in a bad place, as they say, for reasons far beyond the death of little Tsuky the Siamese, but Peaches was a ray of light, a sudden gift from someone or something. But why?

Of all the animals I’d had – cats, dogs, horses – I’d never felt that kind of emotional bond or sense of understanding, not just me understanding her but her understanding me. There was a wonderful, wordless communication. I was mesmerized by her.
.
We had three wonderful years together. Only three. Then a congenital heart defect gave her a blood clot, and within a week she was gone. The vets were wonderful and she got the best of care. They actually told me she was getting better. And then they called and said I should come quickly, but I wasn’t quick enough. She died in a hospital, surrounded by loving professionals but not by me. She was only five.

As I write this, it’s less than a year since she was taken from me, and yes, I think of it like that. A year ago, she was still in my life, still playful, still giving, still “talking”; I’d still wake in the night and feel one paw just ever so lightly touching me. I’d wake in the morning to find her watching me. There seemed no reason to doubt we’d have many more years to come. In fact, we were heading for a new life together in Australia. Not two weeks before she passed away, I finally got her papers in order. The arrangements were all made. And then she was gone.

Why was I given three years with her, why were we given three years with each other, but no more?

Some days the glass is half full – at least we had the three years. Some days it’s half empty – why not more? What had I done to deserve losing her?

People were kind; they offered comfort, according to their takes on life. It was an omen. It was a message. It was God’s mysterious will. She came into your life for reason and she left for a reason. But what reason? Why?

I think of myself as a logical, hard-headed, pragmatic person, but I find myself wondering about “old souls” and the uncanny sense I had from the very first that Peaches and I were connected. Who knows? As Shakespeare said, “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamed of in your philosophy.” Either way, whether she was an old soul or just a very special little animal, whoever she was, she was a gift.

The three years were a gift. Whatever the reason.

Peaches I hope and pray that all your pain is gone now and you are up there in the meadows by the Rainbow Bridge chasing lizards again.
Without a doubt because of the terrible abuse you went through before I found you, the damage some human caused made you probably one of the ugliest dogs ever seen.
It wasn't your very sad tale, or pity that made us adopt you, it was those big wide brown eyes that were so full of love and there was such a begging look in those beautiful eyes of your's that brought you to us.
Despite your appearance without a doubt you were the favorite dog with anyone and everyone that ever met you in this life.
You had something special that everyone could see once they met you.
It was obvious that you had a whole lot of love to give and love you gave to everyone.
It was one of the worst days in my life when you had to be gently put to sleep but I knew that the pain you were suffering was finally gone.
I know that I probably waited far too long and made you suffer needlessly because I just couldn't part with you but I finally found the courage to relieve you of the pain and to end the screams of pain that you were in almost daily.
I'm so sorry that I couldn't let go but please know it wasn't out of cruelty but it was too hard to let you go. Please forgive me for making you suffer as long as you did.
I have to believe that the Rainbow Bridge is really there because today I also lost my precious Brandi.
I was braver this time and didn't wait quite as long to let go but it still wasn't easy to let your sister go.
The both of you had so much fun along with Sheena and Max in your younger days.
I know in my heart that you are all together again and playing and chasing each other again.
Please wait for me and know that I can't wait to have you in my arms again.
I love you Peaches and I love all your brothers and sisters that have gone to the Bridge.
I love you my precious Peaches.
Love, Mom

O little ball of fluffiness
Another cat treat, dear?
I could not sleep because you'd keep
Meowing in my ear!
You filled my love tank daily
To overflowing--ooh!
O little poof under my roof
Miss Peaches--We miss you!

Mark Reeder

Peaches gave me 15 years of love and loyalty.
She made me laugh and she made me cry.
I, along with her pal Phoebe, miss her terribly.

Mary Lou Holmes

Peaches was an exceptional kitty.
She was my only baby for 10 years and continued to be the queen of my home until her death from kidney failure just 3 months shy of her 18th birthday.
Although there are 7 cats still living in my home, there is a tremendous void without my angel kitty.
She is now and will always be greatly missed.
Those of us who have no two-legged babies value our beloved pets as if they are our children.

Jordan Roberta Richardson

Peaches, I knew from the day I saw you born that you would be part of our family.
I just wish it would have been for longer than 7 years.
You were the BEST dog in the world.
You were dad's best friend and he misses you a lot everyday!
I cry every time I see something that was your's or see a picture of you.
Every time I come to mom and dad's house, I expect you to be on the other side of the door when I open it to jump up on me and cover me with your hair.
We see your dad a lot and Danielle's house and I just cry.
You looked and acted just like him.
You listened like no other dog I have ever seen and you danced for treats and dinner-oh so cute!!!
You were such a smart dog!
We all miss you very much and you will forever be in our hearts and on our minds!
The tears come everyday, but there is some comfort in knowing that you are with your "fur mommy" Deja now keeping watch over us.
We will all be together again someday.
Until then, have fun playing with Tiffany, Brandy, Wally, Butchie, and Butchie II.
Please be waiting for me on The Bridge!!
I love you and will miss you ALWAYS!!!

Denny, Cindy, and Shannon

She was the BEST.

Cindy and Denny

Peaches, I loved you for 14 years, and you me..then we met daddy and he loved you with all of his heart 9 years ago as well..
thank you for teaching us to love unconditionally and for learning how to be parents. xo

Erica B

I will never forget you Peaches....You taught me so much. The way you cared for your puppies on your own...I had only had purebred dog's but you put them to shame. When I first saw you outside my shop you were so small but the look you had in your eyes...It took a while for you to let me be your friend but than you also gave me your heart you trusted me so much. Let me take your babies to the shelter and let me take you to the vet to get fixed and shots. I had hoped to have you for ever but that was not to be. You were such a free spirt no holding you back. I have your picture on my desk top. I will never forget you Peaches you were the BEST of the Best Love Mom RIP

I have to say goodbye to her
I guess it was her time to go, yet she still had so much time to grow
I've had her for five years
I guess five years was just too long
But as the tears come down my face
I feel a part of me is gone
She was my love, she was my pride, she was everything that was once mine
My memories will never fade
My dreams of her are here to stay
I wish she could talk I would have a lot to say
To tell her I love her and I think about her everyday
But today is a day, a day I will remember
Today is the day I lost a family member.
Love, Sam

Peaches was my friend and my walking partner.
Even in her old age, she perked up when she saw my get my sneakers out.
She even walked with me the day she passed away.
I am so thankful that she went peacefully and suddenly...having enjoyed a normal day.
We miss her so much and it's been over a year. We are so thankful for over fourteen great years with this sweet dog.

Laura Schisler

You are missed and loved.

Karen, Jeff, Jennifer, and Ryan Burdette

she was... very sick, and sore, and it just wasn't good for her to be here any more.
I miss her more than I would have ever thought possible... and hurts to know that she'll never follow me to the bathroom anymore or beg for more food just because she doesn't want to eat the stuff at the bottom of the dish.
She won't ever walk through the house with half an Easter egg in her mouth like she used to... she was always so proud of that... Now when you come in the garage... she's not waiting for you on the washer or dryer like she used to.
I'm not going to get to hear her little soft purr every night while I fall asleep, she's not going to wake me up to pet her, she's never going to accidentally singe her tail on the candles anymore... and she's not going to check and make sure that water is water anymore... (she used to stick her paw in the water before she would drink it)
she'll never be in the sink curled up anymore... she won't open my door in the middle of the night... or come up next to me on my chair and accidentally whack things off the table with her tail.
It breaks my heart to know I'm not going to hear her barely audible meer-at, or her little neighy noise.
I'm going to miss my little protector... she might have been small... but she wasn't going to let that stop her!
she would bite people's toes if she didn't like how they were acting...

anyway... she is the best cat I could have ever asked for... she was SO unbelievably amazing.
I loved her so much.

But, I know that its better now.
She's up there somewhere, pitterpattering, meer-at-ing, and drinking from as many faucets as she wants.
There are easter egg halves galore, for her to pick up and prance around with them she was always so proud when she got them!

Up until the end of her life on earth with us... she was a stubborn one, maybe thats why we got along so well!
Even in the vets office just before... she wanted to try to walk one last time... and she did it too!
She got a good 2 feet to the wall where she rested against it, until we picked her up and set her on the pillow... and just stayed with her.

Jen

Peaches was the best little rat ever.
She came to me when I called her, gave me little kisses, and loved meeting new people.
She was my companion for 3 years and will be sorely missed.

Rachel Tapp

My darling baby girl, it will be 4 years in a couple of months but you are still missed so very much. I think of you everyday. I hope you are playing with all the others babies who are there with you. But one day we will meet there and be togeher again. So just keep playing and having fun until we meet again. I love you BUNCHES...Mommie

Beautiful Peaches was such a sweet lovable dog. We miss her very much

Andy Anderson

Me & Acelynn, & your Mommy-Scruffy & Daddy-Tiger, miss you both very much, you are always in our hearts, we all love u both & would give anything to have you back here with us

Mommy and Daddy miss you little one. We were blessed to have known you and been loved by you.

Karen & Dana Yeoman

All she ever asked for was to be loved, fresh food and fresh water. Peaches was my best friend, my Baby Girl, for 17 long wonderful years.
Through the years her sight and hearing faded away, as well as her zest for life...but she will always be remembered as the one who loved me unconditionally....here is to the one that gave me more than money could ever buy.
Peaches....I love you and miss you.

Charlotte Bazzanella

Well my beautiful boy, it's been a year and a half without you and my heart still aches for you. I long to hold you again in my arms, to kiss your cute little nose and to pet your perfectly textured coat.
You are my everything boy, be happy, be free and know how much I love and miss you.
Until we meet again..my friend and soulmate. I love you, Momma
Good boy Ruchie, you ol horse!

Lynda Furse

Our beloved Pete.
We miss you so much.
We miss you meeting us in the morning and evenings.
We miss you checking out the yard.
We miss your smile.
You were a good girl.
We love how smart you were and how you knew what we were thinking.
We miss taking you fishing.
We will see you in the after.
We love you Pete.

John & Leasa & Jake Baker

Peaches,
You brought so much joy to my Family and I.
You were the best gift I have ever received.
You will be missed dearly.
We LOVE YOU.
May you rest in Peace.

Peaches

We never realized we could love a pet so much.
You were a huge part of our lives..we miss you so much. We still hope you may come home sometime, to get a bellyrub from your Dad, and play "guys" with you Mom. We love you and you are in our hearts forever.

Love George and Joan

She was the sweetest funniest little LoveBird.
She will be missed by all of us.
My little baby Peach.
Fly high little one.
I love you!
Your life was much to short.

Jo An and Richard

Peacock was my first pet!
i got her when i was four years old because i had a strong interest in birds as a baby. i never really handled her to much, until after we moved to our new house and i figured she was having a hard time to so i got her out and played with her from that day on at least twice a week.now im 15 years old and because of her my interest in birds grew to be an interest in all animals. i foster many animals and take care of every animal that needs me.i also help at a humane socitey and at a horse stable. i loved that bird so much and i will miss her forever!!

Mary

My sweet, sweet baby girl. I miss you so much, I will always love you and can't wait until we are together again.

Cindy Cortazzo

Peanut was rescued from the animal shelter about 6 years ago.
She was scheduled for euthanasia.
I saw her sad brown eyes and could not leave her there.
I took her home to join my family.
She was so grateful to me for saving her.
She was always such a joy and brought a lot of happiness to my life.
I will think of her everyday.
I miss her so much.

Maggie D

i really miss him alot.he was loved,care for.he will always be in my heart,prayers. love mom..

Sheila Rhoades

Dear Peanut,

Doddie

I MISS YOU SO MUCH,SO MUCH THAT I CANNOT BARE THE PAIN. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART FOREVER AND EVER. YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND AND ALWAYS WILL BE. IT WASN'T FAIR THAT YOU GOT SO SICK, BUT YOU WERE SO STRONG THROUGH IT ALL, BUT YOUR TIME HAD TO COME TO END BECAUSE YOUR HEALTH WAS SO BAD. I DID NOT WANT TO SEE YOU SUFFER ANYMORE. THE TEARS COME AND GO EVERYDAY AND I CRY OUT YOUR NAME AND EVERYTHING FEELS SO EMPTY BECAUSE YOUR NOT HERE. I HOPE YOUR IN HEAVEN AND ENJOYING YOUR TIME BECAUSE I KNOW ONE DAY WE WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN.
LOVE MOMMY

Peanut was a great friend.
She always made us laugh and made us feel better when we had a bad day.

You are loved so much little Peanut, and you will be greatly missed.
We will never forget you!

Love Always,

Jess, Shawn, and Gus

My Peanut, you are the best dog in the whole world.
My life is empty without you.
I look for you everytime I come home, everytime I wake up.
The love I have for you could only compare to the love you gave back to all of us.
I will never forget you.
I will love you forever.
And I will run to greet you at the Rainbow Bridge.
All my love, forever, Mommy

my beautiful Peanut...its been 3 years now and I still miss you as much as ever. You were the best cat I ever had and I was so lucky that you came to me as a stray and entrusted me into your heart. I love you so much and will NEVER forget you - love your adoptive mum, Marina XX

Peanut was a lovable and great dog. He was like my son. HE was shy but he was still a protecter. I will miss him dearly, and I always will. He was
sickly so now God can make him better. I will always love him!

Susan Algiere

Peanut was taken from this world as a result of tainted cat food.
She did not suffer - her end was quick.
Her passing was so unexpected, there was no time to prepare.
She was a beautiful Tortie of enormous proportions - 28 pounds at her passing.
She has left gigantic holes in the hearts of those who loved her, but she waits for us at the Rainbow Bridge.
Peanut, keep an eye out for your cousins, Tiddy Tat and Cricket Ann - they have now joined you at the Bridge and could use your steady and loving presence.
Bless you "pee pot"...

Cindy Tucker

My brave, sweet, wonderful Heart Bunny, who lived with head tilt for over a year and charmed everyone she met. In the end her spirit was bound by a broken and tired body, and in love, we set her free. She will be greatly missed by her human family and her bunny buddy Rex.

Emily Poole

Peanut you are a beautiful soul, I found you on father's day and you brought endless joy into our world. You were a wonderful friend and companion, my heart is empty without you here, the house is silent without the sound of your purring... but I know that someday I will see you. I love you and miss you,

Robin Pariso

My baby Peanut. I will miss you everyday for the rest of my life. You cared for me, watched over me, stood by me through thick and thin. You were my angel here on Earth. I hope I did not fail you in anyway. I love you more than you will ever know. Thank you for all your love and constant kisses. Mumma loves you my sweet little angel kitty in Heaven.

Holly Cresswell

Joseph Silverwolf

My precious baby girl, Mommie misses you so very much. I can't belive you are gone from me.
I am so lonesome for you especially at bedtime, I miss you snuggled up to me like you did for 13 years.
I hoped and prayed that we would have a couple of more years together especially with me getting ready to retire.
But I guess the Lord was ready to bring you home to be with your Daddy.
I have so many wonderful memories of you.
You were the best "Puplet I could ever have. I loved every single thing about you.
You were my friend and confidant.
Things are just not the same without you.
Always remember I love you and watch for me at the Bridge!
Kiss Kiss.

Charisse Diffey

To the most special pet a person could ever have.
We went through so very much together and she knew me as no other did. She was so smart and so much company and so entertaining. She was so protective.
She helped me through so many bad times.
I cannot stand the thought of each day beginning without her.
We connected from the day I met her, it is as if I could read her mind and she mine.
I love her dearly and miss her so very much.
I feel as if I have a huge hole in my heart.
I cannot belive she is gone, I keep thinking I will wake up and it will be a bad dream.
She is all I think about.
I wish she could read my mind now and know how I feel, how I wish I could hold her and love her and take care of her for many years to come. I hope she is safe and understands I would never have left her/ let her go if I had any control over this.
Peanut please forgive me! I love you and miss you so much!

CV Diffey

PEANUT, YOU WILL FOREVER BE IN OUR HEARTS

Josie and Tommy

Life with be hard without my daily kiss at 6:30 in the morning so that we could get the newspaper together, that was always are start, you had more love than any dog I know, always looked at me with those big brown eyes to say "I love you".
Life just isn't the same anymore.

Diane

My heart is torn in pieces..you were and always will be my baby.
I will never feel the happiness I felt when you were here with me....a huge part of me has died with you. I don't know if i will ever stop crying...you are in my heart for eternity...I miss you and love you more than you can know.

Donna Cartagena

Peanut was a rescue along with four other ratties. He was a kind and loving soul who really loved our attention and a little belly rub. He had a personality that could not be denied. He would shake his head and hop up and down on all fours if we just petted him and placed him back in his cage. He was the runt of the group, but he didn't let that stop him from establishing who he was as an individual and he took on the world around him with no fear. He grew to be such a beautiful Boy. His vision grew less and less over time, but that didn't slow him down. He showed us so much love and was such a comedian that he will be sorely missed. I am so thankful that we were blessed to know you for the short time we did. You and Muffin are so missed and there is a big hole inside of us. We will see you soon Peanut boy...we love you.

Tom and Laura

Our dear sweet little Peanut/Mrs. P, it has been a litle over a week since we had to say goodbye to you and the pain is still so raw. You were such a wonderful, loving, best friend to all of us and our home feels so empty without you. Your spirit was very strong but your poor sick and elderly body was just giving out on you.
You had so many health problems but you just kept hanging on for us. You were our little "Energizer Bunny". We were told 2 years ago this month that you maybe had 6 months to live from being diagnosed with a lung mass.
There were a few times we thought it was going to be the end but you hung in there. We never even though you would make it to the birth of our twins- Jenna and Kaylee in December but you did and even when you didn't feel well you would snuggle up to them on the bed whenever you had the chance. It had been such a long time since you were able to do all the things that you loved to do such as: go for long walks and throw your shoulder into anything stinky or gross that was on the sidewalk, curl up in your favorite bed and bask in the sunlight, chew your bone while sitting next to Mom or Dad, trying to steal food off an unsuspecting guest, raiding Mom and Dad's Easter basket on the dining room table one year, playing hide and seek in the house with Mom. I really do hope you are up at the Rainbow Bridge romping and playing with all the other beloved pets and that someday we meet again.
It is hard for me to think that that is possible for right now I just feel like you are gone.
I think of you every moment I am awake, I see you in every corner of our house, I ache for you, I visit your ashes in our office often, and I think about you as I go to sleep as you are not curled up between us on the pillows or at our feet as you were for 11 1/2 years of your life.
Be well sweet P, our Mrs. Peepers. Daddy and I miss you so much and hope that we all meet again one day in Heaven. I am hoping you are with Pops and he is taking care of you. Just know you were the best dog there every was, the love you gave us was endless. I always said you were my little angel sent down from heaven and I guess it was time for you to go back home.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Jenna and Kaylee, and Baby Girl

Peanut, you are and always will be a big part of our family. Peanut you are still my powder puff.. ;) We love you and miss you termendously.

Gigi, John, Susan and Eileen Harrington

Peanut was a loyal companion, friend and family member.He joins his other family animal members in doggie heaven and is now at peace from all his health problems and pain and suffering. There comes a time when we must stop being selfish in keeping them alive because of not wanting to have them absent in out everyday lives. Though it is so very hard, we can keep the fond memories of them and focus on those and find comfort in the knowing they are at peace and would "thank us" for not making them continue suffering.

