Year 2000 Tributes

Nacho thru Nyssa

Nacho, the orange cat, with the funny ears. My heart is breaking because he is gone now. After a long illness, he left us yesterday. I have heard that that cats chose you. You might think you are making the choice but it really is them. He was just a kitten, when I first saw him in the sick and injured ward at the SPCA in San Francisco. I thought this little guy probably isn't going to get adopted out of here because he had a couple of obvious flaws -- two chewed and permanently scarred ears. He came to the front of the cage and in a loud voice let me know he wanted out of there. I looked back at him and felt so sorry for him because I thought he hasn't got a chance to be adopted because people want perfect kittens and this kitten looks far from perfect. And it was because of those jagged ears, that I took him home. That, and because I liked the way he was ""talking"" right at me when he came to the front of the cage. He remained a ""talker"" his whole life. I always told him that he was a beautiful cat, despite his funny ears. We never told him about his imperfect ears, we never allowed anyone else to tell him, and we never let him look in the mirror lest he see find out that he did not have ears like other cats. But Nacho's real beauty came from within. He was a joy and a delight for 15 years To have had him that long is such a gift that I have only now come to appreciate. Nacho was a pretty ordinary orange cat in a lot of ways but such an extraordinary companion at all times. He always had a noble demeanor about himself, even when he was sick this last month. I hope that he is at peace now and knows how much we miss him. I like to believe that his buddy Andy Cat, who passed on five years ago was there to meet him when he left us. I hope that they both will be looking for me at the Rainbow Bridge when that time comes. In the meantime, I will never forget him and he will take a place next to Andy in my heart and I will remember them both each day. Love to you guys and thanks for being part of my life. I miss you both so much.

Nacho Bagacho!!
I can't express how much we still miss you! Everyday we talk about you as if you're still with us! Your memories are so strong it is like you never left.
You have brought us so much joy!
Until we can sing again....

We love you!
Momma and Daddy

My precious Nacona .You came to me when I needed you most.
We had been together all of your life. When I was sick you were there to comfort me. And when you were sick you came to me for comfort. You were a great baby sitter, and a very good listener. I hope you are happy at the Rainbow bridge.
No, more breathing problems, and I know you have taken all the little ones to your care. I miss you so much my friend and Rascal misses you too. But he said good bye to you. And he was at the funeral. Wait for me my precious Nacona. I will meet you at the Bridge.
And we will cross it together.

Joan Wood

Almost 13 years ago, our little "couch cover" entered our lives and taught us the meaning of unconditional love. Blowing bubbles in her water dish, catching flies in mid-air, "mooing" almost apologetically when she wanted something ("mooing louder when we dare ignore her).
She was always happy to see us, reminded us (with a rake of her sharp nails) when it was time to stop working and enjoy our lives and amused us with her antics.
She was the world to us, and now that world has ended.
I know she is in a better place, catching flies in mid-air, blowing bubbles and when we cross the bridge, we'll hear her welcoming "moo" and be with her once again forever. We love you.

Nakima was a pure bred Akita, she was a very loving, affectionate and truthworthy dog, while she was kind and gentle she was also very protective. We miss her with a great deal, you will never find a better breed of dog than we found in her. We love you and miss you very much Nakima

Mommy & Daddy will miss u Kita.....the house is empty and lonely now....we will look for you in our dreams for an occasional Hug & Chest rub.... Until we meet again...we love you & Miss you, Mommy & Daddy

Nala,
You were my everything. I miss you more than words can say. My baby girl you are gone now, but my heart holds you so tight. I helped you fight for your life, You just couldn't fight back. Your time wasn't up yet. I love you Nala. You were my world, my happiness, my best friend I would do anything to have you back in my life. I will never be the same without you...

Lucy Simonson

Nala was my special whistling buddy who greeted me every time I was near. I still hear her whistle every now and then. I miss her. She unfortunately had to be put to sleep way before her time. I love you Nala! Rest In Peace my little Manana!

Amanda Cocco

Nana was really glad and gentle girl, I love her so much and I miss her so much... She came to me when she was 7 weeks old and she was getting sick almost immediately; we try everything we could but after she had her first heat everything was getting even worse. It seems that mother nature was decided that Nana never ever wouldn't grow a big girl. When vets couldn't help her anymore I have to make the hardest decision of my life and let my little girl go. That year and half was very difficult time for both of us because of sickness but despite of that we learn to love each other and we became a soul mates and we had many wonderful times together. I'm so sorry Nana that I couldn't help you. This house is so empty without you. Say hey to Inka when you meet him.

Anu Ojala

China's time with me was so short. However, in the short time God blessed my family and I with her presence she made a lasting effect on my heart and my soul! I miss the little things that you use to do that drove me crazy, like chewing up the tissues, jumping up and biting my hand and most of all just cuddling with you all night long. I know that you are in a better place and I hope you know that I love and miss you more than words can express. You will be forever in my heart and always on my mind until the day comes when we will never have to say good-bye again. I love you my little China doll! XOXOXOX
Thank You,
Nancy

Nanu was 18 years old when he passed over the rainbow. He was my shadow and my best friend. I think of him everyday with a smile. It has been 3 1/2 years and it still brings tears to my eyes when I talk about him. I miss him and will never forget my "Shadow" ...

Louie Olsen

Sweet Nook-Nook, 12 Years just wasn't enough.
You have touched so many, both human and furfriends with a heart ever bigger than your own size.
You are loved and missed so much!!
Rest now, our big boy.

Nancy Purks

Our dear Nanuk, we miss you so much. You were only with us for 2 1/2 years, but that was 2 1/2 years of pure joy. You brought so much happiness and joy to our home. We will meet again on rainbow bridge. Now Kayleigh has a playmate. We love you dog face.

