1999 Tributes

Faith thru Fuzzy

To my "other daughter"
Faith I miss you more than words can say.
I hope you are resting in peace.
I love you and always will.
Love, Mommy

She loved us and we loved her. She will be greatly missed.

Marsha

You were a special girl - people always wanted to pet you and know what kind of dog you were. We loved you and we will miss you so, but we'll always see you running through the mist by the ocean's edge, running across the polo field and running across the meadow up on the rim. We'll see you running laps around the yard and diving into the swimming pool - we'll see you in a thousand different places and a thousand different ways. You were our first, and for the rest of my life, whenever I light a candle, I'll think of you and be grateful for the light you cast into our lives.
Thanks for picking me out, old girl.....

Denise and Mickie

Oh Fanny. Letting you go is so hard. You've been in my life for what seems like forever. Thank you for being so important to me. For all the hugs and purrs. All the friendship and love. I will miss you so much. So much. So much. Please sleep in peace. Find Homer and be with him again. And know that your life mattered to us. That no one will ever be able to fill the hole. WOW - what a life we had together pretty girl. What a life.

Kelly

My dog died 4 years ago, but I would like to remember her now. She was a great friend.

God Bless you Farrah! Pattie is with you now -- "PLAY NICE!"

Linda A. Fedor

"Sometimes a special soul crosses one's path..."
To: my Pumpkin Pie, my Babycat, my Honey Pie.
You have deeply touched my life and changed it forever.

Sharon

She had a mellow, easygoing intelligent and lovable nature.

We shall miss this wonderful, unique creature every day of the rest of our lives and will strive to keep her spirit close to our hearts.

Bill and Chris

For Faux -- although you were only here for a short while, you brightened our lives and earned a special place in our hearts. We loved you, we miss you, and will wait to see you on the other side at the Rainbow Bridge. Until then I will think of you there, well, out of pain, chasing butterflies.

Love - Your Human Momma

I love you fat girl you are always with me in heart and mind, love Hershey, mom and dad

Meegyn Bullock

Dearest Fawn we love you and we will miss you always.

Beth and David

FeeFee was the best friend I ever knew. She was truly my little sister (actually, my big sister because she was a year older than me). I love her with all my heart and I will NEVER stop loving my little angel. Fee just didn't quite make it to her 20th birthday, but she can celebrate this year in Heaven. Praise the Lord for His goodness and mercy; without Jesus, I could never get through this. I know my FeeFee is in Heaven because the Bible tells us that the lion will lie down with the lamb, and when Jesus returns He will be riding a white horse. This is proof enough for me that my baby made it to that grand and glorious city. As long as she greets me at the pearly gate when I arrive at my Heavenly home, I will be ecstatic. My Fee was the best. She'll live on in my heart forever.

Stephanie Garrett

We were a pair of strays who brought love and joy to each other. We both shared love together. I still love you, as I know that you still love me.

C. Kennie

It's been one year since you went to the Rainbow Bridge and I as well as your three children miss you greatly. You will always be in my heart as the cat who saved my life. May God and his angels provide for you in every way. Until we meet at the Bridge, know that you are loved always.

Constantine Kotoulas

Felicia was a dear friend and companion to us for 14 years. She was always there with a purr and a nudge for attention. Of our several other cat friends, Felicia was always the best behaved. She brought us joy, laughter, and comfort. We will miss her very much.

Ann and Phil Laughlin

Until we meet again dear friend

Kathy

Please pray for my kitty Felicia, who passed on so suddenly from a liver disease. I know that she is now in a better place with no hurt.

Denise

I knew you for two years, and you've been gone for one. Maybe if I had found you just a little earlier, we could have beaten this thing. You are the best friend I had, Boo!

Timothy Rogers

My beautiful dancing, laughing dog. I will always miss you.

Susan Shea

A shelter cat who adopted us and brought joy and cat hugs into our lives and sorrow when he left. We will miss him until the day we meet again.

Frances and Clive

Felix and Phantom...We were at the pet store the other day to get food and treats for the gang. There was a cat adoption league there and we happened to notice a little black kitten curled in a corner. When we went over she reached out and touched my face with her paw. We took her right home. I've told her all about her big brothers that are no longer here, but over the bridge, and she has decided to sleep curled up by my head where you slept Felix so I won't be sad any more. She makes me feel better, but I still miss you guys every day. I hope that you are having fun and know that someday I will see you. I love you. "Mom"

Not a days goes by I don't think of you both. I love you and miss you. Frtitz and Samantha miss you and say "hello".

