Tab thru Tyson Petri

A special cat who will never be forgotten..ever

Grace

He was such a "stinker"!, with a truly wonderful spirit that kept myself and his 3 other kitty family members on our toes!

Christine

Tabby was a stray cat in our neighborhood. We had been feeding Tabby for about a month, and we had finally gotten her to let us pet her. And, boy did she ever like it!! She would practically jump up and down when she saw us coming out the front door. I finally realized that she was sleeping on our front porch at night. She was hit by a car right in front of our house this morning before I left for work.

I am missing her so much. I half expected to see her trotting across the street when I came home from work tonight.

The car that hit her didn't even have the decency to stop.

Moxie, our house cat, would hiss at Tabby through the window, and she was very jealous of Tabby. But, tonight, Moxie just sat in the front window for a long time. I bet she was looking for Tabby to come up the front sidewalk.

I know that Tabby is in a better place where she is getting all the food she can eat and all the attention she wants.

Christine

We will remember you-jumping up and clinging to the back door when you wanted to come in, sleeping on our bed, licking the frosting off cakes, curled up in your little furry bed. You never forgot your start in life as a college cat - always wanting to help anyone who was writing or reading. I hope there is sand for you to roll in, shallow puddles to wade in, and lots of birds, butterflies and gophers for you to chase where you are. You will always live in our hearts-our lovely Tabby Cat.

Ingrid Merrill

Tabitha, was a great cat for companionship and adventure. I still remember her taking her exercise on the rooftop at night when I let her out to play because the college apartments didn't allow cats. She lived a long life and enjoyed special care from her grandparents after she retired to the ranch in California. I miss her very much.

Natalie

We love you and will miss you so much. You were my best friend for almost 12 years. Your brother Adam and I will think you every day until we see you at the Rainbow Bridge.

Yvonne Thomas

Tabitha had Adenocarcinoma, and passed peacefully this morning with my husband & I holding her, with assistance from our Vet. She was a beautiful white cat with mismatched eyes, and she was the QUEEN of the house...she is sorely missed - We love you, Tab.

Corinne & John

Tabitha Ann was my constant companion and friend. She gave me support during the darkest of hours and I will always be grateful that I shared her time on earth. She will now be with my brother Jerry until my chores are done here and we can all be together once more.
I miss the way you danced with me and slept next to me and sensed my feelings no other kitty could ever take your place.

Judy Moran

Tabitha Ann was a very special cat...Black in color with eyes like a tiger. She was very special to my daughter Judy and helped her thru so many trials in her life. Slept with her and nuzzled her neck and licked away her tears. She will be missed by all and we know she will be playing with Shadow who passed on in January. We love you TABBY and enjoy the Rainbow Bridge with Jerry. Nanny and Pop Pop

Our best friend, you are MISSED so much. You will always be in our hearts forever and we will see you again some day in Heaven. Tell Sheila we love her too because I know you are playing with her now.

Sigmon and Griffith Families

Gypsy and Taco were the lights of my life. Thank you both for being happy, sweet, loyal little souls. You brought me so much happiness. I hope to see you both again.

Elizabeth Tiffany

My Taco I will always miss you. From the deepest of my heat. And always love you see you in heaven love you mom

Alcira Gutierrez

I found this page by accident.

I was trying to find a site that would tell me how to help my other cat, who has been doing very poorly for the last month since his best friend died. Tad's death is still very hard for me, but it's even worse to see how lost my other cat is without him. There's no way to explain to him why his companion of 17 years is gone...no way to console him.

I suppose the best tribute any person or animal could receive is to look at how sorely he is missed. And Tadberry has left behind one heartbroken owner and one despondent cat. He was dearly loved.

Tadberry was a prodigy...an escape artist, a polite socialite (he tapped on your arm until he received your attention), and a caring brother to Bosley. He was every wonderful thing you could want in a pet. He walked into our yard and our lives when I was a small child...and he stayed for 17 years. And, despite his declining health for the past two years, I think he stayed this long because he knew that he was loved.

Tadberry...I love you. My family loves you. And Bosley loves you. We all miss you terribly. I hope that, wherever you are, you're feeling well again and using your amazing intellect to lead the other cats to mischief.

I miss you. Goodbye, Tad-cat.

Jennifer

Dear Tadpole,

I wrote a little poem just for you...

