Year 2010 Tributes

For pet names beginning with "M".

My Mac, Mackie, Mack-a-doo, my Baby Boy, my Goober, My Bubby...you left me so suddenly that one moment you were here and the next you were gone. I am so sorry that I didn't get to say that final goodbye, but am glad I got to hug and kiss you and tell you I loved you just before it all happened. The house is so lonely without you, but I know you are up in puppy heaven, looking over rainbow bridge with Beanie -- you are both looking down at me and smiling. I will miss hugging you, kissing you and making you smile. Mac, you were the man in my life and my everything for the last 2 years. Words cannot describe the pain and emptiness my heart feels, but I am so honored you chose me to be your momma and shared your life with me. Until I can hold you and kiss you again, and all be together for eternity, you will remain my only baby boy -- the man of my life. You were so special to me -- there will NEVER be another Bubby! The day will come very, very soon that we all will be together and until then, play with Beanie, have sweet puppy dreams and be happy like I know you are...I LOVE YOU FOREVER BUBBY!

My little Maci girl was a loving Shih Tzu. She was the sweetest thing ever. She had sugar problems and was in puppy ICU. She had been doing so well, then her heart just stopped. We only had her a week and a half before she died. Her family misses her so much and we love her more than anything.

Macy was the sweetest, kindest most gentelest dog I have ever met and I loved her so much. I had to let Macy go today to a better place so she could join her sisters at the Rainbow Bridge. Macy was so friendly, she never met a stranger and she just had to go up to every person or animal she came in contact with to say hi and make them a friend. When she was younger, her whole back end would wag when she wagged her tail which was very often, it was so cute! Everyone loved Macy so much, you just couldnt help it, you fell in love with her the moment you would lay eyes on her! She loved to be outside and soak up the sun, her long floppy ears would just flow with the wind. Macy never cried or barked or complained about anything, she was so laid back and sweet, all she ever asked for was our love and boy did we give it to her! She loved to snuggle up with her daddy when it was bedtime and she was always in the kitchen with me while I was making any kind of meal-wow, did she love to eat! Macy's life didnt start out so well, she was beaten and neglected and ended up at a shelter and that is when I came to save her! She never looked back, she had a wonderful life with us and we will always miss her terribly! Macy, I hope you understand that Momma let you go out of love so that you could be pain free and you could go be with your sisters to run, play, jump and eat as much as you want! Chelsea will show you the ropes at your new home and Momma and Daddy will see you again real soon in heaven. We love you so much Macy, you were the best freind we could ever asked for! Love always, Momma and Daddy

Our beloved Madame Buffy, lhassapoo, passed peacefully from this earth on August 12, 2010, in the arms of her caretakers, Steve and Donna Sacks. Madame Buffy was rescued from an abusive circumstance in 1998 by the Partnership for Animal Welfare and was then adopted by Steve and Donna and lived peacefully with us for over 12 years, succumbing to old age and kidney disease at the age of 17 plus. We will sorely miss her sweet personality, her acute intelligence and her warm companionship. We honor the staff of Kindness Animal Hospital in Wheaton MD and the Hillandale Animal Hospital in Silver Spring Md who provided loving care for her over the years. May God rest her soul.

Thank you Made girl for your sweet, kind, & gentle ways. You could calm any storm with a stroke of your beautiful orange fur, pumpkin eyes and sound of your purr. Your were a great play mate & friend to Rocko and then for Chance. You helped Dad read the paper on the computer and loved going to Grandmomma and Poppa's house for vacation. You came to me each night in bed to say goodnight. You liked to hide from Emily who loves you and misses you dearly. Thank you God for sharing Madeline with us. We miss you sweet girl. Until we meet again ...we love you, Suzanne, Miles, and Emily.

My sweet beautiful Madison...you are now at peace with Brutus. I know you love me, but you were lost since his death this past July. Things just were not the same without him, he was there to guide you your entire life, and now you are with him over the rainbow bridge. I miss you both so much. Your death was such a shock to me, such a terrible cancer, so fast. You tried to tell me in my dream you were going, and the night before I had to let you go, you kissed me good-bye. You were the sweetest, most loving adorable precious girl a Mommy could ever ask for. I will miss you forever..until I see you again one day....I love you miss priss...

To Madison 
The most wonderful caring selfless personality I have experienced 
I will always remember your beautiful face and look forward to seeing you in Heaven one day 
Thank you for bringing so much joy into our lives. We will never, ever forget you and we are honored to have had to as our dog 
Love,

Your family.

Our Dearest Maggie,

         How many names did we give you...maybe a dozen...Mookie, The Mook Mook...Magasorous...Magarificus...Princess Maggie...Mook From Ook and The Mookinator. There is not a day that has gone where our hearts don't ache from the loss of your sweet soul. You were so full of life when you were stuck down with an illness so fast. We would give anything to hold you again. To see those sweet loving eyes and play hide and seek just one last time. But now we know that we made the hardest choice ever, to give you to God and have you be at peace and never hurt again. Daddy misses you so much, his Maggie girl that was the puppy gem of his eye. Mommy just wants to come home and see you laying on the sofa waiting for you special hugs from her. You were my best friend always at myside while I studying for my boards....always giving me paw as if to say "Okay sissy enough lets go play". We watched you grow from a wild puppy into the companion of a lifetime. The first one to cuddle up to us when we were sad and never left our side when we were ill or in need. You opened your heart to litle Lulu when we she made her way into our family. The first moment you saw her you picked her up with your soft mouth and carried her to the car with a look of " OK I have the midget let's go home". The countless things that the two of you did together now seem so long ago. Your sweet soul was always willing to welcome one more addition to our K-9 family! When Jackson and Bailey joined the family you played with them as if you were their mommy. You were and still are the perfect example of kindless and love. The last few days of your life were so hard for you and us. We want you to know that we love you more than words could ever express. The sad reminder of when you passed with those sweet of yours eyes still open breaks our hearts. We will never forget you and one day when we come to the Rainbow Bridge all our sorrow will fade and once again we will all get to hold our Maggie. We laid you to rest under your favorite tree and everytime I come home I blow you a kiss and say "Hey Mook". Rest peacefully our sweet girl.

      Love,  
      Daddy, Mommy, Miranda, Lulu, Jackson and Bailey

Our Hearts go out to Maggie....You are loved by many...We miss you. Rest in peace

Thank you, my dear Magpie, for helping me through the deaths of parents, greeting me every morning and being attuned to my every need. I would like to think I did the same for you. Today you licked my leg, let me get my first cup of coffee, and then collapsed. The cancer in your stomach and spleen that we discovered 2 hours later let you leave us quickly and without pain. But you left us so quick. You were with me at 6 AM this morning. By noon you were gone. You even had your breakfast! Dad and I love you so much. Trixie and Meggie are missing you too and we will never forget our beautiful, smart Maggie.
Mom

Goodbye our sweet, sweet, Maggie Mae. We never thought this day would arrive, but sadly, it did. We fell in love with you the moment we first saw you and that love only grew so much deeper. I feel so lost without you, "herding" me to fix your dinner, or take you for a walk, or just get some loving. Daddy misses taking you for walks on the golf course and having you wait patiently by his side as he hit buckets of balls (after you chased some rabbits, of course)... Then it got to the point when you couldn't run, or jump or "herd" us and we knew you needeed to be with God in Heaven with all the other sweet doggies. I know that one day we will meet again, and you will come running to greet me with kisses all over my face and wipe away my tears as only you can. I love you, my sweet, sweet, Maggie girl....Mommy

My baby girl, I miss you so much already. I look down the stairs to see if you are there waiting to go outside, and I want once again to chase you around the yard. You never complained, even when you swam out in ice cold water to retrieve that duck or goose, and sat there on the bank with ice on your coat, patiently waiting to do it all again. In your old age I wasn't as patient as I should have been, but loved you still the same. We will meet again at the rainbow bridge, and go for another walk where I can tell you what a great girl you are. You raised my grandchildren with a kiss, and they will miss you as much as Jackie and I do. I will always love and remember you...there will never be another like you. Your journey was quick and painless my sweet lady, but I grieve like I lost a daughter. God will walk you now, he loves you as much as I do.