Megan Meixner

Fella, my handsome Boston Terrier, was always a gentleman. He accepted all animals into his home and everything that happened around him was magical. My heart is terribly heavy with sorrow and nothing in life will ever be the same without him. He was my "Cinderfella", my "Fellerella" ... he was my heart. I love him so much and hope he knows how much I miss him. I'm sure all the beloved pets at the Rainbow Bridge were happy when they saw him coming. I hope he knows we will meet again. For now I can only comfort myself in the knowledge that he is young and healthy now. I hope he is happily playing with his tennis ball and doing his "dance of joy".

Michele Foran

Woman's best friend! Sadly missed by Mommy!

"Best Dog in the World" - My little Fella. I still miss you so much. I can't believe it will soon be 2 years. Thank you for trying so hard, like we did, to beat the cancer. I'm glad you had one good month at the end where you would run as fast as you could from the other side of the yard when you would spot me. And you were able to bark, once again, for your Filaribit and at the birds and squirrels. Even though I must convince myself that we did all we could do for you, I still find myself wondering, what if we had found it sooner. I know you would have liked nothing better than to have stayed with us longer. I feel we were cheated of a few years of your love and you were cheated of much happiness. You were always our little happy dog. You will never know how deeply saddened I continue to be and how much you were and will always be loved by us. But I am glad you are now free from pain. I look forward to the day when you spot me at the Rainbow Bridge, lick my neck again as I embrace you, and the time when we will never be separated again.

Hugs and Kisses,

Your mother and dad

Fender, you touched our lives in ways that I never expected a pet to. You introduced us to our neighbors and many new friends. We can never thank you enough. Our hearts our heavy with your loss. Please rest in peace knowing you were a great influence on our lives. We love and miss you. Mike and Kay

Feral Cat was such a noble little creature. And, so inextricably entwined with her person, Judy, that I can't imagine Judy's house without her. I am blown away by Feral Cat's resolve to stay alive to see her Mommy one last time. Hopefully she was mostly in heaven during those cold, wet last hours and hanging on to her earthly body just to say good-bye to Judy, to give and receive that one last gift. That little cat was truly extraordinary and such an inspiration: she went against every one of her better, self-protecting instincts to love and be loved by Judy. And out of their love, she came to trust other humans who walked up their front walk.

Feral Cat is buried by the porch where for the last year or so she bravely and valiantly shared her life fully with her Mommy and treated visitors such as me to her all-knowing gaze. Six years earlier, she and her kittens were trapped, her kittens tamed and adopted and she herself spayed and released to the woods behind Judy's house. It took her almost five years to move from her feeding station by the driveway to the porch. She will be missed until she returns to the earth or those of us who knew her are fortunate enough to pass over the Rainbow Bridge and be together once more.

Fergie, you were the greatest mate anyone could have asked for, for 8 wonderful years. Daddy misses you and sees you every day sitting on the mantel. You will always be loved and missed. Daddy will allows have you with me now, and Mom Mom & Pop Pop miss you as well.

We miss you Fergie!!!!!!!

Fergie we love you and will miss you greatly! You live in our hearts always! Your memories bring us great joy!

Loretta Pearson

My brave baby battled CRF for 3 weeks before needing my help to cross over. His physical form is buried in a sunny spot in my yard where one can hear the birds in the day and the frogs all night long. Maud and I still miss him.

Leslie

For 2 ferrets so cruelly killed by an intruder in Brookline, Mass.; bless you little ones, your suffering is over. May you be greeted by the guardian angels at the Rainbow Bridge and know that many tears are being shed for you back here on earth. May you dance happily with friends in your new life.

Ronnie

Festus,  
You have been my friend, my sounding board and my companion. You have been with me in so many good & bad times and letting you go was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I am glad I was there with you when your soul left for Rainbow Bridge.  
I will forever miss your head-butts, your summersaults you did when you got excited, your ear piercing meooooooow and especially the way you so lovingly laid by my side in bed and kitty massaged my arm.  
Its only been one day and I have not stopped crying, I miss and love you so much and one day we will meet again, but for now you live on in my heart.

Dawn Ryan

Fido ( a very special Gerbil): we watched your birth and just thought you were wonderful. You stayed with us for 2 1/2 years. We had lots of fun together. We will miss you. God came for you this morning very quietly and peacefully. Go now with Buttons, Tiffany & Amber, until we all meet with the angels.