You were much loved Peanut and will remain in fond memories in my heart and all who shared you.
I Love You
Richard

Peanut was a scrawny little 5 pound red pound who made sure I'd find him on petfinder.com and bring him home with us. He was about 18 at the time and had been found wandering the streets alone that week. Peanut was very thin, with hardly any fur and rotten teeth. We took him right to the vet who cleaned, and pulled, some teeth. In a few months Peanut had put on some weight and grown a gorgeous thick pomeranian coat, just in time for winter. One thing we could not fix was the bad arthritis in his neck--he could never full lift his head up, but would tilt it to the side to see you. Peanut would always do #2 outside, but wore a malewrap indoors for peeing (he never got the hang of going outside for that). He actually seemed to love wearing the diaper and would stand spreadeagle to have a new one put on! Oh how he loved to run through our woods too. He might trip over a stick here or there, but he just got right back up and kept on running. After a year together I was bathing him in the sink and found a large black mass on his gums. It was cancer. The vet said he was too old for chemo, but we could cut it out and give him extra time. Which we did! Little Peanut was right back out in the woods, the first day after surgery, like nothing had happened. He got 7 extra happy months from 2 surgeries, but could not have a third. This time the cancer had drilled a hole through the rough of his mouth to his nasal passages, and there was no way to fix that. The mouth fluids and food were getting into his nose, making little bubbles and causing breathing problems. So we had to let him go to the Bridge last May. I wanted to write a tribute to him now. Peanut was a senior pom who loved life, never complained, and gave me one of the best 18 months of my life by sharing himself with me. Peanut was a true treasure and I hope he will look after his housemate, Dandy, who passed away Tuesday May 29 of this week, 2007.

Hannah McCullough & John Gilbert

My husband rescued our beloved kitty 15yrs. ago while working at an oil refinery in Louisana.When they evacuated the area due to the threat of Hurricane Andrew,he came home with him to Pensacola,Fl.I'll admit, I wasn't exactly thrilled about him bringing home this "cat",having always been a dog person & never having owned a cat before,I had the impression as I know so many other devoted dog owners have,that cats aren't as loveable,or they're snobs,or don't seem happy to see you when you've been gone all day,etc.etc.But,I couldn't have been more wrong.First having laid eyes on him I fell madly in love at first sight.He was told to us by a friend,to be a "Bullseye tabby",when she pointed out the perfectly symetrical circles on both sides of his belly.We weren't sure exactly what to name him when another friend of ours from Boston in her true Bostoian accent,sugessted we name him "Togget".We looked at her somewhat confused & said Togget?,yeah,she said, motioning her hands in cirles,you know,Togget.It was then we all laughed because we realized she was saying "Target"(describing the circles on both sides of his belly).So it was,we named him Target.But as with most loved ones we come up with nicknames,mine for him became "Peanut" & my husband lovingly called him "Fatboy",due to his healthy appetite,& like my husband,his gradual expanding middle.As for cats not having personalities,nothing could be further from the truth & each one is so unique.I've had the priveledge of knowing several cats over the last 15yrs.& each one was & is so special. As for my beloved "Peanut",he became ill last Nov. & in Dec.had exploritory surgery when he was diagnosed with a condition known as "inflammatory bowel disorder".It's a condition I had feared ,when I had earlier gone on the internet to research his symptoms,but I was hopeful because they said it could be treated by inserting a tube into the stomach through which he had to be fed,along with numerous medications.I can't began to describe how scared I was at having to do this,but this was a family member,& we would have done whatever was necessary.Well,after 5mos. of this,& weekly visits to the vet,he decided he'd had enough & suddenly one evening began to eat on his own again.I was elated,because our Vet had pretty much told us his prognosis wasn't good as he had gone from a healthy 11 lbs. to barely 5 lbs.So, after a week of him eating on his own,we had his feeding tube removed & it was as if he had been reborn.He even began to beg for food,& was so happy to go outside & chase lizards a explore in the garden.His favorite treat was fresh fish,so whenever any was caught or bought,my husband we would watch & laugh as his beloved "Fatboy" would do the dance as my husband would tantilize him with his favorite treat.My husband loved their special bond.Target,had always loved to snuggle very close,& he would go back & forth between us every night,he had his own way of snuggling with each of us.He would be snuggled up close to me & when the alarm clock would ring for my husband to get up for work,he would nearly propell himself from my side of the bed,jump on my husand,& lay down to keep him from getting up,I'll admit,making my husband late on a few occasions...try explaing that to a boss!Well for a couple of weeks,he seemed to gradually be improving,althouh his weight had increased very little his appetite was ravensous & he genuinally seemed happy again.But as suddenly as his illness had come on,he began to go downhill rapidly,after only 31/2 weeks,his condition had totally deteriated,& he lost the battle on Sat.May 12th 2007. My husband made him a beautiful caskette,& we filled it with his favorite bowl,balnket & a photo of us,& he was laid to rest on the property on which he had spent most of his life & had brought us such love & happiness.We know it's only been a few days,but the pain is almost unbearable at times.Having no children of my own,he was the reciepient of all my maternal instincts,& loosing him has left me broken hearted.We will never forget how he touched our lives & we will forever miss him.Our only solice is knowing someday we will be reunited.Thank You for the oppotunity to pay tribute to our beloved pet.I am so glad I found this site. Sincerely,Lane & Walker Anderson

Peanut was a twin, when he was born his mom decided to ditch him and keep his little sister. So I became his momma by the time he was 10 minuets old. I raised him in my yard and living room. He took about 6 bottles a day and I even had to wash his face and his behind and burp him. I dressed him like he was a baby. He was not only our Bull but he was my best friend, he knew when he saw me that I would have something for him and he would come running with his big ears flapping in the wind. I always thout of dumbo when I saw him run. He was nothing more than a big baby. I would take people out in the pasture in my car and when I saw him coming I would roll their wimdow down and he would stick his entire head in the window, LIKE WHATS UP and slobber all over them. The neighbors moved in and brought a mean bull and the 2 did not get along with each other and after a few fights that we were able to break up, sat's fight was more than could be handled and Peanut ended uup with 2 broken legs and had to be put down. I will never forget him and have a lot of picktures to remind of all the fun we had. Watching tv, going for a ride in my van among others. I have placed a large white cross by the ffence
as a memorial. I love you PEANUT and I MISS YOU terribly.

Debbie Bass

Peanut was a sweet little stray I was trying to rescue.
She was not doing well and today she died in my arms while the vet was trying to draw blood for testing.
She also allowed me to pet her for the first time today and responded to that with some enthusiasm...
an hour later she was gone.

V. L. Wall

My Dearest Baby Peanut,
You gave so freely of yourself to mom and dad for all these years. You are our soul mate, our friend, our companion and most of all, our precious "Baby Girl". We miss you so very much baby...Thank you for your most precious love...until we meet again little one,
Love forever and ever, Mom & Dad

Thanks for your tricks, bringing us anything - but a ball, friendship, companionship, walks, rides in the car, reminding us that it was time for a treat or a rat in the wood pile, and keeping our feet warm at night.
We will always remember the smile on your face and the look of understanding.
You will always be in our hearts.

Skip, Kim, & Kacie Cooper

The love of our lives. Peanut leaves a great hole in our hearts. I pray that we can somehow overcome the great pain and grief we both feel at the loss of our beloved Peanut. We will always love you baby girl.

Beverly & Steve Olson

You gave so much and asked so little.
When the time came to go we knew, Alex, and you and I, that we would meet again.
Be happy and free and know that you are loved!

Rebecca and Alex Sandifer

Peanut lead a very long and fulfilled life.
This last year has been a little rough, but I am very blessed to have had her every minute of every day that we were together.
She will always be in my heart and I look forward to the day that we will be together again.
She was truly a faithful companion and we had a bond that could never be replaced. She was my soulmate.

Cindy Chilcoat

Peanut was the sweetest little dog.
He loved me, my husband, and our three sons.
He was a fierce protector, a fabulous playmate, and a fine footwarmer...even if it was only one foot at a time.
He will be loved amd remembered forever, and it breaks our hearts to say goodbye.

Laurie Black

Peanut was a very special little dog with lots of love to give.
Peanut was very good at taking care of bottle kittens; loving them and protecting them and keeping them from getting into trouble.
She was a good dog and will be missed.
Until we meet again over the Rainbow Bridge....

Your loving family, Laura, Tommy, Ryan and Jim

Although it has only been hours, I feel such a loss for you. You have been so brave since you were a little puppy and after being on kidney IV'S and tons of tests, we found out that you had Addisons disease and were able to help you with a shot every month. You outlived what they thought you would. You made it 14 years with us, but yet that did not seem long enough. My heart breaks every time I think of you, but yet for the pain you were in the last hours I am happy you are free of it. You were so brave and as I got to hold you in my arms as you went to sleep was very comforting. I will always love you and think about you every day!! I hope you see Grandma & Grandpa in heaven and enjoy the other puppies and animals there. I know they will love you as much as we do. I Love you peanut!!

Sharon

Peanut was a one of a kind dog. I have had him over ten years. He was always like my best friend and my protector. He was special enough that until I had my son he slept in bed with me. He will be missed deeply.

Shauna Johnson

Peanut we love you.
You are always with us.
We miss you!
My little peanut I love you.

Debbie Carney

Dear Peanut, I held you in my arms on the afternoon of your birthday. At that time you crossed over to the rainbow bridge.
You brought our family so much joy and happiness over the past 16 years. All of us will hold you close in our hearts forever and for always.
We will meeet up with you when it is our turn to cross the rainbow bridge. You will be deeply missed.
God bless you. All my love, mom, dad, Alan and Jane too.

I loved my dog very much and I will always miss her and she will always be in my heart. I know she is in a better place and one day we will be reunited and be together forever

Hunter

Peanut, our beloved family member, hunting dog, cat playmate, vet assistant, and co-pilot will be sorely missed by our family. May we see him at the Rainbow Bridge.

Melanie Geurtsen

My Precious Peanut ~ Gone, but never will you be forgotten. Years of your love and friendship, I will cherish always. Cross the bridge safely, you are at peace now. Rest for now, we'll play later ~ Until we are together again - I'll bring the catnip, I promise. Thank you Peanut for being there for me always ~ my pillow, my pilar ~ my Best Friend

Darcy

She was a bright spot in our lives and the lives of our relatives and friends.

Rita Crispino

Peanut was the most loving kitty that I have ever known. I found him on the side of the road on father's day in 1998. I brought him home for my husband. He was my pillow buddy and protector when my husband was at work. He made our world a much happier and special place with him. His fur family misses him dearly. His tenderness and unconditional love with stay with us until we can be together again. Peanut we love you and miss you.

Robin Pariso

When we picked our Peanut out from her brothers and sisters ,she was the only one that was the dark in color and shy . She never bit or snapped at anyone no matter if she was eating or sleeping . My kids and grandkids loved he dearly as I did. She got sick this past summer with diabetes and she went blind . I did the insulin shots ect.. But this month she got worse and today I had to take her to the Vet. and had her put to sleep . She was my rocking chair buddy after everyone went to bed at 8:30 pm . I love and I miss her so much .

Kim Bakke

It has been a little over one year since we lost our much loved Peanuts.
He was an intricate and constant member of our family.
His loss affected us deeply.

Peanuts firmly believed that we could speak cat.
He was always communicating his desires in a very vocal manner.
Apparently, we did understand him, but just didn't realize it at the time.
Whenever, we gave him what he appeared to be asking for, it seemed to satisfy him.

He was a sweet, loving and much needed companion for almost 18 years. We miss him very much.

Evelyn Hancock

My Little Nut Nut who was always there for me and who would never leave my side, I don't know what I'm going to do without you. Going to bed without having you cuddled up to me is going to be heartbreaking.
You were the bravest little dog around.
You had the big dogs doing what you wanted them to do.
You also could outsmart any dog or human.
I can't believe you're gone but I know you are with the rest of all our beloved little animals that had to leave before you.
I know they were waiting for you to come and join in the play and start barking at them so they will do want you want.
Little Nut Nut I love you.

Elsie Hirsch

We met "Lady" Pearl at PetSmart in July 2003, after our puppy graduated Puppy Class.
The local animal shelter had rescued her.
She was a sweet, underweight, albino guinea pig; and she joined our family that day!
She unexpectedly crossed the Rainbow Bridge one March morning in 2006.
We miss her very much.

Karen, Jim, & Sarah

Pearl was my little angel. She came to us from a rescue shelter and was a little skittish at first, but soon warmed up to us. Her cage mates, Ping and Pong, will miss her too. She was very old, but I still wasn't ready for her to go. I miss her so much! She was my sweet little angel.

Sharon and William Anderson

I only had 7 months with Pearl but she brought me a lifetime of joy and love. I am so privileged to have known her.

Kristin Deluca

My cat Pearl was the very best friend anyone could ever want for.I rescued her about 8 years ago and it has been love since day one.I truly love her with all my heart and will miss her very much.I feel like my whole world has fallen apart since she has gone.I just want to say I Love You Pearl and wiil never forget all you have done for me through thick and thin and I want to Thank You for that.

Mara

I adopted her on December 7th 1998 from a kill shelter where she was hours away from being put down. She was so appreciative to being rescued but she was very abused and always shy, but loving. She was quiet in her demeanor and I can never recall her being agressive. She was always just happy to eat her food and drink her water. I tried to give her the very best and most peaceful life that she deserved. Yes she was a lady and a true blue friend. The world is a little less brighter without her kindness. My heart is broken, but I will weep for her and she will wait for me at the rainbow bridge.

Barry Goodman

Hope you're resting peacefully and are playing with Shadow. I miss you very much.

Betty

Pebbles, you were born to spend your life with me.
And you fulfilled my life so unbelievably so.
You made me laugh, and now I cry for I cannot imagine filling the hole I have in my heart.

There will always be an emptiness and it will be there to always remind me of you.
I know I will see you again one day.

I love you mon amour.

Pebbles was a beatiful little girl who gave so much and asked for so little. She was loving and playful and always happy to see you, or go with you to visit others. We feel she is in a better place now just waiting for us to come to her again someday, and we will. We love you Pebbles and miss you dearly.

Mom and Dad

You will always be in our hearts...

Jessenia & Justin

We miss our baby girl. Pebbles, Rocky is looking for you.
He runs the entire house looking for you.

You have left a big hole in our lives.
Memories of you are sweet just as you were.
We look forward to seeing you again...
You will always be in our hearts...we will never forget you...

Gary and Karen Farris

Pebbles was brought to me at 4 weeks old, eyes still closed and had to be fed by an eyedropper.She has been a part of my life for 13 years and I was present when they put her to sleep. She had cancer and heart problems and I could not stand to see her suffer anymore. I held her head and she just looked at me as if to say thank you and went to sleep.
She will be truly and sadly missed.

Barbara Withers and Patty Phillips

She was a fun buddy to be around,This was my moms companion and we miss her already. She will be missed by many.

We will miss you forever.

Lisa Piccarello and Ed Stratton

Yesterday, 11/27/2007, Jackie and I had to make a decision we will forever struggle with. Yesterday we said goodbye to the Pecan.

The Pecan came into our lives in November of 1996. Gin-Gin (Jackie's cat) had passed away that summer and Jackie and I had gotten engaged in October. On a trip out to visit Jackie's cousins we stopped by the Little Shelter, an animal rescue in Huntington, LI. On the way I warned Jackie that we couldn’t just “stop in to look”. We know how we are. Well, we went for a visit and stopped by the kitten room. That’s when our lives changed again.

Like an extended gift, a re-affirmation of our engagement, we met three great little ones who enriched our lives. First was the Princess. She practically tripped me, ran up the ladders and through the cubbies and shelves until she was eye level with me, where she silent meowed, stepped off the shelf so I had to catch her, ran up my arm and purred into my neck. I was spoken for.

Jackie was playing with all the little ones but one stood out. He was distracted by his buddy, Gizmo, running around and playing, he would come over to Jackie and then be drawn back into playing with his buddy. You knew there was a bond, a connection. That’s why everyone there but me was surprised when Jackie thought it better to take Pecan’s brother, Peanut. I know Jackie, how much she cares, loves and nurtures. Peanut was sickly and the thought was maybe he’d have a chance in a loving home with care and attention. At the shelter he wasn’t expected to do well or be a top adoption candidate, just because he was sickly.

We took them home and tried our best. Peanut had the oldest eyes for a kitten, he would sit with us on the couch (often on my shoulder) watching the Princess run around the apartment like he was above it all. He was old beyond his years and seemed to really enjoy the craziness of the kitten in front of him.

After we lost the Peanut, we went back and got the Pecan. It was meant to be and he was waiting for us. We all tried to give his brother the best chance and now it was Pecan’s turn. Everything was right. The Three Musketeers in the biggest studio apartment you’ll ever see, with D’Artagnon (me) coming by as often as possible. The team was together. Pecan and Princess running throughout the place all night sliding around on linoleum and wood floors. Chasing balls bounced off the walls. All four of us crammed in a twin bed watching football on Sundays. Eating scrambled eggs for breakfast and having spaghetti or London broil for dinner.

They were so cute. Pecan was the Big Love, a Big Mush. Always there with a purr a headbutt and love. Kneading into our heads and necks until we almost bled, but it was great. He didn’t want anything more than to give love to whomever he could. I have never met a cat with a better personality. He was just so happy, all the time, just to be with us.

When we moved into our current place, he played the big brother protector and shielded the Princess. They had only known the studio for just over a year and now they had all this change. We kept them in a comforter on the couch in the living room after the move where they snuggled together and Pecan laid in front, towards the outside, protecting the Princess from any harm. When it finally came time to get off the couch, that everything was OK, Princess was the one to do it and Pecan reverted to form, the big mush. The studio was mostly linoleum and wood floors, the apartment was wall to wall carpet. He was scared by the carpet. I have still never seen a cat tap and step so tentatively.

Once he conquered the carpet, we had the ceiling fan monster for a time. He wouldn’t come into the dining room when the fan was on. We finally beat that together.

Then we just settled into the years of love. And struggle. When the Pecan would again do what he always did. Love. He nursed us through so much. He let us take in Scruffy, the stray. Princess always had a problem with her, but the Pecan was OK with it. She needed love. He helped us through bad times. He gave us all the love and companionship we could have asked for when we lost our son Sean. He knew, and was there without us even looking for him. Through both of our operations, he soothed us. Sleeping with us, by our heads, his purring and breathing, helping us heal.

Then everything went wrong this past summer. He lost weight and, after trips to the vet and the Animal Hospital, we found out in August he had lymphoma. We tried. We fought for him like he loved for us. For three months, three great, tough, months, the Three Musketeers fought. Me, Jackie and the Pecan. First with oral chemo pills. Then IV chemotherapy when the oral therapy didn’t yield the results we were hoping for. God we tried. Then, last week, he turned bad again. This time it was pancreatitis. Again, we tried. And then we talked. Pecan was, is, about the Love. About us and home. Maybe he could have had more time if we admitted him for a few days in the hospital. Maybe if we put in a feeding tube. But he was already not really himself.

Pecan was always the Big Guy, a strong powerful cat who carried himself like he was on the Serengeti, even if his personality was anything but lion-like. Now he was thin, even bony in spots. And, even though he loved to sleep, he took after his dad that way, he pretty much only slept now. If he were to have his last days, they’d be where he loved, with those he loved, not in a hospital with tubes and strangers.

We had a really good Sunday morning. Pecan woke us up like it was last year. He jumped up on the bed. Purring loud. Head butting Jackie and I and kneading and grooving into her hair like he was never sick. A feline Barry White. But then, later that day, he was sick again. Not eating. Sleeping in the dark, looking for closets and dark places under beds.