Norm

To our sweet girl, Maggie. we are at a loss without you here in our lives, but the pain you were in made it wrong to keep you with us.You will always be in our hearts, thoughts, mind and in our prayers. Mommy, Daddy and Bob wish we could see you once more at the window, waiting to go for a walk, drinking from your bottle, eating cookies and snuggled up in the blankets. Until we see you at the Rainbow Bridge, love you always, Mommy, Daddy and Bob.

This tribute is to honor my baby Maggie. My husband I a got her after being married 10 months and she was 8 weeks old. She was my first cat and probably my last.

She lost many teeth over her life and every once and awhile her little tongue would stick out. I had to have some pictures of her doing that. I would try and touch her tongue. Sometimes she'd let me touch her tongue without pulling it back in her mouth. It was always a big deal when she stuck her tonque and I'd call my daughter and husband to see.

Like all our beloved pets Maggie had many habits that made her unique. Her nick name was boo boo. She was such a tiny cat but had the loudest purr. When she was younger I would play hide and seek with her. My husband would play the foot game. Sticking his foot out of the bed covers Maggie would attack his foot and bite it with all her might. Ouch!

I adored everything about my Maggie. I would get such joy out of being with her and just admiring her beauty as she slept. She was spoiled like a queen and never denied.

I miss her terribly and wish I could have one more day or even one more hour with her. I still expect to see her on our bed or in any one of her many sleeping spots.

I have to believe she has passed over and I will be reunited with her one day.

Thank you for all your comfort and for and for allowing me to share a little about my boo boo with you.

Linda

Dear Maggie Mae,

I know that your life was cut terribly short. In the few short years that we were able to share in your life, you brought nothing but happiness and joy into our lives, our hearts and our home. Your beautiful smile, energetic attitude and sweet face always filled us with love and a sense of being. Your sweet disposition and love everyone attitude was nothing short of a breath of fresh air. Your sweet kisses and love nuzzles kept us warm and safe at night. We wanted you to know that we are so very sorry that they couldn't save you but please know that mommy and daddy and the doctors did everything they could but your tiny little body just had enough. It's now time for you to be in heaven with grampy and poppy, Billy and everyone else that never had the chance to share in your life on earth. I pray that they all find as much happiness in you that we did and that you are healthy and happy and feel no pain, only happiness, peace and joy. This tribute is to you little Mae, your memories will live in us forever. We love you baby girl. And always remember... "Daddy's home!!!" Love mommy and daddy

I love you so..
Rest now, my friend, forever free of fear
Look after the part of my soul that went with you, and thank you, with all my heart.
Run free, my little one, with Jack and Molly and Lonesome--
Play unhindered and unafraid in the fields of God
And wait for me..
Love, Mom

A tribute to Mama Kitty,

I knew this feral cat called Mama Kitty who had so many liters and that’s why she was named such. She lived where I worked and I saw her everyday I worked. I fed her, loved her and was eventually able to pick her up and give her back rubs which she really loved. My first summer there we became quite the pair and once she became familiar with the sound of my voice and presence, granted me permission to be her friend and we’d have long conversations ( a little one sided but I didn’t mind) and Mama knew (like many animals I knew/know) that I loved them and her. We knew one another for a little over seven years and now she is gone due to old age and a bad cold but this little tough ass cat was a true survivor braving the elements, other animals, management & frequent liters (till we managed to catch and spay her) and kept on going for about 15 years! She was a tough old cat alright and on June 19, 2009 passed away in my arms very quietly and peacefully and I considered myself proud and honored to have helped her on her journey into heaven but oh how we miss her.

How this one little cat touched so many is uncanny and the out pouring of love for her since has touched everyone’s heart, especially mine. There hasn’t been a day go by that I have not seen her standing at our backdoor and if I’ve seen her once there I’ve seen her 100 times since and just wanted her to know it’s okay with me for she lives in my heart and the hearts of many who became so used to seeing her each and everyday, I’d be honored to go on seeing her there for she was truly a part of that shop. This is a tribute to spirit, to bravery, to love, to Mama Kitty. I/we love you very much and you will never be farther than our hearts. God bless.

We will always miss you and you are in our hearts forever

For our beautiful special girl, Marley, who loved to eat, snuggle, and socialize with people and animals alike. You brought so much love into our lives.

Thank you for your loyalty and companionship.

We will miss you being underfoot in the kitchen, running to the door to meet us, barking when the cell phone rang (food delivery!), falling asleep to your favorite music, and licking us awake to feed you and let you out. There is so much more we could can add to this list. 11 1/2 years was a long time together but not long enough.

We love and miss you already.

A TRIBUTE TO OUR VERY SPECIAL WESTIE ANGEL

She was born on December the 12th 1997 in Ohio and what a special day it was for the Westie World! This little ball of fur may have been one of the smallest in the litter but she had the heart and soul of a dog 5 times her size! We will never forget the excitement of picking her up on February 8, 1998 and driving her home; most of the time spent between being held by her mom and, sitting in a box. After all, we had waited 8 weeks until we were given the green light to get her and we couldn't wait to show her the new home she would reside in for the next 12 1/2 years. First we had to take her to introduce her to her grandma and grandpa. Everyone fell in love with her at first sight. Why not, she loved everyone and everyone was her friend. Her name would become Marni, her formal name The Dutchess Grand Marnier of Sturbridge, taken from my favorite liquor Grand Marnier!

Over the years we built a bond with Marni, the kind of relationship that books are written about and movies are made. We watched her grow and we watched her love and learn everything that came her way, she was truly the Energizer Bunny. From chasing squirrels who would constantly taunt her and appeared to become her friends, smelling the scent of deer in the woods behind our house and, storming off after them and barking like crazy, only to have the whole herd stare back at her on the upper deck, somewhat bored by the whole scene. We watched as she learned that eating plants was not good, chewing rugs was bad and what mom and dad did not like. We watched the seasons change and we watched Marni change, we watched as she went from a little hellion to a sophisticated little lady that loved to have fun. From running through the snow, grabbing the paper out of my hand when she demanded my attention, laying and playing in all of the Christmas decorations when we were trying to get things done and, playing with her toys and running until exhaustion for her and us! Marni really loved all of the holidays, she especially loved opening Christmas presents on Christmas morning and trips to grandma and grandpas. Marni never learned to go down the stairs; I guess I wanted it that way so she could not bolt off. However, even if we were gone for an hour or several hours, she would greet us from the top of the stairs with barking that could be heard for blocks until we picked her up! Marni was one for many hugs and kisses, but of course you had to chase her for several minutes before you could pick her up so she could reward you with them! At night, Marni allowed us to sleep with her even though it was our bed, she was our kiss goodnight and our morning sunshine!

Over the years when we traveled and Marni could not go, she stayed with Aunt Jane and Uncle Albert. Marni could not wait to go there because they had a cat name Rusty. When they first met, you would have thought that no two animals could hate each other any more than they demonstrated. Well after a few visits, they played together and even slept together. Of course that was Marni, she had so much love to give, once again, demonstrating that her worst enemy became her best animal friend. She also stayed with her brother Curt, they really loved each other. He bought her a big black stuffed horse for Christmas. It was 5 times bigger than her and she played with it for hours, it became her favorite toy. Marni traveled with mom and dad, too. However, she never seemed that thrilled with the ride to the Outer Banks, Virginia and Lake Erie. She tolerated it once she was there a day or two; she made the best of it. One past time on vacation that she did enjoy was fishing! Whether there was fish on the line or not, she got the biggest thrill out of Dad casting his rod. When a fish was on, she went berserk!! In the big picture, I think her heart was at home chasing squirrels, deer and staying with Rusty! Marni liked her routine!