Schlof Gazunt;

Love Mom

Fido was a dog in name only. Actually, he was a very old and loving soul sent here on lend-lease to patiently teach and guide all of his human students about gentleness and grace and dignity and courage. I have no idea why my husband and I were selected to provide for his physical care and well-being for the 12-plus years we had him with us but I feel humbled and honored that we were his. He left us nearly 2 years ago and devastated two veterinary practices, a legion of fans and admirers and his adoring "brother", our Ridgeback, Jacob. I hope he knows how much we love him.

Sheila Beckwith

My best friend and buddy in the whole world; who is loved and will always be thought of and dearly missed. Mere words cannot express the loss of a dear loved one. He was a very big part of our family and we will all miss him dearly. He was lovingly called The Birdman of Burlington.
See you at the Rainbow Bridge Fiesel.

your loving family

I wish to thank and pay tribute to not only Fila but also to my other friends as well. To my best friends; Eddie, Bubba and Filas brothers and sisters who went before her, Niglet, Adidas, and you Fila. Me your brother and your mother whom are still with me, we LOVE you all and miss you very much.

So I tribute this to all of you. Thanks for a wonderful friendship

Love,
Wendy,Bandit,and Ivy

Your little brother Willis and little sister Angel miss you very much, and so do Mommy and Daddy.

Brad and Kim Thompson

We will always miss our beloved Fima the sweetest little birdie with brilliant, almost human personality. Fima was ill almost whole year of his short live, but he gave us a lot of love and pleasure.

Yelena, Alina and Vladimir Kelman

Fine was 13, and an exceptionally passive, loving Yorkie. He loved rides in the car, cuddling in the morning, and ""helping"" his dad wash the airplane.

He started to get pretty sick a few weeks ago, and it turned out to be cancer. We spared no expense or effort, but the vet and I agreed that he needed to be put to sleep.

My wife and I buried him in the backyard of friends who love dogs, which I think was nice of them. Then, we all joined hands and said a prayer of thanksgiving to God for giving him to us to love all these years.

We are sad today. I am surprised at how awful I feel, and I don't know what take the pain away.

But, it helps to talk on boards like this.

Mark

We didn't know each other long, but I'm glad you came into my life. You will not be forgotten. You've taught me how precious life is. . . how illness can strike at any time, and rob us of those we love. You are missed little guy.

Alethea

In tribute to my irreplaceable darling, Fiona, who left this world much too early after a lengthy illness. Time doesn't diminish the grief I feel at losing you, but I know you are at peace, little one.

Lydia D'moch

Fivel you were a great, loving pet. I miss you and love you. I hope you are in comfort and happiness now, goodbye. (For now)"

Sarah

I would like to say to Flash that I am sorry for having to put her to sleep. Her mind was still strong, but, unfortunately, her body failed her. She had been with me since I was nine years old. She was my shoulder to cry on all those years. She was with me for almost every important event in my life. I will remember all of the wonderful times we spent together. I hope that she is at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for me with my other pets, Moochie, Squirt, Rex, Stinky, Freedom, the countless hamsters I've had, and most of all, Tuffy. I hope she misses me as much as I miss her already. that way she'll never forget me as I could never, ever forget her. Flash, you were my light during so many times of darkness and you were an even brighter light during all of the good times. I'm sorry, I hope you are young and healthy again. Please play the way you used to be able to. Please watch over me and all of my family and pets. You are irreplaceable, I'm sure you know that. A part of me died with you, maybe you took that part to heaven, I can only hope...I love you!

Lisa Pugh

Flash "Mister/Mr. Mousse,"

Thank you for all the love and laughter you gave me.
You were very special to me and you will always have a special place in my heart.
I will see again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Love,

"Mom"

Thank you my bright bunny sugar kitty boy for all you have been to me and for hanging in there for me when I needed you most. I love you. Adios, Fletchito Gatito....M

We brought him home from the vet; he had no people who wanted him. It's my personal belief that he was raised near dogs, because he had a strange meow. His jaw would work up and down, making a Mrow-ow-ow noise. When we brought him home, our old cat, Silk, acted all mad and growling, but gradually the fights turned more friendly, as if more for exercise than anger at eachother. He's always been an outside cat, and always afraid of cars. I guess he just didn't dodge in time :(

John Waymouth

Floppy was a beautiful black and white female french lop, and she, along with our other wonderful rabbit friend Thumper became a member of our family back in July 1993. They made great companions and brought so much joy to our lives. Thumper, unfortunately passed away earlier this year, and now this morning we had the unfortunate task of having Floppy put to sleep. She had developed neurological problems in her front legs which made it very difficult for her to walk, and it hurt so much to see how our beautiful companion's health was slowly declining. She used to scamper all over our apartment and bring us so much joy with her playful antics. She was a wonderful pet and loving companion and we are going to miss her very much.