Pecan isn’t about dark places and quiet. Pecan is about bright shining love and loud purrs and yells. He said goodbye Sunday morning. It took us two days to be able to do the same.

Our house will never feel the same. It’s missing a big part of the glue which made it our home. The King of the Bed, the King of the Chair. We have been spoiled, yes. 18 years for Mandy and 23 for Gin-Gin. 11 years for Pecan was not enough. Not even close. He should not have had to make up the average, pay for their long life. I like to tell myself he just burned out. He shined too bright and gave all that he had. I keep telling myself that.

Last night we put the Pecan to sleep. I miss my big guy.

To my good girl:

I remember like it was yesterday when you come in to my life....you were so cute, playful and full of life, today you’re in heaven.... I open my eyes every morning hoping to see your beautiful face one more time, to feel your paw on my leg and your nose rubbing my hand…. My good girl, many beautiful years together, you were always there with your unconditional love, coming home after a long day of work was rewarding…

“The decision “ was right for your body but it will never be for my heart.

I believe that you are now pain free and that you’re very happy reunited with Polo

Thank you for your love and beautiful memories that you left engraved in my heart, you’ll always be in my prayers, and you’ll always be in my thoughts ………..

A dream yet to come true……..

LOVE YOU FOREVER 5/12/07

Miriam

Pecos, thank you for your love and friendship over the last 15 years. Barney, Lizzie, Beau and Mummy love you. I will see you at the Bridge and until then you are always in my heart.

Fran

Pedro, we will miss your happy, beautiful face. You found a place in our hearts and memories of you will be with us always.
Love, Carco and Grandpa

We love you, Pete. We are so sorry this had to happen. We miss you and cry for you every day. Know how much we love you and can't wait to see you again, our beautiful boy.

Allison and Jennifer

We miss you and LOVE YOU...God, Ernie, and my Dad have you...I know they are passing you around kissing and hugging you.
We love you Pe Pe boy.

Shellie , Alice, and Donnie

Felicia Lindsay

My tears will not stop, he has been my best friend for over 8 years.
I adopted him when he was 8 and very sick with heart worms.

He has been a little hero.
But now he is tired and looks at me with sad eyes.

I will miss him more than I can express.

Brooke Benton

I love you peewee.
You were the light of my life and I miss you deeply.

Jennifer Preston

Pee Wee was my son.
Thank you for the words on this website, they have and will help me enormously.
Pee was the only person who was always happy to see me and I had grown to know his facial expressions (yes!), what his barks meant and most importantly, how he felt in my arms.
He was my Sunny Su, my bunny bear, my boy. He loved me in the best way possible.
I took great care of him and loved that little guy like nobodys business.
This is killing me. I mean really killing me.

Jennifer Newsom

Our Best Buddy, who died too soon! We love and will miss you Peetie!!!

Jessica, Jeff, Jacob and Caleb Finch

Dearest Pee Wee....It has been almost 3 days since you crossed Rainbow Bridge and I have finally mustered up the strength to say my last good-bye to you.That first night without you was so hard... not having your little head and paw laying on my hand while you licked me and purred yourself to sleep.The next morning was even harder because this big house was so empty without your presence...you were not there performing your morning rituals.We will never understand why you had to leave us at such a young age but the doctor said you probably had a heart defect from birth and that there was nothing that could be done...You know that your mom and me did all that we could to keep you with us but there was nothing more that we could do.Seeing you like you were just broke our hearts.After you crossed Rainbow Bridge we talked about adopting another kitty to fill the void your leaving left in our hearts and home.At first we didn't think we could do it as we didn't ever want to go thru this kind of pain again...But then we asked ourselves...What would you want us to do and the answer was clear. We knew that because of your kind and unselfish ways that you would want us to fill the void that your leaving created with another kitty that needed a place to call home. The day after you crossed Rainbow Bridge we went to the Humane Society and we found Ali...Ali is so much like you...she is loving ,funny and cute...she loves to play and is so much like you in every way.Ali has already helped us start the healing process and we know that will make you happy. We will never forget YOU Pee Wee...You will always hold a SPECIAL place in our hearts...You brought us soooo much happiness and joy.We MISS YOU, WE LOVE YOU and we will NEVER forget you!!! Chowder and Sassy miss you also... they don't understand anymore than we do...Please in your own way, help them to understand and help them to accept Ali also.Good bye my little Pee Wee. Love, Dad, Mom and your sisters.

Peeper was a wonderful cat. She was my friend and my baby. She was there for me during tragedy in y life and always gave me love.
I tried to give her a good home and show her love.
She meant the world to me and will be deeply missed. I love you Peeper.

Tracey Adams

You left us too soon! I'm sorry I didn't see your illness sooner! You are missed every day. We all loved you so much. I look forward to the day we are together again!

Angela

all the gold in the world couldnt have bought you
all the gold in the world cant bring you back

nothing and noone can fill the hole in my heart
i try to patch the pieces but they fall apart

there isnt a price i wouldnt pay
to see your smile one more day

i cherish our time and all of my memories
since youve been gone my pain hasnt eased

i felt something stronger than any drug
what i wouldnt give for one of your hugs

to feel your touch and see the love in your eyes
it would bring back my joy and i wouldnt have to cry

in memory of peewee(papas little man)

Roby Farmer

MY BABY GIRL YOUR BROTHER DINKY IS LOOKIG FOR YOU FIND HIM LOVE YOU TWO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER I MISS YOU BOTH FOR EVER MY LOVES. MOMMY

PeeWee was the best friend I have had in a long time. I loved him and I know he loved me.
He is greatly missed.
For a little dog, his heart was huge.

Diana Day

He was my baby boy. Caiques are the Red Skelton's of the parrot world and he sure lived up to that reputation. He filled our lives with joy, fun and was always there to lend his opinion. He would play on his back on the bottom of the cage and then go jump on his springy toy. he was on the go most of the time. He was beautiful. The deep green, the white belly, the orange and yellow of his head. He was sent by God to us. we loved him and miss him terribly. He was family in every sense of the word. He contracted some type of fungal disease that no amount of medicine could help. I feel cheated and many tears have fallen for him. He lives in my heart. Lord please watch over him till I can see him once more. As I write this my tears fall.

Barry E. Sullins

For seventeen years he was the most loyal, loving and unique friend I've ever known.
I've never been closer to anyone or anything than I was to PeeWee. A very small dog, no more than three pounds, had a big, loving heart and an extremely strong will to live. Many injuries and illnesses weren't enough to stop him, he overcame every single one of them.
Until one day he passed peacefully and quietly in his sleep right next to me in my bed, where he kept me company every night for so many years... I'll miss him as long as I live, but I know I'll see him again someday.
I love you PeeWee... the warmth you left in my heart will never go cold.

Adam

For Peggy, who came into our lives as a feral cat last year and was put to sleep after succumbing to the dreadful virus, Panleucopenia. Bella, your sleeping partner, misses you as we all do. Out of pain now, and with Bitsy and Dillon.

Carol Bell

Peggy

God Bless you. We love you very much and always will. You were a special little dog, and you will always be our number one girl. Looking forward to meeting you again. We love you. Night night. xxxxxx

Catherine Watts

Pekoe, my sweet baby girl I love you.
You have left 17 years of tender paw prints and memories in and on my heart that will last a lifetime.
I will miss giving you nose rubs and you giving me sweet rough kisses. You were a one of a kind furbaby, one that preferred to sit on my shoulder like a bird when carried and one that rode in the car riding behind my head looking out the window at the world like a dog except you would be meowing in my ear about my driving :-) .

Have fun playing (and munching) in the beautiful green grass with Itty Bitty and Meja.
Will always love you all
Mama

My little girl was my heart, she was my sole! Pekoe. I love you, please keep safe and thinking of you everyday. I miss you so much my little girl.

John Freeman

Pele was my spirit guide in dog form. She accompanied me through many life journeys that I don't think I could have gone through without her. She walked with me from being a lonely young man to 13 years later when I had the family of my dreams. She joined me the month I left college and she died the week my daughter was getting ready for kindergarden. She helped me cross this long and difficult passage and made it fun, sweet, and loving. She was an angel on earth. Thank you Spirit for this dear friend.

Ray Pealer

Pele J Girl Dog, Mankle, Mamagirl, Snaggletooth dog- you are so missed.
The house feels empty without you.
But mostly I feel empty without you.
There is a big hole in my heart.
Thank you for being so much to me for our almost 14 years together. You truly were the best doggie ever.
I hope you are gorging on steak tartare and playing fetch and hanging out with all your old pals.
I can't wait to be with you again.
Love, Mom

Peluso siempre estaras en nuestro corazon, llegaste a nuestras vidas como un pequeño regalo que fue creciendo junto con nosotros,donde quiera que tu espiritu se encuentre no olvides que siempre te vamos a amar y jamas olvidarte...

Mariana

PenPen,

You were a precious baby to us and you will be greatly missed.
But I know that you are running your circles around Momma, Jesus and all the little children in heaven who need you to look after them.
We love and we'll see you again someday.

Your family.

My dear sweet Penelope, how so you were loved.
You made my day with that beautiful little face and the way that you knew that i was your mommy.
I will never forget you my sweet baby girl.
I am so sorry that the accident happened i should have never let you out, but i know that it was your time and that you are where your suppose to be.
Be good and take care of my lacey girl up there at the rainbow bridge.
We will meet again and start where we left off.
I love you baby girl and I always will, your picture is on my mantel and in my heart... Your Mommy

Our precious Penni Pup. We will miss you always. We love you.

Ernie, Jennifer, Dakota, Zoe

My dear Penni you are sorely missed by Cissy, Oreo and myself. You were such a faithful and loving companion that you can never be replaced.
I miss your sweet little face and your greeting when ever I would come home if only gone for five minutes.
I know you are in a better place out of pain and frolicing in the fields with Ciara and Kujo and keeping grandma company, who always loved you. You will always be in my heart forever and never forgotten.
You will alway be my special little friend.

Janet Hempelman

My Precious Princess Sunshine

The most beautiful girl in the world.
And, the sweetest.
God, how I miss you.
You are my Sunshine, my only Sunshine.

For those who love as we love, there is no parting.
Only eternal union.
We are bound forever in love.

Wait for me at the Bridge, Sue Sue.
I'll be there as soon as the Lord allows.

Teresa

Penny was the most awesome dog.
Before she was good, she was bad.
She chewed up the binding of our dictionary and our wedding album.
Later, she saved our toddler son from running into the street by grabbing the hood of his sweatshirt.
Penny lived for 15 years, and in the last year she lost her hearing, most of her sight, and became lame in her back legs.
Even so, she loved her walks, even to the end.
I took her on a final walk before we went to the vet.
She had to rest in the grass, but she was happy.
We all miss our beloved Penny 3 weeks later.

Jody

Penny was a very special friend to a very special and important person in my life. I wasnt able to say goodbye to her and tell her how much she meant to me. I hadnt known her long, but she will always hold a special place in my heart.

She will not be alone at Rainbow Bridge, I know my Dog, Tasha , will be there for her. Until we can all be together again! xxx

Anon

Penny was a wonderful little dog who lived to please her family. She was full of energy and loved to run and bark. Ginger and Penny were great friends and they loved to play together. Penny will be in our hearts forever.

Penny was a precious 'little lady', a comfort in times of trouble and stress, a sister to George and Gingie, a tireless companion, and the best bed warmer in the world.
She left us much too soon.
Our family will never be the same without her.
I love you "little".
Wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge.

Mary Tudyk

We didn't get to spend enough time with you but what time we did we chairshed. We got you from the pound the day you were suppose to go to sleep.You and the others were so sick. At first I had my doubts that you would even make it. But you did. You had some slight vision problems but that never slowed you down and no one could really have told. You was just the sweetest little girl. We don't know exactly what happen to you. It was like you just disapeared. We searched and searched and even waited for you to come home. But you didn't. Penny, we don't know what happen but we are so sorry for whatever it was. If perhaps you are out there we wish we could find you. But if you have crossed Rainbow Bridge which is what we feel in our hearts because we know you wouldn't wander off please know that we love and miss you. You are a very special girl and I'm so glad you didn't go in that pound and that you did know love and happiness. It hurts so bad to have you gone and we are so sorry you didn't get to grow up here with us and the rest of the family. But like the rest you too will always be in our hearts and minds and have your place beneath the tree. Until we meet again. We love and miss you.
Love,
Mommy, Sissy's & Baby Aly

We know your in a better place and no longer in pain, but still our hearts are broken and we will miss her greatly.

Tim and Cathy Glass

Penny,

You are our sunshine.
We think about you everyday.
I know you are around us.
We wish you were still here.
You provided alot of entertainment for us.
You are in our hearts.
I miss holding and kissing you.
We love you, Sis.

penny was a sweet loving rabbit who i'll never forget and she'll live in my heart forever.

Our beloved Penny was a kind, gentle, and loyal dog. She changed so many peoples views of her breed. She slept in our bed every night and gave us kisses daily. She lost her battle to kidney disease associated with Lyme. God bless her.

Kelly and Harry

My Penny, you were such a good girl, such a pretty girl. After more than 10 years, we knew what each other wanted with just a look or a certain gesture. It was just you and me. We were buds. I feel so alone and lost without you. Sometimes the grieving is so intense I can't breathe. I miss you so. Tomorrow you will have been gone for two weeks. As noon approaches, the time that you left, will I become as apprehensive as I did last Sunday? What a special girl you were. I have begun a journal of letters that I write to you to help me through this process. I miss you, girl. I love you so much. My heart is full of you and breaks. I look forward to that time when thoughts of you only make me smile and maybe just shed a tear. I love you.

Gayle

So many years you were there for me.
It was so hard to let you go, but there is something I want you to know.
I still feel that last breath you took in my palm.
At that moment, the emptiness I felt was filled with the love and trust you had for me.
I will always love you and know we will be together again for eternity!

Bonnie really misses you, but does not quite understand yet.

Jonette

My sweet loving Penny.
Always by my side, never leaving me alone.

Hrag Kopooshian

Even though it's been a month since you passed penny. I still find myself crying and missing you. I know the last year was hard on you, but you always wagged your tail in the mornings. But your in a better place my loyal friend, someday I will join you. And we can run and walk forever. Love you penny my sweet dog____From Daddy.

We will miss you little Diva Kitty. You were a constant in an uncertain world.

Vreedenburgh Family

My precious Penny died one week ago today. We did not know that you had a bad heart. Your Mommy and Daddy are still in shock.
Even the doctors at the emergency clinic could not heal you. Life just drained out of you. Please know how much we loved you and will miss you forever. I pray that we will meet again one day at the rainbow bridge. Keep Sammie company up there, too.

Barbara Varaksa

i will always love you, you were my true special friend,i know i will see you again someday,love Mom.

Our dear dog Penny passed away after having Chronic Active Hepatitis. She was diagnosed 6 years ago and had been in remission since. 3 weeks ago she got sick again and was hospitalized. We had her another 3 weeks and pampered and loved her until her last breath. She was a wonderful, smart, loving dog and she will be missed tremendously. Some people just dont understand the love we had for our dog but she was one of the kids. I know she is running around and chasing squirrels, birds and playing with her companion Jamie who died 10 years. Rest in peace "Petey"!

Gail Karnes

Penny came into our lives as a rescue dog, we saw her but she found us.
She was timid & shy, afraid of humans but learned to love all things in life.
Penny brought us so much love, laughter & comfort.
She only had a short time here on earth but each day was lived to the fullest.
Rick & I miss you baby girl.
We will see you one day at the Rainbow Bridge

Gail Counts

Love you Pen, miss you loads xxx

Philippa

To my loyal companion,
You will always be in my heart. I miss you my friend.

Hannah

In loving memory of Penny:
Our baby, our gorgeous girl we'll miss you so much!
The world's best snuggler, all 86 pounds of you.
Mama will never forget the great runs we had on the 4 wheeler;
you were the most awesome runner.
Run with the angels every day, baby!
We know you're at peace and waiting for us on the other side with no pain and only love in your thoughts.
In spite of mistakes made we know the love between us goes on forever.
You're with your sister Rudi now, so we know you won't be too lonely until we see you.
Penny, Mama will treasure the precious memories and keep you in her heart always and forever.
You were the best baby we ever had.
Rest in peace, beautiful baby.
With all our love,
Mama and Dad

Penny was a member of the family who will always be missed.

Doris, Bob, Amanda and Amy

She was such a good dog-- from keeping me safe when I came home to an empty house as a young preteen, to running or walking with me throughout high school, to greeting me as if no time had passed at all when I came back home from college and graduate school.
Penny was wonderful, and she will be remembered and missed.

Lauren

Almost seventeen years of companionship and love.
Thank you for getting me through the tough times.
You are greatly missed.

Andrea Scott

Penny has been a part of my life for so long that it's hard to think of a world without her in it. She was the best darn dog that I've ever had or ever will have. She was my best friend.

God bless you sweet angel.

William Tolbirt

Beloved pet of LeeAnne and Brad. You made us into a family. I will always love you, Mum.

My sweet kitty Penny used to climb under the covers in my bed,in the morning I would wake up and look her right in the eye's,She was covered up to her little shoulders and laying on the pillow just like us human's do,my kitty was old but she was happy and grateful I was her mom and gave her a good home,she used to wash my hair every night like I was her little baby she was very pushy when it came to my other animal's she let them know she was boss even when no animal's were around she growled just to be sure any one was hiding knew she was "The"boss and not to be messed with!She was sensitive and a deep thinker and she will always be missed........Thanks, Judyann

Someone to comfort. to dry up your tears, Someone to be there, to quiet your fears.

A campanion, a pal, a very best friend, Someone to trust and to love 'til the end.
Thank you Penny.

Kaczynski Family

I LOVE YOU MY SWEET ANGEL, AND I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU.
I WILL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RAINBOW BRIDGE. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.
LOVE FOREVER,
YOUR MOMMY

Penny, you will always be our little girl.
Everywhere I went you were right there.
If I washed clothes, you washed clothes, If I did dishes you did dishes.
We will always remember how you loved to play with the frisbee.
You always had to show us your toy when we came home.
You loved us to splash you when we were in the hot tub.
When we would be playing and you would be jumping up and down and barking.
I'm sure the squirrels will miss you too, even though you just barked at them.
I know you had fun running up and down the fence chasing them.
You were the most loving, gentle and special friend anyone could have.
All of the family will miss you dearly, especially Mom and Dad.
We will always LOVE YOU!!!

Richard and Diana Holt

penny was in our family for 5 and a half years and i will never forget her i wish she was here with me right now.

Lindsey

Penny Lane, beloved bassett hound, "you're in my ears and in my eyes" always.
Thank you for picking ME at the animal shelter.
I will forever remember my birthday dog.
I love and miss your silly ways, short legs, long, soft ears, dragging belly,soulful eyes,ferocity with the stuffed animals and facination with food.
You will always be my Copper Penny.
Our two years together were too short.
I love you, Natalie

What can I say about Penny.
She was my best friend, my constant companion, and I still can't believe she's gone. She was so smart, and
she saved my Mom when she was recovering from hip surgery. You were with us such a short time, but what a lasting impression you made.
You left so quickly, with a hole I'm not sure will ever be filled.
Everything reminds me of you.
I miss you so much.

Joyce, Jim and Grandmom

Penny you are the sweetest little angel. We will never forget you, and feel your presence here with us even now.

Mike and Janay Larson

Penny will be missed by all her family. She was the friendliest, cutest, funniest and most loving dog around. I know she is no longer suffering and will lead a happy life in heaven with her best friend Sasha.