When I first met Napoleon he was sitting on his Human's shoulder and would ride in the car like that. In greatness he passed too soon

A Message To Napoleon and Sadie Jean

This Morning A single Morning Glory unfolded its beautiful blue peddles, and faced the morning sun, this July 9 th, 2000.... I thought of Sadie Jean immediately...then you, my sweet Napoleon, for it has been two long years today, since you went to Rainbow Bridge. Is this single flower from you ;(there are no other blooms, nor beginnings of a bloom, just this one ), telling me that our precious Sadie Jean is happy and playing by your side? We sent her to Rainbow Bridge, June 19, 2000.
We loved her too much to make her stay with us any longer, my wonderful little Nat...is she happy?, is she well?...I do believe the single flower was sent from you...telling me that she has finally flowered up there, and has accepted her new world.
I miss you so very much, my sweet, sweet, Napoleon. I miss Sadie Jean even more. Not that I love you less, but that it was just "yesterday" it seems, that the rain was falling softly around your place, and just a "second" ago when we placed Sadie by your side, and it was raining softly then too. And, as when we laid you to rest, a loud clap of thunder opened up the Heavens to allow your entry to Rainbow Bridge ...so did it for Sadie. Dad and I looked at each other and smiled...the Heavens have you both now. I miss you both so very much. So very much. Please tell Sadie that I love her, and I miss her.
You would be so proud to see Sadie's resting right by your side. She is facing you and laid in the matching towels and lace, I had for you. Sadie's flowers are pink, and I know you love teaching Sadie how to come back and look at the flowers. You must tell her it is Ok to bark up there. She never barked a bark from the day you left her. I know she is barking with joy, because you are together again, forever now.
Take care of each other my sweets. I love and miss you both so very much. Napoleon & Sadie, together forever,
Until we meet again,
Your Mom & Sadiesmom

Loyal and faithful friend, you will be sorely missed.

Bianca Brooks

Natasha was a sweet and loving cat. I had the pleasure of sharing my life with her for 17 years. She never bit anyone. The only times she ever scratched me was when I was holding her and she wanted down *NOW*. Her favorite food in the whole world was Thanksgiving turkey. Roasted chicken would do as a substitute. I held her today when the vet gave her the shots. She had cancer under her tongue. We had a very good last week together. She had a pain patch that controlled the pain and she was able to run around outside and catch a bird (sorry, bird, but she enjoyed it). Last night she caught a cricket in the garage. I gave her all the tuna fish juice she wanted (6 cans in the last 2 days) as well as the turkey baby food that she could eat. I will miss her very much.

Sarah Lehan

Nathan was my "baby boy". I got him when he was a little puppy and he thought I was his mom. He saw me through a lot of hard times, and loved me the whole time. We had a special bond, he was my protector and my buddy and I still miss him very, very much. My father passed away a couple of years ago, I hope Nathan is with him (my dad really enjoyed whenever I brought Nathan around) and the others of my family that have passed. We will be together again someday, until then he will always be in my heart. I love you Nathan.

Kay

This is tribute to Navistar & C.A.T. 2 wonderful race horses!
That came into my life and gave me the best times I've ever had!
They are in my heart forever star was not just a race horse he was my whole life! A wonderful friend & partner. Thanks for the chance to show me that miracles do come true! Hope some day we can run that field bareback and free! I hope that you & your brother have green pastures, lots of oats & are waiting for me! Love you 2 forever!
p.s. Wait for me! Your human Lisa Jones
GOD BLESS ALL OUR PETS & Friends!

My sweet Navy girl! So loving and happy and cuddly and stoic. You taught me so much throughout our 7 years together. I thank God for the blessing of having you in my life! I will always love you, and I am sending all my love in spirit up to you right now. I know you are safe and happy now, having such a wonderful time being able to see again, and run again, and eat again, romping around playing all day with so many friends! I will see you later, my good girl. Mommie loves her Navy Girl, so much. For ever and ever.

My little girl. Although you've been gone for almost 9 years, I miss you as much today as when I told you good-bye. You were with me for 20 years--longer than any human, including my parents. I am so sorry I didn't know how to help you in the end. I can't go back and do it over, so I go on, and take better care of your brothers and sisters. Bastet sends her love, and you'd like the dogs. Your human friends still talk about you. See you someday at the Bridge. I love you still. Mamma

Neeley is my sweet angel cat who has been a part of my family for almost thirteen years.

I love you and miss you poohbear. You will never be forgotten.

Jennifer Seiler

Neika you will always be in my heart. You made my life so beautiful with every smile on your face and every kiss you gave me. I only pray you know how much I love you. And I pray in the years we spent together I was able to make you as happy and you made me. I miss you so much.

Tamara K.Gunta

For Neil
We miss you so much, honey. You have been gone from us for one week and one day. The pain is unbearable. You meant so much to our family. The kids are so lonesome with out you. Daddy misses having his coffee with you early in the morning. I miss our snuggles. We know you are in kitty heaven where there are no cars, and where there are plenty of mice and birds to catch. You will live forever in our hearts. You were our first. We love you, baby. Your family

Neiman, it has taken me a long time to full recover from the shock of your death and I am still extremely sad and I miss you terribly. Vincent passed away two years after you so I know you are glad to be together again, I only wish I was with you both. I can only wait for that day, to meet you at the Rainbow Bridge. I loved you so much and I hope you know that the day you were put to sleep was the worst day of my life but I did it because you were suffering so. I love you with all my heart and think of you every day my darling. We will meet in the end.

Melanie Morton Viktorin

My baby was the best. She would lick my face and put her paws on my cheeks when she would give me a kiss. She would always run in the bedroom and look at herself in the mirror. If I couldn't find her that is where she would be. I miss my baby so much. I would give anything to have her back. I love her so much. I only got to have her for a month before she got sick and died. It was the hardest day for me.

I LOVE YOU, NEKETA HAMIC!!

MOMMY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU!

Aloha oe my sweet little friend. Mahalo for all you did to bring love and happiness into our home. I'll miss your sweet little face looking in the front window, and watching you patiently pull your food from the bowl with your paw, one kibble at a time. You came to us just before Hurricane Iniki and sat quietly with us in the house. I know just holding you helped us to deal with all of the noise and aftermath. Mahalo for being there.

I buried your little body up on the land we just bought so now you'll always be with us. Look for Kiko, Alice and Ralphy boy. They'll take care of you until we can be there too.

Aloha,
Papa

I won't ever forget the day that I got her in San Antonio, the couple was moving and could only take one.. they saved her life, but decided she was the one they had to get rid of. They gave her to me, and Shane told me to take care of her.. he cryed when he put her and her things in my car. 2 weeks later she was living with 4 other dogs in Amarillo. She was my best friend, the only one the knew my dreams and she had attached to me dearly. She wanted to go hiking with us, and I should of left her home.. but I couldn't resist her eyes.. Now she is gone, and its been since August, but the pain is still here. Her spirit is running free,... in the canyon.. I miss her so. She was the bestest friend, the only one that was always there waiting for me. She's with a friend that died not to long after her.. they love each other and trust she is in good hands. One day we will meet again... Till then, I wish to give her my love always..