Brian and Chris McAlley

Forever in my heart, little Sweetie.

Mars

Bun Bun taught me so much. He taught me about unconditional love, and trust, and acceptance, He made my life better and gave me strength when I had very little of my own, I never realized how much he took care of me until he died, and I miss him to this day. I look at his picture and cry and laugh all at the same time. I know he is still with me to this day, helping me, comforting me, giving me strength still. Some of the best lessons I learned from a small gray rabbit. I miss you and love you Bun, and I know that you are taking care of all the bunnies that pass over The Rainbow Bridge. I know that you will always take care of me. God bless the joy and love that was, and is, your being.

Kristen S.

My Florie girl... Thank you for the joy that you brought to us. We think of you often and miss you always.

Cheryl

Fluff was a very special goffin cockatoo. She was the light of my life and is most missed.

Robin Richardson

Thank you so much for being my friend; I will always love and miss you.

Boris Mackovic

I wish you a Happy Birthday and a Merry Christmas.
Love and miss you.

Linda

Fluffy,
There is not a day goes by I don't think of you I know you I will miss you I find it hard I no you were not feeling good and I feel so guilty that I had to let you go. But I really think that you wont hurt anymore. And I really miss you.

Joanbo

Dear Fluffy, I really miss you. I miss the way you loved me and I know I'll see you again in Heaven soon. I read in Revelation that there shall be no pain or sadness in Heaven, but joy. I know that I will see you again Fluffy.

Sincerely,
N.R.

Fluffy was much loved and is missed so much. I miss her snuggles, and how she slept under my chin every night. But I know she is well and pain free now, and one day I will see her again when we meet at the Rainbow Bridge.
Until then Fluff, I love you and miss you -- your Mommy

Fluffy,
I hope you hear our prayers on Monday night. I hope your comfortable and looking down upon us. You died such a long time ago but I still miss you. I didn't know about the Rainbow Bridge then but I know you are there with Inky.

Love your mom

Fluffy, you were such a wonderful cat. So loving and you fit comfortably into our home from the day we adopted you over 9 years ago.

We have so many wonderful memories of you and you will always have a special place in our hearts. We miss you,

Love, Barb, Leroy and Nicholas

For Fluffy, my sweet gentle lady, and Sugar, my big tough guy. You were the best cats and best friends I could have ever hoped for. I wish you hadn't had to go, but we'll meet again someday. I'll never forget you.

Love you forever,

Dawn

A special horse who was a gentle soul. Thank-you Fonz for being a part of our lives for so long.
We know that you are at the bridge now with Dena, Aggressor, Twinkie and Jake, run my friend frolic and roll in the lush grass, know that you will always be loved and we will be together to explore trails together again.

Cinda Stillings

In all my life I never a knew a pet to be so loving, dependable, caring, and loyal. Fooey you were not just my friend, you are my best friend. I will always hold a very special place in my heart for you and although apart I know in spirit just as in life you will never leave my side. I love you Fooey!

Michael Nunez

She brought a smile to lips and joy to my heart every day of her life! I pray she is playing on Rainbow Bridge with Anabel, my recently-departed Old English Sheepdog, and I look forward to reuniting with them both and crossing the bridge one day together.

JJ

For the past 11 years Foots has been my best friend.

Mary Jane Luraschi

Forrest was just a lizard to some, but to me she was one of my green children. I don't have any children so she truely was part of my family, and as a member of my family she received all the love and devotion that I and my husband could give her. Forrest you will be greatly missed. :(

Tricia

Fortune raised our daughter Heather to learn to love dogs and respect them. When we had a litter of Akita puppies, she would mother them like they were her own. She shared the same Birthday as our daughter, and always partook in the family birthday parties. She was a wonderful member of our family. Now she is in peace. We love you Fortune Girl Francine, Randy and Heather

Francine Fodrey

Still grieving the loss, through ignorance, of the most perfect friend I could ever hope for. Please forgive me...

Kay

Foster, you were the best boy that God ever created. You were, and still are, a sweet, sweet boy even up in heaven. May God and the guardian angels watch over you. Go toward the light, and God bless you. Mommy wants to tell you that she was sorry that she didn't hear the last chirp that you made, she feels terribly about that. But, Rachie, Mommy, and Daddy want you to know that we still love you. You gave us 7 years of joy and memories that will always last forever. We hope and pray that you will come back and visit us from the afterlife. We love you, God bless you.