Gina Nieto

My dog Penny lived with our family for 10 years and has been with me through it all. I had to put her to sleep today because of Cushing disease. She was always so loving and loyal and only would be lively when I walked into the room even though she was hurting. My last moments with her I could not leave her while she was being put to sleep and know that with complet trust she was able to leave because she knew I would do what was best for her. I miss her desperately. She was yappy but if I could hear her bark one last time it would be wonderful

Kiatcha Nyquist

You taught it what it meant to earn love... there will never be another so stubborn as you.
We will never forget you - Mom & Dad

My dear, dear buddy.
Such a good boy.
When you get to Heaven, please find your brother, Mateo and be his friend and together you can play in the meadow until you see me at the Rainbow Bridge.

Patricia

Our darling little boy was a ray of sunshine in our lives.
He loved to snuggle under your chin and would go back and forth from my husband to me for loves all night long when we were watching TV.
He accidentally ate something that got stuck in his throat and died from choking while my husband was trying to get it out.
We will miss him more than words can say.

Deb Skup

I rescued Pepe from a shelter as a senior dog.
He had some health issues, and I was there for him with his health issues.
I had him for three years.
He died with me naturally.

Rosemary

He was my first actual pet as an adult. My husband loved him as much as I did, if not more. He was a happy kitty who was loved very much, and therefore was very spoiled.
He will be sorely missed.

Karla Fletcher

To a dear little soul who we lost,he will always be in our hearts and souls foreverx

Pauline Georgina and John Evans

Rose Mary and Carl Militig

It's been almost 5 months and I still miss you so much. Every single day. You were a part of me. A part of my heart. A part of my life. Nothing is the same without you. I wish I could see you, I wish I could hug you one more time.

Marisa Tortolini

You were with us for 16 short days. You were a joy to have around and that meant we wanted you with us wherever we went, which led to the mistake that ended up taking your life. I am sooooo sorry that that happened. I never got to see you grow into a cat from a little kitten. You will be in our hearts always and I do hope you will forgive me.

Karla & Randy Fletcher

To my beloved little dog. I'm so sorry that you had to suffer in your last days. You were sunshine to my life and I will miss you. I'm so blessed to have had you in my life for this past year.

Gina M Cantu

PEPE WAS MY HEART AND BEST FRIEND. WHEN HE DIED HE TOOK WITH HIM A PIECE OF MY HEART. I WILL FOREVER REMEMBER PEPE FOR ALL THE LOVE AND DEVOTION HE GAVE ME. GOOD BYE PEPE AND STAY MY SWEET BOY. I LOVE YOU FOREVER!!
PEPE'S MOMMY

Pepe, you were my once in a lifetime dog.
My first showdog, but most of all my best best friend.
I have had other pets that I loved dearly, and I still love your Pom family, but the bond I had with you was special, unique, timeless.
I knew you were meant to be mine from the tender age of 2 days, when I chose you as a keeper, before you could even walk or open those soft brown eyes.
Two years later and I still cry for you, my gentle little soul.
Other dogs will surely always share my life and live in my heart, but there is a special place that I hope they understand belongs exclusively, devotedly to you alone.
Your soft beauty, cuddly ways, playful spirit and gentle always loving soul touched me so deeply.
I miss you still and always....

Malinna

Mommie will love you forever.

My most beautiful furry soul mate, my best friend, today I received your ashes, they are so cold compared to how warm your heart was,I never wanted you to go but I had to help you be free from pain. I will met you again when it is my time and that will sustain me for now. Now I must travel alone because you are no longer with me, The hardest trial of my life was to say goodbye so soon, so unexpectedly because one minute you were meeting me home from work and then you became so sick so suddenly. I will love you forever,you will be always with me in my heart and thoughts, till we meet again my baby,May God look after you for me.

Cathy Branch-Smith

Pepito,
Our home has felt empty since you uexpectedly passed away. I miss having your little body next to me at night in bed.
You slept between Daddy and I every night and it's hard not seeing your little sweet face every morning when we open our eyes. I know you are in Heaven and your vision has been restored and you are a ball of energy again.
Don't worry, I will see you again.
My angel baby!! We all love you and miss you!!

Valerie King

I miss you so much my little man, you were my first rescue and we all loved you so much, you came for cuddles,came in the kitchen for your snacks, loved all your girls but your wife was Truffles you adored her. By now she will be with you cuddling as you used to and she would have given you the kiss from me. I wish you were still here Peps, never have another quite like you, but you were old and tired so you had to leave us. God bless my little man.

Val Marshall

"MY BEST FRIEND"

Frederick Wright

A special Christmas greeting to our special girl.
I know you are waiting for us at "Rainbow Bridge" but this Christmas is hard.
Your bone is under the tree but it just not the same without you this year and mom misses you very much.

Love you my Pepper.

Dan & Coke Burdick

My darling angel, I hope this finds you romping and rolling in the grass with Baby by your side. You unselfishly spent your entire life our family and protected us and our home. All for which we are grateful. But more importantly, you loved us when we weren't lovable. You grieved with me when my Mom died but yet you were the strong one and licked my tears away and laid that beautiful head of yours on my lap. You watched the kids grow up and again, you never left my side because you knew it was hard for me to let go. That is why you stayed as long as you did. Yes, my heart is broken and may never be repaired from this hurt of being without you. But you have taught me that I am stronger than I think I am at times and I know we will be together again one day. Thank you for changing my life, for growing old with me, and the lessons you have taught me. I love you my friend, my little boy, my guide in all ways.
Love,
Mommy

Our Little Pepper lived 15 1/2 beautiful years. She was all about loving us as a family. Growing up with our children and bonding with everyone she met. She loved to lick, lick, lick and lick some more. Always gentle, never hostile, always loving and wanting to be loved and had that German ferver as Dauschunds do.. She became extra animated when her (mom) my wife Cheryl came home or walked in the room.She slept with our Son and daughter when they were growing up and on occasion with us as well. She loved to have her belly rubbed. She was that way until the very end of her life.I had at least 25 different names for her, (depending on what she was doing at the time!) We miss her very much and are taking this very hard, but know she is in good hands with God. Please say a prayer for our little Pepper as we shall say one for all of you.

God Bless our Animals.....

Love, Joel & Cheryl Montgomery

My baby, Pepper. My sweet little girl. I will miss you so much. You always comforted me when I cried, but now you are gone. You were the best little dog. I know you loved me and mama. You always let the whole neighborhood know when we came home. It is so hard coming home now without you here to greet us. I miss you so much already. You will always be in my heart baby. I love you girl. <3 <3 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Jacki

Pepper was my best friend and companion for the past 15 years , through good times and bad.
He loved me no matter what and I him.
You were a wonderful friend who will never be forgotten.
I Love you, Pepper.

Love,

Mom

I never knew unconditional love till i met her...now my loss is big. She loved me the unconditonally i wish i could of done more. Run fast and free my good girl.

Walter

Pepper was such a funny cat that I swear in her past life she must have been a human. She always understood what I told her and made little sounds letting me know that she was listening. When I cried she would paw my face to let me know that she there with me. She was diagnosed with mammory cancer 9 months ago. She was very healthly and we figured she lived a happy life and the doctor told us if we operate theres a chance the cancer will still spread. So we left it in gods hands. Around 2 weeks ago she started coughing really bad. We took her to the vet and they told us the cancer spread to her lungs and throat. I was devastated, I cried so much. She passed on her own on September 25, 2007. I happened to be out of town on business that day. I think she didnt want me to see her go. My mom buried her in our backyard and I set a rose there for her when I got home. She was there for me thru it all and we had a wonderful 10 years together and I will never forget her , she suffered so much in the end. I love you Pepper always and forever................ YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

Dina

Every moment I spent with you was filled with joy, wonder and love my sweet girl, my Pee Pie Pepper.
You brought me love and companionship so sweet. I will never forget you my special girl. Egg Binding is so devastating and I am so sorry that you left this world so soon. My hope is that God, in His mercy, will allow us to meet again in another place....somewher over the rainbow bridge...all my love! Momma

My best friend for 19 years. You will be missed terribly. I will keep you close to my heart forever. I hope you are pain free and happy again.
I love you Bud!

Daphne Lockmanese

Pepper,
We so miss your little chirping and your presence.
For being so tiny, you were a delight to all of us.
Thank you for allowing us to share your life.
We miss you! mom, dad, heather and faith

She was my best friend for many years. She had cancer and I had to put her to sleep, that was the hardest thing I have ever done. I know she is better off and I will see her again. She will always be in my heart and my best friend.

Amanda Bond

Pepper was our precious friend

Tamara and Gary

My baby girl. I miss you so much. You crossed the Rainbow Bridge just one week ago. The home we shared is now empty. I miss seeing your beautiful face. I miss hearing you bark at the cookie jar. You did love your treats. We shared 14 wonderful years together. I wanted more. I know you are in a better place with your buddies...Sister Maxie, Cousin Goldie & Bandit. I hope you made some new friends too. Sleep well my baby girl. Till we meet again. I love you so much.

Sue

Our Pepper had the most amazing smile. It is hard to believe that we won't see it again.
She was so happy when she had her stomach rubbed. She had a wonderful disposition growing up with a little boy jumping and pulling at her. She had to make room in her little world for other animals, cats and another dog, wanting to share the love and attention she was used to getting. A more devoted and loving pet would be hard to find. Pepper we love you and miss you. There is a hollow space in our hearts that will be hard to fill.

Modene Piccolino, Jordan Daigle, Tracy Gaudette

She was my perfect, princess, Pretty Pepper.

Dana L Reynolds

Pepper gave us 11 years of happiness. We never left her alone more than 6 hrs at a time. She had been abused at a very young age and we rescued her when she was still a puppy. Her lower jaw was broken and shorter than her upper jaw, her tail broken in 3 places, she walked crooked at times.

I got pnemonia 4 years ago and when I was released from the hospital I was so weak I could not get out of bed for 3 days. Pepper would not leave me out of her sight and stayed with me every moment. She really loved to go for rides in my truck. She was mad when my wife would go with us, then she had to sit in the middle and not sit next to the window like a human. Well you think I am crazy but she really was human.
We would take her to a park with a leash and she would tense up and not move look at me and I could see her say-what do you think I am a dog? We took her leash off and she would walk right next to us and never wonder.

We loved her so much. She was the smartest dog I have ever seen. I am at a loss for words as I can go on forever telling you how we would not go on vacation without her, to actually buying a travel trailer just so she could go with us. I would call my wife on a daily basis and ask her how "my little girl" is. It hurts us very deeply. She went so fast and sudden and we never imagined what life would be like without her. It hurts a lot. We love you Pepper and always will.

Mom and Dad

Pepper was faithful, loving and protective.
She was my shadow and will be greatly missed.

Dawn Done

Dear Peppie,
I had to say goodbye to you yesterday, my devoted little man. You were my best buddy and my life's cheer, always. Your surgery did not go well, rendering you incapable of improving, so I had to make the painful but 'kind' decision. You knew I was there holding you as your beautiful eyes closed. I am so sorry, Peppie, and I miss you desperately.
Look for your sisters in heaven, and I'll see you again someday, my wee friend.
I love you,
Mom

Although she was just barely there, especially when she had no hair, so large she was in love and things, the only missing thing was wings, now she can fly, as angels do, in doggie heaven, she watches true, to keep us safe and free from harm, our "Pepper" dear, brought home in arm's....

Belinda Tournour

Pepper was my faithful companion.
She followed me every place I went, always had to be touching me when we slept and loved me unconditionally.
She had such a personality.
She would bark at animals on the TV, knew what several words meant, she was just a joy to have.
It was a shock to lose her and I can't wait to see her across the Rainbow Bridge.

Cathy

PEPPER YOU WERE MY FIRST DOG EVER, AND YOU MADE SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE.
I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL TO YOU.
YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY.
YOU ALWAYS KNEW HOW TO BRIGHTEN MY DAY. I MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU.
REST IN PEACE, AND I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN!!!

Eva

My littlest and best friend ever

Kari

My Baby Pepper - RIP my dear girl...I will see you at the Rainbow's Bridge.
I know that you are playing as a puppy again, free of pain, diabetes, arthritis and cataracts...I miss you and love you!!!

Alice Anne Roberts

Pepper,
You know that you will be greatly missed and loved for as long as we all live. Finally letting you go was the hardest decision any of us will ever make but we did it because we knew that it would end your suffering and you would return to your adorable, loving self. We will never forget you and we will think of you everyday with kind memories of the happiness that you brought to us all. I hope that you are having fun now and we will see you once again I promise you. We love you so much.

Danielle Aucoin, Susan Aucoin, Michael Aucoin, Marybeth Aucoin

My dear sweet Pepper. Today, you left for a better place where you can sit in the sun, take your lazy naps or chase butterflies -- all whenever you want. You will also be reunited with your loving friend, Charlie. I hope and pray that he is standing there to welcome you to Heaven where he has lived for many years now. Perhaps you two can take long walks along a river like you used to, or swim together in your kiddie pool. While i am devastated at having lost you, I take great comfort in knowing in you're back with your buddy, and so close to our God. It is I who am now truly alone, but do not worry for you will always flourish in my heart. I will always love you! You were a dear and faithful friend to me for so, so many years. I cherish my last days with you, especially when you were bundled up and I sat with you and read inspirational stories with you. I will never forget you my Pepper, Peppercorn, Pepperoni, Pupperoni, my Pepperly-Poo. Run, play, have a great time and most of all, know that you are with our Heavenly Father now and I love you forevermore.
Kisses, sweetie.
- Your Mom Shirley Reyna

My sweet, silly girl was with us for over 16 years.
She had the most beautiful feathery tail, and long silky fur, and she was my best friend growing up. I never got to say goodbye to her before she left for the Rainbow Bridge, but I tell her every day how much I love her, and how I will always miss her cute, smiling doggy face.

Gina Longo

PEPPER, my beloved little l2-pound black and tan wire-haired dachshund, and her brother, SAGE, were the lights of my life.
March 26, 2007 that light went out when SAGE followed his sister over the rainbow bridge.
She had passed earlier on August 20, 2005. My life will never be so wonderful as it was when these little Maui Mutts with flower leis around their necks walked beside me in the sands of Maui or in the pineapple fields. PEPPER lived with heart failure for two years before her heart attack.
SAGE lived wth heart failure for over four years before passing on with sudden kidney failure induced by anesthesia and treating his heart condition.
My own heart is forever with these two gifts from heaven.
And they rest peacefully in my garden overlooking the pineapple fields and the blue Pacific forever.
God be with you, my Little Sweethearts, until we meet again.

Diana Delbrook

I have not forgotten you Pepper. KC and I have missed you every day since you went to the 'Ranbow Bridge". KC is with you now, and I will see you both soon.
I LOVE YOU PEPPER!!!

Cris Anderson

You were my best friend and were always there for me when I needed you. I miss you so much. I never got to say goodbye to you properly and I'm sorry. I wish
I was there with you at the end; I should've been there. Please forgive me. I love you and will always treasure the time we had together, I wish it could've been longer. I hope, in time, to see you at the rainbow bridge and we can be reunited. Until that time comes I hope you will visit me from time to time. I feel that it is my fault and that I didn't do enough. I hope you don't feel that way as well. I did what I thought would be best. I didn't want you to suffer, it was hard to see you as you were I couldn't stand it anymore. I hope it wasn't too soon. I'm so confused, I need to know that what I did was right I need a sign. I will miss you and love you always. Goodbye.

Brett Keefer

I ask for my only love to remember me always, but not to grieve for me too long...it is painful for me think that even in death, I should cause him pain. Let him remember that while no little girl (he always referred to me as his little girl) has ever had a happier life and I owe this to his love and care for me. He always let me be me. He would spend days, weeks and months diligently and patiently teaching me new tricks. When I learned the tricks, he was so proud and that made me feel so special. I was special. That's the way he molded me and I am eternally grateful for that.

I am now gone. I didn't want to leave, but my heart gave way. It was quick and it was fast. Just a few seconds of intense pain. I was aware that my only love was beside me...touching me...that gave me comfort before my final seconds.

However, during the last week of my life, I had said my good-byes to my only love the only way I knew how...I knew...I also knew that I didn't want to become sick and be a burden on myself or to the one who loves me. It will be sorrow to leave him, but not sorrow to die. We do not fear death as people do. We accept it as part of life, not something alien and terrible which destroys life. But peace, at last, is certain and a long rest in an eternal sleep in the earth that I have loved so well. Even in death, my only love prepared me for this. Perhaps, after all, this is best.

Pepper was the most loving and best behaved dog anyone could have. She loved to go camping with us and was a loyal companion to me and my husband for 15 years.

Theresa Osborne

Our hearts wept when you could no longer go on.
Without your sister you lost purpose.
We love you eternally.
Crossover peacfully.
Love,
Mommy & Daddy

For my Pepper, I have loved you for so long, you have been there for me through everything. I am sorry I had to send you home, but it was the least I could do for you afetr everything you have done for me. I couldnt bear to see you suffer. I am sure Toby is waiting there for you and you two take care of eachother until I can come do it myself. I love you and miss you so much. You were the light of my life. Goodbye, for now, Nickilini

Pepper,
We love you and miss you so much. Our hearts are broken and the tears seem to have no end. You were the one who could always make us smile, without even trying. Your unconditional love was unending. We hope you are in a peaceful place and in time we will all be together again in Heaven. Till then baby boy we will try to make do with all the wonderful memories you provided. Thank you for coming into our lives.

Love, Mom, Dad, Kelly, & Kerry

Good bye to our little lady, you come into our home and hearts only for a short 5 years after having such a sad life. We hope that the love and kindness we gave you
helped to erase some of the bad times of your life. You brought sunshine to our life's and melted our hearts with your kisses. It took you so long to trust us enough to share those kisses, but once you did they never stopped.
We will miss your snuggles and greetings at the door when we come home. I will miss our quiet times in front of the TV or Fireplace with you there on my lap watching our favorite shows. I know you are in a much better place, I know that Taz will be there to greet you and introduce you to KC. You will once again run and play with Taz as I know how much you missed him. We will miss you, Rowdy and Sassy already miss you and you have only been gone a few hours. Last night Rowdy laid down in your bed by the fireplace and wouldn't leave it, I think he knew. I am so sorry that I was not there in those final hours, If I had known when I left you with the Dr that I would not get to see you this morning I would have taken you home. We love you so much and will see you again on the other side of the bridge, I know Dad will miss your nose kisses the most so save them up for him.
Good bye sweet girl
Mom,Dad, Rowdy, Sassy

I truly believe you never know when the best things will come along,when they do it is wonderful.My mom and i loved to go to bird shows too see all the beautiful birds.They were having a drawing for a beautiful Patagonian Conure and I used my last $5.00 for tickets and to my suprise i won you.I fell in love with you immediately only 12 weeks old.I taught you how to say Hello,Bye-Bye,Tried other words,but you never said anything else,no matter i still loved you.When mom moved in with us her birds joined our flock too,at first you were jealous,but you Gradually came around and made friends.When mom passed away all 3 of you were a great sorce of comfort too me.Chikin was Greencheek conure and Mo was a cockatiel i grew to love them too,Chikin got her name by her cute action of scratching the bottom of her cage so cute,Mo got his name by fluffing up his crest whenever he got excited.I miss you so much no more morning calls.I am so sorry for what happened that what hurts the most is knowing it was me who caused all 3 of you to die.I knew the dangers of a self cleaning oven.I had put you're cages out on the porch and would put all of you in sleeping cages at night inside.I forgot you were still inside you were all so quite that morning covered up in the living room.I didnt think when i turned on the cleaning cycle.I feel like i murdered you it hurts so very bad knowing that, everyone says it just an accident,but it doesn't feel that way.I know mom was there to welcome you all,along with Shiloh,Harry Larry and Rowdy I love and miss you all so much.Much Kisses and Love Sandra

A beautiful, sweet, smart little girl with a lot of love in her heart. She is sorely missed, and will never be forgotten.