Wendy

Death of our horse that belonged to my 4 year old son, she had a stroke on 7/27/00, and after trying everything the vet could do, she was euthanized, she will forever be at rest behind our house. She will be dearly missed and never forgotten, Nell we love you. Lisa, Jamie and Cole Ousley

Nemo, rest in peace and say hello to Darryl. We love and miss both of you.

MOM

Little Nena Bird...I miss you so much...This has been such a sad event for us all...your little spirit helped so many of us through some very dark times...May we meet again...little divine creature of Love...

Sharon Lucchesi

Nermal,
You always brought us happiness, love and joy
you always had a kiss for us,
you affectionate little boy.
Now you are gone, the house is not the same
you will always be in our hearts,
like pictures in a frame.
You're now with your Buddy, you soul is free to roam,
but no travels will take you far enough
to have you leave this home.
Thank you Nermal for all the lovins'
We love you. By Mariann Greenlee

Nero our beloved dog--we'll always love and treasure our memory of your wonderful companionship and loyalty. We miss you.

Paul and Ann Galante

He was a very special little buddy of mine whom I woke up to for 19 years.
He would sure let me know when it was time to eat.
Several times a day and night. After the last few days he would lay by the pond under the branches and I knew it was his time to say goodbye. He had not eaten much in the last days of his precious life. I will miss you little man.
Rest in peace "Sporter".
Eternal love,
Mommy & Daddy

Mel Beard

Yesterday my husband and I said goodbye to our dear friend. We will miss him with all of our heart and soul. We know that one day we will be reunited with him, but it is until then that I will always have a heavy heart that I cannot hold him in my arms, kiss his sweet forehead and feel the warmth of his soft, billowy white fur. Someday I hope that I can remember him in his favorite spot by the window basking in the warmth of the sunlight and just smile and recall the good times we had together and the joy he brought us both. We love you Nic and you will always be in our hearts.

Jeanette, Bob, Calvin and Wags

It is difficult to fill the void created by your loss. Our little princess you are missed and loved more than you will ever know; That still amounts to only a tiny fraction, compared to the unconditional love you showed us.
Maybe, maybe we can be together again...let's hope we can be together again, as a family. Until then, you are and will always be just a thought away.

Love, Mommy and Dad.

Our special baby. You brought meaning and joy into our lives and every life you touched. You are proof that Angels exist. We love you, Nicholas.
You have left permanent pawprints in our hearts.

Love and kisses,
Mama and Papa and your Kitties

I can't say that Nick was Lassie or that he saved some one's life but he was one of my best friends. He was always their for me and he loved me for who I was. He was my dog for as long as I can remember.
I love u Nitter Doodles

C. Cook

No words can express how very much I love and miss you my little girl........Mommy is lost and very lonely without you....I will never be whole again until we are back together..........Mommy's little girl......the grief gets worse every day instead of easier......I miss you and love you with all my heart......you will always be my best friend

Yourtha Delp

When I found you 13 yrs ago I tried everything I could to find you a home, I did not want another dog, now I will have a hard time not having you here. I will miss you little girl till I see your sweet face and ever wagging tail at the bridge

Jo Labonte

Love always Moma

There is NO garbage or "throwaways". Everything/everyone is important to someone

Harriett & Bill

Nickie,
your time here on earth was so short. I never got to know you that well but I do know that you are a part of me and my family. You were a treasure. You had this light inside you that radiated around you and penetrated my soul. I hope that I will have eternity in heaven to spend time with you.

Sometimes I wonder why we had to invite cars. I rather walk a million miles than hear of someone who accidentally or purposefully ran other an animal. They are such gifts.

Nickie,
rest in peace my friend. Take care of Pookie, Yoshi, Calvin and Wylie for me.

Love always,
Renata.

Nickie and his twin sister, Nicole, were given to me for my high school graduation. At 36 years old, an only child, and two deceased parents, one might understand how precious Nick and Nicole are to me. Nickie was diagnosed with cancer this past year and had a rough road. However, that little guy was such a trooper and fought to the bitter end! The doctor indicated this morning that Nick probably wouldn't survive the weekend, so my husband & I agreed to put an end to his suffering. Nickie was the best cat I ever had. Nickie was laid to rest at 11:15AM today, February 18, in a beautiful field next to our beloved dog, Bandit. Nickie, please know how much we love you and miss you. We know you made it to Rainbow Bridge, but please know you don't need to wait for us. If you find mom & dad, go with them, until we meet again little buddy!!! Thank you for being my friend and companion for over 18 years, as well as adapting to the many recent changes in our lives. Thank you for the "washy washy" trick which you did so very well, and just thank you for being the good little kitty you were (despite all the mischievous things you managed to accomplish!!). You will be missed by Don and I, our friends and family, but most of all.....your little sissy, "Nicole". God what will she do without you, Nick?!?! You two did everything together, and she, too, cared for you to the end by washing your ears and face, when you had no strength! We love you!

Until we meet again,

Don & Deb Friedrichsen

Nickky, the first time I laid eyes on you, you were a little pup running next to the store attendant. Your cage at the pet store was empty, and I found out the workers in the furniture store used to take you next door and put you on the bed to play so it would draw customers in. I ruined their plans that day when I took you home with me. You had my heart from the moment we met. Those beautiful blue eyes will stay with me always. I will miss the long walks in the field, the car rides you got so excited about, playing hide and seek with you, and just having you look into my eyes with understanding when I talked to you. You were taken from me too soon my friend. I am so very sorry about that terrible night, and the car. I am sorry I did not get the chance to hug you one more time, and tell you I love you. I am sorry I did not get to say goodbye. Part of my heart has died with you, and will not be alive again until we meet in heaven. Keep mom company till I get there, and tell her, I miss her too. Love to you always.

Nicky was a loyal loving dog who will be terribly missed.

Janice

May you run and play at the bridge and find our loving Elsa waiting for you there...you missed your dog friend so much these past 3 years!!! We love you Nicky!!!

Betty Van Tulden

A real Buddy, missed by all of us.

