Maggie (Magestic Bearded Lady),
10/07/06 - 10/05/16
Sweet little Maggie. Free now from your brave battle with cancer.
You were more of a companion than anyone could ever ask for.
Always a loving dog, spinning your way into our hearts. We miss
you dearly, as does your your sister Minna who may never truly
understand your absence. May your forever after be filled with
green fields to run in, warm bright sun rays to lay in, and a
never-ending supply of cookies and cheese slices to feast upon.
Thank you for being the very best pet and companion you could have
been for us. We await the day when we will all walk together
again.
Always in our hearts,
Daddy & Nanny

Maggie Mae, 2/11/05 - 12/26/12
Happy B-day to my Maggie Mae that I still miss so deeply.
You have been gone five years now & it still seems like
yesterday. I have been thinking a lot about you lately for
different reasons. You would have been 11 years old today &
I wish I still had you with me. I wish I could have seen what
you looked like with your white muzzle in your golden years. I
can still feel your presence around me and I dream about you
sometimes. I miss stroking your golden fur & grabbing you by
the face & giving you kisses. I miss our hugs & chasing
you with my shoe in your mouth. For as long as I live you will
live in my heart and I will never stop missing or loving you.
Thank you for being a part of my life and for all of the
wonderful memories that I can look back on now and smile about.
You made my life so much happier and taught me so much
about life & about myself. I miss you baby girl so very
much!
Maisie, 21-1-2016
We adopted Maisie at 1yr 6months we loved her from day one always
happy until she was diagnosed with cushings syndrome she was
able to cope with this with strict medication she gave us so much
love and happiness I never had love from family but she taught me
how to love I'll never forget her sadly she had a tumour at the
back of her brain she also lost the use in her legs so we believe
to put her gently to sleep was the most caring thing to do we love
you Maisie until we meet again on rainbow bridge sleep gently
sleep from mum and dad
Mango, Adopted 9/1/09 - 6/29/16
When I adopted Mango from the MSPCA on 9/1/09, she had her head
hanging down and appeared to be depressed, quiet and sad. I
brought my beloved Gigi come with me. Mango was a lutino (white
with yellow face and orange cheeks) Gigi was a pure white
cockatiel adopted from another animal shelter two months
prior. I had been without birds for 22 months after losing
my ten flock members over the years.
The city of Boston was gridlocked from the students moving in and
out but the two handled the car ride so well. I couldn't
wait until the flight feathers came back so they can fly around
the room. Mango did not appear to fly well at all. I
had to teach her to fly by giving her a small distance to the cage
and releasing her to fly to the cage. I remember my parent
cockatiels doing this teaching their young to fly. Over the
years Mango would fly into the wall and had a difficult time
flying. She was noted with an eye condition and got care
from an avian vet. She may have had depth perception. When I
brought her to another vet for a second opinion, she didn't handle
her well in the towel, causing her hyperventilation and when I
brought her home, she couldn't do all the things she could do
before the exam; i.e., walk in and out of the cage, perch herself
without falling, taking falls and flip, flopping on the floor,
maybe seizures. It was a nightmare after all the care I gave
her just four months prior when she hurt her neck/head. With
my 24/7 care, she made a full recovery. I lost trust for vets now
and all of this was preventable. I wish I had not gone there
that day as my intuition was saying "don't go". The staff
were nasty to me and it was all negative. You were my little
child and you would respond to me during the night when I asked if
she was okay. We were very connected with love. I
invested so much time with love in giving her vigilant
care. I will always love you Mango and hope you are
with your lovely Gigi and Koko (my toy poodle) now. I miss
you so much. It's not the same without you. You were
my link to Koko and Gigi. LOVE YOU MANGO, always xxx
Marley, 05/15/2009 - 04/30/2016
Marley was a cancer fighter, she was a sweat heart and a beloved
dog. She was unique to us. We miss her so much. Rest in piece my
baby doll. We will love you forever.
Mia, April 1, 1997 - June 16, 2016
You walked up to me and picked me as your owner on that lucky day
back in 1997 in the Hamptons. You were just a baby, 6 months old.
I never imagined I would have you til the age of 19.
We had many exciting adventures together from finding you again
after you ran away in Oyster Bay, to living in New York City
together for 10 years, moving to London and living there for 8
years, and finally returning back to New York City.
You went and saw more places than most people do in a lifetime.
You were a princess and were always treated like one, especially
when you traveled across the Atlantic Ocean twice on the luxurious
Queen Mary 2.
My loyal companion and best friend. You were always there for me
when I was lonely, unwell, and sad.
We grew up together and formed a bond way beyond the normal
pet/owner connection, that will always be special to me.
My sweet baby Mia, there will never be another cat to leave such a
huge mark on my heart as you did.
I will cherish the many years we had together and love you
forever.
Rest now my little cat.

