Year 2000 Tributes

Fagin thru Fylla's Freja

Fagin was a happy, scrappy mutt when we found him 14 years ago. He was about 10 months old, and he was a major league pain in the butt for all those years, up until just a few hours before he died today. He was in the National Enquirer 5 years ago as a winner of a Destructive Dog Contest - his claim to fame was that he opened and raided our fridge on a daily basis. He did that even yesterday, less than 24 hours before he died of lymphoma just a few hours ago. He also caused me to have a concussion when I tripped and fell into a tree and knocked myself out when he got out one morning several years ago, after scaling our 6 foot high stockade fencing like a Marine. He was larger than life, an incredible, brilliant, funny pain in the butt little guy. He failed obedience school. He weighed 70 lbs., about 10 pounds more than he should have, from stealing every piece of food or garbage he could lay his paws on. My eyes are swollen shut from crying. Even though I've got my 2 other dogs, and a zillion cats, the house is empty. Life is less without him. See ya Fagin, my chubby lamb, see ya along with the rest of our pet and human family at the Rainbow Bridge. I love you sweetie junior.

Maureen and John

Molly and I shared one heartbeat..Molly spent most of her life being a Therapy dog and working with me in the Alzheimer's Unit..She also became a companion to the elderly and the sick as we went into Home health Nursing..She was a bright light to many..but her light was the brightest in my life...

She is my Soulmate..She gave more to me than I could ever give to her...My life will never be the same without her in it...She was Gods greatest Gift and Blessing to me..I pray for the day when I can go to the bridge and put my arms around her and look into those beautiful eyes of love and that adorable smile that was always on her face...I will never stop loving you Molly..it was an honor being owned by you...You were my Hero..you were everything that I ever wanted to be..Love your Best Friend Judy...

He had these huge thumbs. We used to pretend to shake hands with him. He was SO cute. He was the kind of cat, I used to joke, that would have been so good for a child. He was so easygoing and never scratched. What a character! We don't know the whole story to what happened to him, but today we bury him. We want him to be peaceful. We want him to be with us this holiday.

Palmer

Familiar was an extremely smart and charismatic cat - even people who didn't like cats normally thought he was cool. He was my dearest friend for 13 years and sadly was diagnosed with cancer on Tuesday, Oct 3rd after not eating his dinner Sunday night - that was how little warning we had. But we had one last day together in the garden before he went to peaceful sleep. I miss him so much. Even though I will get another cat there will never be another one like Familiar.

Kate

She hogged the bed and my heart and was my best friend in the whole world.

Patricia Andrus

You were the best cat a person could have...

Mom

When we got her, she was the smallest dog I'd ever had. I wanted to give her a brave sounding name. Since she was snow white in color, I thought of "White Fang", and settled on Fang. She was the sweetest little dog I've ever known. I think about her every day.

Bob & Patricia Acord

A special loving bird who continued on even when his physical pain was too great. More than a "pocket pet" but an affectionate bird with a lot of love. You will be missed.

David Brody

Fang was a stray that we took into our home.
He had a hard life, the signs were there. For the past 3 years, we loved him and cared for him. I cried for him, but I know that he is not suffering anymore. He was a faithful, loving and loyal companion. Be free, our sweet fang, and we will meet at the rainbow bridge.

Pat & Jim

Fannie was a stray who wandered into my house and my heart, there to stay for 12 years. She was forever loving, loyal and by my side. Putting her down was the most horrible thing I have ever had to do in my life, and I am still tormented by it. She was the best dog in the world.

Diane Miller

Fanny,

I will be eternally grateful, that in your thirteenth year, you chose me to be your mom. I love you. I will always love you. You are my child, and my best friend, and my trusty companion. You are my childhood's dream, and my heart's longing for love. You will always be all those things to me.

I know that Gramps came to scoop you up to Heaven. Enjoy the sunshine, eat till your heart's content, roll around in the dirt, paw at the butterflies-- sleep with the angels. I'll forever long for you... until the day we are reunited.

Thank your for choosing me, thank you for loving me, and thank you for making my dream come true. I always called you my Sweet Angel Girl, now you really are.

Peace, my baby girl.

Angela

You are sadly missed. I know all of your pain is gone now. Be watchful over all of our loved ones, we will see you again. There will never be a better dog in the world than you. Misty misses you, too, she keeps your bed warm sometimes. She's lonely without her doggie girlfriend. Your loss has been so hard to get over, I'm just glad I got to hold you at the end and told you how much you mean to us.

Sue Steward

Good-bye Farley I love you, I miss you so much!

Amy Mueller

To my sweet baby girl, Farrah Ferret

Your pain has gone, but mine still remains. As I sit here writing on this stained paper, I can only thank God for letting me have the love that we shared for such a short time.

It's hard for me to realize that a ferret can express all the love that you did. The fortunate people who had the privilege to spend time around you had no doubt. You added a smile to everyone's hearts.

Losing you has left a great void in my heart that is felt every day. God must have needed someone special to sit with him at the head table. I wish he could have waited a little while longer, but that is the selfish part of me coming out. I can only accept his judgement.

Now that you have gone to be with your brothers and sisters, <Snyder, Keko, Fluffy, Tyler, Pie, and Feebe> who crossed the bridge before you, all I have are the wonderful memories we shared. That will have to comfort me until I take that walk across the Rainbow Bridge.

Love, Wayne O. (Dad), Muriel and Jay

The most loving cat ever. A very special friend.

Rick Houser

Fathead you will be missed very much, I hope that you entered the Rainbow bridge before you were in too much pain.
I will miss you greeting me when I come home from work at three in the morning with your tail held high in the air and jumping on my car for some loving.
You will always be my orange man.
I will see you at the Rainbow bridge,
Love Jane

To my little Faulkner: I'm sorry I was not with you to hold you when you died. We should have had more time together. You were the sweetest, funniest little boy -- you will always be with me. I will grieve forever. all my love.

Laura Williams

FAYE IS GONE

Paw so small and dainty, white
Touches gentle in the night.
Nose so pink and small and true
Touches gently, soul of you.

Purring mound in early morn
Rides atop my hip, so warm.
Pony girl as she rears up
To gather little pets and touch.

Gentle soul, white beauty you
Soared for many years, so true.
Now you soar up in the night;
Strong and bright and warmly white.

Visit me, if in my heart.
Makes me feel we'll never part.
You will be forever here;
Love and purrs and white, my dear.

Tamara Dormer

Faye.... We re so sorry that you were so sick. You wanted to make us think that you were ok up until you couldn't walk any more. I know you and Flech are together and you probably are playing with Nicky too... I think of you everyday. You were the sweetest dog in the world... we miss you. I will see you again.

Kathy

To F.E. my beautiful little girl that brought so much joy and love to me and me to her.......I loved every minute of taking care of you.
For ten years you were my best four legged furry friend.
I will miss our quiet times we had together,(minus the dogs, oh, by the way sorry about the dogs, I know they were a hassle sometimes) you would always lay on top of me face to face...and your wonderful happy purring when i would comb you. And I will miss you waking me up at 6:30 every morning yelling at me and letting me know it was time for breakfast.
I know that you are in a better place now and not in pain anymore. I am so sorry that you were ever in pain, anything so beautiful should never have to feel that way.
I am so glad you adopted me ten years ago.
I have so many feelings about you that I can't put them all down. I will talk to you when I put fresh flowers on your grave.....And when Digby and I go out to your resting place to say good-night.....Rest in peace little girl............
I Love and Miss You so much. :-(

Joni Goode

While Feather was not Jo's first rat, he was mine. She let me name him after we picked him up. See you around, little guy.

Robert Candelaria and Jo Norris

We are Pam and Scott Narveson. Our cat Felassa was born in Pam's hometown of Algona, Iowa during the month of October 1986. We never knew her exact birthdate, but because she was black, we always observed her birthday on Halloween. Pam picked out this darling little furball when we had been married about three years, during the Christmas holiday in 1986. Of all the cats at the Algona pet store, Felassa had chosen the highest perch, and had immediately gazed calmly into Pam's eyes and bonded with her. Many tens of thousands of loving looks between the two were to follow.

Felassa (pronounced "fa-lay'-sa") was named after a character in the Star Trek television series of the 1960's. Like many others our age, Star Trek was a source of great entertainment and inspiration for us growing up. For Pam, it helped her through her adolescent years when she was forced to deal with the onset of Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Our veterinarians always listed her as "black DSH" (for Domestic ShortHair). But one veterinarian once told us that all black cats have some Siamese heritage in them. It was easy to see that Felassa belonged to the regal lineage of the King of Siam, bred to guard the walls of the King at night.

Felassa grew to be a lovely, sleek, black cat with deep green eyes (many red-eyed photos of her notwithstanding). She was almost all black: only a few stray white hairs above her eyes kept her from a complete midnight look. Age added a touch of salt to the mix, and more stray white hairs appeared, although the real "salt and pepper" look was on her front paws and face.

Felassa moved to Minnesota and lived with us at our apartments in Northfield and Burnsville (two years each), and when we bought our town house in Apple Valley in 1991, she of course reigned over that realm too, even when we were adopted by another cat named Tooey in 1992.

Felassa quickly found her favorite spot in the world: in the hollow of Pam's neck, purring, blissful look on her face, joyfully kneading Pam's throat. For all her life this remained her favorite place in the world: her features would set into her "kitten face", and she would make her way up the couch or bed to be with her mom. Unfortunately for Pam, once Felassa was a ten-pound adult cat, this usually meant some jockeying for a comfortable position before the real lovin' could start. But whatever the physical discomfort for Pam, the very real love and strong connection between the two helped Pam weather many tough times.

