Zoey by A.W.

Zoey was a very fun loving cat who in God’s will had to be laid to rest May 4th 2002. Zoey loved to play with her fake mice-she’d eat ALL of the fur off of them and then chase them around the house. She’d always get them stuck underneath something-mostly the gumball machine! Then whenever anyone walked by the gumball machine she’d quick rub up against it and meow until you got it out for her.

She’d also get them stuck in the couch cushions-and occasionally ate them! When she’d find a REAL mouse she’d think that when she set it down it would just stay there but boy was she wrong! She also loved to eat her food scooping it out one kernel at a time. Zoey would also paw on the door at night if it was closed and she wanted to get in.

She’d also barg into the bathroom and rub her nose on the shower curtain. Although Zoey was 3 she thought she was still a baby and needed to nurse because she always “nursed” off of this one “shagged” rug in our house. She would sit and “nurse” off of it while purring very loud and moving her feet. As you can see-Zoey was a very active spunky sassy little thing. She will be deeply missed.

Lady Girl by Jenny

In loving memory
of my Lady “Girl”

Do not stand at my grave and weep for am not there. I don’t sleep. For I am a thousand winds that blow and diamond glints
upon the snow.

I am the sun on ripened grain the soft and gentle autumn rain. I am the swift uplifling- rush of quiet birds in circling flight.

The timeless star’s that shine at night. So do not stand at my grave and cry. FOR I’M NOT THERE – I did not die mommy I’m in your mind heart and soul………….

Love always

Your mommy {Jenny Geer}

 

Dillon by Joni

Dillon was quite the cat. We found him in the Dillons store parking lot. We were putting our groceries in the trunk and he hoped in with them. So we took him out and put him back on the ground and he just jumped right back in. So Dillon came home with us.

He was a very good cat nothing made him mad he just layed around and took everything we dished out. Unfortunally he got A cist under his neck and ran away and died. Dillon is still in my heart and will be for
the rest of my life.

I Love You Dillon!!

Scooter

I miss you more than I ever thought I could. I keep looking for you at the end of my bed where you slept for the past 16 years keeping my feet warm(sometimes it stil feels like you are there). Hope you are keeping your son “Gizmo” in line up there and are watching over us here.

I am so sorry that we had to take you away from us but we felt your quality of life was pretty much gone and needed to let you go so you could be at peace and not in pain.

I (we) love you Scooter and miss you very much will always remember you and Gizmo forever in my (our) thoughts.

All of our Love

Skipper by Lorie & Family

It has been almost 2 years since Skipper’s passing. He is still very much missed. He was a very special dog with quite the story. We had moved to a new house and were there for one week when Skipper decided to run off. We thought he was going to look for our old house about 8 miles away. We couldn’t catch him after searching and searching. We called the humane league the vets and the police letting them know that he was missing in case they would pick him up. We even offered a reward for him. We looked all over for him for weeks but no luck.

He had been gone for about 4 weeks when we got a call from our vet who said she had spotted a sheltie fitting Skipper’s description. He was wearing a collar and it had a blue tag on it. The tag that was on skipper’s collar was silver the best that we could remember. This woman lived about 15 miles away on the other side of the Susquehanna River from where we had lived. We went and met with her. She said that he was too scared and she couldn’t catch him. We searched the area over but again no luck. Skipper had now been gone for 7 weeks and we pretty much gave up on him possibly being alive. What happened next proved us to never doubt again.

On the morning of the 25th of October (7 weeks of being gone) I went down stairs to get my son a glass of milk. I was headed up the steps and glanced out on the back porch. I could not believe my eyes!! I even smacked my face for fear that I was dreaming. Skipper was asleep on the welcome mat!! He had come home to a house that he had only known for ONE week!!! I couldn’t believe it so I ran upstairs to my husband and said you are not going to believe what is on the back porch. He said “what?” I said it is Skipper!! He said “NO WAY!!” We both ran down the steps and flew open the door and scared him half to death. He acted like he was gonna run so we quikly calmed our voices until we got him in the house. He had his collar on and guess what….the tag that was left on was a blue rabies tag.