David N. Cohen

To the world's greatist dog, Pepper. I love you so much-you were the best dog ever. You loved to play ball, and fetch sticks, and ride in the car, and you especially loved going camping-that way we all slept on the ground together. I am so grateful to you for all the love you gave me over our 14 years together-I am going to miss you so much.

Debby Reber

Pepper Girl came into my life when she was ten weeks old and was a blessing to me every day.
She was a dear friend, my protector and so very special.
Pepper Girl is missed more than words can express.
I know she is running and playing and pain free now, but will the hole my heart ever heal?
I loved her so!

Kimberly Carter

Dear Pepper,

I love you,

Lin

Ps Alex does not know that you die I could tell him I just told him that you fell in love and decided to move out with your new wife what else can I said to him? the true was too much to bare.

Pepper,

Good-bye for now, my precious little satin doll.
You will always be my best friend and I don't know how I'll make it without you. I am just so thankful for the time I had you.
You will now always be my little Angel Girl.

Love always,

Your Human Mommy,
Vicki

We will miss our sweet Pepper who gave us 14 years of puppy love!

Dick, Gail, Carl, Allison and Lauren Case

There isn't a day that I don't miss you, Pepper. It's hard to believe you're gone over 3 months already. Now I'm getting ready to retire, the time I so looked forward to spending with you. But.... you're not going to be here then.
I know you're in a better place, and that you're not suffering anymore. Your tombstone will be coming soon and like the verse on it, I wish I could walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. You have no idea how lost I am without you!

Pat

I hope you know how much we will miss you, but we find comfort in knowing that you are playing once again with your buddies Pappy and Chico.

Tammie Perryman

To my lovely Ezmereldy. I held onto you as long as I could without causing you pain. My heart breaks everyday for the hole that is now in our lives. I will go to our special waterfall pond & the pond behind home where you loved to swim. I received your cremated remains today and still can't believe that you are gone. I thank God that it all happened quickly in the end & that you felt no pain. I wanted so badly to hang onto you longer. But you knew better than I that it was time for you to move on. I wish we could've went swimming one last time. You silly, silly dorg, you still are my sexy cow & always will be.

You we're with me through tears & laughter. You let me hold you tight when dad & I divorced & I would cry. Everyone that met you just loved you. Remember Diane wanting to take you home for keeps? Silly gal. You find Natia & Ladd, all the rescue animals & all the animals that have touched my life. You will be welcome into a beautiful & silly group of animals. Wait for me there Hagness, I will see you one day. Then there will be no more tears, pain, loss of hearing & sight and no more firecrackers or loud thunder either. I love you Pepper Sue with all my heart. You we're in my life for 17 years... but it feels like only 2 now that you have moved on. Gad MUST have a place for animals. If not than I want nothing to do with a God like that. I will miss you until I see you again. Run, play, roll, swim & be silly. Enjoy yourself my sweet Pepper Sue, you have earned it. My love always.......MOM

For our little Pepper, you left us much too soon. We love you and will miss you terribly.
You made us laugh and added so much to our lives.
Be happy at the bridge until we meet again, go and see Beau and Kobi and Dixie and we will be with you again one day.
All our love, Joe, Tammy, and Danny

Pepper was our little boy.
Full of energy.
He never hurt anything or anyone.
Then one day he became weak & ill.
Our little boy lost so much weight.
My heart still crys for him to this day. Please meet me when I come....

Michael

My beautiful Peppermint,

For fifteen years I was blessed with having you as my pet and friend. It is hard to imagine my life without you. Words can't describe how much I miss you. I love her so very much. You'll always be in my heart. I know I'll see you again one day. I love you always.

Tyne Termaat

Peppermint Patty

Rest in Peace, Patty.
You were just like a peppermint patty candy - black and white and so, so sweet.
You were gentle and loving.
You will always be loved and missed and remembered.

Susan, Mary, Gail, and HH

Peppi became the child we never had.
He was a sweet, gentle dog with a wonderful personality.
He used his eyes to get us to understand when something was really important to him.
We loved him dearly and will miss him more than words can say.
Peppi's personality fit perfect in our family and we are so glad that the Lord allowed us to have him for fifteen years.
But Lord, that was just not enough time.

Frank and Joretta Hayes

To My Beloved Peppie,

You were such a wonder and pleasure to have had around. You always had a smile for everyone or anyone. You loved life and living and you fought until to the end. You gave all those around you a reason to be happy with the unconditional love you gave. The wind will now be forever blowing on your face and I know how much you loved that. You will forever be in our hearts and memories. I especially will not ever forget you for as long as I have breath left in me. Thank you Peppie for sharing a wonderful life with us. You were like a son to me and a beautiful son that is in your own especial ways.

love and memories forever,
your mommy

We fought so hard for your life here, but, we'll meet again when I come for you to cross the Rainbow Bridge, my big Ebony Boy, love you always and you are never forgotten.

Lynne Ratliff

Thank you Peppy for allowing us the honor of sharing our lives with you. You taught us much. We miss you very much, we will never forget you and will always love you. You are always in our hearts. Until we meet again my beautiful, precious baby girl cat...
Molly Cat misses you too and is searching for you to have a game of chase.

Mr and Mrs Peters

I miss you peppy and I will always love you forever. You will still be in my heart.

Peppy you were my best friend. I owned many dogs but none like you. I miss you my little boy. I love you and you will always be with me.

Crystal

Peppy came from the pound with attitude. After obeidence training he was better prepared for the world. He loved hiking (my partner ), camping, fishing,going for rides and yes even canoe rides. He was a great man of a dog and we will be reunited on the other side. Thanks for being such a wonderful friend and companion. Love, Pam

Peppy,
You left us so young, and we still don't understand why. I miss your "Hellos" in the morning. We loved you, and always will.

Cindi Roberts

Dearest Pepsi, you came into our lives when you were 9 years old. We spent 4 years together and you were such a blessing. Rest in peace old friend and we will be together again one day. You are our special, sweet "Bon Chen". with all of our love.

Beth Kernus

Pepsi I miss you so much. I know your watching over me and your now in heaven. You were a mommy's boy. You followed me everywhere I went and I miss that. You would have been a year old this year but I lost you a month before your birthday. We had a good time together. My heart breaks for you. I love you so much!
love, Mommy

A best friend, a miracle bunny--you are in our hearts & memories forever.

Pepy was our Angel sent to us from God so that we would love and care for him because he was terminal illness when we took him into our home from being left to die on the streets. He lived for three years when in actual fact he was only given weeks to live when we found him. Such a very special little boy so loving and understanding. The morning he died in my arms I felt that our lives had been taken from us my husband Vijay was devastated , he had a very special bond with Pepyboy.We will always love you Pepyboy our Angel from God.We will meet again some day and hold you in our arms again as we hold you in our hearts Your Dad and Mum.WE SO MISS YOU ANGEL FROM GOD.XXXXXX

My baby boy, Tes. We met almost 15 years ago. I was working at the hospital and you were a ferrel cat living under the maintenance trailer. Your diet consisted of bugs. We started sharing my dinner every night. You were always scared of me - but were glad to see me because you knew you'd get food. Then one day I come to work and there you were: in a cat carrier waiting for me to take you home. You were so little and so scared. But I took you home and integrated you with my other cat. We all fell in love with you (well - Precious tolerated you).

With your white and black face and little black nose - you glowed in the dark. The way you would pick things up with your paws - like they were hands. And your purr - it was so loud it would fill up the room.

You were such a fighter. When they told us you had diabetes and hyperthyroidism 4.5 years ago - we thought your life was over. But you proved us wrong. We gave you your insulin shots and pills twice a day - everyday - on time. You were such a strong cat. You came from the streets and enriched my life beyond words. I'm sorry I couldn't save you from the blood clot that took your life.

I know you are at Rainbow Bridge. You don't need insulin anymore, or pills. You can walk and run and play. Although I wish you were here by my side, I know I'll see you again someday. Until then, know that you will always be in my heart. I will NEVER forget the joy, love and laughter you provided.

I love you, Tes. I will miss you forever.

Heather & Mark Kirkland

Percy was a truly outstanding cat in every way and I have been privileged to have known and shared a house with one of God's finest creatures.
We had a special bond which in my experience is quite unique. He had been a long term resident at the RSPCA rescue centre and had been overlooked as he was a very shy, withdrawn and sad looking cat.
Within seconds of meeting we seemed to click straight away. Underneath his sad exterior there was just something special about him. I felt drawn to him. I had decided to adopt him in less than a minute and collected him a week later.
I could not have made a better choice. We hit it off straight away and within days of coming home he was transformed into a most handsome and magnificent young cat. From then we got along splendidly and enjoyed the most wonderful relationship.

He was a true and loyal friend, a trusted companion and a constant source of joy, comfort and inspiration. He was very much loved by me and is very greatly missed.
RIP dear Percy. Till we meet again.

David Fell

Truly one of Gods angels, we will miss you perc

Amy, Matt

Percy and I met in a moment of fate at the Memphis animal shelter when I was there picking up another cat that I had rescued.
He had just been dumped there by a horrible back yard breeder.
He was covered in feces, ringworm, sores all over his body and hardly able to breathe through his tiny nose with an upper respiratory infection.
Despite being a persian, he was headed directly for euthansia. I had to beg, cajole and use every connection I had just to be allowed to get him out of there.
The road to recovery was a long one, but the love he exuded paid me back so many times over that I can only feel honored to have been the one to find him.
I absolutely cannot imagine life without him.
He purred constantly and simply had a joy of being alive.
I can't count the number of cat haters that he converted.
He loved with no ego or selfishness and everyone he met couldn't help but to love him back.
The girls at his vet's office gave him Valentines cards, spoke to him in French, and whenever he was boarded he was constantly in someone's arms.
They cried along with me as his polycystic kidney disease progressed.

When I came home last night to find him in so much pain that he was hissing for the first time in his entire life, and headed to the emergency center with him, three girlfriends rushed to be there with him and me.
He was surrounded by love when he gently passed away.
His was the best soul that I have ever met.

Jill Thorsen

our first fur baby, because of you, our home was filled with kitten, puppies and love. You will be missed terribly, we lost our bedmate.

Leslie and Mike Doyle

The most loving and faithful friend. She didn't know she wasn't human. Changed my life.I will love her forever, and cant wait to see her at the Rainbow Bridge.

Percy the lovable fur ball.
Will be missed by his Father "Snow Wolf", his nephew "Monty", his step brothers, "Odie" and "Zeke".
His owners "Bob and Paula Ortendahl", and his Vet family "The Duncans" in Nixa, Missouri.
Percy was the fetch cat, just loced playing the came with Bob, often dropping a toy on Bob's chest in bed.
Percy was very instrumental in bring Bob to better health, after Bob had Open Heart Surgery.
Percy had many Friends. "God Bless"

The day we found him, I knew he would be my favorite of the other six, even though I try not to pick favorites. He would lick my chin, purr for me, talk to me, and knead on my butt when we watched movies on my parents' bed. I love him more than any human, and I miss him so much I almost want to die so I can join him in Heaven, but I know I can't. I know God killed him as punishment for me breaking a promise I made to God and myself because Nicky died the day after I broke the promise. I miss him 200% and I love him 300%.

Alicia Rose Spurlock

Pester has been a wonderful pal.
He was a gift to me from my husband (who was a boyfriend at the time) more than 20 years ago.
In his younger years Pester was a real fire-cracker to say the least.
His last year or 2 have been difficult watching a cat with such life, age like he did.
He was in Kidney failure, and spent time on kidney dialisis over the Summer, but god blessed us and gave us an extra few months.
The whole family was here with him and when he passed away, and we all wished him a safe journey, and sent kisses along with him for himself and pets that have gone before him.

As I greive today, I know in my heart that him being out of the body that took away so much from him is a real good thing, but even in his old age "his golden years" he was still the Pester from long ago, only trapped in a body that aged long before he was ready for it to age.

Pester your still my little old man, no matter what.
I miss you so much and it's only been a day.
I'm glad you've finally found your way to heaven, and I hope that you and Indigo are both know how much we love and miss you both.
Be free old man, you've had a long and good life and deserve the best heaven has to offer.
Leeanne

Pete was the most lovable, sweet dog ever. He followed me around like a shadow. I don't know how I will ever get over the loss. My heart is broken. I long for the day when I can hold him in my arms again. He was so loved by all.

Colleen Chenworth

Farewell to my friend and companion

Pete was a wonderful companion.
He lived almost 14 1/2 years.
He had issues and was seeing a holistic vet.
I don't know how long he had.
I took him to the beach with the other dogs today.
He couldn't come down to the beach because he couldn't take the steps anymore.
I always left him up by the pool and he'd stand and watch for us to come back up.
Today he fell in the pool when no one was there.
He never did that before.
My friends found him, he may have hit his head because he could still swim pretty well.
In a way, it's better this way because I couldn't tell how comfortable he was.
In the long run, he had a good weekend, was feeling good and passed at a place he enjoyed being.
He's not in pain anymore but it's not too easy to accept that right now.
I loved him dearly, he was a sweet, sweet boy that will live in my heart forever.
I wish everyone could have met him, he was a joy, even when he was old and stiff.
He is survived by our other 2 dogs, Tule and Lulu.

Jane Tutton

Only Pete could give us memories we will forever carry with us. Thanks Pete.

Mitchell, Chris, Joe

We will forever miss our "little man" Mr. Peterman.
Pete was the most incredible pup that I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with.
His life was cut way to short by an unfortunate brain tumor but in his time on earth, he loved so unconditionally, that he lit up everyone's life that was lucky enough to meet him and get licked by his over-sized tongue.
Pete is in heaven now and we will see our friend again.

Ann Marie & Ryan Boldrick

He was the perfect dog for me--smart, athletic, fun-loving, loyal, self-contained, peculiar.
I couldn't be more grateful for the time I got to spend with him.
He was not my pet; he was my life partner for more than 14 years.
Thanks for all the walks, and the fun, and the licks, and your ceaseless concern and attention.
Thanks so much, Petey.

Leslie Lawrence

I miss my Sweetie Petee but I know we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Pat Richardson

....a sweet, loving, trusting, little boy...Ill miss him terribly

Gail Pucciarelli

To the rest of the world he was just a stray, a ratty looking cat from who knows where, but to us he was the cat of many names , Peter, Gizmo. Rugrat, Nudge , a cat that thought he was a dog, with strange, yellow eyes and back feet that looked like a rabbit. He adopted us and we loved him dearly. When he went home to Pussy Heaven we missed his gentle brush against our feet, his head under our chin as he purred himself to sleep and the loving welcome every time we came home . He is with Mr Jones now and we know that one day we'll meet again. Until then Giz the Wiz give our love to all those gone before and thanks for all the cat lick hair washing and sleeping alongside us at night so we weren't scared of the dark. All our love little one

Enandjay and Hailey

In Loving Tribute to my beloved dog, Pete

I will love you forever, you were my faithful friend through some of the roughest parts of my life and the one I could always count on, on this earth.
Now the angels have taken your broken cancer ridden body up to Jesus and He has healed and sent you play and wait at the Rainbow bridge for Mommy & Daddy.

You are with your sweet brother Bo and the cats,
Hannah and Hagar and we will rejoice together when its our time to come home and be with Jesus and see all your loving faces again.

I miss you sweet boy, every time I get and ice cube and you aren't right there to get yours and that is everyday.
But, I am so happy to think of you now whole and running and playing like in years past.
You were the MOST faithful and wonderful dog I ever knew and God broke the mold when He made you.
Anyone that knew you knows this is true.

So my sweet boy, play hard, rest hard and I'll see you in the blink of an eye.

I will always cry sometimes because I miss you, I will always laugh sometimes because I knew you.

I won't say goodbye, just see you later.
Love,
Mom

You will always be my sweetie.
I love you forever, and we will meet again.

Vinaya Swaminathan

My Sweet Sweet Shebia:

I love you so much, and will carry you in my Heart forever. You were the Best Girl, Shebia wait for me, I will come for you at the "Rainbow Bridge"

Ann Peters

Petey was a big part of our lives.
He was always ready to cuddle on the couch as soon as we sat on it.
He always greeted us with a kiss (well, he was actually smelling us but since he always wanted to smell our mouths and foreheads, it seemed like a kiss!).
He was loved and will be missed terribly.

Dyanna & Emily

Gosh, I miss you!
Your loss was sudden and unexpected.
You were my buddy and I count every day I had with you as a blessing and complete and utter joy.
I love you kitty.
I wish you were here with me know cuddling like you always do when I type on the computer.
I feel empty inside.

Tina

Petey had many titles: Parking Lot Puppy, Welcoming Chairman, Entertainer, Sock Thief, Bed Warmer, Lap Warmer, Night Guardian (for any child that stayed at our house), Friend, Companion, and mostly the Black and White wiggling ball of fluff who was happy just to belong to our family.
Finding him at the side of the road, still warm and lifeless, has been one of the hardest things I've ever encountered.
Our love goes with him.

Luann and Mike

I will miss you my special friend. My heart is aching. Thank you for being a part of my life- you made my life and our family complete. I will think of you every day.

Pamela Garringer

My Petey Boy, my little Mutt dog.
May 25 was the hardest day for me: I sent you back to God.
You suffered so, but you never let it show. It was so hard for me to let you go.
I still see your doggie smile.
You were so kind and loving.
The way you did the 'circus' dance when we were eating dinner and you 'begged' at the table.
You are with Cleo now.
Give her a kiss for us.
I miss you so much and there will never be a time that I will forget you.
Love Mommi

Petey was a very special, smart and affecinate little budgie. She was taken from us much too soon. We will never forget the love, joy and laughter she brought us for the 5 1/2 short years we had her.

Shelley and Michael

Mom's little man.....I love you and miss you very much.
I know you aren't in any pain and you can run and play again....You were the love of my life and i will miss you forever...my heart hurts for you really bad.....I love you Pete...Mom

To our Peachy Keen,
We miss you so very much, even after all these years. You were such a tortured little soul after your brother Sherman died but you carried on for many more years. Our favorite memories of you include your chasing lizards and removing their tails and the times you tried to drink out of the swimming pool,fell in and then streaked across the patio. You joined your brothers Sherman and Malcolm in 1999 and now your other brothers,Lucky and Morgan have joined you too over the Rainbow Bridge so all you precious boys are together at last.
This is the first time in Mom and Dad's years together that we have been without any of our boys but we know you are happy to be together once again.
Our lives are very empty and so is our bed.
You boys gave us so many years of unconditional love and affection and we thank you for that.
We love you, our precious boys and we will see you once again someday.
Love, Mom and Dad

I MISS YOU SO MUCH, I STILL HERE YOUR BARK AND SEE YOU CUTE LITTLE FACE. YOUR OUR IN MY THOUGHTS EVERY DAY. LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!

Amy Burkhardt

Petey you were the best thing that ever happen to me, a large part of my life, my baby dog and I miss you everyday.
I know you are not in pain now and waiting for me so we can cross the Rainbow Bridge together.

Love, Mommy

Petey was our four legged baby who loved to pull your socks of your feet and play chase.
He liked to sit on our laps and jump on our bed in the mornings.
Our house feels so empty without him and I miss him so very much.