As a young cat Felassa was a fearless jumper. She spent much of her time on the tops of kitchen cupboards, on the highest perch in closets and trying to launch herself into the tops of coat racks. Scott could easily coax her to fling herself five feet in the air while trying to capture the toy tossed at her. Always an agile cat, Scott taught her to tolerate being picked up while being tossed in a half-somersault, directly into the hollow of his left elbow. She calmly took this "flipping" in stride. Sometimes she would show her annoyance in her standard way: quick whacks of her tail against the side of the person who had annoyed her.

We enjoyed many games with her. She loved to take part in making the bed, loving to be tossed about on a sheet. She loved to play her version of hide-and-seek: we would give her a challenging look, then duck our heads or dart around a corner, and soon she would bound up to find where the missing person had gone to. She loved to set herself halfway along a hallway, waiting to intercept a ball or toy rolled past her. Her reflexes and paws were lightning quick always, and even as an older cat with weakening vision could easily bat away the toys we tossed her way. She had a peculiar hatred of sticky tape: a curl of something sticky left on the floor quickly led to savage attacks, until the wily tape monster had been subdued. She never quite understood how anything in the world was fast enough to catch her.

She was a very smart cat indeed: she knew the mood of the house, could figure out when anyone was trying to pull the wool over her eyes, and never could be conned into doing anything she didn't want to do.

Felassa was a cat of extremes: fearful of small children, defiant towards any dog, stubborn in the extreme when her wishes were defied, quick to vocalize any wants, feelings (or demands!), aloof at most times and incredibly loving at others, dignified but with occasional moments of comedy, and the calm queen of her domain.

Although she was always a feisty cat (in spite of our calling her our "old-lady cat" in later years), age and disease slowly took many of her physical gifts from her. Her final health crisis was fast and shocking to us: within three days our dignified queen had failed and could barely move. Quick visits to veterinarians revealed a terminal renal condition, and after our brief vigil, Pam held Felassa upon her chest for the last time and let a kind vet end her suffering. Ours continues for now: she was our beloved pet, gave us much love over many years, and was a constant fixture in our life together. We will miss her terribly, and cherish her memory.

Pamela and Scott Narveson December 4, 2000

Felice you will be missed. We love you.

Kelley Price

Felicia was the best darn cat in the world...to me! I miss her terribly. She was sweet, gentle and a joy to have. She was indeed my best friend. There is nothing like the unconditional love that is shared between a pet and its owner.

I thank God for allowing me to have this precious being for 16 years. I'll treasure in my heart forever.

Kristi Castro

Her name was Felicity which means "one who brings joy." She brought us immeasurable joy during the nearly 17 years we shared our lives with her. She was always dignified and elegant, yet whenever you picked her up she would go limp in your arms or place her paws around you in an embrace that expressed sheer love and contentment.

She taught me much about what is important in life. So many times when I have been upset or troubled she came to me and made everything all right. You could never ask for a more constant companion.

She always communicated with us. There was never any doubt of the love and affection she held for us or that we held for her. She also let us know just what she required of us :)

For the past seven or eight years she was in the habit of spending time with me each night. She would wait until we were in bed, make her entrance, walk across the window sill, sometimes pausing to gaze pensively out the window, continue across the end table and then slide into the crook of my arm for her final snuggle and purr before going off to her most recent favorite place to sleep. This nightly ritual never failed to bring me peace and serenity at the end of the day.

She will live in my heart forever.

William Thomas

Felix, my sweet angel, thank you for your love over the last 18 years. You were my source of strength during my hardest times. You taught me so much and gave me all my joys. In your eyes there was nothing but trust, and in your heart nothing but love. Thank you for allowing me to experience your unconditional love. I hold onto that love so tightly right now. I will never find a truer friend than you. I miss you every day, and look forward to holding you in my arms again. I will never have another love like this in my life. You will always be my little girl.
I love you forever.

Catherine Cervantes

My baby, my child, my teacher, my best friend

Marlyn

A friend found Felix at 2 weeks of age in the mud at a construction site. She rescued him and his sister and I helped her care for them until they were 6 weeks old and I could take Felix home with me. I've never had a pet show me as much love as that little guy did. A few years later I met my husband and I packed up the whole family and we moved to a different state. Felix was quite the trooper. He took to my husband and the two quickly became close. In March 2000 Felix had his first bout with FUTD. After several incidents and trying everything we could, my husband and I came to the painful decision that Felix would be much more at peace at the Rainbow Bridge. My little guy is now pain free and will not have to dread future visits to the vet. He will always be in our hearts and will never be forgotten.

Julie & Todd Auzston

Fly strong and high to the Bridge now - we hope you will wait to see us although you did not belong to us but were a free bird of the sky. We loved you anyway from a distance and we so hoped that in rescuing you, you would live well and long. And for a time, you did with your parents right in our midst, thrilling us with your aliveness. But it was not to be, we will miss you . . . your calls, your form flying over us and watching us from your tall perches. Fly free now Felix and know that we did what we could and will try to do more to save the rest of your family.

Kathleen & Susan

Felix, thank you for your loving, gentle presence--you're always in our hearts.

Linda Crew

Felix was known by every cat and human on North First St. He would always greet us when we came home, having taken his watch on the front porch. He loved to eat and was always there for every meal. He was afraid of nothing, stood up to foreign cats and large dogs. His facial markings made him appear like he always wore a scowl, but he was a happy cat. We will miss him so much.

Claudia & Vicki

A special tribute to my beloved cat Felix. I had to put him to sleep because he had heart disease. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do and I miss him so much. He was the nicest cat I ever could have had. I got him from the humane society about four months ago. It breaks my heart to have had to end his life so early. I loved him. To me he was like my little boy.

Allison

My sweet little boy....
I'm crying.... because you are no longer here with me.
I picture you, playing with Champ and Rocky In a good place !
Your body doesn't hurt anymore... and your eyes sparkle with joy and happiness... Like so many times before.
When you "fell a sleep" today I whispered in you ear, over and over again, that I loved you.... When we meet again, I will take you in my arms and tell you the same thing.
In one month we were supposed to celebrate you 13'th birthday together, Felix....
Even now, alone, I shall still celebrate it... and think of you !
My sweet little Felix..
You will forever be in my heart...

*Gå nå å lek med Champ og Rocky, Felix.... du har ikke vondt noe mer nå.... så du kan løpe fritt rundt og kose deg.
Jeg kommer aldri til å glemme deg, vennen min ... og når vi treffes igjen skal vi kose oss sammen og ta igjen for den tiden vi ikke var sammen.* Jeg gleder meg til å kunne legge armene rundt deg igjen, vennen min...

As God lives, is permanent;
Hearts are dust, hearts' loves remain;
Hearts' love will meet again." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Erin D. Christianson

Fer-Fer was our first little ferret. She was so sweet and dear. Thoughts of her bring a smile to my face and my loss of her still makes me cry. I love you sweet Fer-Fer.

Liz Fowler

To our wonderful little girl, Lady Ferguson of Roanoke. You have now passed on over the Rainbow Bridge. It was so very hard for us to let you go but we had too because you were so ill. You gave us so much joy and love and we know that you knew we loved you with all our hearts. You are so missed, Fergie, but you are now with Huxley, Samantha and Maddie. We will never forget you because you brought so much joy to all of us. We had you for 14 wonderful years.

Joanne & Joe Gravitt

A loving farewell to our best friend for 14 years. A sweet and gentle companion with a wonderful sense of humor who always had a smile on his face. Even though your last days were difficult, you were never a burden to us because we would have taken care of you forever. We are especially grateful that you chose for us to not have to make that painful decision and you went peacefully and allowed us to say goodbye. We are very sad, but we find comfort in knowing that you are with Souffle in heaven as you were on earth and that someday, we will be with you again. We will always remember you with these words -"Asked for nothing, but gave everything".

Christine & Graham Watson

You were mommy's baby girl and we were blessed to have had you in our lives even if it was for a short time. You were a loving and beautiful girl. We think about you everyday and know we will see you again in the future.

Jeanne

You were one special bunny, Fergus. You fought long and hard on your journey down the road called life. We love you little Fergus. We miss you. Rest peacefully.

John & Vicki

Fern and Amber were horribly abused as babies, which turned them against humans for life. They came to me at 10 months old and lived with me for almost two years. I was never able to hold them, but I loved them and they lived a happy life together and were cared for and safe for the rest of their lives, despite their rough start.

In the end, as so many rats do, they both got cancer. They went to the Bridge on New Year's Eve, together in the next life as they had always been together in this.

Guinevere

Ferris-

I remember the ride home in the car, when I first got you. You were so tiny and fragile. You grew to be big and strong. Everyone thought you were the most beautiful white cat. However, you never wanted anyone to pet you or hold you. You were very independent. I continued to give you unconditional love, even though everyone said you were mean and that they would have gotten rid of you a long time ago. I never gave up on you. You sure loved Dad though. He was the one you connected with, from sitting in the bathroom when he showered every morning, sitting on the sink and "helping" him shave, helping him pack his lunch (waiting for the piece of lunch meat he always gave you), to saying goodbye when he left for work and greeting him when he came home. You also always waited for dad to go to bed, and followed him in there. You loved sleeping on his and moms head, purring away. I am glad there was someone in our family you could connect with. You started getting thinner and thinner. You acted healthy, but were always throwing up. They could not find out what was wrong with you. You went on this way for over a year, and you didn't seem to be suffering. However, you seemed to start going downhill. The doctor said that animals can be in a great deal of pain, and not show it, so we knew what we had to do. We had had 11 wonderful years with you. We had to let you go to sleep. You are now in heaven with Ceaser, our beloved dog who passed away in 1992, that you were the best of friends with. I will always love you and will see you again someday.