The past four years were very challenging for Marni. In September of 2006, she was diagnosed with diabetes and we did not know the challenges that would bring for her and mom and dad. When we look back at the vet coming out to tell us and asking if we want to put her to sleep we looked at each other scratching our heads, how could anyone consider that? With that said, we found out over the next several years just how intense it is to keep up with the disease. We had to give her 2 shots every day, learn about special foods and diets, regulate her glucose levels and take her to the vet on a regular basis. During that time we had some emergency trips to vets for urinary tract infections, pancreatitis, and other illnesses and to deal with her eyes. Marni communicated so well with her eyes, when she lost her ability to bark, her eyes became her means of getting her points across. A few years ago, to save her sight, we had cataract eye surgery done so she could continue to see the squirrels and deer. It was very expensive but would do it again in a heartbeat as she never lost her sight!! With that said, we had to give her 5 different eye drops per day, two times a day from that point on, once again never questioning any of it. Why would we, it was Marni that was going through all this; it was Marni that taught us how to handle all these things with dignity and grace. It was Marni who came into the kitchen to get her shot every morning and night. It was Marni who gave mom and dad a life lesson on how to take on adversity with courage and strength and deal with it with such spirit with a wag of her tail!

On June 16th, 2010 mom and dad lost their very special Westie angel after battling pneumonia, diabetes and an array of other medical problems. It was just too much for her to deal with this time and it was very difficult to say goodbye. Sometimes you have to wonder why an animal that has so much love, so much to give and brings so much joy, is only here for such a short time. In her case, there is only one easy answer and, that is, that she was an angel that she had earned her wings long before entering the pearly gates. The time had come for us to return her to heaven. She was put here to teach us and all those who knew her a valuable lesson. Keep your head up no matter what is thrown at you, play hard every day, give unconditional love and most of all be happy no matter what life has to offer and a wag of the tail never hurts!!!

Rest in peace baby, our little hero, our perfect little girl. Thank you for all of the joy you have given us, thank you for everything you have taught us! We look forward to seeing you again when we are called home, we will meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

Love
Mom and Dad (Fred and Joan)

My sweet Marley, It was almost a week ago that I left you for two days for work...when I came home you were in the hospital..I had such hope that you would recover..you actually stood up to follow me out the door when I left, and Dr. Furman said that was a good sign..but the next morning he called to say you had passed in your sleep..I wish I had taken you home with me, but you were in loving helpful hands. You gave me six wonderful years..brought me through chemo& radiation for breast cancer..you were my angel.Tonight driving home I saw the most wonderful rainbow..I now know you have reached the bridge,and you will be there when I reach it too..Will miss you forever my sweet boy!

To our very special Martie,

Our dear little girl, we will miss you so. Please know how much we love you.

Until we are together again forever -
Love,

A finer gentleman there never was. We love you our precious boy. We will miss you greatly. Rest In Peace, Our Little Maxie-Man. Till we meet again.

The most wonderful little boy left for Rainbow Bridge this evening. We shared 17 happy years and he made me laugh more than any cat I've ever known. Just an "ordinary" gray and white tabby, but he was my best friend. These words are so inadequate, I know all of you folks reading this have lost someone as dear and special to you as Max was to me, so you understand that there's just no way to describe the little souls that come into our lives and show us what real love is.

See you one day on the other side, Max my boy. 17 years was not enough.

Kate

Max you were a member of our family that will never be forgotten. Your comforting presence got me through a rough divorce and you were always there to listen to my kids when they shared secrets with you that only the three of you will know. You helped Emily learn to read as you sat patiently and listened to her books she would bring home from the library. I miss you- I think of you everywhere in this house- you made it a home. Always know that we love you and thank you for the time we shared. Someday our tears will dry but the memories will never fade. Love ya, Max xoxoxoxo

To my boy, Max, I cannot believe you are gone, you were the best dog in the whole world, there will never be another Max, never ever. Your sweetness, patience, letting Pebbles push you around then Rosebud, you never wanted to dominate you just wanted to be happy go lucky Max :) I will miss you barking at suppertime, sleeping with me at night, waiting for the bus for Madison, playing ball with Dad, i will miss everything about you, i am so sorry you had a stroke, i thought you were going to be here for at least another year, i was not prepared for you to suddenly go, its not fair, the house is so lonely without you, I hope pebbles doesn't torture you up there, but i know you will be happy there until i see you again, my boy, i love you, madi and daddy and dum dum rosebud loves you too. You are the best Max...xxoo

Mommy

To Our Dearest Friend & Schnauzer Max,

We remember the exact day that you came into our lives on March 20, 1999. You lived in that awful dump of an apartment occupied by 3 people; one sleeping on a plain mattress on the dining room floor. I remember clearly how you came running out of the bathroom after your bath and headed straight towards me as I sat on the floor. We were instant friends and I knew in that moment you were going to be a part of our family. We loved you immediately, and I think you felt the same way about us.

It wasn't easy for you during the first few months with us, going through a painful surgery and then heart worm treatments. You bounced back quickly though, and didn't hold any hard feelings against us. I think you knew that we only wanted you to be healthy. You were such an energetic puppy and loved to play. I remember throwing your toy and playing with you for hours. Occasionally, we would knock something over and get in trouble with Jennifer - well she was never really mad. In the apartment, you loved to look out for us from the third floor window, and bark at birds in the palm tree. When we moved into our house, you made it your home instantly. Now we had a larger area to throw your toy. We had so much fun.

When we learned you were a diabetic, you took it in stride; never once giving us any trouble with giving you your insulin shot. You, of course, expected the treat that followed though. You are such a great dog.

Now you're gone and I miss you so much it hurts. It's not the same without you here. I'd do anything to hear the jingling of your harness again or see you pace in circles in front of me to say, where's dinner. I miss the way you would bounce towards me as you chased me in the yard.

You made us so happy. Sometimes I think that I should've paid more attention to you or played with you more. I never meant to miss out on our opportunities. I'd give anything to have those back again.

I can't begin to describe how difficult this letter is to type through the tears of my eyes. I felt I should type it to get all of my feelings down before life goes on and time slips away.

Maxwell, you were my dog, my best fury friend, my comforter, my play mate, and could put a smile on my face by just being here. You helped me to be a better person and have made a mark on my heart forever!

Max, please know that we did everything we could within our power to keep you happy and healthy. Even then, you did more for us in our lives then we could ever do for you. Please know that we think about you every second of every day. This is the most difficult time of our lives. Rest in peace, my friend. You are loved more than you could ever realize.

We love you Max!

Forever your friends 
Troy & Jennifer

You are gone In body but not In memories. Today is six months now and the hurt is as real as It was six months ago. Always run free with-out pain and diease. This has always been my wish for you. Love Mom

Max was a very happy boxer boy. No one could believe how old he was because he acted just like a puppy. Max grew up in Florida but when it was time for Mom to be stationed overseas, he went with her. He soon became "proper English". Oh how he loved England. It has perfect summer weather and everyone loves dogs there. He could run in the woods, off his lead, and chase any rabbit he wanted. He was very happy.