Elaine

I LIKE TO SAY SO MANY SPEICIAL THINGS ABOUT PETEY BUT, THE LIST IS SO LONG. SHE WAS VERY SPEICIAL TO ME. PETEY WILL STAY CLOSE TO MY HEART FOREVER.
NO ONE COULD HAVE A SPECIAL DOG LIKE MINE.
GOD PLEASE WATCH OVER HER... I MISS YOU PETEY. BE A GOOD GIRL SEE YOU SOON.. MOMMY

My Dearest Little Petey,
You have never been forgotten, my sweet little baby. I still miss you, little one. You were the first furbaby that I fell in love with and I was heartbroken that you had to cross the Bridge so quickly after you came into our home. I know that you struggled that night and if my parents would have allowed me, I would have been there with you. I wish I could have helped you. I knew that you were sick but I never expected that I would lose you then. You were the best at making a little girl feel so special. It took so little to have you love me and I felt so honored that you did. I remember giving you the tour of our house and how you loved to sit in my lap. I hope to see my little baby bunny who I loved so much and who is forever in my heart when it is our time. I have so much to thank you for, little Petey.

Stephanie Warner

Petey,
this is a tribute to you because so many people loved you.
It doesn't matter how many times you met someone, after the first time you wiggled a way into their heart.
Todd misses you so much--also--Will and Nicki miss you.
I know you are watching over them and in your own way trying to let them know you will all be together again.
Love, chuchies, (aunts) Helene & Frani

Sweet as they come.
Just sweet as they come.

Sandy Riley

I LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH
LOVE MOM
P.S. DOGGY MOM REBA MISSES YOU TOO

My beloved Petra. 7 years ago I went to a Rottweiler Rescue to find a doggy that was one that would keep me and my children safe. Once there I had a female come up to me and immediately lay down at my feet and roll over she had the biggest buggy eyes I had ever seen. I was initially going to get a male but after she introduced herself to me and looked at me with those big beautiful eyes I knew she was the one for me. I didn't even think twice. I love you with all my heart and miss you more than words can describe. I love you my baby girl.

April Roberts

My little man!

Jessicca Watson

I love you Petro just as much now as I did when you were with me in physical form. I will never never forget you.

Marilyn

Thank you, Petroushka, for being with me for 15 happy years.
I am so sorry you are gone and miss you terribly.
I love you so much because you were my special baby and friend.
Till we meet again, sweetie.

Teresa

Petunia was a really great Guinea Pig. I will Miss her. But she is at the Rainbow Bridge with all of her friends. I will see her again someday. She is in our Hearts.

Jonas

Peyton was the most loveable little guy.
He stole everyone's heart with his sweet personality and his "crazy eye" (He had an eye defect that caused one of his eyes to roll around in an odd fashion).
He became ill as a puppy, and never was able to feel better again. I was able to hold him in my arms when he took his last breath.
He entered heaven knowing he was loved.

Katie

Beloved Phaedra -- May you now run free and play with your sisters Bonnie and Ginny. You will be missed more than words can ever express.
Thank you for a wonderful and heartfelt 13 years of love, warmth and laughter.

You will forever be my "sweet pea."

Kris Reddinger

I'm so sorry you were with me longer honey. I didn't mean for this to happen to you, I hope you didn't feel any pain. I miss you.

Jess

Godspeed my little Phantom.
Wait for me on the other side, sweetie.

Joann Stark

Phantom you were the best cat we've ever known & you were here for such a short time. Losing you has been so difficult for us. We miss you everday & will never forget the love you brought to our family. We look forward to seeing you again.

Amy & Hemitheus Gherardini

Phantom you were a great cat and were taken too soon. I'm glad that you didn't suffer and will miss you by my side or on my lap. My sorrow is deep, but I have faith that we will someday be re-united. Love always and unconditionally xoxo M

Phantom, you were the brattiest and bestest kitty that anyone could ever hope want.
I know that I will never have another just like you and that is what made you so special.
I will always love you BABOO!

I thank God everyday for every moment I had with you. You were my best friend and I cannot imagine life without you.

for our dear sweet butterboy...you were a joy to be with..we loved every minute we spent with you..rest in peace and run with the squirrals

Maureen & Helen & Zoe

Phoebe was a special hamster, not to mention spoiled rotten by her Mommy.
Whenever she heard my voice she came out to see me and begged me to take her out of her cage to play.
I even kept her cage next to me on the "pet side" of the bed where my Pit-bull, Crystal and I all slept together.

In the summer I let her run free in my flower gardens as I worked on them.
She would always stay close to me.
She loved to run through the little mazes and tunnels my plants made for her.
Even though she liked hiding in the foliage she would pop out every so often just to make sure that Mommy was still with her.
When she was done playing hide and seek in the flowers she would climb into my lap or take a little nap in my pant-leg as I weeded.

Her favorite treat was fresh carrots.
One night I was eating a carrot and she grabbed hold to the end of it and pulled it right out of my mouth.

If she was in her exercise ball she would follow me around the house.
Even my Pit-bull, Crystal liked her.
If Phoebe was chirping or raising hell at night Crystal would whine and point for me to take her out.
If she needed something the dog would come and get me to tend to Phoebe.

I was sick when my sweet Phoebe left for the Rainbow Bridge.
I believe Crystal was trying to get me to assist her but in my zombie-like state I thought she was just trying to get me to let her outside and inside over and over just to be a pest.
My little one was right beside my head and I was unaware of my surroundings.
If I wasn't sick I would have realized that Crystal was trying to get me to help her hamsister, who I believe was choking.

The heartache I feel along with the guilt is so overwhelming.
I have never in my entire life felt so much pain.
If I could I would give up one year of my lifespan just to get her back.
My furbabies have given me so much love and nothing feels better than being truly loved and needed unconditionally.

Rest in peace my sweet Phoebe. When it is time I will make the Rainbow Bridge my first priority.
I will come for you and we will never part again.
Just remember that your Mommy loves you always.

Lori

I am so sorry my precious Phoebe, that I did not protect you like I should have.
I hope you are not hurting anymore and that you are in a better place.
Mommy misses you more than you know and it just hurts so much that you are not here with me.
I just hope and pray that one day I will see you again at Rainbow Bridge.

Christina Wilson

Sleep tight beloved member of our family.

May we meet again some sunny day.

Now you both are together on a long journey.
We will meet again.
Please save us a seat right next to you and Lottie.

Tim & Barbara Bailes

Phoebe was the most gentle, wonderful, beautiful little girl!
I miss her so much!
She is irreplaceable.
I know I will see her again someday.

Pam Adams

Phoebe has been diagnosed with a common cancer on the left side of her face. We know her time is fast approaching.
She is such a gentle spirit. We will miss her greatly.

Chris Acton

Today I helped my sweet Phoebe cross the bridge after 13 loving years. I adopted her from the St. Francis Society in Sausalito, California back in 1994 when she was about 8 weeks old. She's been with me through ups and downs, moved across country with me (secretly on my lap on a red-eye flight!), and I was always her favorite person. About five weeks ago I took her to the vet to be evaluated for weight loss and he found a large, cancerous liver tumor that had spread to her lungs. She also had several calcified bladder stones that became more uncomfortable as time went on. We thought she was going to hang in there for a few more months but last week she began to deteriorate more, and nearly all of her day was spent resting in her kitty bed.

I was able to hold her close while she received a simple sedative injection, and I spoke to her softly for about five-ten minutes while that took effect. When the vet took her arm to insert the IV, she gave him one last spirited hiss (to tell him who was boss).
I then gently kissed her head while he administered the solution through her IV. It only took a few seconds, then she took one last sigh and relaxed in my arms. I tucked her first and favorite toy into her paws, and let her go.
She'll be cremated and her remains will rest in a little cedar box somewhere special in our house.

I'm going to miss my sweet kitty. I have many pictures of her and even more memories. I try to console myself thinking about her meeting new friends over the bridge. I want to think about her being sparkly and playful and content.
And with any luck at some point in the far future I'll be able to give her kisses again.

Laura
for Phoebe (1994-2007)

Today, I lost my best friend, who has seen me through every high and low for 18 years.
She came to us, a little orphan we found at a waterfall base along the highway, for my daughter's 4th birthday. Today, as we petted and held her close, she left her pain-wracked body and traveled to the Rainbow Bridge, where I pray she is crossing to become a birthday gift to my late husband. I could never have felt more loved than by Phoebe, and I hope she felt the same.

Debbie Maxwell

Phoebe, go in peace and find your brother, Taffy.
May your feel no pain, only joy, may you play till your hearts content and may you never run out of catnip.
You will be missed and loved always.

Rob and Beth Weiss

Sweet baby angel, Go now to God ... You are only a baby., never had a chance. We gave you all our love. The disease was hurting your little body. So we had to say goodbye to you... too early. We never got the chance to share so much more. We love you so much. You are missed so very much.
Love forever... Kim and Bobby

Phoebe my little friend Im going to miss you so much and I love you forever

Cheryl

Phoebe and I shared the same birthday; I called her my "star baby". I got her to give my Betsy a pal, but Phoebe picked me. She came over to me,
pushed her head up under my hand, and purred up a storm that said, "Take me home, Mom." She was a sassy, spunky, sweet devilish little soul. You could not help but love her spirit. She left this world abruptly in an agonizing and mysterious downward spiral that wrenched my heart out. There will never be another quite like Phoebe.

Marie Gilliam

Close to the doorway
I paused and stand
As I had you....in my hand
As me and daddy watch but didnt speak
A silence tear rolled down our cheek
All of the remembers in the sun, rain and sand
but now our eyes are cold
and we wont have your paws to hold
As I bent down near I kissed you on your ear
With your head in my hand as I kissed you good-bye
Remembering when you was a puppy....I began to cry
When daddy open the door...for us to leave
I'll always remember....you will be with me

Deanna Binder
To Our Beloved Phoebe Sue....We all Love and Miss you...take care of yourself and Britney too

I miss you every day my little angel.
You are still sleeping with Mama in your canopy bed on the pillow next to mine.
I kiss you each morning and night and tell you how much I love and miss you.
I was blessed by your love and companionship.
Malachai and the girls say hello.
Mama

Phoenix - always by our side, faithful friend and the first dog for the Edwards family.
We will miss you precious girl and will keep you in our memories forever.
Please wait for us at the rainbow bridge and keep my baby girl Sweet Pea company.
Tell her I miss her horribly also and can't wait to see you both again. Until we meet again...
Love, Mommy Felicia, Daddy Gary and Mommy Lindsey.

I got Phoenix to help me over the loss of another cat. We had her for 3 months and she was taken by a fox.

Maeve Larkin

Phoenix passed 7 months before his older brother Lindsey. He was a sweet and wonderful baby. He was my angel and I miss him so very much.He and Lindsey are with my sister who passed in March of 2205 and her fiance who passed just recently in March of 2007. My heart is with them all.

Kara Elliott

We will always love you, Phoenie. Our hearts are broken. Why does it seem that whatever we do is never good enough?
Please forgive us for our shortcomings as your human family.
You, in this life, lived up to your name and taught us much about true love and loyalty.
We miss you so much. Visit us in our dreams.
We love you.

Jim, Cindy and Kenny

With all my love to my unconditional friend. Wait for me at the bridge, I will join you soon.
Love mom

We miss you, Pi.
You were a sleek, elegant, minature panther of a cat; so calm and cool, and always affectionate;
the true king of your little portion of the jungle.
Your twin, Tess, misses you too.
Every evening, she sits in the window, looking for you to come home.
We wish you had stayed with us a bit longer.

Happy Hunting, dear Pi.

Brandy Harvey

Good bye our sweet baby. It has been so hard to say good bye and you are missed with every moment of the day.
We know you are romping in the fields with Butkus and are no longer in pain.
We will see you when we get there!

Terry and Pam Edelbach

Picasso - We will always love you and miss you.
We will miss your sweet and gentle nature.
We are honored to have you in our lives and will never forget you.

Liz and John

we miss you so much picasso
we love you

Nicolas Rodriguez

My heart is broken forever. I can't wait to see you again, Picasso. I miss you every single minute of every single day. You were the best friend anyone could ever have. Our time was cut short and I will never figure out why. I hope you're waiting for me up there.

Stephanie

My precious, precious young Picasso. You had the soul of a true angel. You would comfort me and my family when we were ill or sad, lick our hands and cuddle your head into our bodies, when we needed comfort. When we adopted a little rescue dog you treated him with so much love, warmth and affection, that he blossomed into a trustful little individual.
My darling dog, I am so sorry we did not know you were ill, please forgive us. Had we known we would have done everything we possibly could have done to save you before it was too late. We grieve for you so much and ache because we miss you beyond words. Even our friends and family are crying over the loss of you. Know in your heart that you were truly, truly loved during your short stay on this earth.
I would give anything to have you back. Why did you have to die so young, when you could have had nearly a decade more with us?
But now you must instead be my angel in the skies and watch over me, mum and dad. I will never forget you and accept your premature and sudden death, life is so incredibly unfair. You were so very precious.
Till we meet again, plyds, I will always love you, your sister Julie

He will be missed so much.He was my best friend and companion with unconditional love always.

Bobbe Sorenson

We lost our Picina (little one) from liver cancer. We didn't have much time with her; only two years since we adopted her from a rescue organization. She came into our lives with one eye and disabled, mammary tumors, and a bad heart. We never thought cancer would take our little one away. Even though we only had two years together, we cried when she left us as if we had had her since she was a puppy. This tribute is dedicated to her feisy nature and for the joy she brought to our lives.

Louisa Craviotto

My little Pickle, I am so lost without you, Sasha keeps going from room to room to look for you and about every 10 min I have to take her outside to look for you. I could no longer handle the pain of watching you being disoriented and lost due to the fact you were blind. The only consolation I have is that now you're back with your Grandma and I know you both were elated when you went running up to the Rainbow Bridge where she was waiting on you, I will be there shortly. You better watch out for Gidget, she loved your Grandma and may try to push you out of her lap as she also wanted to sit in her lap as well.
I am so totally devistated now that you are gone little.Give Gidget, Peaches, Cocoa, Rover, WD, Rags, Willy, and little Harley a big hug from me.
I love you so much my little fickle fart.
I am so thankful that the vet allowed me to wrap you up in your blankie and hold you until it was time for you to go. These past two weeks were so special as you wanted to sit in my lap all of the time, I want to think that maybe you weren't so scared being in my arms. Don't forget to wait for me at the Bridge. You are gone but never will be forgotten.
Mommy loves you so very much.

I miss you as i would miss the air i breath,You were always there for me and i will always be there for you.I will never forget you and we will be together again some day.

Paul Brown

A wonderful companion to our family has passed on. We were lucky to know her only six hours after she was born. She loved us and we loved her.

Steve & Ina Franz & Stephanie Williamson

My best friend for 17 years, she stayed by my side through my marriage, divorce and many heartaches. She was there when I came home with her non stopping barks. We shared many hours on the beach together and she never let a night go without sleeping in my bed with me. Her nickname was Phoenix because she had risen from the ashes so many times before and made me believe she would be with me forever..Her passing was so hard and unbearable...I still hear the clicking of her nail on my tile floors at night...I will dearly miss my Pickles...

Melanie

Not a person in this world ever disliked you. You were a great dog and you are going to be missed greatly! It puts us at peace to know that you're not in pain anymore and that you are playing with your big cousin, Stubby, at the rainbow bridge right now.

We Love You Picks!!

The Entire Sopoci Family

We adopted Pickles a just over a month before he passed.
We got him from a family who wanted to find Pickles a home he could get all the attention he needed all the time. He was getting along great, until he got sick suddenly (FLUTD).
I barely had a chance to react to his sick behavior, when he cried out in pain. I picked him up and he was gone.
I won't ever forget his eyes, so full of expression.
He was just coming out his shell when he got sick.
RIP My sweet Pickle Puss

Alyson Towill

An angel on Earth and now another angel for heaven
thanks for all you have done for us, little one.

Laura McCluskey

Pookums the smartest, most loving dog in the whole world. It seems you are here such a short time and yet everyone knew and lived you. No one will ever take youir place in our hearts. Goodbye old friend.

Susie Brooks

Pickles, you were a gift from God. I love you. Thank You for your unconditional love for 19 years. We'll miss you, but see you again someday and cross the rainbow bridge all together.

Kristin

We love you Picklie poo!

Trish, Darren, Megan, Katelyn

Pickie, you are with Buster now, there is no more pain.
I hope you are doing your 'butt tucked under' dance in the dinning room and spooning with Buster when its time to take a nap.
I hope your 'blue' ball is with you and your extra cushy bed is there for when Buster does not want to nap.
I love you and miss you already.

Jamie

Pickles Lived a good long life and got to travel most of the central United States.
He will be missed.

David and Rhiannon Talley

I miss you. You made the last twenty years so special.

Robin Williams

Picnic,

You brought so much joy into our lives during your short life. It was such a privilege to be able to spend that time with you. We love and miss you so much..
Mummy and Daddy x

We miss you more each passing day....we were not ready for you to leave us, it all happened so quickly but we understand you had to go.
Now you're better and we know you're up there with Max playing all day long while watching over us.

You taught us patience, love and understanding...something no human could.

We love and miss you.

I miss your 'kisses' the most.

Luv Mamma and Daddy

I would have stayed with Pie on the Titanic. She was my heart. She stole my soul.Pie was truly as sweet as pie; kind, friendly,loving, funny. She was the being and beating heart that I loved most in the whole world.Her suffering is over, but mine is eternal,until we meet again.I pray she is sitting on the lap of God.

Janet McGready

We had Pierce and his half-brother, Rock, from the time they were 4 1/2 weeks old. Pierce was a beautiful, solid black wolf,with a splash of malamute, and very affectionate with us. He was always coming to me to have his tummy or head scratched, and would lie against my legs while I cooked or emailed, and curled up against me at night.I used to get annoyed when he'd bump me, sometimes rather hard, with his nose for something. I'd give anything now to feel that nose. He and Rock, and Rock's daughter, Sweetpea, were their own little subgroup among our 7 dogs. We loved watching the 'boys' chase and stalk each other all over the yard. Rock is Will's, and Pierce knew he was mine.
When Animal Control came to the house and said he'd been killed, I lost control right there in the street, and didn't care. My boy was dead,and my heart broken. Will was off across the country doing trucking, and had to deal with the loss all alone, and couldn't comfort me. I'm having a very difficult time dealing with the loss, he was such a big part of our lives. We took them to a dog park frequently to run, and spent a good deal of time with them at home, probably more than most people do with their pets. Our lives pretty much revolve around our babies, the furry ones! Pierce is resting in our little garden, waiting for me at Rainbow Bridge. Our good friend, Jim, had Rock and Pierce's older sister, and now has his brother, Takoma. When it comes to our furchildren, we're family! And friends.

Will and Karen Wood

Rest in Peace my precious Pierre.
I love you and miss you so very much

Cindy Tolle

I never knew you could bring me so much happiness.
I always looked forward to seeing you and giving you hugs and kisses.
You were like my baby brother.
The sickness was too much for your little body.
I know you are now in a better place. I wish you were still here and I hope to see you again some day.
I love you and miss you so much Pierre.

Heather Brown

A huge heart and tenacious love lived in this little package. He is a part of our family that will be ever missed. Now he can run like the wind once again.

Roger & Gail Naylor

To the greatest wee birdie who ever lived, thanks for flying down from that tree onto my head that day all those years ago. I'm so grateful for everything you gave to me, for everything you taught me for the joy you brought to me and, especially, for choosing to share your precious time on earth with me, with our family and with Floyd, PJ, Jinky, Paddy, Henrik, Floflo, Leah, Lubo and Champers. I will miss you, Peter Budgie, and I'll never forget you. Good Night, God Bless, it's time to go to sleep.