Jean & Don

Sweet Nicky, the best ole' girl dog I ever had. We were together a long time, longer then both husbands put together. I love you. Until we meet again...

Susan

He was my Sweet Prince, my secret keeper, my cuddler, my lap blanket.
He will be greatly missed by all who loved him.

Susanne

Nicky, You were my friend and shadow for 15 years. I am lost without you but you suffer no more. I only hope and pray that I was able to give you as much love and joy as you gave me. Friends would come and go but you were always there loving me --unconditionally. I miss you!

Valerie

Exactly 6 months ago today on February 18, 2000, we sent Nicole's brother, Nickie, to Rainbow Bridge. Today, August 18, 2000, Nicole will join her long lost companion, best friend, and brother, Nickie at Rainbow Bridge. Nicole, you will always be our little angel baby. Thank you for a wonderful 19 years of friendship. You have truly been a blessing to us. It's so hard to let you go, but we couldn't watch you suffer any longer. We knew you weren't happy, was uncomfortable and in pain, plus you missed Nick, so now is the time for you and Nick to be reunited at Rainbow Bridge, and join mom & dad in heaven. Until we meet again.....We love you baby girl and will miss our little cocoa-bean! Sweet dreams Nicole and thank you baby!!!

Love Always and Forever,

Don & Deb

A true friend, Nig was a loyal, loving member of our family who loved to sit in our music room and listen to the piano. We will remember him always.

Kristine Baugh

I will miss you forever. Even though you are gone from my life you will always be in my heart.

Stacy Smith

Nikee will be missed but always remembered for the special boy that he was...my heart has a hole now but it will heal with memories of 16 terrific years! I love him dearly!

Laurie

Nikita -- a true and loyal friend forever -- you knew how to love and never let a person down -- you also knew that LOVE is ALL -- and you gave LOVE always.
I do not know how I will go on without you...

Norma Jane Holt

Rest in peace, my sweet baby. I love you and I will see you again, I promise.

Jennifer Martin

You were a candle in the wind

Deb Sarishvili

A very loved and special little dog. We miss her terribly.

Stan & Betty

Nikki came to me from a Mall pet store in Escondido, CA nearly 13 years ago. He was supposed to be a pure-bred Chihuahua, but he wasn't. (The pet store was eventually closed for tax evasion) What Nikki was, was a heart thief. He was black all over except for a "tuxedo" chest and a few white hairs on his lower lip, which when he was young made him look like the first "Got milk?" commercial. As he aged, he grew a very distinguished looking grey beard. He had the softest dog ears in the world and meaty little foot pads. He loved to eat and if he couldn't win you over with a simple two legged beg, he'd put his front paws together and actively "pray" until you could no longer resist. He was a friend and a buddy. He liked love on his own terms--that is he liked to initiate the snuggling. He had a way of trotting around with a little smile on his face that makes me feel warm inside even now. We had an island in our kitchen and he'd follow you around that island non-stop until you gave him food when we would clear dinner dishes. He always smelled good too. He was a noble little dog and he was sent to this world to give my husband his first experience with losing a loved one. (He was in heart failure for nearly a year. He fought valiantly to remain with us, but finally was called to his next life.) He's come to visit me twice in dreams since he left for the Rainbow Bridge on June 27th. Both times I woke up with a smile, knowing he had really been there. My husband and I both miss him terribly. He was such a special little dog. I'm sure he's stealing the angels' hearts and begging treats while he lounges in the sun waiting to reunite with us.

Judith, Matt, and Dog Sister Kelly

She was the most important being in our lives.
She will now and forever hold a piece of our hearts.
Until we are together as a family again my beloved
Nikki., wait for Mommy and Daddy near the Bridge..

We truely believe that we will be together again..
My love, being and heart is yours forever....

Jon and Marie Carucci

"TO MY LITTLE ONE"
To my best friend and companion for 8 yrs. NIKKI, you were always there for me, you never asked for anything from me. All you wanted from me was my love and my hugs. What I got from you was more than anyone could ever understand! You gave me life again when I didn't want it anymore (cause of the loss of my dad) My life was SO full again because when I looked in your eyes, I saw dad again, and you understood that somehow.
NIKKI, you gave me SO much ... ALL your love and you always were protecting me from everything and I was always there for you too ... even that day ... your last day ..... when I had to say "see you soon my little one, I LOVE you" I knew you were hurting and you looked at me to say "mommy ... help me .... I love you too "but" it's time now" That day 11:25 am ... the 3rd of January 2000 ...
I had ... NO... I didn't HAVE to be there ....
I was there for YOU because I LOVE you and even though my heart was breaking to have to let you go .... I knew I had to let you go. You took your last breath as you laid in my arms and the last words you heard were mine ..... "NIKKI mommy LOVES YOU my little one you WILL always be with me (this is SO hard to do right now)
NIKKI ... I miss you SOOOO much!!!!!

We will love you and remember you forever. Our special girl. We were blessed with you for 14-1/2 years. Our "Granny." A fighter till the end. Until we see you again...

Denise

Nikki - The hardest thing we have ever done is to let you go. We cared for each other all those years and pray we made the right decision to let you go when we did. Run and play again and know you live in our hearts forever.

Lee & John Arsenault

Nikki was my constant companion. We slept, ate, played and enjoyed quiet times together. She was my friend, companion, and baby. The day I put her to sleep was one of the worst days of my life but I know she enjoyed 19 healthy and happy years with me. I miss her terribly but I try to think of her in kitty heaven, healthy, happy and thinking about us as we think about her.

Briget

To the runt of the litter who grew so big in size and in our hearts, there will always be a spot there for you.
Love you sweetie, always,
Dad, Mom & Cori

TO MY BEST FRIEND:
Your time with us was too short, but the love you gave is never-ending. We will miss you dearly, our big girl walks, our rides, our fights over the bed and the ways you rested your head. We will never forget you, your wolf like attitude, your Nikki-nuggets and the way you guarded your favorite fluffys. Mommy and daddy will miss you very much. You will always remain in our hearts and our thoughts. You are and will always be my best friend.
Everyone loved you so much. You will always be Mommy's baby.
Love you always, Mommy, Daddy, Grandmas, Tara, Michael, Mariah
And everyone else who's life Nikki touched.
December 25, 1992 - April 10, 2000

You'll always be loved, and forever missed.