He HAD been spotted by that lady several weeks earlier. Skipper had wondered 15 miles away and returned to our new house after being away for 7 weeks. His story made the local newspaper and Dog Fancy Magazine. He was a celebrity!!! Skipper lived for several years and became deaf and had really bad arthritis. He eventually could not get comfortable. He would lay down and jump back up constantly. He would go outside and fall nonstop. He had cuts all over him from his inability to get around. We couldn’t stand to see him suffer yet we could not make the ultimate decision to have him put to sleep.

We conferenced with our vet for hours many times trying to make a decision. We had scheduled appointments to have him put to sleep 4 times and always cancelled until the last one. He had gotten so bad that we all decided that he would be better off in a better place…no longer in pain. We took him to the vets and asked if we could put him to sleep outside in the back of the office under the trees. The vet met us outside. My daughter had been trying
to walk Skipper out back.

There was a slight bank with a stream back there. Yes Skipper fell and rolled down the bank and into the stream before being put to sleep. The assistant jumped in after him and pulled him out. The poor dog was muddy and wet. The vet said after that there was no question in his mind that it WAS time to put him to sleep. We said our goodbyes to Skipper and cradled him as he drifted off to sleep!! It was very hard the kids were crying saying “I love You Skipper” as he fell asleep.

We all were a mess…he had been so special!! We think that Skipper had to give us something to look back on and laugh about for his last horrah. His legacy will always live on in our hearts!! Run free Skipper….as free as the wind!! We will meet again at the bridge…

We love you!!!

Jake by Your Family

My beautiful brave little buddy.

My heart shattered into a million pieces the day that I had to let you go. I miss you so very much. It has been three years and I still love you as much as I ever did.

I suppose that I always will.

Love

Your family

 

Candy by Bob

I will miss not seeing you wagging your tail when I come home from a bad day at work. You were always happy and anxious to see us even when in great pain. You always gave us all the love you could possibly give. I see you jumping in the water with the boys. I see you chewing up the rug. I see you laying on the lawn enjoying the outdoors you loved so much. I feel your pain. I feel your love.

Only hours ago you were laying on the floor beside me in pain but still trying to make me happy. You are now gone from me in body but Candy you will be with me always in my heart and mind. You no longer are suffering but playing in the water again and now you have peace and our love for always. Thank-you for your unconditional love.

Bob

 

Feya by Edgar

Feya

You have suffered for 4 years after the veterinarian found a problem in you. The veterinarian wanted to anaesthetize you but I have not agreed. Instead I cared for you every hour until that tragic day when I found you dead. I couldn’t stop crying. It’s terrible to lose such a wonderful friend especially after I have lost another wonderful parrot.

I hope you won’t suffer anymore and finally you will find a peaceful place. There will always be an empty place in my heart and I will miss you forever.
The family misses you too.

Rest in peace my dear friend.

Miss Princess Greer by Jenny

Princess

I will miss you Princess It’s so hard to say good bye. If anyone have ever seen the play “Peterpan” you will remember how the pirate chief was always making his dying speech because he was afaid that possibly when the time to get it off his chest. It is much like the same with me and so although I am not this moment dying I shall be doing so one of these days and I want to send you a parting word of good-bye
my love.

Remember it is the last you will ever hear from me so think it over. we had a happy life together and I’m sure each one of us who ever lost a pet will once love again!

I believe god put us in this jolly world to be happy and to enjoy what time we have with our pets happiness doesn’t come from being rich nor merely from being successful in your career not by self-indulgences…. one step towards happiness is to love your pet for all it’s worth. They will show you how beautiful and wonderful they are …

God put our pets on this earth to enjoy them to look on the bright side of things instead of being alone. But the real love I’ve found was giving out love to all living things. Try and leave this would a little better than when you found it and when it comes your turn to die you can die happy in feeling that at any rate you have not wasted your time but you have done your best to love your pet!!!

Nikki by Diane

Nikki was the favorite pet for many children and adults in the family. She first lived with whom I refer to as “her mother” then she was given to me when “her mother” could not take care of her any longer due to back problems. She was my best friend and I had long conversations with her where she listened intently.

This picture was taken last Christmas when she delighted the old and young alike with her reindeer ears. Old age overtook her ability to run and play but she tried many times. She was my best friend and she will be missed terribly. Her ashes will be spread at her favorite place to swim in the summer and then I can get on without my best friend.

“May you rest in peace
my little puppy.
We shall meet again.”