You will always stay in my heart
Dead or Alive we will never be apart
As hard as it is that you are not here
It's going to be easy to shed a tear
I love you and your my best friend
And we will know each other to the end.

I love you Tadpole,
Your Friend: Shayne

Taffi - I miss you so much and wish you were back here with us. It's worse for me at night when I still expect to see you come running and jump on my lap & curl up. My pillow is empty and I miss hearing your soft purrs. I know you loved us as we loved you and we will cherish your memory forever.

Sleep well sweet Taffi-Toes. You are deeply missed and we will carry your spirit with us in our hearts forever. Thank you for being so wonderful and we are blessed to have had you in our lives. I miss you all the time, but especially at night....my lap and my pillow are empty. We love you, precious. Mommy & Daddy

Taffie was a sweet dog, gentle and friendly. Her full name was Princess Taffina of the Salt Waters. She spent 14 years with my family, and we will always mourn her passing.

Ellie

Although she was a horse she was my best friend growing up. We share so many wonderful memories. My most treasured memory is her son, Blaze. Taff, you will never be forgotten.

Janelle

It's been a month since you left. Not a day goes by that I don't think about all the fun times we had together. I am so lucky to have had you for so long - 24 years! My pictures, videos, memories and stories will always be a treasure in my life. Taff, you will never be forgotten. You will always be my Taffers. I love you,
Janelle.

She gave us joy and laughter for so many years. She was our sweet little baby girl. She was so brave until the end. Sleep well baby girl until we meet again. Mama and Daddy love you.

Taffy ("Tater") mommy misses you so badly and so do your brothers and sisters. We miss your little "ways" you had and we all knew you were the boss of the house. I miss you cutting your little eyes at me and watching my every move. I remember you trying to pick up my tennis shoe and going under the bed with it or trying to pull my shirt or pants under the bed so you would have me near. I had you for fifteen years and the morning you died in my arms is a morning that I will never forget. Mommy wants you back and well again, if only I could see you now, my precious little baby.

Valeeta Robinson

Dear Taffers
You were taken away from me unexpectedly this summer. I wasn't ready to say goodbye to you, my very best friend. I would do anything to take you for one more walk or throw your ball one more time. I miss so much about you. Thank you for loving me no matter what. You will always be in my heart. Love K.

My best friend always, you'll be with me always, angel puppy.

Shirl Thomas

To my dog Taffy:
You were my best friend for 13 years. You gave me unconditional love and were there for me when I needed you most. I know you are in heaven now without any more pain, but I miss you by my side. I know we'll meet again and you'll be waiting for me wagging your tail like you always did. I hope you know how much I loved you, and how much happiness you brought into many people's lives.

Jill

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray, you know Taffy ninny how much mommy loves you and nobody will ever take my sunshine away. Taffy you fought for 3 long years against kidney disease. You never minded the daily needles that gave you extra fluid to help wash away the toxins. Taffy, you are my little trooper girl and one amazing little kitty. I hope you know how much I miss you already and how much I love you. My life won't be the same without you, you have brought me soooo much joy over the years. The last couple of years have been tough for both of us, but I would do it all again to keep you in my life. I love you little sunshine girl.

Love mommy

She was our first "camper" born here at Horizon, and was a wonderful dog and great snuggler. We miss her so much already. Pam and Linda

Taffy was a little spit fire from the first day we brought her home. She was a little dog with a big dog attitude. We had a full size van, and she would run back and forth from the front to the back whenever someone was sitting in the back or front. She was the only pet we had for sometime until Barney came along. She adapted immediately to Barney and immediately started to pick on him. She would steal his bones right from him. When Barney finally started to stand up to her; she would lead him upstairs with her bones and then would run downstairs and grab his bigger bones. Sometimes I think Barney just let her do it, but she believed she was the sneakiest and toughest dog that ever lived. Taffy was always protective of everyone in her life and always had to give her approval of anyone who was in our lives. Taffy had a wonderful personality and lived a wonderful 14 years with me. In the end Taffy was surrounded by her family and her favorite brother Barney. I do believe Taffy is still with me from time to time, and her presence is often felt. Now I hope she is watching over Barney and teaching him the ropes at Rainbow Bridge. Taffy was my best friend through thick and thin, and even in her absence she is my little angel.

