I’m crying even as I write this for you now Nugget. I miss you so much. I always think about how much you meant to me. My goal was to make your life as great as it can possibly be. I always loved you. I knew you had a great life and you enjoyed it.

Maybe I’m being selfish in wanting to keep you here with me and not letting you go to a better place but I can’t help it. I remember seeing you in that cage at the doctors labored breathing and glazed eyes. I didn’t want to see you like that.

The doctor told me I didn’t have any option the fluid around your heart couldn’t be removed. We made you as comfortable as you can be I gave you a kiss then let you pass. I will always love you Nugget. I can’t even express how much I will miss you
in these words.

I will never forget.

Your owner master
and friend

Brian

Tonight my Hamster Cinnamon
was put to sleep.
She fell and broke her back
and was paralyzed.

I Love you Cinnamon.
You were a cute sweet funny
lively and smart little Hamster.
Just know that I will miss you
and I will always remember you.

Melissa

We still miss you very much
and always will.
We will never forget you.
You were taken from us
in a very cruel way.

There is a bridge connecting Heaven and earth. It is called the rainbow bridge because of its many colors. Just this side of the rainbow bridge there is aland of medows hills & valleys with lush green grass. When a beloved pet dies the pet goes to this place. There is always food & water & warm spring weather. The old & frail are young again. Those who are maimed are made whole. They play all day with each other. There is only one thing missing: the special person who loved them on earth.

So each day they run & play until the day comes when one suddenly looks up! The nose twitches. The ears are up. The eays are starining. And this one runs from the group. You have been seen and you & your special friend meet you take him in your arms & embrace. Your face is kissed & you once again look into the eyes
of your loving trusting pet.
Then you both
cross the rainbow bridge
never to be taken away
from each other again.

I just hope you & grandma are
taking good care of each other.
Until we meet again my good friend.

I love you.

Gizmo was the sweetest hampster – she would greet me in the morning and come out of her cage to be held. She was with me through some of the toughest times and gave me the motivation to continue. She even traveled with me on road trips and had her own “traveling cage” that would get strapped into the seatbelt.

When I left to go visit a law school I told her I was looking for our new home and would be back soon. She passed away due to pneumonia at my parents’ house and the vet put her to sleep so she would not suffer.

I will miss her
every day and every night –
she was my baby and I just wish
I could have been the one
holding her as she died.

Lindsey

Several years ago my sister died and a poem was read at the service that helped me make it through my devastating lost. While I do not pretend to remember it verse and standard I can remember the drift.

It is to you Debi that I post this as I know Jim was like your little boy and you were the best mommy a kitty could ever dream of adopting. You made his life on earth heaven so for him heaven must be
lackluster in comparison.

The gist of the poem was that although you are gone and your human remains are buried here your spirit plays in the wind. You have gone on to be a part of all I see in every day of my life. You are the wind you are the song you are within me always and there will never be a separation there. So do not sit and mourn me rather celebrate me and love another Kitty again as you loved me. This is my gift to you for loving me and your gift to me will be in knowing I am loved by the very god who created me.

Bless you Jim and
Bless you Debi
because when it comes right
down to it.
Love is the answer.

When we first got you as a puppy we thought that you would just be a normal dog. We were wrong you turned out to be something special. You were one of us! We became very attatched to you. You filled the house with joy and happiness. You made us feel safe in the dark. You made us feel better when we were feeling down. You always listened to what we had to say. You made rainy days feel sunny.

The day that you left it felt as though you took part of everyone’s heart with you. It felt as if the pain would never end. Now we know that the part of our hearts that you took with you was to only keep part of us with you as we keep part of you here with us. We know that the part of our hearts that you took was full of memories and good times. We know that you are in a better place now and are happy as ever.

We will not say good bye
instead we will say see ya
later because good bye is forever
and we all know that one day
we will be back together again.

We all love and miss you
ever much Snoop.

The day that I brought you home I was so happy. It was as if I was a new mom bringing home a baby. You were a baby my baby. You knew that I was your mom. You would follow me around the house tripping me and biting my ankles and toes.

When it was time to go to bed you were right behind me going up the steps. You would even sleep on my chest at night. If I shut my bedroom door before you had a chance to get it you would meow until I opened the door to let you in and not stop any sooner.

Everyday I couldn’t wait to come home and see you running around the house or sleeping in one of your favorite spots. My vanity chair will forever be yours.

When you got sick I had a feeling it was bad. You weren’t your crazy self. I got you to the vet as soon as possible. When they told me you had leukemia all I could do was cry and hold you. I never wanted to let you go. I wanted to hold you forever. We had to make that horrible decision no animal lover wants to think about.

Over night you got worse and everyone told me it was time to relieve you of your suffering. When it came time for that final car ride to the vet I cried the whole way knowing I would never hold my Winter again.

I got to be with you as you left this world. The vet told me I was the last thing you saw. As I come home everyday and see your spots empty see your dish no longer there and the toys you will never play with again it still hurts terribly and brings me to tears. Our house in not the same without you
it feels empty.

The day we buried you brought the pain back full force. When you left you took a large piece of my heart that will forever be yours.

I love you and miss you
my sweet Winter!

Angi

Still much loved and missed
but never forgotten.

Lots of love

Beamer my good friend

You passed away this morning shortly after I left for work. I regret so much not being there during your last hours. You were waiting for me patiently by the front door like you did each and every day and I never came. I wanted to be there so much old friend.