Oh my Fifi how you filled my life and how I'll miss your lazy ways. I love you fidg and miss your silly antics even the ones that got you in trouble. My life will not be the same with out you and nothing will fill the void you've left behind. May the rainbow bridge have bathtubs with " butt water, balls, and soft squeeky toys for you to play with. You were my best friend and will always be in my heart. Goodbye Fifinuginsjhaus We love you.

Melissa & Chris Underwood

I know that you are out of pain now, but I miss you so-o-o-o-o much Fido baby.

Sandy

My heart aches for you, my friend. I shall miss you dearly, and always hold you close in my heart.
I love you and miss you.

Jamie

My beloved Figs. For the past 14 years, you have knocked on our screen doors, brought presents, and kept me warm while I slept. You were the sweetest cat to ever walk this earth. You deserved to have died of old age, but you were taken by two wandering mutts instead. I will always love you, and you will never be forgotten. Bandit, Princess, Duke, and Buddy miss you as well.

Brittney M.

16 years of pure pleasure. Miss you terribly.

Cheryl

Filou,
We have been very lucky to have you share our lives. You have been our little sunshine and you will always be in our hearts. Our love for you is without boundaries... You must be very fine where you are right now and this is the most important.
Bye little baby,
We will miss your blind attacks and hearing you purring.

Sophie and Satoshi

All I have left are a few tufts of hair to remind me of your physical presence. Your soul lives in the memories that I treasure and will always treasure.

I miss the way you threw your head against my chest to show me that you were more important than the newspaper. I miss stumbling over you in the dark as you lay on the carpet in the hall. I miss looking out the kitchen door to see you sitting on the deck waiting to come in.

I am sorry that I could not protect you better for if I had you would still be alive.

Audrey Hulme

The "plug" was a true friend and companion with a terrific sense of humor! Sleep well, old pal.

Kathy for the Knowles Family

Thank you for all the wonderful years we spent together.
You were truly the best friend I ever had.
My heart is broken but I know you are in a better place.
I will always miss you, and never forget you

Love
Dad

Flash, we had you for such a short time and we mourn your passing. Wayne misses your breakfast time kisses and Buddy misses playing hide and go seek with you behind the couch. I hope you are with others who love you as much as we do. We will all meet again on the other side of the Bridge.....

Jenna Jonteaux-McClay

You were a special little guy from the start. I know how hard you tried but the world was just too much for you. I wish I could have just loved your fears away but that was not to be. I miss your sweet face and the way you "shadowed" me. There will always be that special place in my heart for you. Right now it is just filled with pain but I know that will someday be replaced with gratitude for the joy you brought.

Sharon Stein

Hi Fletch... We know you are still with us. Your are communicating very clearly through Zoe Linn. She puts her toys in the cat chow bowl everyday just like you did. You know that I needed proof that you were still here and I believe what I see. You were the most incredible animal to live with and you taught me alot. I feel you every day and know that we will meet again . I love you Fletch..

Kathy

Dear Flexie,
I love you more then even God can explain. I know now you are safe and feel good in heaven. I love you.
Mattison

My dearest friend, I miss you so much. You were always there when I needed you. You always knew when something was wrong, like you could read my mind. You were the sweetest, most affectionate little guy. I hated to see you suffer the way you did near the end. I'm sorry it ended so unpleasantly for you. Still, you're in the angel's arms now. I love you, and you'll stay in my heart and memories forever. Rest in peace, my dear flippy.

Amie

My beloved flippy was bought for me by a special friend he was bought when I was feeling quite low. I did not realize that this little fellow could bring me so much comfort and joy and make me feel whole again. He did not sleep in his cage like any normal hamster but he slept on my dressing table in my cotton wool jar. He loved being gently brushed with a baby toothbrush and would sit on my shoulder when I watched television.
I knew too well that his time was limited with me as I know that hamsters do not live very long and I was dreading when that day came. The 15th of Feb started off very strangely for me it was if I knew that flippy was going to pass on so I took a day off work and stayed with him until he passed on in my hands I was devastated and I cried all day. A lot of people do not realize how the loss of a pet can affect you be it a horse to a small rodent it still hurts. But I must be positive and I now realize that I can still give a loving home to another hamster and that flippy taught me the meaning of life...

Justine

Rest - my Flirty, on the bed of rose petals next to Chelsea.
You were my furry soulmate - you always knew me better than anyone else.
Your life was short and hard. Two litters too close together and then - CANCER! I tried so hard to keep you healthy - just wasn't to be. I'll forever see your skinny little legs where the fur was shaved for the IV's.
Love you - miss you forever and ever Miss Flirt!

Wait for me at the bridge - I'll be looking for the purple collar with white pawprints!
Mommy

Sweet little Floh,
My little girl, so beautiful and cute. We are so very sorry you were taken from us so soon. Tango is laying on your grave, and the boy's "Joey and Lucky" are so very sad and need alot off hugs. Than there is Nikky still catching Frogs, but always close to your site. You will always be in our heart, and some day we will all meet again, wait for us! We love you so very much!
Gaby and Craig
Joey, Nikky, Lucky and Tango
and everyone else who's life you touched

Floofee, we all miss you so very much. You will be in our hearts and thoughts forever. See you at Rainbow Bridge!

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Becky and Jessica

My big bunny, now you are in bunny heaven with Molly and Lailani. I miss you so much. It was the hardest decision I ever made, but I didn't want you to suffer. I think about you every day, and I will remember you always. I love you.

Albert

My Flopsy, Cottontail's sister.
My bravest bun, such a terrible and sudden illness, she tried so hard to fight it but it was too much for her.

Mopsy, your other sister is fine and well, and sends her love to you both

Keith Webb

Dear, sweet, lovable, funny Flopsy. Your spirit lives on.

Julia Newman

Condolences to the family of Florence, friend of Jesse, Ginger and Scout Prince. Florence was a wonderful, sweet Golden Retriever who lived in Alabama. We will all miss her.

She was the best friend I have ever had. everyone should be so lucky as to have a friend like Flossie. I still hurt every day, even now, over a year later.

Harry Gahagan

Flotzum was the sweetest, cutest friendliest dog we have ever had the pleasure of loving. He was way too young to go, but he suddenly became very ill with cancer. We have no idea what our lives will be like without our family member, without his loving face to look at and his excitement at being taken for a walk or car ride. Our hearts are broken. We love you Flotz - you will never be forgotten.

You would have been a great mother.

Sarah Hall

We were only going to 'look' at birds that night. But Floyd caught my eye and I knew then, he would become the newest member of our family.
I had to wait a few days before we could bring him home. And how long that wait had seemed! I talked to him calmly on the way home. Telling him how eager we all were to have him join the Mitchell ranks, even while we were afraid of handling him. But something, who knows what, something deep down inside, let me know we would be friends. The very best of friends.
It didn't take long for me to feel comfortable with him. Every morning, he'd sit with me in our kitchen. I'd be studying the books- Floyd would be studying me. He'd grab the end of my pen while I was writing, just to let me know he was there and felt neglected.
Floyd was a regular member at the dinner table. Whatever we ate, he'd eat. And I mean ate what we ate! If his 'share' didn't come to him fast enough, he was comfortable taking a bite off your plate, off your fork.
His passing was quite sudden and totally unexpected. We are comforted knowing one of us was home with him, and that his last moments were not suffered alone.
He is incredibly missed in my home, in my heart. It is hard knowing he will never squawk with the vacuum, dance to the music, play his music box (ad nauseum!). It is heart warming to hear from family and friends that our feelings for Floyd were shared by them. He was so very gentle, so very amusing. And though none of these people are bird owners, they have become bird lovers through knowing Floyd.
Sleep in peace my green feathered friend. We all miss you so very much.

To my Hurricane Floyd Survivor--you brought such joy to my life. How I miss you chasing those butterflies.

My baby Fluff, the best cat in the world, we miss you very much, you will always be with us. Love you always my little lamb. XXX

Thank you Fluffkin for being such a blessing, my furry angel. You comforted me in my time of distress. I could not have gone through life as well as I have without your unconditional love. Thank you god/goddess for sending Fluffkin into my life. Please take care of Fluffkin till we meet again.

She was one the best friends I ever had, and I will miss her terribly

Fluffy was our family cat. He was given to my daughter when he was just a little Guy and she was only 2 years old. She is now 16 years old, so fluffy was 14 years old, people years. On Sept. 29 all most 6 am in the morning a dog that was running loose attacked our Fluffy. My daughter was awoken by the sound of dogs barking and ran outside to see what was happening and seen her cat in the dog mouth. She chased the dog of but it was too late for Fluffy. He looked up at me for the last time that morning. That look I will never forget. We miss you Fluffy... And will always love and remember you. Good bye... :* (

I miss you more than I ever thought I would, and I'm sorry that I took you for granted when you were here. you were such a special cat- everyone liked you and loved your personality. I'm sorry mom gave up on you, you never did anything wrong. I'm sorry I didn't realize you were gone until after the week, I was so busy, but that's no excuse. I can't wait until the day when I see you again and I hope you will also look forward to it.

Jenny

Fluffy was "the perfect cat". Loving, quiet, comforting, playful, all the qualities that make for a perfect cat. Fluffy, your passing was not expected so soon, and you will remain in my heart and memory forever. I'll always love you, little guy.