Then about a year ago Max's balance was off and he was diagnosed with Peripheral Vestibular Disease. He recovered but keep a slight head tilt and was a little off balance. Then 6 months ago a mole was removed from his inner thigh that was cancer. Then worst of all....Mom had to leave this poor boy and go to Iraq. Nothing remarkable happened with his health while Mom was gone. When she go back...a full week back....her father passed away. Max stayed with the neighbor who has a dog and the two of them played and had such fun. Mom comes back 3 weeks later and he seems fine, a little depressed perhaps, but fine.

Then 5 days later...his breathing is labored, he has lameness, and he's not eating or drinking. Max passed away today at 1415 from an enlarged liver with a mass that was bleeding. He was my buddy...my child. He will be missed terribly.

Meau we miss you with all our Hearts.

You were a wonderful and fun cat I will always remember the silly things you would do that would make us laugh. You were always there for us and your other furry friends. Playing you loved. Our new puppy would play with you and you were so gentle with her.

I know you are in a better place. You were so sick and we did not want you to suffer.

I will cherish the moment when I wasy saying my good-by to you and you kissed me on the nose. Looking into your blue eyes and how I never wanting to let you go.

I love you Meau hugs & kisses my friend.

In Loving Memory of
"Meeko"
February 14, 1996 - December 29, 2009

Memories of you fill my heart with joy
since the day I brought you home
you were Mama's Boy

The fun we had
and love we shared
I just hope you know
how much i really cared

You may not be here in body
but you are here in soul
I will always take you with me
even when im old

I hope you are running
and playing in the snow.
Daddy misses you too
more than you will ever know

The Girls and kitties
miss you too
wishing they could play with you
and lay with you
like they used to do

Our hearts are heavy and aching
without you here at home
but we have happy thoughts of you
being able to safely roam

Meeko we want you to have fun
So go run and play
Mama will be able to hold you and hug you again
when its my turn to come home to stay

Meeko, Mama will always remember you and always love you with all my heart. You were the BEST friend I ever had. I know you are up in Heaven playing and having fun .. just like we did when you were here with me. You must have already met my PaPa and I know you are together. Dont be afraid Mama's Boy, he will take great care of you until i can be there with you. I miss you so much...Please come see me in my dreams. 143 Meeko....143

Meesha, you will always be my BFF. I was so very blessed to have had you with me with over 13-1/2 years. You were so special and filled my life with so much joy and companionship, I will always be so grateful for your love and loyalty. Your spirit will always be with me and I carry you in my heart and soul for as long as I live.
Love you, Mom

Megan-

My heart is broken by your passing so quickly. I don't know that I will ever heal. You are my baby, my best friend, my faithful companion. Always so eager to meet me at the door to give kisses and get a belly rub. The way you would turn in circles, so excited to get a small bowl of ice cream.

You loved every person you met, even if they didn't love you. You brought joy when there was sorrow, you gave comfort when there was sickness. You filled my life and heart with love. I hope in some way you understand the difficult and heartbreaking decision we had to make. We couldn't put you through any more.

I hope you are with Mikki, frolicking in the sunshine and flowers. Know that I will always miss you, love you, and that you'll be in my heart and prayers forever.

Until we meet again, my little girl.

Mommy

You were the most loving cat even if most people did not agree, I want to thank you to choose me has your only friend. I needed you so much when you came in my life and want to thank you to have fulfill my needs for love and friendship and leave me two daughters (cats) for me to love in return. Thanks for all the kisses and purring on my lap when watching TV. Thanks to be my confident, you know more than anybody else in my life. Thanks to lift my spirit when I was down and show me so much love. Thanks to be in my life and help me with the fact that I have no children. God haD you in my life for a purpose, it was time to go, you have done your deed, rest in peace and I will never forget yo. THANK YOU MICHA! LOVE AND LOST OF KISSES!!

My dear boy...  
It seems like yesterday I rescued you from your tormentor. A scruffy little black puppy who looked so like Mickey Mouse..you were named within hours.

I was told.. there was nothing wrong with you, that love and food wouldn't fix. And it did. Healthy and shiny black..my lovely boy.

Truly old man..if a dog could be the epitome of perfection..it is you. Having to say goodbye to you today was like slicing off a part of my heart, for you took part of it with you.

As I sit here...no brown eyes looking up at me..my heart is breaking. Wait at the gate for me old man...I'll be there before you know it. In the mean time...give a kiss to Abby, Amanda..Laddy and Babe. You have your own pack there sweet boy. When I enter the gate...how great it will be to see you and my other furbabies again.

I miss you so much I can hardly breathe...Rest in Peace my darling...darling boy.

Hi Mickey,

How's my buddy? Just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday. Another year and I miss you as much as the day we said goodbye. You will always have a huge place in my heart. Hope you're doing well. One day we'll be together again.

Love you always!
Stef

Our good boy and best friend Mickey left us on Friday, January 15, 2010, after 15 loyal years. We are so sad and miss him soooo much!! We wish we could just run our fingers through his fur one more time. You were the best dog ever and we had so much fun with you. There will never be another dog like you Mickey!!

You were such a Blessing when you came into my life 17 years ago. During those years we've traveled many places together, enjoyed lots of animal and people family and friends, shared oh so many walks, runs and play time. You were there for me and licked away my tears when I lost my parents and other loved ones. I never knew I could miss anyone as much as I do you. Our house is so empty. I can't seem to stop looking for you. You were suffering so, I had to let you go even though I can't forgive myself. I am rejoicing for you as I know you are having a wonderful time now, free from all pain, you can see and hear again, run and play with no arthritis, your horrible skin cancer is gone, no more Vet visits, but mostly, you're free from all sickness, aches and pains. There won't be a day or night go by that I won't be thinking of you and missing you. You will always be in my heart. Always know how very much you are/were loved. You left me with 17 years of wonderful memories that will never be forgotten. I will see you again, "my precious little baby girl"
Love,
Your Mom

Midnight AKA Poochink, you stayed with me to the end, you were my best friend, you were never any trouble, I love you dearly, see you at the bridge

Mikey,

You were loved so much and we grieve for you and miss you terribly. We know someday we'll be reunited. In the meantime... we'll try and find comfort knowing you have reunited with your brothers Smokey and Maverick and your cousins Sassy, Murphy, and Fred and all the others who passed on long before you. We'll think of you everyday and with every rainbow that we see or the brightest star that shines...will be your way of letting us know you are running free.

We love and miss you our beloved Mikey.

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

When Mike got you, you were only one year old. The first year of your life was a little traumatic, and we saw the effects but always loved you. I came into the picture in 2001 and you needed some time to warm up to me because I seemed to be taking away your 'man':) Mike and you always had a special relationship and he was the one who got to hold you in the end while I pet you Millay, we will always love you. You were our fur-baby, but more than that. You know we couldn't have children, and you were our child, even though Mike kept saying you were in fact, a dog. You were faithful, even though you had some aggression/anxiety issues. Those were not your fault. We know now that you are healed and they are gone. All is perfect and you are waiting for us. You are the dog that God intended for you to be. We will remember all the good things about you - your dancing, your strong nudges on my hand to "please pet me!" Your sleeping on or next to my legs at night even though it woke me up numberous times! I still loved it and I miss it so. We never had flies in our house for long because you hunted them! How fast you ate your food, and then tried to eat Maia's! You always seemed to succeed in that, even though I kept watch. You loved rides in the car! We never needed a leash on you when we said, "Go for a ride?" You dashed to the car door and waited for us impatiently to let you in. Your love of french fries, even though we knew they weren't that great for you. Your little doggy bed. You curled up in it so delicately. YOur watchful eye at the window. What a good guard dog you made. We were never worried about robbers with you around. Your beautiful markings, that kept getting more and more grey. Your toenails that would get so long b/c ypou wouldn't let anyone clip them. You loved walking but would stray from the sidewalk so often. Very adventurous. I miss throwing tennis balls to you. I miss the way you greeted us with such excitement when we got home. I miss your barking at the window even though it drove us crazy. I miss waking up and bringing you and Maia outside. You two would fight to get out of the door first! Know that we love you and always will. You will always have a special place in our hearts. Enjoy all the other fur-babies at the Bridge.
We love you, Millay.