Pierre, my white fuzzy friend, were my baby and my joy. Your eyes told me of your love. And how I loved you--I took you with open arms to love for a long time. But it was not to be. Your heart could not keep up with your energy. You loved your play friends and stood up to your most recent new friend, Kracker a 50 LB English Boxer. But you at less than 10 LBS---put him in his place! Good for you! and that was only this weekend. One year of memories I have of you, my precious Pierre---my arms are empty now and I thank you for a year, a beautiful year full of love. I will see you again, look for me at the Rainbow Bridge.
Love & Miss You,
Momma

Pietra! Pete! Klondike! Muscle Head! Gringo Guy! and so much more.
Oh, Petey, I miss you so much.
I wish I could put my arms around your neck and feel your fur in my face.
How soft your ears were!
Everytime I looked at you--you were looking at me! Papa really misses you too.
We cry often together for our Pete.
Bran Muffin is lost.
She won't stay out now because you aren't here to guard the inside.
She lays in your spots and it breaks my heart.
You know I always told you I don't know what I would do without you.
You guarded me so well on those frightful nights when Papa was gone.
Buddy, I miss having to step over you in this tiny house.
I miss you typing in your sleep and your thumping tail when I entered a room or talked to you.
How thankful I am to have had you as my first dog.
Remember when you jumped in the white water and floated away and I screamed for you and ran to the other side of the bridge and there you were on dry land? You were amazing. And remember how jealous you were when we got Brandy--until Papa called you outside to play ball!
I miss you Bud.
I love you.
Papa too.
And Muffalo sends her love too.

Patricia Alber

I miss you, Sweetheart-always in my heart. I know that when Mom came up there last October you were waiting to make her feel better about the entire thing. I have your picture up on my dresser, and when I have a bigger home, I'll bring your box up with me. Please know that any other cat that comes to make their home with me, they'll never take your place-but all of you have seperate places in my heart.

I miss you, baby, and I know that it won't be but a blink of an eye until we're together again-but it'll be like an eternity to me here. you know how those times differ.

I love you, Sweetheart.

Andrea Wilhelm

Our sweet little pig pig loved to have her nose petted and she loved carrots and her brother & sister kitties. She purred and donkey kicked and she never let us forget her when she would squeal for us to come see her. We miss her dearly and we will never forget our sweet little pig. She never bit anyone and loved all people, cats and dogs. She had a sweet innocent little soul and was with us from 4 weeks old to seven years old. She was brave and strong...we love you forever sweetie...

Lisa Dykstra & Todd Schepers

Kim and Ian

Piggers was an extremely happy dog.
We named her Piggers because she ate like a little piggy when she was a puppy.
She was always wagging her tail and usually knocking something off of a table in the process.
We woke up to her thumping her tail and were greeted at the front door with her high-pitched howl.
Two years ago she was diagnosed with Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA). She survived and was dubbed the miracle dog.
The disease came back with a vengence and she passed away.
We loved her and there is a hole in our home and in our hearts.

Judy Herbert

Piggly, you were a brave little soul for as long as you lived, and I know you will go living happily until we meet again. I love you with all of my heart and I hope you know that.

Sami

My Dearest Piggly,

I will never forget the unconditional love you gave me and everyone in our family.
You were my big tough guy but you were so gentle around children and your older companions (Puddy R.I.P.).
You never even let anyone know you were in pain until the end. I will love you always.
I am so sorry I could not be there when you passed but I am glad that you had family around and that the techs put the phone up to your ear so I could tell you how much I love you.
I'll see you later my big mamaluke. xoxox

Love, Mommy

Piggy was a special kitty. He's been my baby for twelve years. He brought love to our family. Everyone who met him fell in love with him. We miss him so much. He became ill with CRF and went downhill so quickly it was quite a shock.

We love you forever Piggy.

John & Denise

Even though he was a gunie pig dosent mean he wasent special to us. we had him for as long time which made it harder for him to pass. We all miss him very much, and loved him to death.

The Trail Family

Piggy we miss you dearly; the house is not the same without your little squeaks.
We'll miss sharing all our fruits and veggies with our little squeaker.
We love you Piggy; we'll see you again.
We hope you are having all the tomatoes, romaine, and broccoli that your little heart desires.

The Jonon-Stout Family

Piglet spent 9 years of his life with his loving pet owners, his brother, Tux and his other feline companions, Sarah and Liza. He will be greatly missed and loved forever. We know that he is not suffering from cancer anymore and that he is happy once again. He was the best cat ever and it will be hard to not think of him each and every day.

Shannon Lam

Piglet,

I love and miss you so much. Thank you for allowing me to be in your life. You have given me so many happy and special memories! Thank you for being there with me through thick and thin. You were the best dog anyone could have. My heart is broken but I know we will be together again someday.

Susan Toro

Our beloved Boston Terrier Piglet passed on today, August 15. She was nine-years old and lived with us for three years, after adopting her from a nonprofit rescue organization.

Piglet relocated to the Bay Area after spending years birthing puppies at a puppy mill somewhere in the Midwest.
After 6 years, she found her way into our loving home via Wonderdogs, a breed-specific rescue in San Francisco.
She enjoyed a second puppyhood during her sunset years as she discovered anew toys, treats, and the
joy of being part of a family!

About one month ago, we learned that Piglet's heart was beginning to fail.
Although we'll never know for sure, likely the stress of her former life in the puppy mill or the heartworms that were discovered when we adopted her gradually weakened her heart.
Over time, the right-side of her heart enlarged to compensate for the weakened functioning and then, ineluctably, her overworked heart began to give out.
Dr. Prutton, from Abbey Pet Hospital, worked with us to keep her comfortable by administering a cocktail of heart medications.
By this week, Piglet began to have difficulty breathing as a simple cold and weakened circulation caused fluid to accumulate in her abdomen and possibly her lungs.
By last night, her physical condition had progressed so that she could no longer lie down to sleep.
We stayed with her through the night and brought her to the vet on Wednesday so that she would be able to rest more comfortably.

We've come to think and speak of Piglet's passing as being the result of her heart growing too big.
If you remember her loving personality and joyous wiggle, I think you'll agree with our diagnosis.
We've so enjoyed having her in our family for the past three years and will be forever changed by her love.

Ming and Stephen Chen

Piglet was a sweet little piggy who loved everyone, especially her piggy friend Scooby.
Though she left us very unexpectedly, she will be missed by all of her people and animal friends and never forgotten. She will always be the "little princess".

Ben, Thomas, and Jennifer

Piglet I miss you !!You have been best friend for so many years
I am glad you are not in pain anymore I will see you in heaven !!
Goodbye is not forever

Sandy Lepley

She died in my lap, my hand petting her at 2:07 am. She passed in her most comfortable position, and with me.....I'll always miss her

Brian Moffatt

The lovingest, smoochiest cat ever. Did not look or act her age. A kitten forever. I have never before cried over a pet, or grieved this much. There was no good or logical reason for the loss of her, which was sudden and involved a freak accident involving someone outside of our household. We will never know all the details, only that strange things happened far too fast.

Barbara Griffith

I loved him so much, he was the best friend I ever had.

Sadboy

He was such a nice cat i loved him so much!!! he meant the world to me he had a little brother who he use to play around with and clean and snuggle up with he was so nice and caring he was more than just a cat to me he was "Family" and i loved him "Picky I love you so much so many people miss you...I will Always Love you with all my heart and i Can't Wait till the day we meet and i get to see you again One Day Forever Love, Devon

Wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge, my faithful friend. I love you and am SO sorry we didn't have more time together. I love you very much and you were always a "Good Girl"!! Until we meet again, you will be in my heart always.

Heidi Kaliher

Kitty-Cat, you always came when I called you: I swear you were my dog reincarnated. You walked into my life only in July peering at me from behind the grasses in the garden. You adopoted me and became my chatty pal, welcoming me home after work and leaping around the house when you wanted to play, usually at 4 a.m. I wanted to let you keep your feral side and that was your undoing. Finding you today, so still and unmoving on the cold sidewalk, is an image that will haunt me. Did you come when you heard me call you only to be hit by a car? No blood but no gaze, no purring, no life. My dear little kitty I am so sorry. I will miss your company terribly. From the garden where I have returned you, you can watch the birds and chase away the mice....and always remain my loving companion.

Susan Barton

To my beloved and faithful companion,

I miss you so much, you were a true friend. I know we will see each other again, "ce n'est qu'un au revoir". I will always love you.

Isabelle

You were rejected by your first home when you became ill. We didn't need another ferret, but took you in to give you comfort until you passed. I tried not to get attached to you because I feared you didn't have long. You stole my heart by being so cuddly! You grew your hair back and became playful. Though we only had two short years, you stole a big piece of my heart. I am so sorry you were so sick and had to suffer in the end. If I had known, I could have eased your pain. I will always love you and will see you at the bridge where we can snuggle once again. Rest in peace, my friend.

Cheri

Our precious little puff ball.
We miss your
cute little face with those expressive eyes.
You were so spoiled, just as it should be.
We will alwys love you!
I know we'll meet again.

Mom and Dad

Pinky will love you always and forever, we miss you baby!

Love your sister Scarlet, your mommy, your grandma, riley and me.

Shannon

Pinky was the only cat in the world that squeaked when you picked him up.
He was the runt of the litter, the special one that I had to teach how to eat.
He was perfect, such a people kitty and so sweet to everyone.
I feel so blessed to have been given the opportunity to be with him and comfort him in his final hours, but he was taken before his time.
His passing has left a huge irreparable hole in my heart, but he's not sick and hurting anymore.
Pinky, you were too good for this world.
Life is short, and these past three years have been the best I've ever had because of you, Mr. Pinks.
I'll miss you forever.

Kortni

You were my best friend, the best any could have ever asked for. You loved unconditionally and with all you had. You will forever be loved and forever missed.

Charlene

My beloved cat, Pinot, was an amazing animal who was there for me through thick and thin for years.
When I first adopted him as an adult 15 yrs ago with his brother, I wasn't sure if I would keep them.
I had never had cats before and for me they felt like a lot of work.
But Pinot fell ill with an autoimmune disorder~most likely rodent ulcer.
I brought him to Bobst medical center in NYC as what I felt was a last resort.
He had had steroids which were awful for him. The sores went away and returned.
Finally, I learned of a homeopathic Vet and this started a whole new journey.
He quickly healed painlessly.
For me, this was a lesson in love and life.
It also confirmed for me the value of alternative treatments.
And I never again felt him to be a pain in the butt.
I had almost lost whom I loved and treasured him from then on.
Through the years, he required homeopathy.
At the end, homeopathy "failed" us.
But it wasn't for lack of trying.
He was a "man" type cat, the boss.
And yet he was nervous too.
We were very similar.
And he would never leave my side, especially during rocky roads.
How will I survive without him I wonder?
There is no one
that understands me as he did.
That is how connected we were.
Against what I wished, I put him to sleep.
He was in a "touch and go" situation at the end and I wanted him to die at home in my arms.
The homeopathic pain treatment was holding him less and less.
Finally, I had to make a judgement call.
I had to be the parent and decide what would be the most loving thing to do.
No outcome would have been the right one
because they all meant Pinot would be no more.
On 8/31/07, I asked the Vet to come to my home and even after all of the ceremonies, goodbyes, homeopathic tx's etc.., it still killed me to see him go.
I am sharing my pain here for the most wonderful, loving cat who was my dear soul mate.
I hope that I took care of him well.

Sharon Schultz

Best dog ever!

Linda & George Wordley

Thankyou mummy's princess for giving me so many years of love and pleasure i miss you more than words can say.
Though were not together
the way we used to be
we are still connected
though human eyes can't see
the bond we share is between two souls
though one has hands and the other paws.
So when you need to find me I won't be far apart
just look beyond the rainbow and listen with your heart. Miss you la la lots of love from mummy and big licks from Harry and Tarot xxx

My dear Piowie who I miss terribly, went outside and never returned home. I can only hope that you have been/are being looked after. Please look after your sister Pekoe, you are both together again in heaven. I love you both so much, we played, watched TV and slept together, but what i will miss most is both the company of you and your sister. I look forward to giving you both a huge cuddle when I meet you on the other side. I love you both soooo much xxxxx

John Freeman

He was known by many names...
Pip, Pippy, Pipster, Pippopotomus, Pipzilla, The Miracle-Gro Cat and countless others... But one of my two Blacksburg kitties very unexpectedly passed away... For those that know Pip well, he was "the Smart Road Kitty"... I found him here when he was just 4 weeks old, and after rescuing him and his 2 siblings, I promptly brought him home to my g/f at the time... He passed away at the far too soon age of 5.

Salty, my first cat, is of course heartbroken, Pip was his best friend & companion... They always looked out for each other, through moves across state, to the introduction of new cats to the house & countless encounters with the dreaded vacuum cleaner... they were friends for life...

Over the years, numerous people have wanted to steal him away for their own, because he was just that loveable... and he loved everyone back who ever met him ten fold. Probably the one thing I'll miss is how talkative he was, and how almost anyone could just have a conversation with him, even if they had no clue what he was saying... I think he just liked to be listened to...

His legacy has been passed on though... ever since our youngest feline Hokie came home, Pip took her under his wing, teaching her everything he knows... She's taken on a lot of the same personality traits he had when he was a kitten. It'll be nice to see just a bit of him live on...

He is survivied by his brothers Salty & Chipper, sisters Hokie & Katie, uncle Oreo (his mentor) and his human parents, Myself, Sabrina; human Aunt Kate; and human grandparents Doug & Sheriann Stuard.

Goodbye Pipzilla... We hope wherever you are, you're catching bugs & mice, and making new friends in the great beyond... We'll all miss you... More than you'll ever know...

Chris Stuard

Pip was my boy, a very good boy, and I will miss him until we meet again...he will always be a glimmering star shining above and twinkling, telling me he is doing just fine. I love you boy boy...sleep good...mommy

Pip was a lovely cat, he is sadly missed by me and my other cats.

Maria Antonuccio

Pip was my loyal companion - who was always there by my side.
She expected very little and yet gave so much.
When the other dogs were leaping up and down for a cookie - Pip would stand at the back waiting patiently for her turn. She was such a kind dog and just gave in time and time again to the other dogs.
But she knew she was special to me and that's all that mattered. I've told her to wait for me at the Bridge and she will because she's a good loyal dog.
I miss her so much..... love from her Mommy (Marion).
Wait for Mommy Pip..wait for Mommy

Piper was born a sick puppy but with extra love and handfeedings she made it through. She died on March 13th due to Boxer Cardiomyopathy.....showing to signs to me at all that she was going to pass. That afternoon I gave her her last peanut butter cookie as we headed to the vet to see why she had started to cough. By the time we got there, she was just about gone. They rushed her in, but she didnt make it and I never got to say goodbye.

I will light my 1st candle tonight (March19th, 2007)in tribute to my PP baby and I hope she can look down and see the flicker light up in heaven and know that I miss her SO very much and will love & miss her until I take my very last breath.
LOVE YOU PP!!

Jennifer Tolson

Your life was hard, we tried to make it easy for you..

T & D Masters

We miss you so deeply, Piper.
I'm so sad/sorry that I couldn't take away your pain, that I couldn't "fix" you here...I'm so sad that you're gone, but girl knowing that you were hurting so badly made the decision to let you go feel like the right thing to do.
And I know that you wanted to stay with Mommy, Turkey Pig--I wanted you to stay, too.
I wake in the night because your big, beautiful body isn't wrestling me for room!!
And Pig, I would give up all of the bed room in the world just to sleep with you one more time, just to cuddle with you and kiss you by your ears.
Oh my little popcorn feet, not a day passes that I don't stop and cry a little for you...you are my best friend Piper, and you will ALWAYS be Mommy's Best Girl.
It's Just My Pie.
I miss your stinky kisses, I miss you bringing up the caboose on our walks, I miss you crushing me on the couch, I miss you helping me clean the dishes...there's nothing about you that I don't miss, Piper...there's nothing about our time together that I would change, other than making it longer.
Wait for me girl, rest up for me...I expect many 'fives' when we meet again, and even more kisses and wails of joy.
I love you, baby girl.
I love you so much.

Kristina, Ben, Jack, Lola, Wanda, Annie

Piper was the happiest, friendly dog that I had the honor to live with.
He will never be forgotten!
We miss him so much, as does sister Penny.

For our constant friend and loyal, beloved companion, Pippa. Rest and peace are forever yours, dearest one. We love you and always will. Your true and grateful family eternally. Until we meet again.

Diana Greenwell

Today, we had to get my rabbit, Pippa, put down because of his kidney failure. I just want to say that I am thankful for the four years that I shared with him. I am still grieving but my broken heart will heal after some time, but in the meantime, I will remember him and all the happy moments we shared. Goodbye Pippa, love you.

Naomi

My beautiful pet cat Pippen came to me as a kitten that had been thrown from a passing car. We took him in and he lived with us for 4 years.
Then he started looking ill and developed a nasty cough. We brough him to the vet and he had cancer. He had to be put down that night. He is sadly missed.

Maeve Larkin

Dear Pippi,
You were very special to me, We all love you and miss you. Now you could meet Barney, Cody, Samson, Misfit, Boots, Echo, (Bud, Cloe, LionKing, Tiger MYFrogs), and Witches and of course Peanuts the nut job. EVERYONE SAYS TO YOU PIPPI DO NOT FALL IN ANY POOLS!!!! WE All Will Meet One Day AT the Rainbow Bridge!!

ALL OUR LOVE PIPPI

Papa,Mimi,Brianna Jaden And most of all

Sammi Girl xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxooxoxoox

My darling boy Pippin passed away Friday. He was a beautiful silver tabby with golden eyes. His fur was soft and downy. He was tall and athletic and had a huge personality. He loved jumping to the top of the bathroom door and looking down at me when I was showering. He would race me upstairs. I would ask him to show me his flirty tail and he'd flick it, just out of reach.
He loved Simple and Morris and could often be seen grooming and playing with them. He was the foster father to my little foster kitten, Smeagol, when he was so tiny and delicate. He loved to groom him and cuddle him and played with him so gently with his big soft paws. When his brother, Merry, died, he was sad. They were so close and loving. He was a little more timid when Merry didn't come home one day.

When I brought them home, Pippin and Merry were sickly. They both had ringworm, conjuctivitis, fleas, diarhea. While nursing them back to health, we bonded so strongly. They were both kneaders and sucklers, but only with me. Almost everynight, one or both wanted to come to me for cuddles. Pippin stood stoicly by while Merry was sick. Merry pass on Dec 26, 2004, just a little over a year old.

Pippin first got ill when he ingested thread. After a traumatic surgery, he fought back and got well. He was so brave! His incision was the entire length of his abdomen and yet he still wanted to run and play. I thought it would be the last time I had to see him so injured.

