“My Little PoPo”
I miss you so much.
I’m sorry for the way
you had to leave me.
I’m sorry I wasn’t able
to stop the truck in time.

If thoughts could build a staircase
and memories a lane
I’d walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again.

Serina by Your Loving Family

My Cat Serina…

“Here Kitty Kitty…” Those were the words I called you by before you crossed the Rainbow Bridge when it was time to eat. Though I miss you so I will cherish our memories forever and a day.

You were the best cat anyone could ever have. You had an instinct which told you if anyonewas feeling down and if someone was you would come to cheer them up. All the days you had spent here on earth were the best days of my life. We didn’t have enough years to be happy together. May you be happy now at the Rainbow Bridge with any of your departed friends.

Though I still grieve for my loss I will always remember you no matter how much it makes me sad. Oh how I remember the day we found you stuck in our fence while our dog Shelby was barking at you. We took you in and were lucky enough to have the privelege to keep you.

Awwww you were so cute and tiny. That’s when I knew you were meant to be a part of our family. Until we meet again Serina;
“Goodbye” is not forever!

My darling Serena was born in 2000. After finding her in our backyard we found her simply irresistable so we kept her. She had two litters adding up to a total of 13 kittens. We kept two: Butters and Tony. We still have Butters and we are hoping that Tony has found a new loving home. She was always very playful and in her youth she loved to cuddle and would sometimes lick someone’s nose neck or arm.

Serena’s life on Earth
was short
but the life of her memories
will last forever!

I miss you so much.
I’m so sorry you were so sick.
I’m so sorry
I couldn’t make you well.
Thank you for telling me when
it was time for you to leave me.
God I can’t wait to see you again.

If thoughts could build a staircase
and memories a lane
I’d walk right up to heaven

Bootsie by Karen

Bootsie
Birthdate: May 1986
Deathdate: April 11 2002

I found Bootsie in June of 1986 when I was at a sorority regional convention held at Depauw University in Greencastle IN. She was a kitten that had somehow strayed. We all fed her while we were there. The cat I had (Rambo) had gotten hit by a car a few days before so I decided it was a sign – Bootsie came for me….
so I brought her home.

Bootsie has been through so much with me and I’ve been through as much with her. I found out she had cancer in January. She had major surgery to remove the cancer in her jaw but it came back pretty quickly…. she wasn’t able to eat or drink anything at the end and it was very very frustrating for her. We (Bootsie and me) decided that it was time for her so we picked where I would bury her and made her a headstone (her paw prints are in it). It is hard for me to imagine my life without Bootsie in it. She has been in it for the past 16 years.

She is my sweetie my cuddles my companion my best friend. She always wanted me by her side – and she knew I’d always be there just as I knew she’d always be there for me. She was a spoiled little kittie and she knew it – but she gave back so much. She knew when I was down and she was right there to comfort me with her warm furry little purring self. She let me hug her and squeeze her and cry on her shoulders and she just waited for me to feel better….then she’d beg for treats! (and of course I always gave them to her!)

As I sat at my computer the morning of her last day sending an e-mail out to close friends letting them know it was Bootsie’s last day she sat on my lap trying to type (as she always did). I know what she was trying to type to all of HER friends – “‘bye and thanks for the treats!”

I love you so so so so much Bootsie. I wanted to help you. I wanted to fix it and make it better but I couldn’t. I hope you are chasing a string and eating tuna right now and remembering just how much
I love you.

Mommy loves you Boo-Boo!

Kitty by Valerie

Dearest Kitty…

For 15 years you blessed our lives with your love and now we can’t believe that you’re gone. You were such a sweet little creature and we adored you. We loved you too much to let you suffer needlessly. You’re in Heaven now and you’re well and strong again while we grieve for you here. I hope you know how very very much you were and are loved. You’ll be in our hearts forever darling Kitty until once again we can be together.

Please wait for me and
know that I love you
with all my heart.

Muffin by Nancy & Robert

We brought you home as a puppy watched you grow with each passing day. You loved to travel and were always ready to go wherever we going. As we grew older together the playfulness passed from us all. When you started to get sick we knew that the sands of time had passed to quickly and always wanted “One More Day” and it always seemed that it would be so. But our creator needed a companion so he chose you!

We will miss you always
and never forget
the love and happiness
you gave to us.

Mama Kitty by Patty

Dear Momma Girl

I already miss you so much. You were in my life a long time and I am so grateful for that. I will never forget you and you will remain in my heart forever. I remember when you found me.

God will take care of you and
I’ll see you someday.

Bye Momma Kitty.
Your loving human companion.

Snickers by Teri

Snickers was the love of my life. My first pure Peke I was genuinely surprised that he was such a lovebug. Snickers was totally my baby he would let me do anything to him. He especially loved to roll on his back for a bellyrub whether you were holding him or not…lol.

An unfortunate accident with another dog over the food dish took one of his eyes. Seems we no more than got that taken care of and got Snicky back to his old self that he died. A freak accident in our very own driveway. We never let the dogs out when anyone was here. The day of the accident we had let the furkids out not knowing my cousin was here getting hay for his horse. As he was leaving Snicky ran under the back tire of his pickup…dying instantly. It still makes me cry. I loved that little boy so much…I was looking forward to 15-20 years of Peke love not just a little over 2.

Snickerdoodles
I love you baby…
you are still MY boy forever!

Nanny by Dwight

Nanny was my best girl a friend who was always by my side. My most beautiful thought of her is when I had a very serious accident and was in the hospital for a long time it was the first time we were ever separated. I remember when I came home from the hospital how she jumped into my arms. Even though I was still weak from injury she would not leave my side. She was my special girl. I will never forget you Nanny.
See you in heaven.