special birthdate.
Mikasa your kennel name for the fine fragile crystal Davina
Scots Celtic meaning Beloved Dharma for the dharma wheel of
death and rebirth Your special birthday November 11th.
remembrance day. I know it is for fallen solders but for me
it will also be in remembrance of you.
I know you were confused this last year of your life about all
the moving around and being uprooted from your home. I
am sorry for that, I know that the stress of it all probably
contributed to you developing a tumor. I am
sorry I did not realize you were in pain sooner.
Davina, I love you.
I know when you first came to us I was comparing you to
Krystal, that was wrong of me. You soon won your own special
place in my heart. I will always love you. I will cherish
the dining room chair, tat you chewed out a special chin rest for
yourself.
With love

Mira ... I Believe in Miracles October

There would never be a good time to say Goodbye...you are my
Forever Love.
Someday when God whisper's my name, I will meet you at the
Rainbow Bridge and we will cross together.
Missy, 05/28/2005 - 04/06/2016
Goodbye Missy. 04/07/2016
How it hurts to say goodbye
A hole is in my heart
Part of my soul has left this earth
Part of my being is missing
You peak at me around the corner
You are my first morning greeting
No more chase around pool table
No tail wagging me home
How much joy will I miss
Eleven years my partner
The house is so empty
My crying so full
Never will I forget you
Always I'll feel your spirit
"When darkness seems to win
I remember this is not my home. "
Well said Laura Story.
Will Rogers said "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die
I want to go where they went".
I plan on seeing you again Missy.
Missy Dri, July 2, 2007 - January 3,
2016
You left us so suddenly and unexpectedly. The hardest part is that
we don't know what caused your heart wrenching demise on that
fateful Sunday on the third of January of 2016, just at the start
of a New Year. You will be Forever in our Hearts and Thoughts
Sweet Loving Missy. You gave us over 7 years of continuous Love
and Affection. It is so incredibly difficult no longer
having you near, cuddling by our sides, giving us head butts and
showering us with your love for us. It will take time to properly
grieve you, and you will be so missed and never ever replaced!!
Rest in Peace my Beautiful Girl. My Angel Cat as I called you, for
you truly are an angel amongst cats. Too Amazing of a pet for
words to express. Love You, Love You so Very Much Always!! Thank
You for All the Joy that you brought us, for All the Precious and
Cherished memories, for being such a sweet angelic and gentle cat,
for being my best furry friend ever. May your Spirit live on
somehow throughout the rest of our lives!!!!!
Mitzy, May - 9 May 2016
My beautiful, beautiful little girl. You were taken from me too
soon. You had only just started on your life's journey. It had
been a rough start too!! There are no words to describe what joy
you have given to me. You had the most amazing personality and so
much love to give. You filled the room with your presence, there
is such emptiness without you. I look for you every time I enter a
room as you were always there talking. You would let me love and
cuddle you for hours on end without getting tired. Your love was
never ending. You were so loyal and I miss you so much. My heart
has been broken and I am devastated that some selfish person has
taken you from me with a thoughtless act. I still wake up in the
middle of the night thinking I have heard you calling me...and my
heart breaks all over again. My sweet little baby girl who never
hurt anyone or anything, who took such joy in the little things. I
will miss you and remember you forever, a little piece of my heart
will always be missing. Thank you for the times we had with you. I
pray that you did not suffer and that you went quickly, I pray
that the Lord is holding you in his arms and giving you all the
love you will ever need. I pray that your days are filled with
love and food and warmth, I pray that I will one day get to see
you again and hold you in my arms. Rest well my sweet little girl.
Molly, 03-19-2006 - 06-18-2016
I've had to have pets put down before, but I've never had
one affected me like this. Molly was a beautiful chocolate
lab. We got her at a city wide garage
sale. She was one of fourteen baby chocolates.
She quickly earned the title of "Daddy's Girl, and that was
a title she took very seriously.
She was a typical puppy. In to everything! She
tore up everything she touched. I told my husband that
we should have bought her an anvil for a toy. Maybe
that would be one she couldn't destroy. She was so smart!
She was such a loving, sweet girl. She was the star
pupil in her obedience class.
As years passed, she became more aware of the nightmare that
was ahead of us.