Bill Cappello

Fluffy came to us as a stray one Christmas Eve when I was 5 yrs old. For some reason she decided to be mine, we were a lot alike, moody sensitive emotional females! We were sort of soulmates or kindred spirits I guess, so obviously we were inseparable. She was a tough girl, taking on dogs and cats of all sizes. She had a litter of kittens, who found other homes, and it turns out she outlived her children. She seemed like the mother hen watching over our whole family. She always knew when I was sad and crying and would always come to console me. She was so loyal, she stuck with us after we moved to a new house, and even after we got new kitties and puppies that "moved in on her turf." Everyone says it's truly a miracle she lived so long. I had begun to think she was immortal. It almost seemed that she was holding on for something, some certain momentous event to take place before she moved on. I still haven't figured out what it was that happened. I will miss her strength, her very wise eyes, her cranky meow, the sight of her sleeping under the Christmas tree, her sleeping right beside me at night, and I will especially miss hearing her little bell...moving around the house like a little tracking system....we always knew her whereabouts. So Fluffy, you lived a long, brave, loving life....thank you sooo much for sharing it with us. You are forever in our hearts and minds.

Melody Pelayo

I miss you so much Fluffy, I got you at a pet store not knowing how much of a part of my life you would be. When I first saw you there, I knew that it was you I was going to pick. You were my first pet and will always be in my heart.

Hey Fluffy. Hope that you are at peace now. I know that you didn't have the perfect cat's life, but I tried for the past 3 years to help you know love. Think that Willie misses you. He seems lost when he is outside and doesn't have anyone to chase! Fluffy, please be safe and loved. I know that Maxie is looking after you now. Love You, Pat

My cat Fluffy was another special friend of mine who passed away over twenty years ago. I still remember the special relationship we had and how I grieved her loss. I wanted to recognize her spark in this tribute.

--Cathy

Fluffy,
We miss you so very much. So young and beautiful. Too young to die. I'm so sorry not all people are kind. I'm so sorry we couldn't save you from that bullet. The pain of your cruel murder will haunt me forever. Late at night I sometimes think I hear you purring your sweet music and I smile through my tears because it seems you are here with me still. I love you baby and I miss you .........

Frieda and Family

I miss you more than I ever thought I would, and I'm sorry that I took you for granted when you were here. you were such a special cat- everyone liked you and loved your personality. I'm sorry mom gave up on you, you never did anything wrong. I'm sorry I didn't realize you were gone until after the week, I was so busy, but that's no excuse. I can't wait until the day when I see you again and I hope you will also look forward to it.

Our beloved Fluffy joined his brothers, Nekochan and Suki in Kitty Heaven this morning. Like his brother, Nekochan, he suffered from kidney failure and lived to be over 17 years in age. We will miss him terribly as we have missed Nekochan and Suki. We loved them all very much. Love, Mom and Dad

To the best bunny that ever lived. See you in heaven :)

I will always love you

Fluffy passed away suddenly on August 5, 1996 in the early hours of the morning. He was adopted at the age of 6 from a family in 1994 and brought much love and touched our lives tremendously in the 2 short years he was with us. He was unique in that he was a hugger. He became great friends with Casey and Lila Mae and became even closer to Casey after Lila Mae became a bridge kitty. I love you my "Fluffers".

Kelly Clarke

Dear Fluffy, I hope you are happy over the bridge. That your beautiful as you were when I got you as a baby. I hope your beautiful amber eyes are sparkling, and that you are showing everyone how to do nice. I miss you so much my dear fluffy, I have a memorial here for you, with angels all around you.

I miss you sweet baby, till we meet again.......rest in peace my angel..............
Love,
Mom X X X X

FLX, You are now my special angel. I will store all the love I have for you in my heart, knowing you will watch over me, until we meet again, just this side of heaven at a place called rainbow bridge.

Tammy Poncik

Flying Storm Cloud - we will miss you greatly. You were only with us for such a short time. You were to be Holly's and my beginning of our breeding program, but now you are gone. The Lord took you way, way too soon. Sleep well dear Prince. Holly and I will always love you.

We miss him

Linda & Brian Morrison

Foghorn,

What a special surprise you were! You appeared out of nowhere and adopted our family.

We had three tragic deaths over a 4-month period late last year (two of our kitties and one soon to be our kitty). Our lives were so bleak and dark that you added some sunshine with your funny, friendly ways and beautiful multi-colored feathers.

You were so sweet and timid. Now you never need to be afraid again. I feel that you are in the company of my angel kitties.

I will never forget you. Thanks for stopping by.

Love,  
Mom

In remembrance of our best friend and pal. Our 6 year old Pekingese, Foo-jo Sumi died with a stroke on January 5, 2000. We will always remember you and love you very much. You brought lots of laughter and joy to our home. Glad for the years we had to enjoy you. We love you very much.

Willis & Frances Fulton
(Mama & Daddy)

This was a "lifelong" companion and a special someone who will stay with each of us until we pass on to join her.

Terry & Maryanna

I found you on a busy road fourteen years ago. You loved to romp and splash in the creek. Now you're at Rainbow Bridge with Wolfie and your other friends. Wait there for me.

Milton Finley

FooYoung was a very special dog..in fact..we never told him he was one.Michael gave me him on New Years eve in 1992..He was in many ways the child we could never have. He was loving..protective..and great joy..he was a brother in every aspect of the word to my son and daughter..he was and is very much loved and missed..When Michael passed away in May of 1999. Foo wasn't the same..He suffered a stroke..and I had to have put to sleep..it was painful after losing Michael..I told Foo that day that he would join his Daddy..I know that someday..when it is my time to go..he will be there waiting for me at the bridge..

Ford was almost the perfect dog. Unfortunately his one flaw was a serious one that left me no option but to put him to sleep. He used to bite people but never deliberately as he was always half asleep and if someone was right in his face he used to react. It was a problem I could not correct so I decided to put him to sleep.
He was a very handsome boy with unlimited athletic ability. He played all sports but he especially loved his tennis ball. He sang like a tenor, he swam like a fish, he jumped like a kangaroo and he was faster than lightening.
He now lies in my back yard but I hope his spirit is running free.
Ford had 2 sons, Louie and Teddy with his girlfriend Jackie.

Donald Mcpherson

Mommy will always love you. My sweet baby dog.

Love,
Mommy

My precious baby! I love you, forever!!!!

Virginia Raybrook

Fox, you were our special 'rat angel'. You were kind and sweet and soft and smart! We miss you more than words can ever say. You were so funny, you always made us laugh with your silly antics and knack for learning tricks, such as playing 'basketball'! Your own little ball and net, you were so cute! We loved how you liked to play with any toy or stuffed animal. We love you so much that our hearts ache and our tears won't stop. My little Fox Angel, I know you are not suffering. Please play with Mello, Harley rat, and Tammyturkey at Rainbow Bridge. We miss them too!
We love you and now it's time to say 'see you again someday at the Bridge.
You are forever in our hearts and in our minds.
Love, Mama, Nana and PeeDee

My Fox - Your life here was too short, but you made a huge impact. We will remember you always, in our memories and in our hearts. Til we meet again - in a better place. Rest in peace, Buddy

Foxie was our wedding gift to each other. She was a beautiful Pomeranian. Foxie had a permanent smile on her face even the day we put her to sleep. Foxie always gave everyone fabulous greetings. She was an angel. Foxie was very ill and was hospitalized for four days and the vet discovered tumors in her stomach lining and intestines. We took her home with little hope. She became very ill again vomiting and loss of control of her bodily functions. Foxie no longer had the strength to stand up. We gave her a piece of cheese before we drove her to end the illness. She was put to sleep. We received her biopsy one week after her death which confirmed she had cancer - Gastric Lymphosarcoma. We miss you Foxie. We love you our little Foxie. We hope you are with your big sister Brandy (our Golden Retriever who died in 1998).

Janie and William

We miss you so much... We love you... We want you to be happy wherever you are... We need you so much, Foxy, Foxidio tou theiou, tou azotou, tou anthrakos... Goodbye and au revoir... :-(

When I first met my sweet little girl, it was October 5, 1985. Someone had decided that since she had heartworms that she was not worth keeping. To that person that gave her up, they will never know the love and joy that my little sweetheart brought into my life. I have treasured every minute I had with her, some better than others, but all of them will always be in my heart. We have traveled the country together and been through so much. She always knew when to make me laugh or when her mommy needed to just snuggle. I pray that I gave her as much love in return and let her know how much she was loved. Over the years that we had together, my little one has had some medical problems, but in the last year she was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. She was doing really well, and even as of last week, she had gained back up to 13 pounds (this is just one pound less than what she weighed when she was a lot younger). On Saturday a week ago, she got very sick and I rushed her to the vet. Even now, they do not know if she had a heart attack or what. I pray that it was not something that I did. She seemed to be getting better by this last Tuesday, but I had to leave her at the vet because I had to go out of town. This was the first time ever for her to be boarded. When I went to pick her up this last Friday, she seemed a little stiff, but I thought that it may be because she had been cooped up. When we got home, she went to bed and only got up to go out or to eat a very little bit. On Saturday, she did not want to eat at all, not even her favorite chocolate cookies. This morning when she got up (more like I got her up), she did not want anything to eat or even a drink of water. I prayed all day for a change, but somewhere in my heart I knew that she was trying to tell me that she was ready to go be with God. So this afternoon (Sunday, January 16, 2000) at 4:45 p.m., I let my little one go. Through tears of sadness, I pray that she will be in a better place where she can run and play with no more pain. So my dear sweet Foxy, mommy loves you with all her heart and misses you so much!! Please remember you will always be...............loved.

Hugzzz and kisses,

Mommy

To my dearest Angel Foxy Lady...