Tricia Meinholz

Taffy, you're always in my heart. You saved my family's life when the world seemed to be falling apart. You gave love my friend, and you were given love. I do believe we will meet in heaven and you will be waiting for me, just as surely as I believe God has given you a soul.
On so many days, we took so many walks. I keep your collar on a table in the room. One day, you and I will walk again.

Jeff

Taffy,
You came into my life almost 13 years ago and you were what I had always wanted in a puppy. You were like my baby, I had you almost as long as I have had Kristen, my own child. You are so sadly missed everyday. Your baby, Lucy, scans the floor looking for you and is so sad she can't find you, I know she doesn't understand why you've left. Even though I still have Lucy, Sydney and Jake, they are just not my Taf Taf, my angel. I love you and miss you terribly, please understand how I could fall asleep that night cause I truely felt that you were going to be ok and I'd take you back to the vet the next morning. I look out at your grave everyday and pray that one day I will be able to hold you in my arms again and cuddle and kiss you. I still don't want to believe your gone, I just thought you would be with me forever. You were the most beautiful, perfect Westie. When my time comes, Taffy, please look for me. I will never forget or replace you in my heart.
With my love and thoughts,
Your Momma, Pam

Dear Tafy,
I will always love you, you can never be replaced. The times we spent together will truely be missed, and I will miss you sharing my cereal in the mornings. I think that will be one of the things I miss most about you. I will miss you sitting next to me or in my lap when I watch TV and they way you would climb all over me when I got into bed
at night. Your soft fur, your little nose, and the way you would snuggle up to me will all be missed.
I will always love you taf!

Sara Forish

I still miss you everyday. You are always in my heart and prayers. Thanks for always being there for me. love Marc

Marc B

In memory of my dear, gentle, fun-loving, and faithful companion, Tai. I love you my sweet.

Gailene

You and your sister brought so much joy in our lives. We shall miss your compassionate and loving ways. May you hear our prayers for you and we hope that you and Terra are together and happy. We miss you and love you with all our hearts. Love, Mommy and Daddy

Tai was a beloved companion for 13 years, we were blessed to have him that long. He is never gone from our hearts.
He was a very spoiled little boy as it should be for little animals. We loved him as much as any child could be loved.

Glenda Marani

Talulah came to us at age 6 from a breeder in Nova Scotia. She placed her with us so she could have a loving home to complete her life, after being spayed from a breeding program. She had thyroid problems from day one, was prone to skin and eye problems but yet a wonderful dog. She started vomiting a year previous and just went downhill. A week before she died she would stand in her bed and stare at the wall. We thought she had Alzheimer's (dog version) and were contemplating putting her on Anapryl. I took her to the vet a few days later because she was not eating and seemed so disoriented and despondent. He took blood work and called me an hour later and said she was in acute renal failure. There was only one option. That night my husband, 11 year old daughter and I took her to the vets for her journey to Rainbow Bridge. Sleep well Talulah, we miss you. The breeder still had Talulah's four year old daughter Willow so on November 22nd, she was sent by air to us.

Toby Franz-Goss

Thank you for being my best friend since you were three months old. We learned how to play fetch one day when I was home sick-you kept bringing your toys on the bed and I kept throwing them off! I wish I could have done more for your bout with kidney failure. Even though you didn't understand all the medications, you kept on like a trooper. I will always remember your silky fur shimmering in the sunshine when you sat by the patio doors, and your light green eyes that sparkled like crystals every time you looked at me. I love you Talon!

Adrienne Egan

Tami was a good and brave cat, such a huge comfort to me, a soft, warm presence, purring under the covers. Godspeed to her, and all blessings upon her.

Elaine Knighton

Goodbye, My sweet 'first baby'. I will always miss you!

Teri Pfeffer

We had been together for such a long time, my best friend and bed mate, I will never forget the ball games we played, the long walks we took together the silly little things you used to do, and most of all, how you loved the chocolate, you smelt it a mile off. I miss you so much. Wait for me at Rainbow Bridge and we will be together again.

Love you always,
Your mum

Our beloved girl, Tamlyn, died on Tuesday, September 4, 2001. We loved her more than words can express. She loved us for almost 15 1/2 years. We are heartbroken. She leaves behind her momma and her daddy and her two kitties, Stonewall Jackson and Senator Calhoun (aka Lil'Shug). She lived in Whitefish, Montana and loved the snow. She was born in Kennewick, Washington and traveled extensively with her parents. She sent us a message the morning after she died when we awoke to the sound of rain drops on the bedroom skylight. It had not rained in the parched, fire stricken northwest for more than a month. It was our sign that she had made it to Heaven and was still with us in spirit. It was her message to us to be just a little less cynical and to love every day. Our lives will never be the same without her and we will always love her. The first star we see each night in the sky is Tamlyn, sending her love and care. Momma and Daddy

I miss you so much. I couldn't have wished for a better dog.
The past sixteen and a half years have been a pleasure.