MILLIE - Our dear little Jack Russell Terrier was born on the 01/01/1998 .We got her in June 2000. MILLIE died on last Thursday the 08/07/2010 after being injured with my van. I am gutted to say in the least. Millie went everywhere with me. I never thought something like this would happen with myself. Despite her having two operations in recent times, she was in fairly good health. Millie, I loved you from the first moment my daughter Denise brought you through our front door. I am thankful that we had 10 lovely years together. You brought so much joy and love to my life. They were the best years ever. You were my best friend and my life, I do not know what I will do without you. You were a huge part of my every day life. It was a sudden accident and you suffered no pain, but the fact that I was behind the steering wheel makes it the more difficult for me. I hope that I will be able to get over it. Anee, my wife and my two daughters Eva and Denise will sincerely miss you, and if there is such thing as heaven for dogs, I hope we will meet again. LOVE PETER, ANNE, EVA AND DENISE JENNINGS

Little Man you were the kindest,happiest Pekingese I ever had the pleasure to know. You loved with all your heart. You brought so much joy into every life you touched. I know that you are with Matilda again and I know that you are happy. I will miss you every day that we are separated and I long for the day that I can hold you again and play with the rest of our family. You will always be Daddy's Little Man.

My litle baby Min mins,
I love so much and I miss you with all my heart, you were so special to me sweetheart, and I can't forgive myself that I wasn't with you at the end. I will never replace the love that you gave to me when I never realised how poorly you were. My lovely beautiful Minmins I have cried every day and I miss you so much, I Love you Night night God Bless, Mummy xxxx

Minnie, you were one of the family the minute you came through the door. Although you were a senior, you always had an adolescent spirit. We thought the chemotherapy was working and you had a good fighting chance, in the end we were just a little too late. You were a trooper through it all and we will miss you greatly. Now you are with Killian and have a friend to guide you through. Love and miss you.

Tracy J. Flitcraft

Mini, I remember like today, the first time I saw you. You were 1 month old, very, very tiny, with beautiful soft black hair. You even fitted in our pockets, remember? At first as you know, I was reluctant about getting another dog, because I was still mourning Motita, but thanks to Tuty, Yari and Tammy that they wanted to keep you, and......am I glad we did!!! Instantly, our house was filled with joy and laughter, when you, our "little princess" walked in.

When you were strong, you had so much energy. You played all the time, running up and down the house; and when outside in the yard, you'd bark at anybody or anything near the fence, always so protective! You followed us everywhere. No wonder your little bed was right next to ours! Remember how much you loved going on a ride with daddy? Also, when daddy would come home from work I'd say "daddy's here," it was so cute to see you bark and run so fast, to the door, to wait for him. You always greeted us with so much love and joy. It was like a celebration for you to see us get home; like you had not seen us in ages. Mini you stole our hearts with your perky personality. You became part of our family, and more so, part of our lives.

Sadly enough, this year everything changed. Your health started to deteriorate so quickly. It was so hard for us, and more so for you, when you lost your eyesight. You were confused everytime you bumped into things. You could no longer see us......not even your little plate of food. We guided and helped you to make it easier. We made sure you had everything near and that you felt comfortable at all times. You were our baby!!! Then...... it was that terrible cough due to the lung condition. Then the pain that did not allowed you to walk, stand, or even move. We tried so hard!!! We carried you, handfed you and many times layed right next to you trying to ease your pain. We knew then, that it was time, we knew we had to make a very difficult and painful decision of "no more suffering" for....."Our little Angel." Although we miss you so much, is almost unbearable, we take comfort in knowing that you are no longer in pain.

Mini not having you anymore is so hard, it hurts. Daddy and I miss so many things about you: seeing you on you favorite spot, holding and kissing you, telling you over and over "Mamita loves you", we miss your barks, your licks, your unforgettable expressions, and your favorite.....rubbing your belly!

We know you are resting in a peaceful and happy place. I hope to see you again when I cross the rainbow bridge myself, but for now play and have fun with Motita, Princess, Brownie, Junior, Penny and Paulie. We thank God so much for sending YOU to us at a time when we needed you. You were and will always be an angel sent from heaven!!!

We love you Mini forever, rest in peace, love and kisses from your family, Mami, Papi, Tuty, Yari and Tammy.

Minnie, you lived a long and adventurous life and were a part of our lives for a long time. We will miss you very much. I was just a kid when you came into my life and I can't imagine looking back on those days without you in them. Thank you for blessing our lives and choosing us as your family. We will remember you forever. Rest in peace, little one.

Mishee, What we have enjoyed, we can never lose. All that we love deeply, becomes a part of us...

I adopted Mishee the day before Thanksgiving 2001, It did not take me long to realize how "thankful" I would be for making the decision to bring her into my life. Over the last nine years, I dealt with good times, bad times and uncertain times, people came into my life and people drifted out of my life and through it all there was Mishee. She was fierce, not very big at all but she was unafraid to take on anything. She had a soft spot for my Boycat Joshua. To say Joshua was shy was an understatement, he was afraid of his own shadow, he was a rescue cat who had been abused. He was given to me for my birthday 3 years before. Mishee and Joshua became fast friends and Mishee became his protector as they ventured outside together to play and hang out. Truth be told I really tried to make them indoor cats yet I reluctantly gave in to Mishees desire to go out and chase birds and lizards, that's what made her happy, that was "Mishee". Mishee even became a first for a very very special person in my life, "the first cat she ever pet" The minute they met, it was like Mishee was determined to charm her and make her overcome her fear of cats. It worked they had a very special bond, everytime she came over Mishee was all over her, rubbing up against her, "loving her". That was Mishee, her love and courage was palpable. Mishee spent her last moments in her favorite place, amongst the trees and amongst nature. I will miss her so so much but I am so thankful for the time we had, Rest in Peace Mishers!!

My lil' boy Mi-Mi. I miss you so much it breaks my heart to see your pictures. When I first got you from off the street as a kitten the doctor didn't think you were going to make it but you pulled through because you were a lil toughy and gave grandma and me 8 wonderful years. I miss you cuddling with me and purring on my shoulder. I even miss you pulling my hair with your claws at 4am because you were hungry and wanted to eat. ;) I just cannot believe you are gone. One day you were OK then the next a horrible decline.(Turns out my baby had cancer in his intestines. Within 7 days I had to make the horrible decision to put him to sleep after exploratory surgery showed he had cancer in his intestines.)The house seems so empty and your brother Simba misses you so much. He misses chasing you around the house. I have your ashes on the mantle and I visit you everyday and tell you I love you. But you probably already knew that. Please wait for me, grandma and Simba at the bridge. Before you know it we will be all together again. Until then, find Cuddles, Precious, Teenie and Baby. They will keep you company until Mommy can get there. I Love you my little boy. No kitty will ever take your place in my heart. xoxoxoxoxoxo

Our Miss Bailey Button was perfect in every way. She was our sunshine and will be missed forever . . . . . . . .until one day we cross the rainbow bridge and are reunited. Until then Miss Bailey, we love you forever!!

Miss Billie was a wonderful big ol Great Pyranees who loved to sit on her hill and protect us from predators like possums, coons and trains! She was 13 years old which is very old for a big dog like her. She was a gentle soul who loved and was loved very much and will be sorely missed.