All through your life I called you my Angel, and now you truly are. You showed me how to love in a capacity I never knew I had. You were truly my baby, my best friend. Please know that I miss you and think about you every day..practically every minute. I know one day we'll meet on that bridge and, we will spend eternity together. Until then my Angel, you will still always be with me...in my heart.. in my soul...

I love you

Kathy

My dear sweet Frankie was released from pain on 12/23/00..I will always remember your beautiful eyes, your soft, silky long fur..the love that you gave me so unconditionally. You are my best friend, honey..may you be always happy, realize that what I did was what I thought was for the best..run and play outside...and remember me with love..I love you Frankie..Daddy

He came into my life 11 yrs ago as an abused and neglected stray it took a long time to get him to trust us but when he did he gave me his all. He was a tough little dog that walked around like he owned the world. A few years ago I got into dobermans and when I got my first puppy I said that Frankie was a Doberman trapped in a Shih Tzu body, he was tough on all of my puppies and never let them get away with anything.
It is very hard for me to end this it has only been 1 year since I lost Buster and now I lost his "brother". I take comfort in knowing that they are together and that I will see them again. But for now they will live on together in my heart!

Beth Kranitz

Frankie leaves behind 6 puppies. She will be missed by her family and her brother Fonzie. She now has joined her mate Bumper for eternity. We love you and we miss you.

Melinda

I got Frankie when he was 8 wks. old.
He has moved with me to three different states, outlived a marriage, put up with 5 other cats,and a dog. Throughout all of this, he was the best pet anyone could have.
I now he lived a long life, but this is just really hard.
I did not have to put him to sleep, I was gone for an hour and came home to find him.
Thank you for this site, and I will be lighting a candle for my Frankie this Monday.

Though you were only with us for a short time, you touched our hearts deeply and will be missed for a lifetime.

Penney and Randy

My beloved Frankie, five years ago today I lost you. I still miss you so much, baby boy, and I think of you so often. I am so thankful you came into my life. Your momma is doing fine. She is a doll. I call her my angel with an attitude. She reminds me so much of you. Your daddy, Patches, came to live with us for a couple of years. I guess his owners abandoned him. It was such a blessing to have him with us for those two years. But I know you and he are now together again. He was so brave. I miss him so much too. Take good care, precious one. I'll never forget you. You and sweet Patches watch over us. Love, Mommy

Frankie was completely loved and cherished... and he returned his love unconditionally. He was an intelligent, sophisticated, regal, loving friend. The pain and loss I feel from his death cannot even begin to be put into only words; but I hope, that in time, I can remember him with happy smiles, instead of bitter tears. He shall remain in my heart, always.

-Lisa J. Alderfer

Freckle was such a sweet, loving bird, gentle, a real "Teddy bird" who loved to be scratched, loved to share meals with us, sit contentedly on our shoulders as we went about our daily activities. Freckle, we wish you well on your journey to the Rainbow Bridge, where you will be well, and happy, awaiting the arrival of your beloved family. Thank you for giving us your love and bringing us so much joy for the last 11 years.

Love, your family, Daddy, Mommy, Beth, Coconut, and Sweetpea

Freckles,
I am so thankful for the time you spent with me. I will never forget you!! There is such an empty space in my house and my heart right now, but I know that one day we will meet again on the Rainbow Bridge. There you will be smiling and holding your old tennis ball waiting to play catch once more. I love you and you will always be my "best girl"!!!

Linda Foster

Freckles was "THE PERFECT COMPANION" for my husband and I. She lived simply to be with us and to please us. We miss her very very much.

Diana McGlinchey

Oh my sweet Freckles! I love you so! You have only been gone from my arms for a matter of minutes my sweet boy! But you will never be gone from our hearts!!! Please know that we love you!! You have been such a sweet pup! Love Mom

To my beloved Freckles...my protector, my comforter, my playmate, my alarm clock, my child, my best friend...though I will miss you terribly in my life, you will forever remain in my heart. Rest in peace, sweet boy, until we meet again. Love, Mom.

In loving memory of a dear friend. Although we are sad because she is no longer with us, we celebrate her life, remembering the love and companionship she gave us.

Carolyn White

Freckles, You have no idea how much your loss has left my heart saddened. I miss you terribly- your big beautiful brown eyes and cinnamon colored ears.. that goofy way your front feet left the ground when you barked and that adorable sweet little tail that was always wagging even when you were just walking around doing nothing. I miss that wonderful "I hung the moon" greeting I got every time I came home. You were a wonderful companion and I look forward to the day when I can love on you and play ball with you again. I know you are in a better place running and playing ball and having fun doing the things you weren't able to enjoy towards the end of your life.

Love Always, Mama

To our little buddy. Our knight in shining armor that protected us in every way. You can never be replaced. We love you.

Lily & Carlos

Goodbye dear Fred. You were a wonderful cat. Always gentle and sweet. no other cat could match you for intelligence. You knew you were dying and you tried so hard to hold on for us. Finally you had to let go. We will never ever forget you or stop loving you. Please forgive us for not wanting you to leave us when you were ready.
Kammy

To my beloved friend Fred;
I do not have much I can say at this time, your departure on your new 'adventure' seems like only yesterday. Even if yesterdays go on forever, there will never be one such as you. You're love knows no bounds, and I'm sure you know mine doesn't either.
More than anything else, both for you and me, I'm so glad to know of the Rainbow Bridge. I always did know you were a miracle, my personal "gift from God" It gives me great comfort to KNOW I'll be with you again. As long as this is true, the time will pass.
C-ya someday, love forever, your servant, Ted

Ted Higgins

Fred was my very best friend for thirteen years. He helped me through all life's journeys. He saw all my tears of happiness and my tears of sadness. He had the most dignity of my living thing.

Fred taught me about life, love and finally death. I walked his last mile with dignity and pride that I've never seen before. I let him go to the Rainbow Bridge not because I didn't love him but because I loved him so much that I wanted to release him from his pain.

I miss riding him so very much. I miss stroking his neck and the hugs that he gave me. There was never a fence so high that he couldn't clear it and he loved to run. He learned to jump because he wanted to please me and he pleased me very much.

Good Bye, my friend. I see you in my dreams. I thank you and you still carry me everytime I ride.

Vicki McCarroll

Freddie died on May 21. 99.... it was a tragic death ..well he died from lymphosarcoma... The tragic part was not merely the fact that he was sick.. it was so unexpected..and our vet took advantage of our pocketbook at the expense of our dog..... Freddie was my wedding present ... brought to me ..a gift from god on 3-9-94 after we married on Valentines day.... Freddie was not juts a dog he was my child ..my first born, my bast friend, my soul mate... he was the closet thing I have ever had human or not in my life to my heart.... Fred was our baby... I have many health problems one of which was the fact of being able to get pregnant and have a baby... so Freddie was my first born.. and despite the odds being against me I had 2 children and a boy and a girl and they were miracles.... But Freddie took care of all of us... major gulp..well honestly especially me.... I have been plagued with all sorts of health probs and surgeries and well knowing that I could come home and rest in bed with Fred ..well that to me was beyond therapy..... Fred watched the house the kids who also had health troubles of their own..... Freddie was truly my soul mate ..people have often gotten offended by this statement ..but I feel that it is the truth..... I have often wondered why his death occurred... I have gone thru so much grief in the past 2 yrs of my own life... a death of a grandmother; a death of a brother to HIV; and many surgeries of my own... and most recently another 3 weeks ago but when GOD took him from me.. that to me was the ultimate.. I basically have fallen apart since then.... It has taken me 1 yr..tonight thus being the anniversary of his death.. to write this letter and this entire yr to dwell over everything that has happened.... and tonight to finally put his grave stone which I kept inside wrapped in its seal for one year.... and tonight I finally got the courage up to open it and place it near his resting place..... This was not because of any religious thing it was because I have not had the courage to do it sooner.... I cry everyday over him ..several times as a matter of fact.. and I cannot forgive myself for not doing more,..nor I never will.... You see Freddie was not acting right on 3/18/99 so we took him to our former vet ( he had not been eating and well we did not know what to do ..he was rather lame)... well that vet after a matter of 8 weeks and the wrong tests and giving us the run around insisted that he had liver and bowel troubles which to us were not the case.. he never displayed any of these symptoms... anyway as he got worse and as this vet took a sum of 6 to 7 thousand from us basically doing nothing..we took all of our tests and him to another vet who diagnosed him on the spot and he had cancer.... he died 10 days later... I can tell you every day during this time what was happening with him.. as the events have never been erased from my mind.... not by choice he was in a lot of pain..although he managed to walk out of this house with the utmost dignity he always had .... he went tot he vet with my husband.. and they put him to sleep.. the night before all this it was weird I finally said to him knowing he was not eating and was slow and acting very strange... "look if you have to go.. you can .. I wont be happy but you can" and well that night things took such a turn for the worse and he did...... I think he needed to hear me say that .. I truly believe he held on as long as he did for me.... But it does not make me feel any better..... I miss him so bad .. I say good night to him everynight.. and I cry many times a day as I cannot forgive the fact that I let him down as looking back he may have had a chance if chemo could have been started sooner .. if we had known I would have done that and in my heart I truly believe I would have known I did everything for him..... and so tonight the one year anniversary of his death he is in heaven...with many departed relatives which I ask everynight to give him huge kiss for me... I truly hope there is a place such as the rainbow bridge..... as I Need to believe deeply that he is around me..and when its my time he will be with me too..... I sometimes feel its weird, that he is around me.... I cannot explain it... his bond with me was tremendous.... as everynight I cry and think of him.... his beautiful honey almond eyes.... they sit it my mind and rest in my heart.... So in closing as I say to Freddie every night... goodnight little man ...mommy loves you wherever you are.. I blow kisses ( which I use to actually do to each of his eyes) so you can see love the whole night through.... mommy loves you little man and I miss you like crazy and hope you miss me as much as I miss you...... I miss you so bad .. I miss you like crazy... I love you wherever you are..... happy first anniversary in heaven Freddie.....love you always mommy.