Sian

Tamone was one like a daughter to me. She brightened my life in so many ways. I will miss her cuddles, the way she bumped my hand when she wanted to be petted, her insatiable hunger, her loud, loud purring and every other way she made my days so much happier.

I hope you are happy, honey, up in heaven.

Paula Shirley

Tandie you were my rock and the source of my joy and laughter. You were pure and perfect. God speed my dear friend and may we be together again one day.

Brian Charloe

Tango
We have lost our best friend in the whole entire world!!!
Our hearts have truely broken, never have we had pain like this before.
I had to make the decision not to see you in pain any more, no more poking and prodding by that grumpy vet.
I am so sorry that I could not come with you for your final visit to the vets, Dad was supposed to be much stronger than I am......... well when it came to you this was not the case.
He dug your final resting place under your favourite gum where all your balls always were, he put your balls, bowls and leads in just for you.
Thank You so much for all those years of listening to me and to Sam when no one else would.
Thank you for all your kisses, and looks of its going to be o.k Mum.
I wish you were here now this is just so hard, its so lonely without you here.
Tango thank You so much for being the best dog that anyone would want. Thank You for your Love.

Goodbye my smelly old dog, beautiful dog and most of all MY BEST FRIEND!!!!
Love Mum Dad and Sam.....and of course Milo XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Tanya, this is for you, we miss you so much.
Fifteen years ago we found a little one. A little babe so alone and so afraid. We took you in and there you stayed, in our home and in our hearts. We grew together, you and I, constant companions, side by side. The years went by and still you stayed, constant companion, by my side. The time has come that we must part, my constant companion you will always be side by side and in my heart. Tanya, my beloved, best friend.

Ellen & Russ

Tappy, You were a sweet dog who was always very nice to alot of people. I wish your life could have been longer, but I know we will see you on the other side...Bye Bye girl...for now.

Katie Knight

My beloved Tara crossed the Rainbow Bridge today at 2:15 p.m. surrounded by her fur-friends. She came as a stray from the SPCA in Dec. 1989 and brought joy and delight and zest for life to all who were privileged to know her. She is sorely and deeply missed. Goodbye Tara until later. We love you and miss you.

Christine Hanrahan

Tara was the first of my two very special baby girls in my life that have passed on. In 1975, everything was about the Bicentennial and Tara was advertised as "the only Bicentennial Dog". This was because her color was called "Red & White" (even though it was a beautiful lightish coppery color and white) and her eyes were the most beautiful crystal blue you ever saw. Tara went to Heaven on Valentine's Day 1982. I wanted her to be remembered here. She was my best friend/child/companion and to this day, I still miss her. Fall always reminds me of her because with the first hint of the crispness in the air, she got frisky. She loved the colder weather. She was a loyal and loving companion and my first dog. I was 21 years old when I got her. I will always remember her beautiful face and looking into those beautiful, loving, trusting eyes and petting that soft, thick fur. She is forever in my heart and waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge for the last 19 years. Her body is buried in my parents' back yard in my Mom's "Secret Garden", along with her favorite toys and food dish. My Dad made a grave stone of slate with her name and her year of birth and death. She has an azalea planted at the head of her grave above the gravestone and some ivy is growing around, and she has an antiqued avocado green wrought iron, leaf and acorn design railing around the head of her grave. I never had another dog again until Brittany Bean, the Chocolate Lab, who went to Heaven just 8 weeks ago on Oct. 19, 2001. It was a couple of weeks after that when I found this website. Brittany will have her own tribute under her name. I didn't wait so long this time to adopt another special girl, and now have a 9-week old Black Lab/Husky mix named "Coalie". Isn't that fitting, that she is a mix of the breeds of my two special ones that are gone? I saw in Best Friends magazine that "loving arms shouldn't be empty for long". Even though I still grieve deeply, I have opened my heart to Coalie. Maybe it's good to have something happy along with the terrible sadness.

