I want to pay tribute to my baby boy trooper for being the best dog and most of all my best friend. I didn’t realize how much he meant to me or even how much I loved him till the day I said good-bye. In the end we both realized we needed each other and he kept his love strong but I let mine stray a bit and when I said good-bye it hit me that I will never see or feel him ever again and that I could have gave him more than what I did and I am eternally in sorrow that he is gone and that I hope to God that he knows that I am truly unbelievable sorry for not being the best friend that he showed to me.

I’m sorry my baby boy.

My dearest Tuff

You were only with me for a short time but in that time you became a son to me. Whenever I was depressed you would always come up and purr in my ear to lift my spirits up. You always knew how to make me smile even when I was mad. I just want you to know that I did all I could to help you get better. I love you so very much and that I think of you always.

Scooter and Stormy will miss you alot. And your mom well she loves you just as much as I do. I tell her every day that your in heaven and that she will see you again. I don’t know if you remember but she kissed you before you were buried. She sends her with you. And she wanted you to know that she will always love you. Even she tried to help you get better we all did. I love you Tuff stay sweet and remember I will see you again some day. Just keep purring and
I will find you again.

Your Mom

MY SWEET OLD OLIVIA I LOVE YOU. I’M SO SORRY I HAD YOU FOR SUCH A SHORT TIME BUT EVERY DAY WAS BEAUTIFUL HAVING YOU. IT WAS SO SAD WHEN I NEED TO SEE YOU DIE. IT WAS SO HARD TO LET YOU GO. I STILL GO TO SEE YOU IN YOUR GRAVE IN THE BACKYARD. I MISS YOU SO MUCH. I REMEMBER THE FUN WE HAD TOGETHER. I WISH YOU COME HOME. NOW GO TO HEAVEN. I KNOW SOMEDAY I WILL MEET YOU AGAIN OLIVIA YOU STOOD WITH US A VERY SHORT TIME. I MISS YOU TERRIBLE IF YOU WANT TO COME HOME JUST COME BACK. BUT REMEMBER THAT ON EVERY CLOUD THERE’S ALWAYS AN ANGEL WAITING FOR YOU.

YOUR MOMMIE BRITTANY
{I’M 8 YEARS OLD}

My sweet girl I miss you so much. I remember the day I met you and fell in love with you. My mom said you were going to be an outside dog. Hmmm that was before you melted her heart too. I have few memories that you are not in. We were together for 18 years! We went everywhere together. You welcomed my husband in to our lives and just adored him. When I brought each of my children home there you were to come see what I had brought home. You were always so patient with the children. You always tried to please me. You were so smart and loving.

The day I came home and found you in the shape you were and you looked into my eyes I really feel you were telling me you were tired and ready to go. That was the hardest thing I have had to do. Holding you there I know you could feel my heart pounding and I was unable to control the tears. I truly hope you know that I felt I had to put you to sleep so you were no longer in pain. I felt I owed that to you after all you have given me. It is so hard the guilt and so many people just don’t understand the pain that I feel. You may have left this world but you will forever remain in my heart.

I love and miss you terribly but I know someday when it is my time to cross over we will see each other again. Until then please know that if I could have helped you in anyway I would have.

On the day after we had to let you go Nathan and I were sitting on the back porch and a beautiful butterfly landed between us. It didn’t move. Nathan went towards it and said mom I know that must be Shadow. We have seen that butterfly for two days now just sitting there. Today it was gone. I really feel God let you come back to comfort us knowing you you begged him to let you just to help us feel better.

Until my time has come
I miss you…..

Queen BUFFY my little “noons” your nickname how sweet you were to me and everyone with such openness towards me yet very shy and fear sometimes of your own shadow and then once you got to see someone you loved them and always wanted to be on their lap even on hot summer days.

My little Noons how much I have thought of you I want you to know that Freckles missed you so much when you left her side. She never was the same from then on. She grew up more with you as she got older since Poco had died when she was still young pup of only 2 years of age. And you basically took over and was always with her.