Fred, I miss you. I miss your face rubs. I miss burying my face in your fur and drinking in your scent. I miss your greeting me at the door when I come home from work. I miss our wise eyes. I miss your checking for monsters before getting cozy under the covers. I mostly miss your affection. Fred, you understood you were sick and you were always patient and brave. Know that I love you. I am so grateful I had you to love for 16 years. I hope you have met my mom in the after-place. She will love you too.

Stephanie Smith

Fred- loyal family member until the end. You will always be in our hearts and minds, love knows no boundaries- not even death. God keep you close.

Cassandra and EJ

Fred, You were so young...I did not know you were even ill...I hope you never suffered. We miss you and wheel sqeaking all night! You are with Gerry and Teddy....Sal is still scared of you...Love Margaret

Fred was a great old cat. My husband gave her to me, along with her brother, when we first moved in together over twenty years ago. She was a scrawny little cat, always kind of small, and at first she had worms and no one wanted to pet her or touch her. In the early days, every afternoon I would come home and clean her off, feed her and then she would sit on my lap for hours. She was my kitty. She had a litter of kittens, all of whom, along with her litter mate - Ed - are now deceased. As we all have gotten older, life goes on. Fred didn't need much attention, just an occasional scritch behind the years. She was kind of aloof, but always there. A constant fixture in my life. Something, no matter how hectic your life would get, that was always there. The past couple of years she had gotten kind of cranky. I guess I would too if I were her age. There were times when I lost my patience with her and I feel terrible about that. I wished I never ever would have raised my voice to her. All she ever did was love me. There were countless times she slept on top of my head and I would throw her off. Or the time just last week when she tried crawling up my leg and I shooed her away because I was busy reading. A couple of weeks ago, the vet said she was in kidney failure and wouldn't last much longer. Last Wednesday night I came home and she was very ill. I spent the next day with her on the couch. I wrapped her in a blanket and told her what a great cat she had been. All the happiness she gave me and peace and unconditional love. Thursday afternoon I took her into the vet and held her while they put her to sleep. Before it happened, I cried harder than I think I have ever cried in my life. Afterwards, it was just very peaceful. I sat in the room alone with her little body wrapped in her green blanket and rocked her and said good bye. Freddie, I am so sorry that I yelled at you or grew impatient when you were so old and grouchy. I am so sorry that I didn't let you sleep on my pillow every single night and I'm so sorry for all those times I was too busy to give you an extra scritch on the ears. I would do anything right now to give you one more scritch or listen to you howl for your food bowl or feel your warm little body when I wake up in the middle of the night. I loved you. I hope to God that you understood that I love you. My heart is broken and will be for a long time.

Vicky Cohorst

I had to put down my lovely boy Fred on Wednesday last. He was 11 yrs and I miss him so very very much. He was my constant and I will never find another Fred. My Hall Guardian, my big boy, my buddy. You are with Grandpa and Suzie now. I will be coming soon..baby

love
mom

Fred, you were so very, very special, right from the beginning. I'll never forget how you learned your name as a tiny baby, even before your eyes were completely open. I would walk into the bedroom, softly call, "Fred, Fred," and this little bitty black-and-white infant doggie would leave his mom and brothers and sisters, wobble over to the front of the whelping box, put his head over the edge and wait to be picked up. Every time! Unbelievable!

You were always a special beauty, never going through the usual "puppy uglies". All who knew you loved you, and there were many. In fact, we used to joke about your fan club. Years after you retired from the dog shows that you loved so much, friends all over the US and Canada would ask, "How's Fred?" You were such a sweet, funny, outgoing character. You had it all.

Until today you never had a bad day. So sorry we couldn't do anything about the liver cancer...We didn't know until it was too late, and just yesterday you were leading the charge around the yard, your brother Tolstoy and your sister Dusty in hot pursuit.

We will always miss you, dearest friend. You left us so many great memories. You were everyone's Valentine.

Peg and Richard

Fred, you were the best: brave, loyal, totally devoted.  
Loved Leeshie, great with grand kids - very careful and gentle with them, big guy. Liked to prance and romp with Matt and loved to play ballie.  
Unfortunately your overprotectiveness and my poor attempts at training - or lack thereof - and mama's inability to handle you got you in trouble resulting in that terrible day at the vet's. I loved you buddy and always will. My heart's broken. See you on Rainbow Bridge.

Daddy

Freddie was a stray who was taken in by me but whose wonderful personality charmed the entire neighborhood His tail was always up and he never met a human he did not like That's amazing considering his obvious abuse prior to be abandoned.

Pat Kiefer

Freddie, you were only with us for 7 short weeks but you will never be forgotten. Annie and Charlie are with you now, and someday we will all be together again. Until then, we love you JoAnn

What a little trooper!!

Dianne and Howard

He was my friend, my partner, my dog. He was my life and my love. He was always faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. I owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion and unconditional love.

Michael R. Bustamante

Fred was a very special guy. He was my dad's dog. My dad died one month ago and no one else could take Fred. I fell in love with Fred and he came to live with us for his last month of life, never dreaming he only had a short time to live. Fred was such a gentle and loving soul! He reminded me so much of our 13 year old yellow lab, Ernie, who we had to put down just 6 months ago. Fred became ill 2 days ago and was found to have hemangiosarcoma just last night during exploratory abdominal surgery. Our vet suspected this, and we discussed our options. Fred never woke up from surgery, so as not to suffer for any time. He was with us for just a short time, but he captured my heart. I visited him yesterday and told him many things...especially "thanks for being with us for the short time, and would he give dad a kiss when he sees him again..." I know they are together and we did the right thing. I have his collar and clippings of his beautiful red hair...along with Ernie's. I love you Fred and miss you already, though we only had a short time together. Thanks for touching my heart in such a special way....only Ernie had done that before.

Sarah Fetheroff

Thank you Fred I love you and I will miss you!

Chris

Her little life was brief, but brought a ray of sunshine into our lives...

Sue

We adopted Fresca when she was 2 years old. She immediately fit into our family. She would greet us at the door, smiling, tail wagging, and hopping on her front feet. Her big, brown eyes were full of love and compassion. She was gentle, and kind with all the other furry members of our family, no matter if it was the Chihuahua's, the ferret or the cat. She was 12 when we lost her. We had to make that horrible decision, because she was withdrawing, forgetting why she would go out, and have "accidents", and no longer had the drive to even get up to greet us at the door.
We decided to end her life, comfortably, with dignity, as she always lived her life. Comfortable, and with dignity and pride. I know she is happy, and no longer going to have to experience the horrible aging process. I pray that she is with my father, who we lost almost 2 years ago to Alzheimer's, another horrible aging disease. Dad loved her, and will keep be happy to have her with him.

Friday was so special. He was my friend for more than half my life. He knew my secrets, shared my joys and disappointments, and always was there for me. He died in my arms a little over a week ago, and I miss him so much. He made cat lovers of almost everyone he met. Personally he was a bird lover and was repeatedly reprimanded by my stepfather, who preceded him to Heaven, for hunting dove out of season. He knows I love him. I told him often. I know he no longer hurts. That's the one thing I'm thankful for. When he was still alive I cried for him because I knew he was in pain. Now I cry for me because I'm the one hurting. I miss him terribly. He was my first child, and he will forever hold a special place in my heart. Words can't express how much he meant to me.

Renee Kidd

Fridge.
We'll miss you always. Everyone who knew you will miss your talking, and you joining us at the table for bacon and eggs Christmas mornings. I know that you aren't mad, and I know you were putting on your brave face for us in the end. You were the miracle cat, from deciding that you were sick of having diabetes and healing yourself, to all the times when I could have sworn that you spoke. You know we couldn't say it in front of the others, but you always knew it. You are and will always be our favorite. Fudge...Fridge. I've never known life without that big white cat. Thanks for growing up with me.
Love you and miss you forever.
-Amy

Frigga - To my beautiful, devote, loyal German Shepherd dog, your human companion misses you dearly since the day (7-23-00 we parted. When tomorrow came and you weren't there to greet me in the morning as usual the pain of your loss grew worse. Without my pretty girl by my side at home, at work, and at our friends my demeanor was not the same. Frigga you were the best of (man's best friend). You had it all baby girl - beauty, grace, loyalty, and your devotion to watching over me will be unrivaled. Hopefully your time at the Bridge will be filled with joy and happiness. When that time comes and we meet again, forgive my tears of happiness my pretty girl as the joy of our union will never again be interrupted. I will finally hear your thoughts of what I always knew. I love you and I missed you my friend.

We miss our special little friend who was only a gift for a very short time. Always with us in our hearts.

Wendy & Stef Torok-Mayer

It's funny, I've forgotten the names & faces of so many people who've touched my life...but I remember every detail with you Friskie, because you've touched my soul! "...have a safe journey and know our love is always with you, as we know your spirit is with us. As Elton John's song says: 'Someday we'll live like horses free reign from your old ion fences...break out the stalls and we'll live like horses...free reign." Now you are free from your suffering and pain...I know "Mr. Higgins will be at Rainbow Bridge to greet you, give him our love, Love Mommy, Sean, Precious, Katie, Sammy, Snickers, and Paddy. We love you and miss you!