Leslie Baker (Jacobsen)

What a special kitty, we have lost. She was the most beautiful tabby cat, I have ever seen. Such beautiful markings, and big green eyes. She loved hanging out on top our kitchen cabinets in the greenery, or laying on the hearth of our fireplace. Every morning when she heard our alarm go off, up on the bed she came making sure we were getting up. She always followed my husband around in the morning, and watched him get ready for work. For some reason if he made it into the bathroom with out her, she would paw at the door and meow until he let her in. She will be missed so much. I am very thankful we went to visit her at the vet and got to pet her, and tell her we loved her moments before she passed on.

Amanda and Brent Davidson

Tara's special gift as a therapy dog was needed elsewhere. She leaves a pawprint on the hearts of all who knew and loved her. A good dog never dies she always stays she walks beside you on crisp autumn days when frost is on the fields and winter's drawing near her head is within our hand in her old way. -- Mary Carolyn Davies

A wonderful and loyal friend very sadly missed.

Stephen Bird

Rest in peace my darling Tara-Bara. We will miss you tremendously. You brought us great joy and laughter in your days with us. Emilee misses your tuck in at bedtime complete with nibbles and kisses. You are loved more than you will ever know. Ginger and Zara miss running with you in the yard and barking when people walk by. Wait for me to join you someday in heaven.
Love Mommy

Tara my sweetheart; you were my very first Boston Terrier and you loved everyone and everyone that met you loved you. When I first met you it was love at first site. You jumped up onto my lap and started kissing away.
I enjoyed all the wonderful years that we spent together. Also the wonderful litter of puppies that you had. I kept one of the puppies just for you. She was as sweet as you, she loved her tennis balls and toys, she used to fight with you over the toys, but not once did you ever fight back with her. You always ended up going to the vet, because she bit your paws up and they got infected from her bites. But you always forgave her. Well now you are in heaven with your Daughter, BabyFace where you can play together once again. Tara I will miss you a whole lot, for you were a one of a kind, there will never be another like you. Please rest in peace my little (mama) as that's what I always called you, until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. Love Always.

Linda Baylor

Taken from us suddenly after a short illness, her heart could not take the strain at 12 years. The most loving, and most loved dog we have ever had. Rest in Peace.

Ian Harrison

We miss you still, and talk about you all the time, you are forever in our hearts.

Tommy Proctor

Targa, you were my best friend and protector. I wish we had more time together. I will see you again, when we cross the Rainbow Bridge.

Tracy

Tarka was a the best cat that I ever had. He loved to cuddle and sit in the sun. He also would run over to the heater vent and sit on it when he heard it come on. He was 18 years old and was full of love and life till the very end. I know that he is now pain free and happy.

Tarka will be greatly missed. I will miss the way that he stared at you till he got under the covers and how he used to howl in empty rooms. I love you!

~Steph~

Tartus, you were my best friend for over 7 years. I made a promise to you that moving to Chicago would mean a better life for both of us, and I can't help but feel as though I've let you down.

Putting you 'to sleep' was the last thing on my mind, when I took you to the emergency room. You didn't seem to be in any pain, but I knew (even before the vet mentioned it) that you would have been miserable, had I continued treatment. Even if surgery were successful, there would always have been a good chance that the prolapse would return.

You always did seem to understand that it was my lifetime goal to become friends with every cat I meet. If I pet another cat, you didn't get annoyed and walk away when you smelled my hands; you were never the jealous type. It was almost as if you couldn't tell I was skritching another cat. But you knew, and you didn't punish me, for it.

I'm still crying over the finality of it all. The fact has been driven home that I will never, again, hear your purr; or feel you biting my hand to wake me up and feed you; or hear you using feline-sonar to locate your litter-box. Never again will I delight at the sight of you closing your eyes and leaning into my fingers as I skritch your chin; nor laugh as you bat a milk-carton ring around the living room; nor smile as you greet me at the end of my work day.

Happiness is a warm purr curled in your lap, gently flicking its tail in contentment. I can only hope to know a similar happiness; but it will never be the same. You will always be sorely missed. May you find the light.

Love, always Jack

Our Sweet Pea left us after a long battle with heart disease. Her heart betrayed her and would not sustain her anymore. We think it is because she used it too much to give love. Her brothers will miss her, too. There is one more angel in Heaven, and one less angel on earth.