September 2nd was hardest day for so many that have cherished her all her life
Like all people there are times when we must face a decision alone
It is so very hard to be so brave and do the right thing
This lil one had brought so much joy into our lifes
It is so very hard to let go of something you love so much
But we have to think of the one that is suffering and it is time for her to rest
We have shed many tears over this decision and we are so lucky to have each other
Someone that cares and has helped each other along the way
We will miss the walks and the snuggles at bedtime with her
You are so missed our life seems so empty without you here
Miss C you will always be in our heart
We love you Miss C please sleep and rest you will be there with no pain
You will again be able to run free thru the grass you so love
Please know this Miss C our arms will always be wrapped around you
To protect you and love you always and forever
We will miss you so much our heart breaks without you here
One day we will be back together again you can run to us
With your tail wagging so happy to see each other again
Until that day we will cherish all the memories we have of you
Hugs and kisses Miss C
Love you Mom and Dad

My Dear Miss Cuddles  
It has been 2 years since you crossed over to Rainbow Bridge, You have been missed terribly. Meemo Kitty from My Space still misses you so much.You were such dear precious friend, and have left a void in my life. I know you are running in soft green fields, laying under a beautiful shade tree and playing with all those who have gone before you. I love you still Miss Cuddles:):)
Your MaMa

MY LITTLE MISTY GIRL, YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE FOR ME WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, YOU WILL BE MISSED GREATLY, BUT YOU WILL LIVE ON FOREVER IN MY HEART

CALVIN BROWNHILL

My loyal companion, you will be missed. You leave a hole in my life and I know you are in a good place. Good Night.

Mister Wiggins: My Gentle Giant

Mister Wiggins was diagnosed with CRF (kidney failure) in December 2008. He was so courageous to battle this and other health complications throughout his life. I know in my heart that I did my absolute best to do everything I could to improve his quality of life. That is how I know I love him. He was a huge part of my heart which is why I'm so deeply saddened. I truly believe that he has moved on to a better life and is no longer in pain. I have faith that there is somewhere special out there that God created for all animals to live on in eternity. I know that I will see him someday. He meant so much to me and will always be my world. I will never forget him and will remember him forever.

I'm blessed that I was given the chance to show him mercy at the end. I felt in my heart that it was definitely time for him to move on and made that very difficult decision. Dr. Robinson, and the great folks at Terrell Mill Animal Hospital did everything in their power to keep him alive and living well. They were so compassionate to make his journey on to his new life very peaceful and caring.

It's not just me who feels at such a loss. He had an impact on a lot of people and stole other's hearts too. I have a need to thank Mark & Christopher for giving me Mister Wiggins. I want to thank Cornelia, Ariane, Corey, & Minty for all the love they showed him. Thank you Dr. Johnson for all of your great help and support. Thank you Dr. Robinson, Laura, and everyone at TMAH for all of your sincere care and genuine interest in healing him.

After leaving him to sleep, I spent most of the day working on a fitting musical tribute to honor his life and celebrate who he truly was. I will always remember him being so alive and loving life. How he'd try to steal food away from me. How he took 2-3 steps and then took a hard fall on his side. How he would be fascinated with the outside world, stare at the birds, chase the squirrels. How he looked at me with his big eyes. How he'd look in the mirror, and I'd always wonder what he sees. How he rammed his nose into my hand in his way of telling me he loved me. The last thing that I felt from him was him telling me that he loved me and purring at me.

I love you Wiggins, with all of my heart. Goodbye my best buddy.

My video tribute to him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9YmPsBNXjg

Misty -

We are so sorry to lose you, but it was time that you ran and joined your brother up on the bridge.  
You loved to play ball, but would not bring it back - you placed it by your paw and said "come get it and throw it again".  
You loved to cuddle and jump up on the corner of the lazyboy when I was stitching, back in and put your head on the arm of the chair - your brother was laying across my lap.  
The house seems so empty since you left but I think about you daily. You were a very good girl and we are so sorry that you are gone. Someday, we will always be together up on the brige. Love you,  
Mom

Little Misty Girl, I love you so much, and today's decision was an agonizing one. It was so hard to let you go, but I just couldn't let you suffer, and I didn't want you to pass on in the arms of strangers. You have given me so many years of love and companionship. You truly were a gift from God sent special delivery from Heaven at a time in my life when I really needed a friend; needed love. You gave me unconditional love. You were such a cute little thing but packed a big attitude. I used to have so much fun getting you to howl. You always had my back. Your spot on the sofa seems so empty without you there. Now you are reunited with your offspring that has gone on before you. I will miss you greatly, but will always carry you in my heart. Sleep well sweat pea. I love you.

Mom

Oh our pretty Sue,

How we will miss you! Your heart failed you because it was so big and so loving and you gave so much to your family. Daddy and I and Scooby are going to be lost without you. Will you wait for us on the other side with your brother Remington? You won't have to suffer any more, my Sue girl. Thank you for choosing us to be your Mommy and Daddy, we will love you forever.

Mommy, Daddy, Jenn and Scooby

oh mittens you've gone to kitty heaven to join your brother Baby....there will forever be a void no one can fill.. miss you son more than you know.... the look in your eyes has pierced my soul...i cant get you out of my heart forever RIP son till we meet again. Hoping you and baby are frolicking ...pain free luv n u guys... momma Sonia

Our gorgeous boy, our little priest, my little nudge. How hard we tried to fix you but nothing would work. I wish we could have done more. I find this so hard Mittens, you were Mommy's boy. We will always love our little kitten Mittens.

Happy 11th. birthday in Heaven sweetheart. God bless you baby. Miss you.

I truly understand the meaning of the phrase, "Man's Best Friend." My sweet little tan angel Mitzi passed away on March 16, 2010. Unfortunately I had to make a difficult and heartwrenching decision, as she was diagnosed with cancer of the spleen and liver. We had a wonderful, fun filled life together and didn't want her to suffer in anguish only to have her for what the vet told me would be a very short time. I chose to do what was best for her and not be selfish enough to let her go on and wind up in pain and suffering. Too much respect and love for her to allow that. Feeling empty without her and miss all the things we did together. She even came to work with me at my job. I feel her presence every day and it helps to know that she's with me in spirit. Just hurts not to be able to hug her and have her lick my face when I asked her to give me a kiss. Until we meet at the Rainbow Bridge sweetie, God is your new master and I know will keep you in his care until we meet again. I love you with all my heart and your companionship and the role you played in my life will never be forgotten. "Man's Best Friend".....My Best Friend.

Poor Mitzy. You suffered for a long time more than I knew. I am sorry for that. You are free now. You are healthy and happy and you are reunited with your brother Tigger and your friend Tuffy. I am sure that they were happy to see you. You will be a wonderful guardian angel kitty. I will see you again, for Heaven won't be Heaven for me with out you and the rest of my animal family. I will always miss your sweet little face and beautiful green eyes. Daddy and I will love you forever till we see you at the rainbow bridge........

For thirteen years you've shown us all how to love unconditionally. You've been a wonderful friend and companion.
You've been there at the door when we've gone, and sat there for hours, patiently waiting for us when we returned.
You've grown up along with our family and were so much a part of our family and our lives.
But you've also grown old and tired my friend.
There is so much you want to do that your body just won't allow.
It is so hard to say good-bye. We miss you so much already old girl.
Look for us all on the Rainbow Bridge.