Raymond & Kelly

The stress of the Ice Storm, Maine 1998 turned a harmless feline enterice corona virus into a deadly fight for life. FIP claimed these wonderful rescued animals. For the days and years that they shared with the Tribe, we give thanks.

Jan Running

Even though you have left us Nikki you will never be forgotten--play nice with Tasha in heaven. We love you, Patty, Jessica & Johnny

Goodbye my Little Nikki
I'm going to miss you so much. The past 12 years you have been my little shadow and so faithful to me and always by my side. We both have gone thru so much and always together.
We always knew what the other was feeling and going thru and we were always side by side for each other. Understanding.
.I feel so empty without you. Nothing can take your place in my heart. I know you'll be waiting for me at the gates to call your name. May you find peace and no more suffering in Pet Heaven
Till we meet again....
Goodbye my Little Girl. Love and miss you so much.

Arlene Kodlowski

Please pray for us that we might cope with our babys' passing. No greater love have we ever had.. To know her was to love her with all your heart and soul......

John & Marie Carucci

To my Bean. You were my best friend and I miss you so much! I think about you every day, especially today- Your 18th Birthday. I am so thankful for every day I had with you. I am comforted to know that you were happy and kind every single day of your life and to know that I will meet you again at the Rainbow Bridge. Until then, you live on in the many hearts you touched. Thank you for opening my heart to loving animals. I believed that when you were alive you were an angel on earth. Now I know you are an angel in Heaven. I love you baby!!! Love, Jamie

Funny, crazy girl - I'll always miss you. Wait for me.

Dear Nilla, my sweet, beautiful girl. I miss you so much but must wait til we meet again, at the Rainbow Bridge. You will always be in our hearts and we will always love you. Mom, Zera, Casey, and Mazie.

My Nimmie, You were the first pet that I had a deep and special bond with. I'll never forget you because you did so much for me. But one day you crawled up my sleeve and into my heart. I love you, my Nims. Tis you, 'tis you, must go and I must bide...

Nina was a most special dog who filled our lives with joy. We miss her every day and hope she is waiting for us at The Rainbow Bridge.

Another family pet, Prince, left this earth on July 13, 2000. He was a loving and faithful companion for 14 years and we hope he knows just how much he was loved. We pray that Nina and Prince find each other at The Rainbow Bridge, along with other loved family pets who have passed on.
God bless them and love them all.

Gloria & Randy Everett

My sweet little Nina,

It's hard to believe you left this world more than six months ago. How I wish I could hold you in my arms and see those sparkling, beautiful eyes again. I miss you so much. You were like my daughter, my friend, my companion, my bed warmer, and my loyal protector all rolled into one. You were more human, that is, more compassionate, caring and pure at heart, than most people I know. And your intelligence and quirky personality made you all the more like just another member of the family.

I feel so empty and heartbroken now. The nights are so lonely and cold without you by my side.

I wish I could have been there when you decided your time was up, but I guess you decided it would be easier on me that way. I just want you to know how much I love you and how grateful I am for the 12 years of happiness you gave me. You will always have a special place in my heart. And some day I know we will be together again.

Love always,  
your mommy

Oh Ga-Ga we miss you so much. Your memories are as strong as if you was still with us. Tamone even misses you, believe that! She misses fighting with you : ) Your 17 Plus years with us was the best we've had, it's so lonely here without you. We remember you curled up on your chair in a ball with your head tucked under, you swatting Tamone behind the door while she is on the other side, you hitting the ball across the floor. We miss your loud motor (purr). I miss you on my lap. We have pictures of you all over the house and we've ordered a stone for your grave and we have a beautiful mum on your grave, you're buried on top of Barney, so we can visit you both at the same time. I have 2 more mums with some pretty spring flowers. OH Baby we miss you so much, don't you ever forget us, we will meet again, YOU come show us the way..sweet angel. Love you, Your family forever

My Nino left this world, it was unexpected, a very hot day for San Francisco, Nino got run over, his head was destroyed. I couldn't do anything to stop the vehicle and in my mind I wish I can turn back the time and save you but I can't and that makes me so sad.
My Nino was so dear to me, We used to go to the park every afternoon, He loved the car ride..(He used to recognize it by the name of The PEEp-PEEp for him) I know I will never have a dog like him, and if He could listen to me I will tell him:

My little dog, I love so much, tell God my little baby..that I am so proud to be your Dad, you were little but full of love and energy..you were brave and vibrant and you gave me the best of all times, tell God my little fighter that I am thankful to have the opportunity to meet you in my life..you are irreplaceable and the joy that only you could ever have brought to my life.

Thank you Nino, I hope to see you sometime..

My Nino you'll be always in my heart.

Nipper, was my friend and companion for 19 1/2 yrs. She was my boss, and for sure the best alarm clock there was to be had. Nipper had wonderful purrs and loved the sunshine. I shall miss her very much. So will her brothers and sister. I thank God for giving her to us. Will love you forever and see you at Rainbow Bridge. Love Mommie

Nish, I hope you're waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge. My big alpha male, always beating the other guys up. You were so sweet to people, everyone loved you and you will be missed. I'm glad you're not in pain anymore. I love you Nishy.

This tribute is made in memory of Nitro, my dear friends "gift from God" who passed away today after a sudden but brief illness. He was not long in this world, but now he is free to run and play with all the others at the rainbow bridge. We'll miss you

Marci

Our sweet and loving baby boy...we miss you, we love you. Mommy, Daddy and Bailey, Smartie too! Rest my little buckaroo.