Jeff & Teresa Granger

Tash's special webpage

http://www.geocities.com/tashtan2001/tash.htm

Tash was my little angel girl sent from Heaven, she was happy when I was happy, she was sad when I was sad. She loved me more than any human possibly could, she didn't care if I looked bad, she didn't care if the house was messy, she didn't care about anything except her couch and beanbag and something for din and being close to me. Her precious little life of nine years with me was taken away as quickly as she came. I truly believe she was a little angel sent from Heaven to look over Mummy.

I can't hug her and hold her and snuggle up to her, I miss her sweet little face nudging mine, but I know she's up there in Heaven safe and warm still watching over me.

A special goodbye to a special little girl who will never be forgotten,

Mummy loves you sweetheart

To our beloved Tasha who passed on to a better place. You brought sunshine when it was dark and you brought smiles to our faces when we were sad. You will be missed but you will always be in our hearts.

Mike & Chantal Fleury

"No Heaven will not ever Heaven be; unless my cat is there to welcome me." Goodbye my sweet girl. Thank you for choosing me. You have taught me many things and I will cherish our time together forever. Take care of Emily for me. Until we meet again.... Mom

My beloved Tasha, I still remember your after it has been 12 yrs. Since you past away, you are still in my heart and I will always thank God for allowing me to have such a beautiful and wonderful girl as you!!!!

Irina Zapp

Tasha, I miss you. We had nearly 17 years together. You were my best friend. I will always love you like one of my children. Jake will join you soon. He is sick too. Love Mom

Thank you, my sweet, darling Tashy-cat, for bestowing me with your love and presence. I was so lucky to have you in my life and truly blessed to be holding you when you went to the Bridge. Wait there for me, sweetheart, I will love you for eternity. Boris and I miss you terribly but you will live in our hearts forever. We'll all be together one day. Til then, my sweet girl, goodbye *XXOO*

Tasha, you were with us such a short time but brought so much love to our family. Jake is going to miss you his best buddy. You will be in our hearts forever. We love you and miss you.

Crystal, Tom, Matt and Jacqueline

You gave us 17 wonderful years of loving you and being loved by you. You will always be in our hearts. We miss your meow and your beautiful blue eyes. We miss you always wanting to sleep right in the middle of our chests. You are our Angel and we will see you on the Rainbow Bridge. All our love, Mom and Dad

Tasha you were the love of my life, No one can ever replace you in my heart. God bless you and god take care of you until we are together again, I love you. Mommie

Tasha was truly our "child with fur". Looking into her beautiful blue eyes was like seeing into her very soul. We have loved and lost cats before Tasha, but never has the pain been as great. Surely God has found a very special place for her in Heaven, and that is why he called her home to be with him.

Bruce and Linda

To Tasha - the light of our lives and the heart of our hearts Unique and one of a kind, you were more special to us than words could ever say. More than our dog, you were our child. You touched our lives in ways we couldn't have imagined. God sent us an angel to watch over us and love us when he sent us you. Your incredible sensitivity, astuteness and intelligence; your kind and gentle spirit and soul; your warm and loving ways will never be forgotten. You were taken from us much too soon and unexpectedly. Your loss is very painful and almost more than we can bear. You will be greatly missed and close to our hearts forever. You were God's gift to us and we were lucky to have had you in our lives for awhile, although it wasn't long enough. We love you always. We think of you and pray for you everyday and look forward to the time when we can all be together again in heaven. Until then, know our love transcends all time and space and we'll love you VERY much for all eternity Rest in peace, my angel.

Donna and Glenn Holbrook

Tasha, you were always here, every day for 13.5 yrs. You fought so hard to the end. I can't believe you are not coming back. You and the love you have given us can never be replaced. I find consolation in that you had a long and full country life. I miss your floppy ears, golden blond hair and always wagging tail, and will so forever. Your sister and brother miss you too. We had so many beautiful memories together. God Bless you my Baby.

Joel Burr

I prayed for God to provide me with the dog He had in mind for me, and He gave you to me. Thank you, Lord, for the precious gift of Tasha, for 15 wonderful years together, and for the strength You gave us to end her suffering when the time came. And thank you, Tasha, for your unconditional love, comfort, and attention you gave us all those years. You loved to "talk" to us, and we'll never forget your "woo-woo-woo". Someday when we are reunited, I'll hear your "woo-woo-woo" again. Until then, chase squirrels in health, and be happy playing with all the new friends you've made over the Rainbow.