I will miss your laying across the keyboard trying to help me type and wanting that extra scratch behind the ear. I will miss your “head rubs” that you gave to me so freely. I will miss you jumping up into my arms every time I came home.

I will miss you laying against my legs at night. I will miss you laying on top of the fridge waiting for your favorite treats. You gave me so very much and did not ask so very much in return. There will be a candle burning in the window each and every night so that you might know the way home. Your treats will always be in the fridge should you ever want them. All your friends send along their love and all wish that you might find that special place where all good pets go.

I will always treasure
our friendship
and you still are NUMBER ONE
in my heart and in my soul.
Your best friend

Dearest Yodett

You were born to a feral mother and rescued by my caring hand. You leaped into domestication and into my heart. So sweet and loving with the most beautiful green eyes I’ve ever seen.

The greatest laser light queen and cat nip toy stalker. You gave me so much joy. I hope I gave as much to you. Our time together was too short.

I’ll meet you
at the rainbow bridge.

You were the smartest of all our dogs even smarter then our MAX who was pretty smart! When we came to pick you up to take you home we named you “TARA” on the way over only to find to our amazement that this was your mothers name! You loved to slid down sliding boards only to climb up the ladder to slide down again and again crying like an excited child with each attempt. You loved my son most of all and could say his name very clearly especially when you knew you were near his house.

You never got excited over anything bad and when on that fateful day we took you to the vet you never blinked when I looked you in the eyes for the last time. Looking back we realize as we get older how much we miss you and when we both die heaven would have no meaning if you were not there with our other dogs to greet us.

May the road always rise up
to met you and the wind
always be to your back
our little “TARA”.

The Love For A Dog

Freckles was my dog and my best friend. She was always there and was the only person I could cuddle with and I knew I could share all my secrets with her. She was a special dog. She loved playing outside. Her most favorite thing to do was I would through a stick or rock in the air and she would catch it in her mouth and bring it to me. She was a beautiful dog. She was a white dog with a black head and little black spots that looked like Freckles on her.

I will never forget the day that I lost my best friend. She was outside playing with my parents and she ran out into the road. She was hit. I heard my mom scream and I looked out the window to see my dad carrying my Freckles to the truck. I ran outside to see if she was dead but they drove off before I had a chance to see. I ran and got my keys to my car and a looked for them. I saw the truck in the vets parking lot and the side door wasn’t even shut. I couldn’t bare to go in so I went out looking for the guy who hit my dog.

He didn’t stop to see if she was ok he just kept driving. I couldn’t find him. While I was looking I saw my parent’s truck go by. When I got to my house I knew what had happened because my mom was crying and
so was my dad.

It was the worst day of my life and I miss her so much to this day. My dad told me that when she got hit she ran into his arms. She bit into his arm and then he felt her die. That was the last of the energy that she had. Our family still misses our Freckles very much. On our fire place we keep the rocks that she loved to play with.
No dog could ever replace
our dear Freckles.

MY GOLDEN ABBY”

As probably in other peoples lives there is always this one pet (to some almost human-like) that seems to step in and take over a huge part of your heart. And when they are gone it leaves a huge gaping whole that almost seems it can never be filled. This was the case with Abby. She was the most precious thing my little girl. My husband got Abby for me as an anniversary present. She was 7 wks. old the day I brought her home. I raised and trained her myself. My youngest son Tyler loved to go out in the field with her and hit the tennis ball as far as he could and she would chase it down and
bring it back.
She loved playing “tennis”.

When she was a little over a year old she came into her second heat and I decided I would breed her to my male Golden Retriever and raise puppies. This was a wonderful time with her. She had a great pregnancy and did really good with the litter of 8 puppies she raised. She was a great mommy. This seemed to draw us even closer. It didn’t matter where I went in the yard she was
always there beside me.

Then shortly after her 2nd birthday I had to let her go. She always stayed in the kennel and was only out while we were home. My husband son and I left for about 45 minutes and left her at home with my other son. As we topped the hill my husband noticed something in the road…when I looked up to see what he was talking about I realized it was Abby! She was killed instantly. She was still warm and soft just like she was only sleeping. I even questioned that she was even actually dead. But in reality I knew she was but I just couldn’t get that thought in my head. I had lost one of the things that meant so much to me in my life. I felt like for a long time that I let her down.

I just had to realize that accidents do happen. Even though it has almost been a year now I still have a really hard time dealing with or talking about her. I look at pictures and remember the great times
(short time) that I had with her.

I just wanted to write
some things down in a tribute
to her life.
She was a wonderful loving
and caring little lady.

I’ll remember you always “Ab”.
My love is with you.

Casper (Lord Caspian) came to us through a teacher at my driving school 2 years ago. He was a tiny little albino ferret. He was a sweetheart. He came to us with a sister named Sammie who died shortly after we took them home. He was a sweet little guy. I will always remember him.

If people want pets I wish they would please take care of them correctly. It’s so hard for those of us who take them over when they are not longer wanted. I am glad I was here to love him. He died in my arms tonight {Monday March 25,2002} at 7:42 pm. He is now with his family in heaven
and I know playing
in those rose bushes!

Thank you for your website
to keep always alive forever.

God bless you.

{I love you Casper}

Only with me for ten months Socks was abandoned by his previous family and left outside for about a month. I adopted him and brought him home. He was only a kitten. Well he got sick HIV and a secondary infection and I nursed him and finally it was time for him to go. Socks had an unusual personality he was almost human. We really bonded
and I miss him so much.

Socks you brought joy
to my life
and I hope I did the same for you.
I will see you at Rainbow Bridge
and we will be together again.