Rachel

Fox Packard, dashingly handsome red chow and beloved little rescue friend, of Ashley and Chris Packard, Taylor Lake Village, Texas, will be dearly missed by all of us who loved him.

My Precious little Girl, To let you go was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. You were the most darling little dog I have ever had. You will remain in our hearts forever, I pray you find our Sir Lancelot and have a wonderful peace. You will be our Special Baby Always.

Love forever, Gerri Schlotterback (Mommy)

It's almost been a year since I had to send you to the Rainbow Bridge my beautiful Fozzie and I miss you just a much today as I did then. You are still Mama's Boy and you will always be in my heart.  
Until we meet again, Foz, play and frolic without pain at the Rainbow Bridge and keep your sweet little eyes alerted for me. I love you, my precious Fozzie and think of you every day. I remember all of our precious moments together - all the traveling in the car that you did with me. You are truly my friend and I am truly yours. You were and continue to be the love of my life. Have fun, dear friend, and you and I will play again soon.  
Take good care of all those other kitties up there - that's what you do best.

Love you Babe - Mom

For Frances,

You have not left us, for you are in my heart and my soul, and I carry you with me always. Thank you for your intensity, your spirit, and your infinite love. You are missed beyond belief.

Love, Stephanie, Mark, and Suzanne

To my beloved pal, Francis, - you will be forever in my heart as I miss you terribly.

Love, Mom

I got Frank no more than a year or so before he died, but he was such a great horse for the year I shared with him. He was a great lesson horse, and he was a really, really good friend to my filly that was having trouble adjusting when she was weaned. He died after a painful struggle with colic. I miss him so much... :*(

Laura : )

Frank was a seventeen year old dachshund that had been paralyzed almost three years due to disk disease. He was so brave in coping with his disability. He loved to go to the park in his cart!  
We will always remember your courage and joy in life. Everything is so quiet and lonely without you! We will miss you forever! We hope you can now run freely with strong legs and clear eyes. You and Winnie take care of each other and wait for us!

Linda Shier and Carol Clifton

Frank was born in the back of an Ampex tape deck at KKSN-AM's transmitter in the middle of a hayfield in Troutdale, Oregon in 1986; I used to hold him in my lap while I introduced Mahler symphonies that summer until I took him home. He was a little black-and-gray striped tiger kitty with a big purr, a wise face and a gentle demeanor, a Mighty Hunter of Mice, Son of Punkinhead, Slayer of Varmints. What a great cat. I am bereft. Goodbye, Frankie, we will meet again in the Summerland.

Lynn Siprelle

Loosing Frankie was more than loosing a pet. My mother and I picked him out together. Since she has passed away, Frankie has been an extra special friend. Loosing him has also meant loosing a connection to her.

Andrea Wandersee Habbel

We are posting Frankie's name on the Rainbow Bridge list to remember our greatest friend and companion of nearly 15 years. She was a most sweet and special soul. We know she has met up with Masha, Emmy, Morgan and other friends at the Bridge, and they are all having a wonderful time there together.

Allison and Nancy

Frankie was my best friend since she found me at the Anti-Cruelty Society in Chicago. There was an instant bond formed between us. I always had the security of knowing that no matter what anyone else thought of me, Frankie loved me and I her. The void in my life is constant and will always be so without her. Frankie was the sweetest cat. I was truly blessed by having her in my life. My friends say I saved her when I adopted her, I say she saved me. Even in her passing, she takes care of me. She helped me find a new cat and to feel secure in the knowledge that having a new cat in no way cheapens what Frankie and I shared.
  I often think of Frankie, but I take comfort in the fact that she is o.k. in her new life. I will always ache for her but one day we will meet again at the Bridge.

Meriel Coleman

Momma misses you very much, you are my special Fankie boys, take care of your brothers and watch over us at the rainbow bridge. Til we meet again...

Belinda and Mike

Frankie- You are missed so much! I wish I knew what happened and why you had to die. There is so much to remember about you and so much that we went through. You are my little champion and I hope that in your life beyond you are herding all the sheep you want and having lots of fun! You enjoyed that so much and were so good at it. I miss you baby, be my guardian angel, I need you. I'll take care of your little boy Mick as I promised. Have fun with Lady, Dixie, Lucky. Good Bye pretty girl, you're a good girl as always! We love and miss you. Help us. Love-Your Family.

My dog Freckles taught me about totally unconditional love. She was my strength and my companion during a time when I felt that I had no one else to lean on.
I know that she is happier now, she faced her illness with dignity and strength. Our whole family is richer for her presence in our lives.