Kim & Bob

Tasha was a beautiful loving pet. We still miss her.

Connie Carlson

Tasha came to me from the Humane Society in PA when she was 8 weeks old. she loved life, attended obedience classes every Friday nite for 6 years, she loved agility and riding in the car. She gave me so much love and understanding and I miss here terribly. I know she is not in pain anymore, her sister Snicker's misses her almost as much as I do, There will never be another companion pet like her.

Candace Sanchez

I miss you and always will, I now that you are in heaven and god is looking after you.
I just wish to thank you for all those wonderful years together.
I love you and always will.
See you later my sweet angel.

Vikki

Tasha T W was born 3.15.?

Tasha, It is amazing how much you, a little creature added to our life. I have so many memories, some sweet - every night this week you slept purring on my pillow with me; some hilarious - like the time Steve heard you screeching for help in the middle of the night. You were caught high up in a tree three blocks down from our little Texas house or your incessant desire to lick our hair.

All I know is that I am going to miss you so much. You have been my comfort and my company in so many lonely times. You made us laugh and we loved you even though we joked that you belonged on a farm.

I don't know what others believe about the afterlife of animals. I personally can't conceive of a God who who create such marvelous fascinating beings and then just let them die.

In the words of Irving's Prayer for Owen Meany "...into paradise may the angels lead you" Tasha, I look forward to seeing you again one day.

Love Stacey & Steve

Tasha Lynn was my special baby. I miss her so much. She will always be remembered. She died suddenly of congestive heart disease. She was the best dog, best friend I ever had. I never had to scold her, I only had to raise my voice and she would quit whatever she was doing that made me mad. There will never be another Tasha Lynn.

I'll see you in heaven someday, my baby girl!

Rhonda Yarbrough

I have never loved anything so much in my life. You have given me 14 years of love and devotion and laughter. I love the way you always stuck to your "schedule." The way you would jump into bed and "meow" for me to "move over and make room" and how you purred every night by my side and shared the pillow. "Checking your food" dish before I left the house was always a highlight. I remember how you loved music and Christmas and the wool blanket. And how you would run out to meet me when I came home and check the shopping bags for tissue paper. I love your spunk and your feisty attitude which you held onto right until the end. The doctor was quite charmed with you little snarling fit in the Oxygen tank and I will always remember, after you got over being mad me, that look of love and trust in your eyes and the purring you gave me in what was our last goodbye. I am so sorry you got sick. I will miss you and I love you and I will see you someday again! Love, Mom.

Tater Bug got car sick and died of aspiration and suffocation. We miss him terribly. There will never be another little clown like Tater Bug again.

Becky Rohrbaugh

Tati wasn't just my cat, he was like a son for me. I would do anything to share with him some more time, but it's impossible now. The only thing that comforts me is thinking that some day we'll be together again and nothing will take him away from me.
TATI: I miss you so much...I'll never forget you.

Maria Laura Vidoz

I found my sweet little Tatum June of 2000. I found her on my front porch and she had either been abused by someone or hit by a vehicle - She had brain damage and was blind in one eye and could barely see out of the other - She was so skinny and malnutritioned and most of the fur was gone on her little head and ears - I took her to the vet that morning thinking she wouldn't make it but miraculously she did - I took her home and my husband and I gave her all the love in the world - She ate and got a fat little belly and all of her fur grew back - It didn't take long for us to fall in love with her - She brought so much joy and happiness to our lives - Then on February 4, 2001 we came home from the store and when I went to check on her she had died - I guess the poor little baby just couldn't hold on any longer from where she had head trauma - I loved my little Tatum so much - My heart still today feels like it is broken in two - My husband and I both just feel like a part of us is missing - It's amazing how you can get so attached to an animal in such a short period of time - But the seven months we had her we made up for the first eight months of her life - I bought a little plaque the other day that says "the paw prints you left on our hearts will remain with us forever". I will never ever forget you Tatum - Mama misses you so much - I love you baby!!!!

John Thomas & Kim Keene

Little angel, we ache for you. Please know how much you were loved.

Sharon & Tawni

My Dear Taylor Girl,

I miss you so much that I do not know how to go on each day without you. But something pushes me to go on, and I know that that is the strength I have learned from. You have taught me and Daddy SO MUCH, that I could never thank you enough for. I thank you eternally from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you for choosing us to share your life with, even if for such a short time. I am honored to be your Mommy, and I always will be.