I took excellent care of you as so with Poco and Freckles. I look at the photographs when you all are together just the three of you. I always remember your underbite and how your cute lip would show with your smile. And how you always would tilt your head to one side for everything. How you loved the house when I had it built you would run everywhere with Freckles. I miss you and carry you with me in the recondite of my heart and soul you always will remain inside me.

You were the Queen that is for sure and you never ever would be in a bad mood. You only became ill was on your 6th birthday; you came down with cancer and that was a tragedy. You did not last long and the person doing the treatments for you did not have much experience but I did not know this until at the end when I knew the color of the chemo was different and he said to me that he wanted a stronger dosage because you were doing so good to make sure nothing would come back or enlarge your lympnodes. I am so sorry Buffy you had suffered then because then you bled almost to death from overdose of Chemotherapy and unfortunately the doctor from Tucson could not treat you because she was pregnant.

And at that time there were not many people in the valley that did chemo. But according to the ER the doctor there said you were given too much chemo and that is what happened but I stayed by your side you had two blood transfusions within one month and then you did not get any better you platelets just never could be the same. I was so angry and upset for him doing that to you at the vet clinic and the ER people treated you so good. I laid by your side the whole entire time at home. I was with you when the time came to put you down you were in my arms and I was kissing you when you died. I love you Buffy and for a long period of time I played your favorite CD’s the songs you always seemed to like when I played them here at home.

Your playful Freckles has joined you now three weeks ago on June 23rd/02 and now you all are together even with Poco. I truly miss you and love you forever and ever. Sometimes Buffy there is so much in life we cannot understand or find reason for. Um sometimes Buffy we just have to go on faith that everything will be all right. It is so quiet here but I have Moka Java which you never got to meet. I got her later within the summer of 1996 two years after your departure.

She misses Freckles a lot as I do too. It is hard for me each day that goes by; I figured each day would get a little easier but it hasn’t Buffy. It was that way with you too and I miss you so very much. My little Queen “Noons” you are so precious your Golden colors. As I face the challenges that each day brings may you know that I am thinking of you and of Poco and Freckles.

I will never forget how you used to love to sneak into the pool without making any noise; you would step into the steps slowly and then look up at me like you had no clue
how you got there.

With you in thought
with you in spirit
I wish you comfort
my little Buffy and rest.
Love your mommy

I am so sorry I didn’t get to tell you bye since I was out of town when you left this world. I hope with all my heart you felt the love of me & our family. I loved you so much it hurt. I am so sad at your not being with me anymore. I loved you & hope you felt loved. I truly hope that you did not suffer…that would kill me.

I miss you & will never ever forget your sweet gentle nature. You were the best dog in all the world Jazzie & I will miss you terribly.

I MISS YOU LOTS MY ANGEL
AND I LOVE YOU LOTS.
WE WILL ALL MISS YOU
OUR BELOVED.
WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU.

It was the early morning of July 2 2002 when I had to put my “baby boy” to sleep. Rambo was a beautiful Lhasa Apso and he would have turned 16 in three months. Our vet said he had a brain tumor that probably started to bleed. He was doing well for such a long period of time. He had a stroke/seizure on May 9th and then improved so we were able to bring him back home. In July he collapsed and that dreaded decision had to be made.

There is not one day that goes by where I don’t think of Rambo or how much I love him. I knew that he wouldn’t be around forever but this is harder to deal with than I ever imagined. I find myself thinking throughout the day of silly things he would do and I start to cry. I will always have his memories and one day when it’s my time I will see him again.

I rest better at night knowing what a wonderful life he had and I know that no one else could have offered him anything more. I nursed him with medication until the end and did everything possible to keep him here with me as long as I could.

Rambo mommy misses you and loves you more and more as each day goes by. That love won’t ever diminish and one day we will see each other again. I hope you are playing with all of the other animals up there and don’t forget you will always be in my heart.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
I MISS YOU!

MOMMY SUSAN

My sweet Freckles

We stood by each other side for the years that have passed us by. I love you and I miss you. I close my eyes and I see you. I breathe you. I open my eyes and there you are surrounding me yet not knowing why it had to be this way. Your life was taken so quickly yet you suffered tremendously by neglect of a doctor and then yet another doctor the day of you leaving me. No one knew you were leaving except I did.