Love

Dwight

 

Sandy by Carrie

It was a beautiful spring day when we finally said goodbye. This was the last decision I had to make as your friend and one
I never wanted to make.

As a puppy I remember choosing you. You sat at the edge of the cage looking at me and you were fluffier than your brothers and sisters. You were gazing at me with those big brown eyes. How could I resist.

I loved the way you played when I got down and patted my hands on the floor you copied tongue hanging out running
round and round in circles.

I will always remember your beauty your fantastic coat so soft and red. You were so full of life loved your walks along beaches woods forests commons. You loved life chasing everything that moved.

You loved other animals that come our way. I remember you producing milk when we got a kitten and feeding it I could tell in your eyes you were bewildered by it. You sat as still as a statue when we got our present kittens. You only moved when they were comfortable with you. Gentleness was just one of you fantastic qualities.

You were loved by all everyone accepted you as you were so quiet and didn’t ever bark. Eveyone one wanted to make a fuss of you. You were in your element then.

No one can imagine what I feel now as no one was lucky enough to have shared as many memories as we did. You have left a gaping hole inside me I feel empty without you.

You are so special to me. I am struggling for words they all seem so trivial. No words I can think of can justify how much I love you. You’re one in a million and so unique. There is nothing that can ever replace this empty feeling I have. I want to thank you for being my best friend you gave me 14 years of joy happiness and companionship.

Goodbye Puddin
in many years
we will be together again.

With all my love
your friend and Mum {Carrie}

Taffy by Carol & Family

Our family has lost a member of our family. Our sweet and precious Taffy our toy poodle passed April 12 2002. Our hearts are broken. Our home is quite and lonely. Taffy was in our lives and hearts for 16 years. She had been in the family so many years that she saw many animals come and go and always greeted them and became their friend… Now she is gone. Our goodbyes were horrible. At her age we knew this day would come but in your heart
you deny it all…

So Taffy I write this for you my sweet baby I know that you are young again and can see and hear now and the fields of flowers you are now able to run through.
You are sadly missed……..

Love

The family {Carol}

 

Jake by Susie

In memory of Jake

To the faithful friend who always loved us no matter what. Jake lived a long and happy life with us. He had a brain tumor. He began to have focal seizures several times a day medicine would not control them. When I could no longer bear his suffering or mine I decided to have him euthanized. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do.

You see I am a selfish person. I wanted to never give him up but on that day I did what was best for Jake not what was best for me. I gave him back to his creator and thanked him for the happy years we had together.

Someday I hope to meet him
at Rainbow Bridge
until then his memory
will remain in my heart.

Bob by Doris & Dave

We lost our beloved Bert (aka Bob) on April 10th. He died of end-stage kidney failure (with diabetes and cardiomyopathy as complicating factors). He was only 9 1/2!!

We loved him so much. He had such a great personality – all the nurses at the emergency facility where they tried to save him came in to say goodbye to him before we took home for the last time – he was such a popular guy very outgoing and curious. He was talkative and loved to get out of the house; he held up pretty well until that last day. His kidneys kept getting worse and he became very weak and wanted to be left alone once we brought him home (after nothing more could be done). Our regular vets and the front desk girls all knew him too and always asked about how he was doing. He could even shake hands and raise his little paw in the air
for a treat!

Everytime something takes my mind off of the pain for a couple of seconds I have to realize again that he’s gone and I can’t believe or accept it.

We love you Bertie so much!! I still can’t believe that you’re gone! It’s unbelieveably hard to go through this – I keep expecting to see you sitting on the cat condo or on your favorite cabinet:(((

I wish I could turn back the hands of time to when you were healthier. Things will never be the same without you – we miss you so!!!

Ed misses you too…..

Gus by Greg

For nearly 11 years Gus enriched my life. His loud purr how he’d greet me at the door when I came home how he’d ‘sing and dance’ for his treats how he’d touch my nose with his paw when he needed more attention these will alway be the memories I keep of my big guy Gus.

I decided on April 12 2002 that I couldn’t be selfish and keep you around any longer knowing that you weren’t enjoying life as you once did. It was time to let you go to a better place. Where you wouldn’t have cancer. Where you would eat and drink normally again. Where you could do all the things that I loved about you
for your new owner God.

Until I see you again
know that I miss you
and I love you Gus.

Greg

 

Sam by Cattayajjd

Your chair sits empty right now my sam I am. For awhile your mom was sitting in it like she was keeping it warm for you. I’ll save it for you and maybe in another time you can lie in it again. I miss you so sami and so do all your other housemates here. You were special here and your loss was so unexpected we all have heavy hearts now.

Please Sam
be in a better place
and if you are
we’ll all be together
again some day.

Diablo {Dee} by Patty

This tribute is for the best friend anyone could ever ask for. His name was Diablo {Dee Dog} & he gave me 13 years of unconditional love and affection. Sadly April 6th 2002 his body was telling me it was time to let him go to Heaven to join other family members friends and pets who have also had to leave us. He was the BEST!

He was there for me through the death of both parents to let me know he was still here to look after me. He is sadly missed by his Mommie-Dog (me) and his brother Buddy. May you be at peace now and pain-free.

Until we meet again……..

Patty

 

Oscar by Tracey

I lost my beloved cat just before his 15th birtday. I would just like for him to know that the love he gave was unconditional and
he will never be forgotten.

I will miss my childhood friend.