We love you Mocha Chip,

Marks & Smith Family

Our precious good girl Mollie,
We are so empty without you. There is such a void. We are mourning you. In our hearts we know we have done the right thing by releasing you. Dr. Lori said the same thing. It was the right decision. We couldn't help you anymore. You were but a shell with no quality of life. Now you won't struggle anymore. You are free from all that.
The joy you have given us for 17 years is something we will always remember till we join you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Give our love to Kami, tell her how much we love her and miss her and we are glad the two of you are together again.
We will never forget your sweetness & spunk and we love you so very, very much. We miss you so much. We see you everywhere. Please help us through this pain. Help us to heal. Bless you.
Mommy & Daddy

Molly, my dear sweet girl. If life were perfect I wouldn't be here writing this, but here I am.I know everyone who comes here says this, but you were the world's best dog, at least the world's best dog for me.

I went to the shelter to get a kitten and came home with you! I always would say, when you had "been bad" that you were supposed to be a cat. That made me laugh because when I had "been bad" my mother would shake her head and say, "you were adopted ya know". Maybe that we were both adoptees gave us an extra-special bond.

Seems like only yesterday that I saw you, those big feet, tan eyebrows, soft ears and beautiful brown eyes, in the "cat room"! The shelter staff told me you had been a Christmas present they didn't want (must have been a heartless crew) and that they left you in the basement for three weeks before bringing you to the shelter. I asked to visit with you, and in the visiting room you crawled over to me, licked my hand and peed on my feet. That was it...love and you came home with me.

I came home one day early in your time with me and you had gotten out of the kitchen. You ate the arm off a loveseat, chewed the corner off the rug, ate my black leather gloves, re-designed my favourite shoes and pulled a huge plant out of its pat. You also chomped the baseboard, and might I add, you were very very pleased with yourself!

You saw me through the death of two parents, the end of a long-term relationship, a two year disability leave..and you always did it with patience, love and compassion. You had many tears cried on your big head, and you always sat quietly while I cried. I will always love you for that.

Dr. Bill loved you too. He always told me that after thirty years of practice you were his favourite dog ever....and when I said he says that to all owners he assured me he absolutely didn't. You never met a person you didn't love. I remember taking you to the local beach, cause you LOVED swimming, and having the kids yell, "Molly's here!" You chased tennis balls and frisbees for them endlessly, and happily swam, with kids hanging on to you. For that reason, some of your ashes are going to be scattered on our favourite beach, so you can always enjoy swimming.

Bruce loved you too, no matter about all the awful things he said about you, kidding of course. He is going to make you a beautiful box. We will make sure to put in a nice smoked bone from the market and your favourite squeakie.

I am doing okay. I knew this day would come, and that my heart would hurt more than I ever thought it would, but I know you didn't like it when I was sad, and that if I were sad, you would want to be here with me. We are going to the shelter today. Some people would say that is much too soon, but it isn't that I am trying to replace you. I am honouring your memory. You showed me how wonderful a shelter dog can be, and I know there are many furbabies waiting to love us, and us them. No puppy can ever ever ever ever take your place. But, again, you taught me that I am a good furbaby momma and there are so many furbabies needing the love and the good home that I can give them.

Molly, I hope you found my dad waiting for you across the bridge. Did you meet Max and Mickey? Was Cowcat happy to see you? How about Didi? Did you find Benson and play with him? I know that now you can hear and see again, and you aren't in pain and embarassing yourself with "accidents"..that you are the happy, goofy, loving, shedding mess of a pound puppy that filled my life with so much love for 14 years.

Molly thank you thank you thank you for all the love and gentleness and laughter of the past 14 years. Someday I hope your eyes will lift, and your ears will perk up and you will come running to me, and I can give you tummy rubs forever. I will think of you every day, and send you ear rubs and tummy rubs and kisses and bones...at least in my thoughts. Bless you my dear Molly, you were a gift from God to me. He knew I would need you, and you did a wonderful job. Kisses, hugs, and tummy rubs from your mom (and Bruce)

Your forever loving furmom Margot

My little Molly was such a wonderful and loving little girl. She made me laugh with her antics and she had such a special personality. From the day we got her when she was 7 weeks old till the day she passed, she brought so much love into our lives. The past 2 years she suffered with seizures, which each time would take some of her away. But on sunday she came down with Mediated auto immune anemia, and we did everything humanly possible to help her.

Thank you baby girl for making me laugh, being my purpose to get up each day, for sharing you short 7 1/2 years with us. Ill miss our walks together, playing bally, and playing with socks your stuffed bear. The side of the bed you slept on is so empty as is my heart, and no other dog will ever fill.

God gave you to us because you were special, and we would be able to take care of you and give you the best life possible. Ill miss your kisses and hearing the squeak of your ball, but most of all daddy and I will miss your unconditional love.

Rip my sweet baby girl.......until we meet at the rainbow bridge.

Miss Molly Pants  
So sad that you had to leave us after 10 1/2 years. You are now with your sisters Mystic and Bridgett. Please behave with them. You will be missed so much by your mommy and daddy. We love you sooo much baby girl. XXOO

MY PRECIOUS MOLLY IT IS SO HARD TO BELEIVE THAT YOU ARE GONE. MY HEART IS BROKEN AND I MISS YOU SO MUCH. YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND AND I WILL KEEP YOU IN MY HEART FOREVER. i HATED TO LET YOU GO BUT HONEY YOU WERE SO SICK AND I DIDNT WANT YOU TO SUFFER. I WILL KEEP YOU YOU IN MY HEART FOREVER AND I HOPE WE WILL BE TOGETHER SOMEDAY. REST IN PEACE MY SWEET BABY. LOVE MOM

Monet Valentine: You were the sweetest, smartest, cutest, most loveable and BEST pet ever. You will be forever missed. Our hearts are broken and it's hard to imagine what life will be without you. We are forever grateful that you were part of our family for 11 1/2 years and that you put up such a valiant fight for the last 2 1/2 years with both Diabetes and Cushings diseases. You stayed with us as long as you could because you knew how much we loved you. We hope that you're now happy, healthy and free of pain on Rainbow Bridge. Love always, Mel, Mercia, van Gogh and Michaelangelo....

Morgan, you came to me as an unwanted rescue dog. My rescue group discovered 2 weeks after agreeing to foster you that you had Cushing's Syndrome. All of us fought a good battle against this disease, but we didn't have a chance to win. I hope that on the "Bridge" you are once a vibrant, beautiful pup who can at least walk again. I'll see you there old friend.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF OUR BOY. MOSES, YOU WERE A GIFT AND A LESSON IN LOVE TO US. YOU WERE AND CONTINUE TO BE OUR FURRY ANGEL BABY. IF LOVED COULD HAVE SAVED YOU - YOU WOULD HAVE LIVED FOREVER. MOMMY AND DADDY MISS YOU, BOY.

Monte Wooley showed up on our front lawn on July 4th, 2001. He never left. In the years that we had him, he was a loving, loyal, protective, and beautiful member of our family. He loved our 5 cats and Malti-poo, and protected them constantly. We lost him due to a tortioned stomach. He could not survive the surgery. It has broken our hearts, and, in time, we will get another German Shepard. Monte lives on forever in our hearts. I know we will be together again.

Monti

My girl - you were loved!

My heart breaks with your loss. My heart rejoices in knowing you are free from pain.

I wish for you those things your little body failed on these last few months - running, jumping and chasing.

May you be granted lots of sunshine, car rides, cookies and ice cream. Go places you always wanted to. Find peace, freedom and always feel my love.

Until we met again, "Monti, Montiboo, queen of the wild frontier...."

I miss my girl, my Monti

Monti was a very energetic, fun loving and high energy terrier. She loved to escape if given the chance. There were many a time Monti was chased all over the neighborhood by her owners. She was the best at squirrel chasing and loved her toys.
Unfortunately, Monti was diagnosed with a rare form of nerve sheath tumor cancer. Her owner gave her the most incredible care, love and attention through her illness.
Monti will live on in our hearts forever.