Last September, he started having problems with constipation and then a UTI. He recovered from that and was spunky and well again, and then in the spring he started having urinary problems again. This progressed quickly. He had a PU in late April and I thought he would be OK. I was wrong. This past Monday he blocked again. Almost unheard of in a cat with a PU. We thought it was urethral spasms. They drained his bladder and put him on anti-spasmodics and I took him home Monday night to keep him under observation.
He was so sweet and loving that night. We had lots of cuddles and love. He was always so snuggly, even when he was sick. He would roll on his back so I could rub his sore tummy.
He went back to the vet on Tuesday and stayed Wednesday. The vets were perplexed. They tried to catheterize him many times. It wouldn't work. On Thursday they told me they didn't know what to do and set up an appointment to have a ultrasound on Friday morning.
My roommate visited with him for about an hour at the vet. He was jumping around, being silly, giving us headbumps and kisses. Flirting his tail.
I took him home again on Thursday night. It was our last night together. We had a good night.
There was lots of love. He slept with me the whole time. I begged him not to die. I told him I loved him. He gave me kisses and gazed in my eyes. He woke me up many times to cuddle. He pushed his wet nose in my mouth. He always did that to make me wake up and kiss him.
He bravely tried to pee for me Friday morning before we left for the vet. He got out a few dribbled and I was so happy. I had hope for him again.
The vet called to tell me about the ultrasound. It was not good news. Pippin's urethra was blocked, it looked like he had a stricture of scar tissue. We opted to try to dissect out enough of the scar tissue to let him pee freely. The damage was too severe and he passed away on the table. I got the call and it was bad news again. Always bad news. This was the worst news.
My baby was gone. After everything we tried, he was gone. He's never coming home again. He'll never knock things off my dresser again. He'll never follow me in the kitchen and sit on the fridge again. He'll never wrap his paws around my neck, nuzzle against my cheek and purr only for me.
I miss him so much. I want to look up and see him on the entertainment stand, one paw hanging over, blinking sleepily at me. Waiting for me to come and kiss his head.
I saw him after he had passed. I got to kiss him goodbye. He looked like he was sleeping, but he was cold. I long for the day when I can see him at the bridge. I know he's there with Merry now and they are both healthy and happy and waiting for me.
Part of me is relieved to be free of the worry and expense and fear for him. Part of me would gladly take on those things for the chance to hold him again.

Thank you for reading Pippin's story. His death was not in vain. The vet will learn from him and perhaps save other cats just like him. He was only 4 years old and he was my soul mate.

I love you Pippin. Visit me in my dreams.

Devlyn MacKinnon

I had my dog Pippin put to sleep today because of acute failure of the kidneys and liver. She had been unable to eat for a long time and spent all her time lying on her bed. With all this I am still not sure that I had the right to "do the right thing" and take away her life. It was only two hours ago but I miss her already, tomorrow I will have to clear away her toys, bowls, food and bed because I will not be able to see them without going through heartbreak again. I still miss her former pal Benjie who was put to sleep in May 2003. how long before we are re-united at the Rainbow Bridge. please God take care of them (and me)

Ron Evans

A song dedicated to my darling Pippin:

Bright Eyes - Art Garfunkel

Is it a kind of dream,
Floating out on the tide,
Following the river of death downstream?
Oh, is it a dream?

There's a fog along the horizon,
A strange glow in the sky,
And nobody seems to know where you go,
And what does it mean?
Oh, is it a dream?

Bright eyes,
Burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Is it a kind of shadow,
Reaching into the night,
Wandering over the hills unseen,
Or is it a dream?

There's a high wind in the trees,
A cold sound in the air,
And nobody ever knows when you go,
And where do you start,
Oh, into the dark.

Bright eyes,
burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

A little tribute true and tender,
Just to show that we remember.
Time may pass and fade away
But memories of you will always stay.

Jennifer Lynn Schreck-Rickard

saddly missed. xoxo to P

Daren and Troy

My special little "popcorn girl", you will be so very missed.
The nightlights will always be on for you.

Karen Martin

My dear, sweet little girl who first climbed up my arm at the Humane Society and lay down on my shoulder....what a life we had together. Seventeen and 1/2 years we had.
Putting up with your step-brother Rebel, always picking on you. He sure did let you know from day one that he was the Alpha.
You know, little girl, he misses you like crazy now....always looking for you and your good food that he wanted but could not have. You always had a way of letting me know the good people from the not so good people. If you liked some one, I knew they were OK to be around.
When you started to get sick....I knew the end was coming and I just held you and tried to comfort you as much as possible. Just like you started our life together on my shoulder....your life ended with my holding you in my arms and you head on my other shoulder.
Will miss you always....my sweet baby girl.
Love you always......Momma

THE SWEETEST AND BEST WEE DARLING GIRL, MY OWN WEE PIXIE-LOVE.

Claire Lynn

My little shadow, gone from my life but will never ever forget you. You will always be my little Pix.

Nicki

My sweet little girl.
You brought so much joy to my life.
Though your time on Earth was short, you earned your Angel wings.
Look down on me from Heaven, and know that I never forgot you, and I think of you always.
Until we meet again.

Natalie Fayman

We only had Pixie for a short time but her love and innocence shone through to all whom she touched. Taken tragically but always with us.

Julie and Lauren Edser

Pixie was a dear friend to me as we grew up. I'm now a senior in high school (she was almost 16), and it was tough to see her go after so long. She always enjoyed chasing seagulls along Lake Superior, skiing at Ellis Lake, operating "neighborhood patrol" and "squirrel patrol" from the front porch, herding the diesels at the village offices along the back fence, and traveling with her family. She always loved unconditionally, and she was my Best friend. She was my younger sister, and I was the middle child in the family because of her. I'll always miss her kisses, hugs, barks, and understanding silences. I love and miss you Pixie! Have fun up there, and I'll run to you as soon as I join you and your friends in Heaven!

Steph W

PJ was so special to me; i loved her so and her passing keeps me crying even today.
She was so sweet, gentle, loving, and caring.
It was so sad to see her so ill.
She is part of my heart.

Joanne

Born July 25, 1995; Died July 21, 2006.
Pooh Bear "P.J." Jackson was my first cat. Growing up, all the other members of my family were allergic to cats so we always had dogs in our home. When I went away to college in 1995 I fell in love. I saw a kitten in the window of a pet store who looked larger than the others. When I picked him up, I noticed one of his eyes was much larger than the other. The kitten nuzzled my neck and licked my cheek. I asked the clerk how much he was and she said he was only $9.99 because he was 3 months old and no one had adopted him. After seeing him use the litter box for the first time, I knew I had found a cat I could love.

P.J. was quick and smart. When he was a kitten he would hide in the smallest of spaces, earning the name "P.J. the Magic Cat" by my grandfather. He loved to play and I soon learned he was also talented-he could fetch toys better than a dog!

P.J. was a longhair Maine Coone & Tabby mix with tan, black and white. He had the softest fur even up to the day he died. His pads were bright pink and the hair grew between them like a little old man as he aged. But his feet always remained soft because he was an indoors-only cat throughout his life.

I learned to love P.J. like no other pet before him. He became so much more to me than just a cat-he was my companion, friend, housemate, child, caretaker, and source of joy. P.J. and I lived in several different cities and states as I began my career after college. Even out of state and away from family and friends I didn't feel alone because we were always together. P.J. liked to join me when I ate my meals, and could always be found sleeping in my lap in front of the t.v. He loved to play fetch and according to my best friend, "...Had more toys than her children." It was easy to spoil P.J. because he was so easy to love.

His talents extended to opening doors by standing on his hind legs and hiding in cupboards where you least expected him. P.J. was a very talkative cat which is something I treasured. He greeted me after work at the door each night, talking even before I opened the door, right up until the last several months of his life.

P.J. had a great purr! He used to cuddle up next to me on the bed and let me rub his belly. He would lay his head on my hand or next to my head and start humming that beautiful purr. He used to like to listen to my mom as she talked to him on the phone and would purr in response when I held the phone up to him. No matter how bad the day had been, I would always calm down with his soothing purr. Even towards the end of his life, when his voice was hoarse most of the time, he would lie next to me and attempt to purr to the best of his ability.

P.J. seemed to be able to read and share my emotions. He did not like it when I was upset, especially if I started crying. He would take his paw and slap me hard across the face! He never did this at any other time so I think it was his way of saying, "Come on mom, snap out of it!” which usually worked!

I think one of the reasons P.J. was so special to me is because no matter where I lived or what I was doing, he was always there. He was a constant in my life which at times was in motion with moves, boyfriends, or new jobs. As a single young woman in her early 30's I have yet to marry. But I had the joy of raising and loving a child through P.J.

When started slowing down, wetting outside of his litter box and drinking lots of water I knew something was wrong. He was diagnosed with diabetes and he fought the courageous fight for nearly 5 and 1/2 months. He hated getting his insulin injections twice a day and would run and hide, and then turn his head and bite my hand when I gave him a shot. He stopped sleeping under the covers at night, and eventually stopped his favorite game of playing fetch as well.

The day I euthanized my best friend P.J. was the hardest day of my life. I had been debating the decision for a few weeks but knew the time was coming. The morning of June 21, 2006 I talked with my aunt about how sick he had become. After our discussion I knew that was the day. I took off of work and my mom went with me to my aunt and uncle's house where we had a "family goodbye". We went to the veterinary clinic and I could barely tell them what we needed through my sobbing.

The staff at the clinic was so respectful and let me have as much time as I needed before the vet came in the room. P.J. had wet himself in his cage so my mom and I cleaned him up. I held him and sang to him, and told him how much I loved him. I petted him and my mom clipped some of his fur for me to keep, at my request. When the vet euthanized him I held his head in one hand and his paw in the other. He seemed very peaceful and was dead in a few seconds. I spent time with him afterwards to say my goodbyes. Leaving him behind on the table and exiting the veterinary clinic was excruciating.

I could not sleep the next night and knew I had to get him back. I called the vet's office the next morning and went and picked up his body in the afternoon. I took him to my parent's home and held him in a little blanket while my mom dug his grave. He felt cold and was frozen on his underside but looked like he was just sleeping from above. I petted his soft fur and told him I would never forget him. My mom and I wrapped him in a blanket and buried him under a rhododendron bush in my parent's backyard.

I think about P.J. every single day. He brought so much joy, fun, silliness, responsibility and unconditional love into my life. I am grateful for the nearly 12 years we had together. He will always be my first child and remain in my heart and mind forever.

P.J., thank you for taking a chance on a 21 year old college girl. Thank you for letting me be your mom, and for the love you gave. Because of you, I am a true cat lover. But I want you to know you will always remain my favorite. Remember our song, "P.J., momma's boy...". Thank you for loving me. You will never be far from my heart.

Kimberly Jackson

We are all going to miss you little boy.

He passed on today in my hands .I was telling him how much i loved him.He was a sweet friendly little soul,he always liked his mirrors in his cage.He would chat to the reflection of himself, he really enjoyed it.He was a soft pastel of blue and white.I am going to miss him terribly....I just wish i could follow him where he went...right now i feel i don't want to be here.The light that would shine in my heart for him ,will never dim, that light in my heart will never die ..i will never forget ,no power in heaven or on earth will make me forget, Love can never die or ever be forgotten .At least not for me.

Pointer has a very special place in so many people's hearts. He was a loyal friend,companion,precious family member as well as our school's unofficial mascot. He will be missed but he won't be forgotten. He was one of a kind.

Mary Ingram

Someday we will all meet again and until then play with your favorite ball and let the sun shine on your face and be happy. Max and Sandy know you are looking over them. Love you.

Nancy Lavallee

Pokey was my 'first dog'. We actually had three others before her but my mom and dad took care of them.

I moved to Cold Lake Alberta in 1990 and in 1991 I discovered that there was room for a dog in my life. I drove to the local pet kennel to see if there was a dog for me. I found a slip of paper on the bulletin board that advertised a "Springer Spaniel" to give away. PERFECT I thought as I tore the number off the bottom. A bigger dog that would be able to go walking with me in the surrounding forrests and snowmobile paths.

After much patience with trying to get a hold of the person that was giving this puppy away I was finally able to go take a look at the puppy.

I drove out along this rough service road in a blizzard to this home in the middle of nowhere. Walked up to the door and was greeted by lots of kittens and this brown and white 'dog' bounding towards me showering me with love. I asked the lady where the "Springer Spanial" was and she told me 'you are looking at 'er'. OH was all I thought! Well, I fell in love with this little bundle of fur. And asked the lady if it was possible for her to hang onto this puppy for me for a week. She responded that if I did not take her that night, she was putting her to sleep the next day.

SOOO that decision made, I hauled dog, blanket, bag of food into my car and we made our way to her new home.

Pokey was a wonderful companion and best friend to me from the moment we made contact with each other. Wishes do come true as I know that I wished for her. We ran, played and hung out for sixteen long years. With a few moves in between. She always adjsted well except in one instance.

I had gone on a week long vacation and had given Pokey to my parents to look after. They were working in their yard one day and were used to leaving the gates open for easy access to and from the back yard. They did not realize that Pokey had gone 'missing'. They panicked and looked for three straight hours wondering how in the heck they were going to explain to their daughter 'THE ONE THAT TRUSTED THEM TO LOOK AFTER HER FUR BABY'...that they had lost Pokey. After walking and driving the streets they started walking in the direction of my place (I lived three blocks down from them) they saw in the distance this brown and white dog walking quickly toward them but on the opposite side of the street! They were overjoyed and started to call out her name but she was focused on heading back to their place and by the time they returned to their home, Pokey was panting by their back door. She had gone back to where we lived and discovered that I was not there so headed back to my mom's place...Sweet little girl..

The decision to let my Pokey dog go to heaven was made one evening while feeding her supper...I knew it was time she went across the "Rainbow Bridge"...I made her appointment at our rural vet clinic. The morning that I was to take her to the vet was snowy and slippery...I was not too sure if we were going to make it on time. I did take some very special pictures of her and my other two dogs togther and along with some wonderful memories I drove her on her last journey...I sat in the truck with her by my side crying and explaining to her that we had a wonderful time togher but that it was time for her to go to heaven..I walked in and told the lady at the counter that I had brought in my best friend for her 9:30 appointment. She ushered us into a room to allow us time together and some quiet time.

The gentle vet came in and allowed me to hold my best friend while he administered her a mild seditive to calm her down. He left us alone to have one last hug and kiss then soon returned with another vet.

We gently laid Pokey on her side and I was allowed to hold her sweet sweet little head in my arms and held onto her while she drew her last breath.

Pokey was such a wonderful animal..I would love sometime to write down all her escapades and adventures and maybe someday I will. Thank goodness for your wonderful website as you are all angels.

Thank you for allowing me to pen my grief as I move along my path of healing.

Love Leigha.

Poko was our everything. Poko could bring a smile to your face when you thought there could never be anything to smile about. Poko had a real love for horses, he would talk to them in dog language and they would come and stand at attention from afar and then he would just stare at them. Poko could show you where his treats were and walk you there even if you had never been in the house with him before. Poko could sit, rollover, beg, speak, whisper, pray, crawl, dance,play dead,and he was very good at shaking hands. Poko did not mind baths,he woulod let you hold his feet and practically do anything to him you wanted. Poko knew his yard and was never tied up in a busy city he knew he could go as far as the curb. He would dart out but when his toes reached the edge he would put on his brakes.
Poko loved to ride in our vehicles. Every family member will miss Poko as he touched the lives of all of us.Poko, my buddy you were my husband's faithful companion and you will be missed. God speed.

Poko Simba
One fine summer day in 1997 a little dog was tossed away, just put in a brown box and left
to stray away but down the sewer drain he did fall. Someone heard his cry and made the call.
With Tom on the Police Dept he was called to check it out, well with help of a friend and her dog,Lucy the little brown dog was rescued and put into quarantine for 10 days, Tom also was there for the little fella as the Vet Clinic
was Tom's part time job. Every day this little brown dog would follow Tom every where he went. He picked Tom to be his master and devoted to him until the very end he was and will always be known as Tom's Best Friend.
Poko was given 2 chances to be trained and did very well. He charmed the hearts of each and every one who he came to know.Tricks became his favorite hobby he learned to speak, whisper, roll over, play dead, pray, beg, play dead, crawl, whisper,and most important of all shake hands.
He would let you rub his feet, dress him in costumes, sit him in positions and stay for a snap shot. Poko had great curb training skills and would go to the very edge without stepping off as he knew his boundaries.
When he wanted a thrill a horse in sight would make him smile as he spoke to them in doggy language he could bring a horse to the fence from afar, it was heart breaking to see him hurt
so we made the hard decision to send him to
his final resting place, faithful to the very end his little brown eyes stared at us as he said,Thank-you for taking the best care of me you could, for clean water every day, treats without having to even ask for them, love when I was bad, and blankets when I was sad, as we all cry tears for Poko now that he's gone we have one thing to say "Poko lives on".

Tom and Gale Scherbenske

Dear Poky,

I will never forget the times you escaped into tha great outdoors or the time you wre lose in the house with 2 cats and a dog around. I was heart broken when you enterd a seizer then died. I CANNOT SAY HOW MUCH I MISS YOU!

Love,

Rachel

Poldy was more than a dog.
He was a member of our family, our child.
We are missing him very much.

Ted and Dorothy Mayer

My Polly Dog
You came to me at 6 weeks old...A tiny thing that I could hold...From the first time I saw you...you won my heart...I knew someday we would have to part...We camped, we traveled,we saw alot...I prayed this time would never stop...We've walked threw the wind, rain, and snow...we always seemed to be on the go...One foot two foot,three foot,four...we always did this a the door...We've traveled and seen a lot...I prayed at night it would never stop...We've walked the trails, chased the ducks on the lake...sat around the campfire till it was late...But, as time went by, the infection grew...I knew in my heart I was losing you...You have been such a pal and friend...I do not want your life to end...I see the pain in your brown eyes...my heart is heavy and tears I cry...The baby,the moose and the piggy to...have all become a part of you...The time has come when you must be free...from all your pain and misery...Within my heart, you'll always be...I will truly miss your company...I hope someday we'll meet again...My Polly dog, you were my Greatest Friend.

Ashley

My trusted and loyal friend for 14 1/2 years. Polly was a retired Search and Rescue Dog. She has many rescues and recoveries to her credit. But what she did best was love and take care of me. There is a hole in my heart. I know she would not want me to grieve too long, but the pain of her loss is unbearable right now. Thank you for understanding. Carol

Miss you girl.
Plenty of friends from the home and farm now to join you.
How is Popcorn?

Wait for us, you are our little baby, and we lov you so much.

You will never realise just how we feel without you.
Find someone to look after you till we get you back.

Love Simon

Our Polly Walleyanna was a precious part of our family for almost 15 years. She was a faithful little shadow to her Mama. Words cannot express how much we already miss her. But, she was tired and it wasn't fair for us to let her continue to suffer. It was as if she was hanging on just because we didn't want to lose her. So, we had to make the difficult decision to let her go. I believe like a friend told me, "The rainbow poem is a little comforting, but if God created these precious beings, then surely He will allow us to enjoy them through eternity." You will live on in our hearts forever, little Polly. And we will love you forever.

The Walleys

Polly was our "Old Woman".
I've known her her whole life.
Some friends found her in a park one day 17 years ago, and just four years ago, we took her in to our home for retirement.
She led a FULL WONDERFUL life on several farms with them.
We always loved her and it was a privalage to have her come live with us.
She was wonderful with our cats, as some of them grew up with her and she was basically their Nanny.
Always cleaning them and sleeping with them.
Our Nan dog will truely be missed.
We lost two pets last week, but at least they are both togather now.
Dev, one of our cats, we had to put down 4 days later.
They were really good friends to each other and we're happy knowing they are togather again.

Charlie & Kevin

A loving and faithful companion to me.

Norma Jones

Poncho was our dog.
He was the sassiest, spunkiest little dog you would ever meet.
Though he did not like too many strangers the ones he did like he loved with all his little heart.
This life dealt him a bad body and cut short his time.
We know that he will find his way back to us.

Wendy Skwarlo

Little guy will always be missed