Dorothy Edwards

A great friend and a special dog. He suffered through the children dressing him up, playing vet, and using him to pull them on their skates. Hope God has a Dairy Queen in heaven because he loved that best.

Sandi Rezner

For Fred; my friend and companion! You were such a beautiful sprit! You were sweet and loyal beyond words, move on ol pal. Move on to a better place, I love you!

Mike Shannon

We'll miss Fred GREATLY!!!!!! :(

LeSaich family

I will love and miss Fred forever, he was my best friend. We grew up together, we shared the same birthday and many fond memories. Now that my life is really starting, his has ended. He will be gone, but certainly not forgotten.

Katie

Mr. Mugs was our kid and constant companion for 12 years. We know we will see him again and until then he will remain in our hearts with the many fond memories he gave to us. Sadly missed by Fred and Bonnie.

Freddie was my closest friend and constant companion. He was very gentle and always wanted to be close to his people. He was everything that a perfect pet could be and my soul mate. His loss leaves an enormous hollow in my life and I hope he has passed on to a place of light and happiness. I miss him so!

Jay Gerst

My beloved "Freddy", After four long years of grief, I am finally able to tell your story on the pet loss board. I am so sorry for what happened. I only wish I could have been there for you--to protect you and to keep you safe. Please watch over me, "Ralphie", and "Betsy"---we know we will all be together again one day. We will run through the fields and chase butterflies then, I promise. I love you, sweet girl.

Melissa

Fred wasn't ready to go. He had such a positive attitude. Kidney failure robbed him of the use of his legs. He was my baby. My best friend. My bud.

Carol

With fond memories of my best friend. I miss you.

Bob

To my dog Freeway,

I loved you so much, and now I now after two months later I am still lost without you.

Your pal forever

Monique Schneider

To the best boy ever. It has been almost a year since you left us and we miss you still. May you always have a lake to swim in and birds to chase. May you and your sister, Emily, be together always and be waiting for us. We love you both.

Debra Ford

Our Special Freeway,
When I found you many years ago, I hoped no one would ever claim you. I got my wish and you were my little angel from God. Thanks for helping me through some really rough times and for all the wonderful memories. We enjoyed our walks and all the compliments from people telling us how beautiful you were.
You will remain in our hearts forever.

Jennie, Danny and Jane

About 7 years ago we took in a stray dog that we found on the freeway. So we gave him that name. Today got out on that same freeway where he died. He was a friendly dog, to all he came across. He will surely be missed. I also will mention that Freeway was hit with his canine friend Kenya who also died. He was a stray that we also came to love.

Family at Circle Inn

Fresca was so beautiful in her heart and soul. She loved everyone. She loved going to Puppy School. She loved all her friends at School and loved being in a show ring. She will be dearly missed. We will never forget her.

Tammy and Tim Ouellette

Fresno our true friend watch over us always like you did before, we love and miss you dearly !

Ridge and Stella Brown

To a wonderful cat named Fribbles, though your life was very short you were such a wonderful cat and I will never forget you.

Kathleen Murray

Through the mountains and valleys of 17 years, Friday Cat was always there, my companion, mentor, conscience, and loving non-judgmental friend. Friday was a legend in the small FL town where we owned a radio station. He would sit on the console when I was on-the-air, was an attendee at almost every interview, and perched on an old upright piano for the Sunday Morning Gospel Sing. When he was lost for 5 days, the whole town turned out to look for him. Everyone knew we had a special bond and they grieve as well. Richard, Aunt Jenny, and I miss you, my friend.

Judie Bright

I know you are at the bridge with Gillie romping in the grass and chasing butterflies with her. Even though you were an indoor cat, I know you are safe at the bridge.

Ann

Our buddy!

Tom and Sally Masengarb

You will always be remembered. Your time came too soon but I'll see you someday at the Rainbow Bridge. Say hi to my buddy Fluffy

someone who loved you

I miss you Fries...

Annie

Frisbie was just a stray, that rode in the engine compartment of a truck from Pa. to NY when just a kitten and we adopted her when no one else wanted her. She was a wonderful friend, companion, and alarm clock. She knew our work schedule and would wake us in the morning. She also loved to go for walks with us and it wasn't uncommon to see her walking with us around the neighborhood. All the neighbors got a laugh watching us with our "guard" cat. She is still very much missed although we have had other cats since. She was "one of a kind" and will always be in our memories and hearts. Wait for us Frisbie-we will all be together one day as a happy family again.