She watched as her dad, my husband, became
weaker. She was always by his side.
On the bleak day that he passed away, Molly was right there
with us. Oh, did she grieve.
She wailed one night when she found his shoe. When I turned
to see what was going on, she was resting her head on his
shoe. I completely lost it. I knew that night that she
loved and missed him as much as I did, and still do.
She became my rock. We understood how much each other
hurt. It didn't take long before she became "Momma's
Girl".
I don't know what I'll do without her. I have a little
pug, Beau, and he's grieving severely. They were
best friends. I'm worried about him, as he's never been
without his furry friends.
Before she got the dreaded injection, I held her sweet face
in my hands, and told her how much I loved her, and
always will. Then, I leaned over and kissed her and
told her it was time to go find her daddy and grandma.
Then, she closed her eyes.
What made this even harder is I knew she was staying here just for
me. A few months ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4
cancer, and she could tell something was wrong.
I have her ashes in an urn that says, "Momma's Girl".
She will be buried with me when the time comes, and she'll
take me to find Daddy and Grandma. What a celebration it
will be!
Molly, 02/12/2016
I will always love you.
Molly Sue, March 1996 - March 25, 2016
I Loved You Best by Jim Willis
So this is where we part, My Friend,
And you'll run on, around the bend.
Gone from sight, but not from mind.
New pleasures there, you'll surely find.
I will go on, I'll find the strength,
Life measures quality, not its length.
One long embrace before you leave,
Share one last look, before I grieve.
There are others, that much is true.
But they be they, and they aren't you.
And, I, fair, impartial, or so I thought.
Will remember well all you've taught.
Your place I'll hold, you will be missed.
The fur I stroked, the nose I kissed.
And as you journey to your final rest,
Take with you this.... I LOVED YOU BEST.
Daddy will always love you Baby Girl. Thank you....
RIP and sweet dreams. Go play with Nicky.... Wait for
me.
Murphie, August 16, 2005 - October 3,
2016
The heavens received a beautiful star tonight when my beautiful
black Murphie cat passed over to the Rainbow Bridge. She was a
stunning, glossy black beauty with just a tiny patch of white on
her left shoulder that made her look like she had walked too close
to a freshly painted wall. Murphie was a feral kitten who eluded
capture for 3 months until I was able to lure her into a dog crate
with food and pulled the door shut and brought her into my life.
She had many health challenges throughout the years and was so
afraid of life, but she loved me and I her, and despite her fears,
her purr was always ready and echoed through the house. She adored
our dogs and grew up with 4 of them, talking to and rubbing up
against them whenever they came near her. Despite her health
challenges she loved life--lying in the sun, sitting in the breeze
of an open window, munching on fresh catnip leaves and crunchy cat
treats, playing with toy mice, and playing with rubber balls and
it would always make me smile hearing them roll across the
hardwood floors into the early morning hours. Murphie loved her
head to be cleaned by her feline sister and brother and would purr
so incredibly loud and push her little head towards their tongue
for more loving. Her best friend was our cat Tigger and I take
comfort in knowing they are now reunited, as she lost Tigger just
under a year ago.
Murphie is also reunited with Willow and Windser who she adored
and I'm sure the 3 of them greeted her arrival tonight. She is now
free of needles, and pills, and medicines, and is young and whole
again and will always be remembered and loved. Run free my little
black beauty.

my little mini pin Boya, 2004 -
October 31 2016
It has been a week that you passed on and my heart is broken, went
grocery shopping and cried at the food that your loved, being a
diabetic I used to give you a lot of vegetables with eggs and
chicken, how you loved broccoli , spinach, I only let you have a
biscuit at the drive in bank, you were my little Houdini, your
head was so small compared with you body that you were getting out
of everything and would run away, I am sorry that you had to have
your exercise on the porch, could not bear to lose you, you were
my best friend I was never depressed around you and we used to
spend most of the days together, I hope you can run and run where
you are and you are with Alan and you get to know all my past
doggies, I hope I can cook you some more dindin someday and see
again your happiness when I gave you a snack, my little Baba, you
will always be in my heart, I love to remember all the kisses I
gave you, run, run, my love to your heart content, your mom who
will always love you.