My Dear Sweet Noah: On October 31, 2000 I had to put Marshall to rest, and sent him to be with you...I had Marshall for 14 years, I had you for only 8, short, but beautiful years...you and Mars were the two guys I kept when I got divorced...and you guys got me through so very much...I don't know what I would have done without you and Mars, especially when dad passed away in March of 1996 and then mom passed away in September 1996...how much you two meant to me...and then one day I found you collapsed on the floor, I rushed you to the vet...and you had had a blood clot...and though I could have waited a few more days for an ultra sound...as I held you that day...cold, shivering,
and knowing you probably would never be able to walk again...I just couldn't put you through another day of what you were going through...so, I did the most compassionate thing and laid you to rest...I held you as you took your last breath...and I wept so hard...how precious you were...how much Marshall and I missed you...and how I remember that day, when I was at Mom and Dad's house, after I had left my husband and I found you laying on the floor, having convulsions and seizures...turning blue around your mouth...though the vet didn't open til later in the morning...I took you down there immediately...he couldn't do anything til later but did say that it didn't look good...I told him to do one x-ray before we made any decision...good thing he did, because all you was a concussion in your stomach area and it was treatable with an oxygen therapy...when I went back later...you were yourself again...how close I came to losing you then...but I didn't and we had 8 years together...I know that you were overshadowed by Marshall...but I hope you know that I loved you so very much...and your ashes sit above my couch in a special wooden urn with your picture in it...I look at it often...and when Marshall's ashes come back in the wooden
urn, you two will be together...and I will look at both of you often...what a special meeting it must have been when Marshall came over the bridge and saw you there and you saw him coming...you must have been very happy to see him again...anyhow, Noah, if I had known about this website sooner I would have written to you sooner...but I found this website after Marshall crossed over the bridge and I have written a tribute or two to him, and tonight I wanted to send one to you...Christmas is coming and it's my first Christmas without Marshall...so it's hard...but I still have Wing Nut and now I have Chippy...and they will see me through...and since it is Marshall's first Christmas without me...I am counting on you to see him through...
I want you and Marshall to know how much you meant to me,
how much joy you gave me, how very special you were, and
how very much I miss you and how very much I LOVE YOU...
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your love and devotion...you are forever in my heart...June

Even though you are no longer here Noah you will always be with us. You are very much missed by your whole family and especially by your brother Tyler. When you disappeared on January 28th, 2000 we could only hope that someone took you into their home and loves you as much as we love you.

Jeff Swanger & Debbie Grim

I chose you because you looked intelligent, placid and friendly,

(You were standing on your hind legs, looking through the glass),

And you were.

You deserved the best food,

(You loved strawberry yogurt, banana, and chicken best.)

And you got it.

You were extremely clever for such a little fellow and deserved credit,

( Everyone at school loved watching you run through the maze looking for the kabana, for Biology),

And you got it.

You deserved a little house, in which to make your nest with tissues,

(Your little blue rody-gloo decorated with stickers),

And you got it.

You liked time to run around and play,

(You especially loved my walk-in wardrobe),

And you got it.

You deserved all the love and affection in the world, that I could possibly give you,

(My little friend),

And you got it.

You didn't deserve to suffer in the end, when you got sick,

(I did it for you even though it hurt me so terribly much to see you go),

And you didn't.

You were my little friend,

(I love and miss you so much)

And you will always be.

(In loving memory of my beloved little friend Noddy, whom I cherish so much and who was put down today so that he wouldn't suffer.)

Rest in peace forever - one day I'll hold you again and we can be together once more.

Love Morrigan

To my friend and partner:
I miss you more than words could ever say. I hope that you are running and jumping in the clouds just like you did on earth. Eat, play and sleep comfortably now as your pain is over. I just wish there was something else I could have done to keep you on earth longer. Thank you for the wonderful years of trust and confidence you gave me. There will never be another as special as you. I love you, miss you and will forever keep alive the memories till we can be together that wonderful team that we were. Now that you have you wings, fly, fly high and free....I love you Traci

My dear, faithful companion for over sixteen years, who taught me how to love without fear, and who gave me unconditional love , and helped me through many difficult periods. I love her dearly and miss her very much. I will always remember her and am so thankful for the time we had together. She taught me how to play when she was younger and brought back the child in me, made me laugh again, and taught me compassion in her old age.

Noel was a special puppy. We got her from the pound and she is a survivor of Parvo. She never grew out of puppiness and was always there when a bag russled. Her little face was always present to ask for a cookie when we went to the coffee pot. My favorite memory of her is chasing her tail and went faster going the other way. The other is her little face in the window.

Noel will be missed by all her knew her as the fastest puppy kiss in the west. :-(

Lee

Our sweet little Noki kitty came to us at just 7 weeks old, weighing only 1.2 pounds. Her name is Finnish, meaning "soot" since she was solid black. Missing her mom and littermates, during those first few weeks she would sleep on our faces for comfort. She soon grew into a beautiful cat, with the silkiest fur we'd ever petted. Noki was diagnosed at 15 months with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a heart disease that she inherited from one of her parents. After 21 more months of monitoring, medication, and mountains of love, she passed to the bridge just five days shy of her 3rd birthday. She blessed our lives more than she ever knew. Noki will live in our hearts always as our first precious furbaby.

Some of our favorite memories of Noki: Her soft but insistent trill in the early morning, urging us to open the bedroom window so she could sit on the sill. How she would bring down Christmas stockings and fuzzy earmuffs that she found upstairs, presenting them to us as gifts. Her cute habit of licking water from Mom's hands when they were being washed. The way she sat on the back of Dad's desk chair in the morning as he ate his breakfast and checked his email. Her licking our noses until she would signal that she was done by ending with a nibble. Her big beautiful loving yellow eyes. We miss her deeply.

We love you forever, Noki. Thank you for enriching our lives by spending your short time on earth with us. We are better people for it.

-Mom and Dad (Gina and Christopher)

Nola, my introduction and teacher in all things Irish Wolfhound....a long awaited puppy, a funny adolescent, a beautiful mature hound. You lost your battle with heart disease and cancer at almost 10 years of age.

I miss you my old friend,

Always in my heart until we meet again.

Pam, Amadan, and Oonagh

It's been a bad month here at Posse central. After losing Mayah last month, I had to put my most favouritist kitty in the world down yesterday morning due to acute renal failure. As he was completely uncomfortable, I had to put aside my selfish desires and let him be at peace. Noodle was one of my very best friends- I dread getting out of the shower every day 'cause he won't be screaming at the door for me to let him in so he can dry out the bathtub. I dread coming home 'cause he isn't waiting on the 7th stair screaming at me 'cause I haven't been home enough. And I dread going to bed 'cause he isn't there to lie on my feet, keep them warm, and protest in a sleepy voice if I nudge him while he is sleeping. He isn't tripping me in the kitchen when I open tuna- in case I might forget he's there and LOVES tuna, he isn't sitting on the back of the sofa keeping me company while I watch TV- even though he couldn't care less what is going to happen next on ER or the X-Files, or even the news, and he isn't sitting on my lap right now while I type on the computer- shedding happily all over all the clothes that I own. He isn't waiting for me to put a dark piece of clothing where he can lie on it and leave clumps of his beautiful carmel and white hair (NEVER sat on the light coloured stuff), and I can't hug him and tell him how much I love him and miss him.