I had said you were not making it yet no one believed me and I figured you would pull through perhaps after the medication but that medicine for arthritis did you in within three days and you should have never been on the medicine hence you were diagnosed with the wrong illness. I am so sorry my precious. I promise you that I will do everything in my power for this not to happen to another sweet dog or cat.

I love you honey and you are my hero and I miss you so very much. My tears and words are not even enough to say how much you mean to me. I am unable to describe this feeling upon ink and paper or via the internet. Just know that I am there with you. I take you wherever I go.
I see you far and near.

I love you Freckles.
I love you so…

Oh Belle

You came into my life and all was right with the world and I said to you daily “what am I going to do without you?”. Unfortunately I had to find out too soon. It’s been a little over a year and you are in my thoughts every day. You were my life and will always have that piece of my heart that no other pet can fill. You were there for me and I was brave enough to be there when you needed me. I wasn’t going to let you suffer one more day. Lymphoma cancer took you away otherwise nothing else would have separated us until you had a long loved life.

I just loved your welcome dance and wagging tail to come home to every night. Our little hide and seek games with cheese and that beautiful smile on your face. Please be waiting for me so I can hug you once again. Your Daddy and I miss you very much.

“Farewell Master
yet not farewell
Where I go ye too shall dwell.
I am gone before your face.
A moment’s time
a little space
When ye come where
I have stepped
Ye will wonder why ye wept.”

After Death by Edwin Arnold

You’ll always be part of the family. I wish you could meet Sadie and Rosa they are just as beautiful as you but I still have a big hole in my heart that only you filled.

I love you and
miss you terribly.

Till we meet again

Mommy

We will love you and
miss you forever.
You were the best cat.
Rest in peace.

Natasha

To our boy who always loved us.

The kids miss those days of you waiting for them to come home while sitting on the front steps. And daddy misses all those evenings of running fun in the woods and creek! I miss our walks and jogs in the morning…and all those hours spent doing our daily chores together. You were my buddy
and I was yours.

You were a blessing
in our lives
and you will forever be missed!

Joan

Dear Tinkerbelle —

You were with me since I was 8 years old. You knew my joys my sorrows my secrets. You were my best friend and I will miss you dearly. We had a good life together; even when I had to leave home you were always in my heart and always will be. Please know I love you and you are forever missed. At least you are not alone. Now you can play with your big sister Chi Chi and your brothers Snoopy and Shyloh
and baby Boo Boo.

Until we meet again.

WOLFIE (Wolfgang)
September 30 1984 {approx.}
through July 9 2002

Wolfie was found on November 11 1984 in the backyard of a home on Chestnut Street. We were on our way back home after seeing Amadeus at the local theater when I heard kittens crying. There was some discussion about whether it was really a cockatoo in the house but I know a kitten when I hear one. But how was I going to get over the fence that separated the yard from the sidewalk? Well there were garbage cans in the alley and I could turn them over to stand on them.

My friend never tires of telling the story of my climbing over the fence wearing high heeled boots and a cape. I found a little white kitten while she warned me that someone was sure to come out of the house and shoot me. When I found the gate I brought it out for her to hold while I went back to find another. And I did find WolfieÆs sister Stanzie (Constanza) a feisty little calico. Two kittens approximately 6 weeks old “out in the Chicago soon- to- be-winter” crying for a mother that wasnÆt there now and soon would not be able to protect them from the cold even if she were still alive. So they came home with me and I gave away the calico within a day or so.

The little white cat caught my fancy and he also caught the fancy of my older cat Harry. Being white he was very dirty and although I donÆt often give cats a bath I tried to clean him up. But I couldnÆt get his tail clean. It was only after a week or so that WolfieÆs Siamese markings started to be more noticeable. His tail was a reddish color and I saw pictures of cats called red tabby Siamese that looked just like him. How he came about with a calico sister we will never know.