Dave and Char

For all the unconditional love, for all the smiles and laughter, and for all the times you managed to turn my frown into a smile...I cannot thank you enough or tell you what you meant to me. I am truly losing my best friend and I long for the day I can see that face I miss so much again. Goodbye my friend...Until we meet again.

Alicia Yates

You were the one that made me love animals so much, Frisky I have never stopped missing you

Janie

Fritter thought he was a dog at first. Then he started to become a cute little chinchilla.
Fritter was not with he very long, I love him with a my heart.

Angie Hesler

You were loved, very much. It was the first time I saw my husband cry when he had picked your limp body up. He loved you so much. You will never be forgotten...ever. Jesse & Jamie miss you too. I still wonder if there was something we could have done. I am so glad that morning I told you it was OK to come up on the couch and snuggle with me before everybody else got up. It was our special time. I hope you are running and jumping without pain. Fritz, you left us too young and too early. We love you!

Charmaine & Bill Chastain

Fritz,
We know that you are no longer in pain. We hope you are swimming and playing ball. Say "HI" to Jenner for us.

Fritz is a rescued kuvasz that lived a short life after being rescued. He had alot of medical problems due to abuse. But for the two months he was with us he lived the life of a king. For the first time in his life he had a christmas. I made up for all the forgotten christmas's. He was a very loving dog and will always hold a special place in my heart. I know he is where he will nolonger feel pain

Fritz's Best Friends, Dale and Linda Andrews

This is a tribute to a special doggie who thought I was his real "Mom" and I guess I am. He was always the clown of the family and had more than enough love to go around. He loved to tease and be teased. He especially loved to attack the vacuum cleaner. He didn't let his infirmity (missing one leg) stop him from gallumphing all over the house. I took the best care I could for him for 19 years and that was a blessing from God to allow us to be together for so long a time. I held him and petted him while they put him to sleep, due to end stage kidney failure. They broke the mold when they made Fritzie.

Frosty, we loved you so! How can we go on without you?

Wally and Irene Moon

Dearest Frosty,  
There are no words to describe what you've meant to us all these years and the loss we feel now. Where did thirteen years go?? It seems like just yesterday that we adopted you from the local animal shelter, a two year old dog, eyes filled with love and hope. The day we brought you home, you jumped into our car without hesitation, like you'd done it a thousand times before. From that day on, you captured our hearts and brought such joy and happiness to our lives.  
Mommy and Daddy had only been married three months when you came into our lives, so you've always been a part of "us". How do we go on without you?? "Losing you" was "losing a part of ourselves" that can never be replaced. You were such a wonderful dog, a true friend and loyal companion.  
It broke our hearts when you became so ill with kidney failure. You were so brave at the "doggy hospital". We'd never been separated before and missed you terribly. You seemed to be getting better and we looked forward to bringing you home. We were prepared to do whatever we had to for your recovery, even if it meant bringing you in for a check-up every week. We would do anything in the world for you!!  
On the day you were supposed to come home, I remember taking a nap, thinking about how wonderful it was gonna be to have you home again, and waiting for Daddy to get home from work so we could go pick you up. The phone rang...it was Dr. Hudson...the words still haunt me...liver cancer. I felt like my heart had just been ripped out. I remember asking Dr. Hudson if you were in pain and he replied, "I think he is...he can't get comfortable and it seems like he's trying to get away from himself". The rest is really a blur to me. I was choking on my own tears and couldn't breathe. Somehow I managed to call Daddy and he rushed right home. Our lives were gonna be changed forever.  
So here you are, fifteen years old, already showing signs of advancing age. Your heart murmur and arthritis had been under control for the last few years with medication, but now your kidneys were failing and Dr. Hudson found liver cancer. The thought of losing you was causing unbearable pain. We didn't want to lose you but we would never allow you to suffer. You'd given us thirteen wonderful years of "unconditional love and devotion". We needed to do what was best for you. With Dr. Hudson to guide us, we made the most difficult and painful decision of our lives. It was time to "let you go with dignity".  
Dr. Hudson said you'd been holding on for us. So we brought you home "one last time". We are so grateful for the wonderful care Dr. Hudson gave you which allowed us to spend a little more time together. It's hard to believe how much we were able to do during those last thirty hours together...alot of picture taking and capturing you on video tape...playing in the backyard...going for a ride in the car...spending time at your favorite place "the beach"...preparing special food for you "small amounts at a time" so you wouldn't get sick...taking frequent naps together...getting your favorite treat "carvel ice cream"...Uncle Brian calling from Florida to see how you were doing. Do you remember all the visitors you had?? Uncle Tom, Uncle Scott, Grandma and Grandpa....all came by to see you.  
Mommy and Daddy never left your side for a single second. We will never forget those final hours spent together. It was a precious gift that we will cherish forever. We can see it in your eyes now that "it's time to let you go". We pray the ride over to the "doggy doctor" will never end. Our world was about to crumble. How do you say "goodbye" to your best friend??  
We couldn't believe that you found your favorite "chew treat" on Dr. Hudson's lawn. Daddy said, "Peanut and Muffin must have sent it to you from Rainbow Bridge". You looked so content in the backseat of the car as you chewed on this treat. We could see that the tranquilizer Dr. Hudson gave you was beginning to work...your chewing was becoming much slower. So Daddy carried you into Dr. Hudson's office for the last time.  
Everything happened so fast. Dr. Hudson came in and gave you the final needle (which you didn't feel because you still had the IV catheter in from your hospital stay that week). We thank God for giving us the strength and courage to "let you go". We held you as you took your last breath. You looked so peaceful as you began your journey to "Rainbow Bridge". When Mommy and Daddy got home, we lit candles for you to help guide your way. Peanut and Muffin were awaiting your arrival and must have been so happy to see you.  
We pray you are at peace now. It's so hard to believe that you're really gone. This will be Mommy and Daddy's first Christmas without you. We have your ashes in a beautiful oak box with your picture. They are right next to the oak box that contains Peanut's ashes. We love you and miss you so very much. Misty, Skippy, and Weezer are so lost and lonely without you. Our lives will never be the same. You took a piece of our hearts with you and the hole that remains will never be filled by another. We were truely blessed to have shared life with you for thirteen precious years. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. Remember, we will be together again one day.
 