You came to our lives only a few years ago. You will be missed so very much. It was the way you played, the way you asked for food. Everywhere I went you were right there behind me. And sleeping, you had to lay as close to me as you could get. I love you so much, and miss you very bad. I will see you in heaven when I get there.

Patricia Yancey

Nora we adore you. We will miss you always. You fit in this family from the moment we met you.

Our love and thoughts will be with you.

May you rest in peace sweetheart.

Trish & Jeff

An impish spirit that would not be ignored.
She had a kind and true heart.
Always given to play, especially running and tug-of-war.
She gave us love, loyalty and happiness in equal measure.

Steve & Cathy Rhodes

She was very special . I will miss her dearly until we meet again.

Tribute to Norman and all Other Beloved Pets:

Beyond Tomorrow

I know that your heart thinks it's breaking,
I see the tears that you cry,
I know you feel pain but this was my gain
and someday you'll understand why.
~
No one is promised forever
our years are so precious and few
and I was so blessed because I got to spend
my few precious years there with you.
~
Many questions have been left unanswered
and the grief overwhelms you, I see
I am here in a place, with a smile on my face,
where together someday we'll be.
~
Be patient and know there is healing
I am watching you now from afar,
I am there in the trees and the whispering breeze
and the twinkling of the first evening star.
~
I am there as earth wakens from winter
when all around is fresh and brand new
I am there in your heart and have been from the start
and my memory will help see you through.
~
I know that your heart thinks it's breaking,
but after your work there is through
you will find me just beyond tomorrow,
where I'm patiently waiting for you.

in memory of Norman

My big guy was born on 4/6/86 and he passed over the rainbow bridge 7/5/00. He was such an inspiration to me, and my other two cats. He made my day start out pleasureable by jumping on the toilet seat and wanting his head and back scratched to maximize his purring content. His day was filled with bird watching from his hammack on the patio, and greeted me first thing when I got home from work. He was not a lap cat, but he was a near to me cat. He loved being petted, but not held. Very independent boy! I have gone through many adversitives, and he was so patient, kind, and compansionate always at the right times.
For over 14 years, the memories are many and no bad times, except when he became ill on 6/16/00 and was diagnosed with terminal lymphoma. My baby went so quick. There is a small poem for humans that I modified to fit my wonderful cat,

Norton:
God saw He was getting tired
and a cure was not to be
So He put his arms around Him
and whispered
"Come with Me"
With tear filled eyes I watched Him
suffer and fade away.
A golden heart stopped beating,
loving paws put to rest,
God broke my heart to prove to me

HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST

My companion, inspiration, and best friend will never be replaced, and my love for him is forever.

Noussa was a skinny black cat who came to me from a rescue centre. She spent 7 years as a true faithful friend who loved being with us and sharing our time at home. She was a sister to Chatsi who misses her greatly and she was our friend. En hebeke Noussa.....

Jan Martin-Essoui

to our Nova....
we feel you inside.
we know you are here.
My, how beautiful you are.
My, how we love you.
....c, b

I loved you so. I waited so long to get you and you, knowing your life would be so short, lived it to the fullest.
No one could not love you. I will always love & miss you terribly. I will never forget you and someday I will see you again.

Love mom

Here's the story of Nugget... my baby kitty

My mom is a realtor, and when she was showing a house about a month ago, she called me up, and told me there's 3 kittens for free, so my dad and I rushed over there. They were all so adorable... we had to take them all. Their mother was only 1 year old, but the people who owned the house lived on a farm... so the cat got around, and apparently found a guy. Anyways, we took them home, they were 6 weeks old. Took them to the vet the next day, to find out they were all boys! My dad always said "no boys, they will urinate everywhere"... well so much for his saying. We fell in love with them right away. They got their shots, everything was good... and we named them. The black & white was (was my dad's) is Oreo... the orange and white one (mine) is Cubby... and the one that's all orange (my mom's) is Nugget. 2 weeks went by, grew more in love with them. We noticed that Cubby had one eye that was all watery, so we decided to ask the doctor the next week. And that Nugget wasn't really growing too much.3 week.... they checked them all out, all healthy cats at 9 weeks old. They gave Nugget some medicine for his eye. And they said if the eye didn't stop being watery, they will check his tear duct when we get him declawed next week. And they said Nugget will just be one that's smaller. (we had another cat just like that) Well, the 4th week came, (this last week) all through the week, they were all so attached to each other, always together. Friday (Sept.21rst) we took them over to get declawed. As I passed my mother the carrier, with all 3 in there, I said" bye guys". Well, the next day, mom got a call around 10:30. The woman on the phone said " We have bad news... Nugget never woke up from the gas" Mom stated crying, I didn't have a clue why... and then the looked at me with tears in her eyes and said "Nugget died". I couldn't believe it! Nugget was only 10 weeks old, we've only had him for 4 weeks. The said they tried, and tried to bring him back, but he was gone. He slipped away while he was sleeping. Mom and I were devastated... we called dad, and he was shocked. We cried the whole day. I kept thinking about the things we'll never do again... he'll never beg for my food again, he'll never sit on my stomach and cry until I pet him, he'll never jump on my jeans and stay there until I pick him up, he'll never sleep in my arms again. I couldn't do anything the whole day, I was in such pain. I went through denial, I thought they mixed up named or something, and everything would be ok when we picked them up tomorrow. Then guilt, I thought I could have done something, waited longer, so he could get bigger, and stronger before he was declawed. Them I was angry at the doctors, I kept thinking there was more they could have done, like if I were there, I could have saved him. Today, the day after his death, I thought what it will be like, to go into the building, where my baby died. I cried most of the morning. Them mom and I went over, waited a long time to get a room. (never go on Saturdays!) finally, after about an hour, we got a room, I carried the empty carrier into the room, thinking I came in with 3, and only leaving with 2. Well, the man came in and said there's some good news, and some bad news. I though oh my God! What if another one died. He said, Oreo did great, perfect surgery. Cubby, was good, they checked his eye duct, flushed it out, everything is fine, just keep on giving him the medicine, and it should clear up. Then when he got to the card with Nugget's name on it, I started crying, and so did mom. He went out and got a box of tissues. Said he was sorry, they did an autopsy (don't think I spelled that right) and Nugget had an enlarged left side or his heart. Mom said he would have not lived for long anyways, that he would of had a heart attack eventually. Mom said it was better for him to slip away in his sleep, rather than have him suffer of a heart attack. I knew in my heart that he was right, but I just wanted him back. He was so tiny, and even though he was only with us for 4 weeks, I loved him so much. My mom asked what could they do with Nugget, the doctor said that he would be cremated, and we would be given the option the have his ashes back, or not. But it would be expensive. We decided not to have his ashes sent back. I will always remember him in my heart, and love him always. The doctor told us there was a lady doing his surgery, and after everyone tried to bring him back, but it failed... the lady couldn't do anymore work, she had to go home, she was devastated. Well, we left the place, both of us crying, and the other 2 cats, Oreo and Cubby crying in the cage. They had to of known something was wrong, they loved Nugget to much, I don't know how they will take it, after the figure out after a while, that he's not there anymore. Well, we got home, Oreo, and Nugget are doing fine, the other cats we have -- Sissy (5), Sassy(5), Skittles (3), Precious (6 months), Reeses( 6 months), Peaches (6 months) are being sweet to them, licking them , and playing with them. I just still can't believe I lost him, I loved him very much, and I always will, but it seems like he's just there, waiting for me to pick him up. But, I'm positive that he's up in heaven with God, watching over us. I miss him so much. And I know all the other cats do... Oreo was crying for him a little while ago, looking for him. Well, now here I am writing this to you. I know that I will always love him, now it's a little better because I mostly think of all the things he did with me. He was the sweetest, the one who cuddled every chance he got. And it's kinda scary to think just 2 days ago, he was sleeping with me, on my bed, and when I woke up, he was there, right next to me, the first one I saw in the morning. I hope I will meet him once again, when I join him & God in heaven. I'm looking forward to that day, all I can do now is celebrate his life he had with us, even though it was 4 weeks, he was very much loved, and will always be. But, I remember what the doctor, said, it could be genetic... so now my mom and I are scared to death to take the other 2 to get neutered... they might die of heart related problems.