You will always be my sweet bunny buns. I miss you so much. Take care of Mitsie and Sebastian for me. Stay gold Friskie...

Laurie

My love Friskie Moolie-Moo,

I hope you know how much Gorby, Lu-E, D-no and everyone whose lives you touched are missing you.

The pain without you is unbearable and I cannot wait to see you, Simba and Raisa at the bridge. Are you waiting for me too?

I am sorry you suffered and your dignity was squashed during your illness. I never thought you would go even though you were 19 years old. I wanted to spend forever with you, my first.

You paved the way for the others, and give were the epitome of love, beauty, confidence, cunning, skill, and oh, so many more attributes. You took beautiful care of Simba, Raisa and Gorby, and always gave of yourself. You played, you smiled, you sunned yourself, and had a beautiful life with us. We had so much fun, there will never be another you.

Know how much I can't wait to see you and Sim and Rai, my life is over without you.

Mommie Sidni Pacilli

To my best friend, I will always miss and love you. The house is empty without you and your cousin constantly looks for you. I constantly find myself going to your favorite catnap spots to pet you, and cry when you're not. I miss you, and I want you to know how much you added to my life. Always listening, comforting, purring, rubbing her cheeks on me. I love you. I can't wait to see you again.

Kris

Frisky was more than just a pet for us, she was our daughter, Amanda's best friend. From before she was born, we knew that she would be only Mandy's cat. We set up her crib to bring her home and Frisky made it her bed too. She would sleep with her no matter what we did to keep her out. Today we had to say good-bye to this very special friend. I have never met a cat who was kind and loving. She was the first thing my husband and I ever shared together. She has always been a part of our family and we will miss her greatly. Please help us find the peace in knowing that she will suffer no more. Our daughter loves her so much and I only hope that she will remember the love that Frisky had for her. Although we will never feel her cold kisses anymore, we will have a lifetime of memories to hold us until we meet our wonderful pet again.

Dave, Susan & Amanda Tripepi

Frisky was my best friend for the many hard years of teenage life. He would sit and "listen" as I told him my problems, he would lick my tears away. He passed on quickly, but I felt like I never got to say goodbye. I love him and miss him so much -- even today, 9 years later.

I can't wait to see you again, Frisky. You are always in my heart.

Tracy Hesse

Frisky: Since we lost you nothing is the same anymore. It just isn't any fun without you in the house. We are so sorry you aren't with us any longer, but we will never forget you. You were really the "Best Cat Ever". You were my best friend and I miss you so much.

Delorma Nowicki

To my very special Tough Guy, who won his battle with cancer but could not overcome kidney failure. See you at the Bridge someday buddy.

Diane

Hello Frisky baby,

I hope you are safe and warm on the rainbow bridge.

Mommy is so sorry that you got hit by a car. I'm so sorry that I was not there with you when it happened. When you did not come the night before when I called you, I should have know something bad had happened. Please forgive me. When I found you that next morning, I just could not believe it happened. I have a beautiful llX14 picture of you on my wall that I look at each and everyday. I hope you were able to welcome your sister ChiChi recently. Please watch over her. I'll meet you on the rainbow bridge when my time comes. Be well unit then. I love and miss you so much. Mommy.

Denise Pianforte

Frisky,
You came into my life, and gave everyone a lot of joy! I will always remember the way you would retrieve those sponge balls while we played together. The way you'd go bananas if I even called out, "Spongee, Beasie". I can still see the look in your large eyes whenever your name was called out. You were the runt of the litter, and always managed to remain fairly tiny. I had hoped so much that you were going to get better after that operation a few months ago. Anyway even though it was killing me to be present during the end, I knew it was the right thing to do. Even doctor Goodman, the vet, said that your heart held out to the very last minute. You will always be my little girl. I hope that Rusty is with you now to guide you. You are loved and dearly missed by, Chris, Maureen, Rick, Mike and everyone else's heart you touched!

I will miss you-I hope that you did not suffer too much at the end and I am so glad that I got to be there with you at home with you when you passed on. I love you.

Laura

On January 17, I said goodbye to one of my best friends. Frisky was starting to suffer from arthritis and old age and she was not able to get comfortable enough to even rest well any more. Her indomitable spirit did not deserve the weak and fragile body that was holding it captive and she had to be set free.

Although it was a very tough decision to face, I promised her when we were young together that I would be strong enough to give her this final gift. She carried me through all of the tough times in my life, and I had to repay that loyalty.

To her credit, she was probably the most intelligent dog I will ever own and when she was young I didn't have any outlet or enough knowledge as a trainer to help her realize the potential I know she had. She was quite satisfied to be my companion and confidante.

I'm sure she is running the fields on the other side with the friends who have gone before her - Kyra, Ember, Mahto, Boots, Blondie, Susie and Sam. She is probably also tormenting the hell out of Loki (the cat who probably is regretting teasing her old form which couldn't give him a proper chase).

And so I say goodbye to the dog I begged for for 13 years and who gave me an incredible 17½ years of joy (and not a few moments of frustration).

My sweet girl, your little brother Morgan misses you as do I. The house is not the same without your presence.

Justis

Frito was the most loving, affectionate and giving soul ever. He was our first cat and the best ambassador that the Cat Buddha could send to us. He lived happily with us for only about 6 years. I'm sorry that you suffered so much at the end. May you go into love and light and know that we love you always.

Mom, Dad, Lianna and Yasmin

Fritz was a great cat and friend, he helped me thru a really hard time in my life. When I was alone and sad he always had this way of making me feel better. My daughter and I are going to miss him very much. We know he is not in pain anymore and he is happy with his new life and friends.

Tammy and Kaitlyn Rohrbcher

My sweet angel boy, Fritz, how I miss you, my little one. I was never quite sure if you picked me first or I picked you first, but it was always clear we were meant to be together. We were our own little family, just you and me. We shared our special love, our special bond. It was hard for both of us, learning how to love, learning how to trust, and we found in each other a special soulmate. How I wish you were still here with me, sweetheart. I will love you and carry you in my heart always. Our souls will always be connected, my precious handsome Fritz. I love you, sweetie.

Marilyn Dunn

I will light a candle on Monday night for my beloved Fritz who meant the whole world to me, and I know will always walk along side of me. Knowing that he will be waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge is comforting. I thank you my sweet little Fritz for the 12 1/2 years of joy you brought to me. You will forever be in my heart. Until we meet to continue our journey together, rest in peace. I love you more than words can ever say. Farewell my sweet boy.

Debra Roberts

To Fritz (or Free as I called you)

You meant so much to me. My little pal. Always at my side and sleeping by my neck. I remember your big sigh when you were ready to go to sleep. Nobody told me that hawks would take a little one like you. I should have known. I'm sorry. I'll always remember you. You were there for me when no one else was. I don't believe that dogs go to a "special" heaven. You'll be there to greet me at the pearly gates. Hunter, your Yorkie brother, is still here with me and I love him dearly. He isn't you though.

All my love,

Mom

Dear Fritz,
May you will always have a warm blanket to burrow in, a window to look out of, a sunny spot to bathe in, and a toy squirrel to play with. You will also always have a place in our hearts. We will take good care of Cha-Cha, till the day she will meet you at Rainbow Bridge. We will always love you Hymer dog!

Jessie, Chrissy

Fritze, you were the best and coolest dog ever. I know you can't hear me, but I wanted you to know that we're on a farm now and getting other animals that can't take you're place in my heart, or in my life.

In loving memory of our miniature schnauzer, Fritzi Ritz III.
We loved Fritzi for 13 years and were lucky enough to have her love us, too.
Fritzi, you will always be in our hearts, little girl.

Barbara & Duane Bisel

fritzy was an exceptional cat. he was a sweet, humble, sincere, gentle, unobtrusive, and undemanding boy (unless he wanted to go into the hallway). he was a great little sportsman too: he played soccer with both paws and was an avid wrestler (greco-roman). it was a surprise, therefore, to learn that he had an enlarged heart and that his days were numbered.

fritzy, your presence and love are missed very much. hugs, chin scratches and a tail pull from mummy and daddy. a half-nelson from sammy who misses you, his playmate.

Christine Smereczynsky

Frizzy was a great dog. He had been in the family even before I was born. He was like a brother to me and almost like a son to mother. Father loved him too. GOODBYE FRIZZY!!!!

Marissa, 9 Years Old

Frizzy was wonderful. He was the best dog. Goodbye Frizzy Wizzy Englander.

Marissa

My Frosty was my very special baby. He was 14 years old, and I had to make the decision to put my very special mate to sleep, last Friday, Dec 8 2000, as his wee body had ceased to work any longer.
I am a disabled person, and Frosty was the best friend I have ever ever had. Having to let him go was the most painful decision I have ever had to make. I loved him more than anything. He was more precious than gold to me. I will never ever forget him. I love you Frosty Boy.

Shelly

Frosty was my gallant little kitty whose life was cut short by VAS.

Tami

We have known and miss terribly the unconditional love of our little buddy Frosty. May he rest in peace.

Fred Millington & Joyce Skinner

TO FROSTY 10/22/87 - 8/31/00:
How I miss your intelligent, sweet, beautiful little Westie face my dear Frosty. I'm sorry that I had to let you go, but you were suffering so. I loved you too much to keep you here any longer. You were my shadow, sticking to me like glue. I miss how you used to climb ladders just to jump into the pool because that's where I was; how you would follow me into the shower (of course you started sitting right outside the shower doors after getting wet a few times). We all miss your crazy antics, especially how you would attack the sprinklers when the grass was being watered and how you would tiptoe out of a room when you thought you did something wrong. There is no one to patrol our property the way you used to. Have fun playing with Mickey again. You are forever in my heart. Love, Mommy

To Frosty:

Dear Buddy, we will all miss you so very much. We all loved your smiling face and your wagging tail and the way you liked to chase the tennis ball and go for a ride. You brought us all so much joy and laughter, you can not and never will be replaced. May you and your soul be happy in the everafter life you now enjoy. Loving and missing you, Mom, Dad, Debbie, Grandma, Grandpa, and the whole clan.