Love,  
Mommy, Daddy, Misty, Skippy, and Weezer

We layed him to rest for you today beside our dog tonight, we love you and offer you support. M & B

Frosty was the most wonderful cat anyone could ever have. He brought joy to everyone he came in contact with. I had him for eight years and I can't imagine what's it's going to be like without him here.

Frosty Bob was a stray who was apparently dropped off at my home in April of 1997. He was so afraid of everything, it was obvious he had had a hard time. But thru out the time he was with me he knew what love was all about. I shall miss his purr and the way he always greeted me in the morning. I wish our time together had been longer but I feel privileged to have know him at all! I know he is there at Rainbow Bridge waiting for me with all my other cats and someday we will all be together again! I love you Frosty Bob and miss you!

Frou-Frou, you grew up with me and I will never forget what a great dog and friend you were to me.

"My Promise"

If you wait for me then I will come for you. Although you've traveled far, I will always hold a place for you in my heart. If you think of me, if you miss me once in awhile, then I'll return to you. I'll return and fill that space in your heart.  
Remembering your face, your fur, your warm and loving purr.  
If you dream of me, like I dream of you, in a place that's warm and dark. In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart. I'll find my way back to you. I've missed you. I've wished to see your smile, hear your meow. To be wherever you are.  
Remembering your face, your fur, your warm and loving purr.  
When it's time for my journey to end, it would feel so good to hold you in my arms again. If you can make me a promise. If you can wait for me. To be together again. I vow to come for you.  
Remembering your face, your fur, your warm and loving purr.  
I will always hold a place for you in my heart.  
I love you.  
Mommy

Furious,  
You cannot know how much your Mom and Dad miss you. There is a hole in our hearts where you belong. Yesterday was a day where I felt the hardest pain I don't want to feel again. Watching my beautiful baby slip away from me and go on to a better place where you won't be poked and prodded anymore. I hope you're happier there my Boo. I'd love for you to still be here with me and your dad and brothers and sister. Rubbing my legs, cuddling with me on the couch or in bed. Will this pain I feel for you ever end? I hope you understand why we chose what we did for you Boo...I don't know if I'd make the same choice again. I miss everything about you so much. I take comfort that you're happier and healthier where you are now. Please believe me when I say, I miss you with all my heart and wish you were with us now. I know that's selfish...but to have one more cuddle, one more purr, one more "head-butt", I MISS YOU BOO!  
Love you always,  
Your Mom and Dad

Fuzz, we hope you come home someday. If you are still out there, looking for a good home, hear our cry, for you are very much missed at our household. If something should happen, and you would not make it back home, may God guide your way and may God be with you. If you cross Rainbow Bridge, wait on me there: for I will be ecstatic the day I look over that great Bridge in the Promised Land and see an orange, white and grey Fuzzy sweetheart. I will embrace you in my arms and never let go: for I will have found my stray baby, Fuzz. We all love and miss you.

Cathy and family