Stephanie

My sweet, sweet Nugs, oh how I miss you. I will always remember your sweet ways, you greeting everyone with giving them your paw. I know that you are free of pain, and that you can walk and play again. This house is so empty and quite without you. I will always love and remember you. You have a piece of my heart, as I have a piece of yours. You have fun playing, and we will see each other again on the rainbow bridge. I love you

Taffy

Nugget, I can't believe that it has been one year since we have been apart. I have missed you so much. I look at your pictures all the time and I still cry for you. You are and always will be my little sweet pea. I remember our walks and everytime I see ice cream I think of you. I still see you running and having fun everytime I am at the farm, you sure did love to run down there. But I know that you are still there running in the fields. I did get another puppy which I'm sure that you are aware of. Her name is Mollie and she is a golden also. She reminds me so much of you, especially when she throws that paw at you. Even though I have her and love her, she will never fill the void that you left in my heart. My memories of you are still so strong, and always will be. We had such wonderful times together and we will have them again when we meet on the rainbow bridge. You wait for me sweetie, cause when the lord calls me, I will be looking for you and calling your name, I want one of those sweet kisses and your unforgettable paw greetings. You take care sweetie, and keep running and playing and having fun. I miss you dearly and think of you daily.

Love and kisses

Don't forget me, wait for me sweetie I will be with you one day. Until that day comes, have fun, and save a big sloppy kiss for me. I love you sweet pea. Till we meet again.

Well Nugget this is year three and I still miss you as if where just yesterday, I still remember our last goodbyes. I think of you everyday and I still cry for you. You where and still are one of my best friends. I know that you are free of pain and that you are running up there with all your friends, and that does make me feel a little better. It still hurts so bad at times. You should have seen some familiar faces this past year, Porky and Pat, you make sure you give them sloppy kisses, and watch over them. You take care Nugget and go have lots of fun, we will be together again. You wait for me sweetie, I love you and miss you.

My precious, precious Little Nug. I cannot begin to say how much I love you and miss you forever.
My heart breaks every time I see your little, spotted, intelligent face for I will never forget you. You will always have a special place in my heart.
Thank you for your unconditional love, for being my best friend in the whole world, and for always being there for me with your sweet, wet kisses when I was sad or mad.
This is not good-bye forever, Nug. Just remember, meet me at the Rainbow Bridge - I'll be waiting for you Lil Buddy.

Your Mom

NUIS has been my special friend for 17 years. She had a purr that never quit - until yesterday.

Nuis never had a bad day. She was always in the best of humor and loved everyone and every-cat and every-dog. I could count on her to be funny, loving, playful everyday. She would "latch on" to my t-shirt or be held like a baby and just purr and purr and purr endlessly.

Her favorite things to do were to sit in the sun, ride in the wheelbarrow, and be with me. Her biggest claim to fame was a 60-mile ride on the back of a pick-up truck in a pile of haybales.

Nuis looked just like Taffy. An orange girl. But with a Yoda face. Still most people couldn't tell them apart and that's how she came to be mine. The folks at the barn would think they were feeding Taffy when they were really feeding Nuis. Nuis loved food - especially Ukrop's chicken and would quiver when she saw it and, if she could, would knock the baggie out of my hands.

I won't dwell on her illnesses. I'd have done anything and spent any amount of money to keep her here and healthy. But it wasn't to be. She had an easy passing.

I look for her everywhere - on the bench on the porch or framed in the barn's doorway. I miss our time together on the sofa watching "Wishbone."

I love you, Sweet Baby Girl. I miss you. You were my best friend and I don't even think I knew it so completely and utterly until yesterday. Love you, Nuisance-Puissance, my angel kitty for the millenium >^..^<

Love,
Your Mom

I so hope you are at peace, Nutty. I miss you so much. You will be with the other furries now, including Parsley, Penny and Pudsey. Look after each other until I see you again. All my love, your mam xxxxxxxx

Nutmeg was a gentle dog with an extraordinarily kind heart who opened my own heart to the potentialities of love. He died almost as long ago as he lived---3200 days---but I still think of him with immense affection every single day.

She Was My Best Friend; I Loved Her and She Will Always Be In My Heart.