Oh Frosty,

I guess your brother Timmy was lonely at the Bridge. He only crossed over a couple of weeks ago but I guess needed to have his "Sissy" with him there.

I don't understand why you were in the neighbor's yard and why you ended by being killed by their dogs. I hope and pray that you didn't suffer long.

I would have protected you if I could have...if I had only known. One minute you were playing by the barn and then you were gone. Shadow has been looking for you. You two were so close...it was so clear that you loved your big brother.

I hope you're happy at the Bridge with Timmy. You've left a big hole here on earth and in our hearts. I miss you and Daddy misses you. I will never see your sweet face and those lovely green eyes again. I'm so glad I told you the other day what a good girl you were and how pretty you were. I wish I had told you I loved you.......

*tears*

Momma

Frosty was my cat since I was 4 years old. She was a farm yard cat that we were able to grab amongst all the others because she ran to the food bowl. She spent a full life catching mice in the backyard and forest, had a comfy bed by the wood stove, and a bay window for her to sit in. She was affectionate and shed like crazy but loved her owners. Never tore up the furniture and always greeted you when you came home. She was diagnosed with kidney failure in April of 1999 and had been fighting it for a year. In the past week (of April 2000) she has lost her strength, her coordination and most of her ability to walk. We believe she had a stroke while we were out. We had to put her down on the morning of April 19, 2000 to end her suffering. Frosty, where ever you are in heaven know that I have always loved you and miss you terribly. You were my best friend.

Cathy

Frosty and Puddles,
You both were such joys in our lives. It has been a little over two weeks since you left us and we sure miss you so. Things are so quiet around here. Puddles you came to us at 6 wks old on Easter and boy were you feisty. But as time went on you turned into such a TRUE friend, you loved us so unconditionally and you watched out for our children. I can remember when Jaret was born and you looked over into his bassinet and looked at me like you were saying my precious little boy. I can still see your pretty eyes look up at me as I rub your head and pull back your black hair that seemed to always have such character. I love you and miss you so much. And Frosty, you have been only in our lives since last Christmas but what a JOY you have been. You are probably the best natured loving animal I have ever met. We couldn't be more blessed to have had you in our lives. You loved to give sugars as well as receive them. Sometimes you were so jealous when Puddles came around but at the same time you loved her so. You died trying to help you sweet friend. You are so loyal. I think of you two and know that you are still together. That does make me happy. I do want you Both to know WE LOVE YOU with all of our hearts. There is not a day go by that we don't think of you. We miss you and pray we see you again. Take care of each other.
With Love,
Mommy, Daddy, Jaden, and Jaret

Frudo was a very special dog. I never thought of him as a dog. He was born in August 1981 and was of the third generation of a wild dog, probably a cross between Terrier and Hound, that had roamed our neck of the woods in Pennsylvania. Frudo's mother was Sunshine Dog, and Sunshine Dog's mother was Weetie Pie. Weetie pie was found by me in a manger in the back of a cow shed on the top of the hill above our farm. I never even got a glimpse of Weetie Pie's mother she was so wild. Frudo came in my life when I wanted a special dog for my children to grow up with. He was a little white, black and brown ball of fur and was full of love. Bruce and Billy, my sons loved Frudo as much as Frudo loved them. One day my son Billy went too close to the highway and we could hear Frudo struggling and trying to bark. When we went to investigate why Frudo was making such an awful sound we discovered that he had Billy by the seat of his diapers and was pulling him back to the house, with Billy still struggling to get to the highway. This is only one of many remarkable things Frudo did for our family. When I go on long walks today Frudo still catches up and walks along beside me. I know he will be waiting at The Bridge for me. I miss him so much since he passed on in June of 1992.

Wally Shank

Frye was the first dog I ever received as a surprise gift back in 1992. I always enjoyed playing with her and she was the first animal I loved. I never understood how people could get so attached to their animals until the day she had to be put to sleep. Her bones were weak and she was suffering every day until she passed on. That's when I realized that I will never see her again....well at least not for some years. But looking back, I never realized how important this dog was. I began to remember that oddest of memories about her. I remember even talking to her even though she probably didn't understand. I remember letting her sleep at the foot of my bed and remember even buying her a Christmas toy. Things aren't going to be same without her. I actually find myself crying so hard...at times I don't know why I cry so hard....I guess it's natural. Sometimes I feel silly cause people say it's just a dog....I guess they don't understand..

Gian-Carlo

To my beautiful Fudge , my best friend , my confidante , I miss you more than anyone knows. 16 years wasn't long enough. But , I know you are in heaven, and can see again , but my heart still aches for you. It has only been two weeks since you have died, and I don't know how I will ever get over losing you. To my baby before I had a baby , to that wonderful garbage picker , to that wonderful cat who used to chase olives down the hall , and kiss my face to wake me up.
I love you Mom and Brianna

He was our special little boy, who chose us for his family. He came to our house one beautiful spring day and asked for a spot to stay. We told him he could stay until we found his Mom but it was discovered that he wanted to have a Mommy which I was glad to be. He was with us ten years and we miss his sweet presence in our home very much. We know he is in a much less painless place now. We know that everyone at the Rainbow Bridge loves a little dog who begs. Sweet Dreams Fufie.xoxoxo We love and miss you.

FuFu was our outside cat. She had the kindest spirit of any- one or any animal I have ever known. She would follow us around the yard and just love being around us. And, my goodness she was so generous. She was always bringing us birds and mice she caught to offer it up to us as if we were her gods. FuFu began to have trouble breathing and her nose appeared to be swollen. My husband took her to the vet and he called me with the news. FuFu had squamis cell carcinoma. She had to be put to sleep-no pain was going to be experience by someone so wonderful. Now, every once in a while when I get out of my car or come out the front door, I hear her familiar meow that lovingly greeted me. I love you FuFu-I will meet you at the rainbow bridge some day.

Kate Merchant

Furby was the smartest cheese beggar he could discern the sound of a cheese wrapper from any other food item, and recognized cheese graters as the source of good Stuff. He was also the best sleeping aid, you could stuff him under the covers and he'd stay there warming you up all night, never scratching I'll miss you furbaloid but I hope I made the right decision to send you on to the greatest cheese/mouse/catnip omelet in the world. I know there was no suffering this way. Bless you and I'll meet you again in

Juno Redleaf

To our special friend Furball:
Well the camera got loaded, and a whole film is dedicated to pictures of you. This is our last few hours together, and at 3:00 pm we will take the final walk together to the vet's. This is the most painful and heartbreaking decision I have ever had to make in my life. I know I am doing the right thing, but it certainly doesn't make it any easier. I have agonized over my decision, and even changed my mind a few times, but in the end I know I am right. You will be so much better off, and I know that when you arrive to your final destination, you will be a cat that can finally see again, and you will have no need for a litter box, so you can pee until your heart's content. While you are up there, please find Declan and give him a hug from all of us here, but don't swipe at his nose like you tended to do sometimes to your pals down here. We will all miss you terribly, but I know in my heart that you will finally be happy, and free of your pain. Climb all those trees there Furball, see all the sights that you have been missing, and we will think of you often. Be well my friend. love Mom Sandi, Dad Ken, Jamie, Fiona, Penny, Bernie, Squirt, Fraggle, and Beaner.

You were so special to us and we will never forget you.

Brennan & Family

Her name was Fuzz. She was born on August 1st of 1986. She passed on June 2000. She was a white calico. She was part Siamese. She was the most beautiful cat I have ever seen. She had beautiful eyes and great purr. She lived with Donna Mozingo in Wimberley, Texas. She was very loved and is missed terribly.

Fuzzy you were my soulmate. I miss you so much. I hope you and Bobby are together now.
Love,
Mommy

Fuzzy, my greatest companion and trooper, who died of cancer. I'll never forget you my dear, sweet friend!

Ariane Vaneeden

Our little kitty Angel, we will love you forever with our whole heart and soul. You left us to soon but we will remember and look for you every day. You were our life and we will try and go on without you.

We know that you love us and that makes it easier. Peaceful and loving rest my dear friend.

David & Jennifer Wanner

To My loving Fuzzywusums, I miss you most when I drive up to the house and you are not waiting on the porch rail for me. I miss you each morning as I drink my coffee and you are not curled up in my lap for your morning dose of affection. You will always be missed.

Carol McKinney

Dear Sweet Iddofuzzicat,
You were a very special sweet girl who gave your gentle love completely to me and your kitty-pal Camille, the only two living creatures you loved and trusted and allowed unconditional access to your life and world. I will miss your soft kitty kisses and your courage and incredibly strong will to survive. You touched and broke many hearts all over the world with your struggles and triumphs and will be missed so very much until we meet again! You had a rough start to your life out on the streets and a rough landing at the end, but in between you were a wonderful little friend who will be cherished forever.
Mom Laurie and Camille Kitty

To my loved dog - thanks for all the time we have spent together.
We have had 12½ years with family life - but most of all all the time as hunting dog.
You was the best team dog as I ever had - every time the things was just OK.
Thanks for all.
From you leader and all the other dogs we have.
I will miss you when the hunting season starts September the 1.st - you always found the birds.

Bente Bang Gormsen