Mopar, you were one of the very best kitties ever. My heart hurts so much without you here. You know, big guy, you were one of my favorites and I loved having you sit on my lap. Go peacefully, sweet kitty, and find the rest of our family and your beloved sister, Bowtie. Find Bear dog, too. I'm sure he'll be glad to see you and let you sleep with him. You tell everyone hello from Mom and I'll see you all one day.

It is said that until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains asleep. And with you, Morpheus, I know that this is true.

Morpheus, my baby Morpheus, if you only knew how much I miss you, how much I would give just to be with you one more time, just to spend one more afternoon with you at the beach, walking in the park, taking a nap...

Thank you so so much, my Morpheus, to give me the honor to walk by my side. You became part of me and you remain part of me.

With much love,

Sandrine

"In Loving Memory"
Casey "BooBoo" - August 2,1998 - September 18,2010.

Where to start... My husband and I wanted a tea cup poodle. We searched for months until we finally came upon a lady that had been a breeder for 17 years. We went out to her place and had our choice of four. I couldn't resist that tiny, sweet little brown nosed baby that looked at me while sitting on my lap, looking into my eyes and asking me to choose her. I did. And it was the best choice I have ever made.
Casey was a true tea cup. She weighed a whopping 1.5 pounds when we brought her home at 4 months old. She immediately wrapped her heart around ours. She was so lovable. She played but never, not once, chewed anything or bit anyone or even growled at anyone. She truly was the best little baby in the whole wide world.
She loved the beach, walking on the sand, peeing at every few little paces... she loved Nutter Butter patties. She asked for a treat every day and she always got not 1, but 2. She would work us for them! Get one from her daddy and then come and ask her mommy for one. She loved the marshmallow out of the Little Debbie holiday cakes, you know, the ones that has the cherry flavor to them. If she heard you unwrap one, here she came, ready for her bite.
She loved to go bye bye. It didn't matter where we were going, she went with us. If she couldn't go, we didn't. She slept by her daddy's side every night - I know he misses her dearly. She was and always will be his little girl.
I could go on and on about our baby but my heart is hurting so much right now, I have to stop. I never in my wildest dreams knew (until August 2, 1998) that a little animal could mean so much to us. She was so tiny, but larger than life. She loved people, all people. She had to have attention. She got plenty, being so small and such a sweet little thing.
We miss her more than any words can explain and we will never, ever go a day without thinking about her, remembering all of the wonderful times that we shared with her and all of the joy, happiness and the truly unconditional love she gave to us. There has never been a love like it and never will be again. We love you BooBoo. - Mommy and Daddy

Ms. Pepper #2 came to me as "Patty" from beagle rescue. I received a call to foster her because she was very shy and afraid at the shelter.She was a sweet little "black blanket beagle girl".
She looked so much like my first Ms Pepper, that passed in 1997. I decided to call her Peppy 2 or P2. I couldn't give her up , so I adopted her. I already had Daffodil, Ruffus,Spike,and Crystal, all beagles.
As time passed and Peppy became less shy, she proved to have a great sense of humor. she had a funny beagle howl and body language that just said"Play with me" She played with everyone.If there ever was a cookie or any crumbs anywhere Peppy would find it...she had a great nose. A year later I adopted Ms Magnolia and she was Peppy's good friend too.
When I came home Peppy would throw her head back and let out an Arrroooooo..she was a happy little dog. She loved to go under the deck and dig a hole and lie in it to keep cool in the summer.
Peppy was always ready for a walk and if you stopped for a second she would try to chew the leash.
One summer night she and all of the others got out of the fenced in yard by accident. Everyone except Peppy came back within a few hours. It was late at night, I stayed up all night .but she didn't come back. The next day I didn't go to work. I started out driving around the neighborhood asking if anyone saw her. Some construction workers saw her running around early that morning. Some saw her run in front of the school bus. Finally I had a picture and poster put up in the area where she was seen..I was frantic. By late afternoon she still wasn't home (13 hours missing)The weather was turning bad and severe thunderstorms were predicted. Peppy was very afraid of storms. About 3:30 in the afternoon I got a call from a little girl that saw my poster and said they had Peppy in their yard. I drove over and there she was, totally beat, limping,tired..but OK. I brought her home and we were all glad to see her...within minutes a bad storm came and I was so glad to have her home..I gave the little girl that found her $50.and it was worth it...Since that time I re-secured the gate so no one got out again.
I found out by accident that Peppy had bladder cancer. I was running a test strip for Dilly that had bladder cancer for sometime. I tested Peppy's urine and it showed positive for protein and blood. After an ultrasound, it was revealed a large tumor in her bladder(Just like Dilly had) She had surgery and then I proceeded to do all the things I was doing for Dilly to slow the cancer down. That was June 5, 2009.
She was doing great...Sadly in Dec 22,2009 Dilly was losing her battle with the cancer. I had her put to sleep. It was so sad..They all knew things changed.
Peppy did well through most of the coming months. I started noticing in late summer, early fall she kept going out and seemed like she wanted to be by herself. Sometimes she looked sad or painful.In late September one morning she got up and was vomiting 4 or more times.. It was getting harder to sneak her many pills in her food. I knew in my head it was time...but I didn't want to let her go..
The vet came on Wed afternoon and put her to sleep. I took her for a walk earlier and she was wanting to walk more..It was so hard and I am still not sure if I cut her life short by a day a week a month..I miss her and Dilly so much..Now I have 3 old babies left. Ruffus Spike and Ms Magnolia.It's hard to lose 2 in the same year. I miss them terribly.
We love Peppy; Mom , Ruffy, Willie and Nollie xoxo

Dear Muffin, Today, 12/9/10, I got your ashes back from the vet. Oh what a sad day this was, but not as sad as the day you passed away on 11/26/10. You came to me broken and injured from a dog bite, from a shelter who was going to put you to sleep because they thought it was the "best" thing for you at the time. I thought differently though. I took you in, and even though you had some issues, I truly loved you and I loved your eyes. You were my gray ball of fur that no one else wanted to loved. Even after I tried to adopt you out to another family, you came back to me because you chose me to live with, not anyone else. I love you for that Muffin. I know that was such a girlish name for you, but at the time, it was all I could think of. You turned out to be one of my favorite babies, and I am so glad that I rescued you. You are so missed by all the other kitty's, and especially by me, your mommy. Please remember that I will ALWAYS love you and I did all that I could for you. I will always remember your beautiful amber eyes and your pushed in little face. You will forever be in my heart Muffin. I love you so much....

Love,  
Mommy, Daddy, and all of your other furbabies xoxoxo

I got Mugsy as a stray kitten in Bayonne, NJ in 1995. He was a wild cat and over the next 16 years our bond and love grew. He was a one person kind of cat. He bridged many moments with me. My marrage, my daughter our new home in the country. That's right from city kitty to a gentle country kitty. Never once did I ever think he would leave us, or even that I would have to put him down. But I knew that after 16 years my friend needed me to do this. I miss him everyday. I am blessed to have him buried in our yard with a wonderful monument and flowers. I still cry when I go to see him but more and more those tears are replaced with funny memories of a fat cat that was my boy, MUGSY. I hope he knew how much he meant and how much he is missed. Good Bye Mugsy, I will see you at the bridge some day.
Love, Dad, Mom, Kate, Mav and Shiloh

My sweet little Kandy suffered greatly her last four months of life, but never failed to offer love and comfort to me, her friend, caregiver. Kandy was a sweet little Cocker Spaniel, full of life, and quick to greet with a bark and then a warm little kiss.She would quiver with pleasure over this smallest show of affection. I will miss her sorely, celebrate her life gladly, and rejoice in that she no longer is in pain.