Harry raised Wolfie and they were inseparable until Harry died in March 1992. Since then Wolfie never loved another cat although Jake was certainly getting to him. The last weekend he was alive he and Jake spent a lot of time together washing each otherÆs ears and sleeping side by side. I hope he was some comfort to him during these last two months. Wolfie was always the quiet cat-never putting himself forward too much. He was loving but he didnÆt push. You were in his territory though if you sat on the floor and should you decide to read the newspaper down there he would be on the middle of it in a twinkling. Then you could try to read around him or give him the attention he wanted. And if you planned on doing floor exercises you could count on him sitting on your chest while you did them.

Wolfie lived to a good age-almost 90 years in human years. He had become blind and arthritic and his plush sheepskin bed was his home for his last year. He sank into the cushy bed and blended right into the sheepskin color. Being blind he judged everything in the apartment from that bed. (God forgive me if I put something in his path.) He knew how to walk glancing off walls to get to food the litter box and the couch. And he would still occasionally come over to the couch and paw to be lifted up. He never complained. He was wary of sharing space with his roommate Dawson because Dawson would sometimes nip at him. But Jake was much more accommodating and he was getting used to snuggling up with another cat again like he did with Harry.

So Wolfie has gone to the Rainbow Bridge and I know heÆs playing with Harry again. And best of all heÆs not blind or arthritic anymore. You are missed and my apartment seems empty without your presence.

Hey my name is Emily Horton and my beloved baby just left to die a couple weeks ago and I’ve had him since I was 5 and now I’m 14. I really got used to his company because he was always around and he was my baby. He would follow me every where. Even when I first moved here he would walk me to the bus stop and wait till I left than every day he would meet me when I got off than he would follow me home. Where ever I went in every room in my house there he was at my side. He even slept on my bed with me till 11:00 in the afternoon.

Well a ferrel cat that lives in my neigborhood bit him under his right ear and he got really sick soon his callis got really infected and he had to go have open surgery and after that he kinda kept to himself. He didn’t sleep with me or he didn’t follow me he just came inside to eat. Than went back outside and one day it was raining and I went outside to look for him but he never came in and I never saw him again after that. We did everything put an ad in the monthly newsletter that goes to everyone in our neigborhood.

We put flyers up but the only response we ever got was when a man called and said that he found the body of a orange cat. He said he gathered the remains of him (the fur) and he put it in a bag. Me and my mom went to get it and right when I saw it I knew that it was him. And ever since I haven’t gotten any sleep because I’ve been mourning and I know this sounds really average but It’s not to me; he was my life and I loved him
with all my heart.

I put my favorite pictures of him and his collar and I put it in a small box and buried it in the back yard because he loved the backyard. I always knew where to find him there. I know that his soul is still following everywhere I go but it’s still hard and now a week after this event my mom is forcing cats from meow on me because she thinks that it will make me feel better but it doesn’t especially because the one that was staying with us just passed away. And once again my heart was broken and now the other one is about to go and now my mom wants to get a new kitten that looks like Hank and she named it Hank Jr.

That to me is just crossing the line but I’ll deal with it because I want to make her happy. But I just want my baby to come home and I want to forget everything because I miss him alot!!!!

Emily

Barney

Your Mama & Papa and your Auntie Rita will love you forever. Your shy and gentle spirit cannot ever be forgotten. I saw you an hour after you were born and was with you when you left this world. Fifteen years together was a long time but of course it’s never enough. I’ve never known another kittie who was so totally devoted to his mama.

There will never be
another like you.

We miss you sweet angel.

Sandra

Dear Little Bubba

Mama and Papa miss you so much your Papa is taking your loss especially hard as he had such a soft spot for you. Our Bubba came to us as a stray and was in very bad shape but we took him in and got his health back although he was always very frail from the hard life he had before he met us.He was so very homely we knew we’d never find him a home based on his looks so we kept him and we were sure glad we did. He brought so much love into our lives.

Bubba was just so happy to be with people who loved him and was content to spend most of his days in his cat bed with his food nearby. His buddy Barnie (our other Kitty passed away on May 23rd so we think Bubba went to be with him at the Rainbow Bridge. We hope you have a nice bed to share with each other
until we come to get you.

Sandra