Thank you for teaching me to love so intensely. My life is forever changed because of the love you have given me and taught me.

Thank you for bringing me such intense joy. I never imagined that I could have so much joy in my life.

I hope Mors and Papa are loving you just as much as your Daddy and me do, and are petting your soft wonderful ears. I am relieved that you will no longer be in misery, that you will never be alone again, and that you will be well loved, well fed, and so well taken care of. I pray that you are joyous and happy, and playing and spinning around in circles in heaven, bringing smiles and laughter to all those around you.

I am waiting for the day when I will see you again in Heaven. I hope you are the first one to greet me there! I miss you and love you more than words can ever express, my Love!!!

Be happy and joyous, and I will see you in Heaven when my time comes.

I LOVE YOU, MY DEAR SWEET TAYLOR GIRL!!!!!

Love Eternally,
Mommy

In memory of a beautiful and sweet dog, with a lovely redwood colored coat, who would come to me to be petted and quietly stand while I stroked her soft ears. She had to go too soon and I wanted to play with her a bit longer....Love from Grandma Ellen

A Love Letter to Taz.

My dear little Taz, you left me so fast, so suddenly and so lonely. I miss you so terribly much.
Words cannot express the deep grief that I feel. It was a tragic death, and this has changed me forever. Today I cannot do anything, I cannot even cry anymore as my tears have already cried to dry. I have so much regret and guilt.

I never should have sent you to that Dr in California. Your problem never was a deadly disease and you died due to what? I asked the Dr "Why did my Taz die?" he said 'I don't know'. I said if you didn't learn anything from my Taz's death, then she died in vain, because how can you keep from letting this happen in the future if you don't know why now?

I will never forget your big brown eyes and your crying and begging me not to leave you there, but I left you there anyway. When the next time I saw you, you had already become cold.

I look at your urn, where you are kept on my desk and I say to you: Taz, I love you so very much, please forgive me and if there is a God I will see you in another world. The emptiness left in my heart is almost more than I can bear.

With my whole heart, I love you Taz, please wait for me.

Bill

Taz, you came into our lives on a cool, rainy night almost 2 years ago. I'm so very sorry that the only place that would take you was the shelter. You know how hard I tried to find someplace that wouldn't destroy. I don't know your fate, perhaps it's better I don't. You were the sweetest, most gentle little dog for a stray, we weren't sure how long you were on your own, or how old you were, we didn't think you were more than 2 though. I knew you needed a family, but at the time it couldn't be us, and for that I am sorry. Taz, in the day and a half we had you, you made such an impression on me. You were wise beyond your years, all anyone had to do was look at your sweet face to see that. You made us all laugh, showed us how smart you were, & in the end made us all cry because we couldn't give you the life you deserved. If you were adopted, hope you're living it up having a great time & being treated like royalty, you deserve all that and so much more. If not.... forgive me, you see I have always thought of you & wondered. You certainly left your little paw prints on my heart, and took a piece of my heart with you that day. Wherever you are, be strong, play, and run free little man. I'll never forget you!! Your "Mom" (even if it was a short time, I'll always be your mom.)

To my little buddy, TAZ. Although it's been a few years since you passed, I still miss you terribly. You passed by doing what you loved best, chasing a ball. Unfortunately we could not stop you and the driver of the car did not stop either. I'll never forgive him for taking my little buddy without even stopping to see if everything was OK. You are buried in the backyard with a beautiful head stone. You were taken away too young from me, only two years old.
I cried for weeks on end. I could hear you walking around the house and your collar jingling. After mourning for almost one year, I decided to get a new little buddy. His name is Mario, he is also a Bull Terrier like you. You will never be forgotten. That's a promise.
Love Always, Michelle (Momma)

I can honestly say I have never loved or been loved better!

Rick Unland

I know you will always love us and you know we love you. I will always love you taz. That car might have killed you, but you still live in my heart. I never had to ask you things twice you always listened to me. We love you
Taz don't forget that!
Torey Ellen Stewart

Here is one of many times that I will look into my heart and express the love I will nuture for my special friend Tazz. He is, as all of our pets are, my best friend and I love him dearly. His body decided it was time to quit, yet he fought onward knowing that I wanted to be with him if not but a few more days. I had the very special privilege to gaze into Tazz's eyes as he was put to sleep and to let him know that I will always love him. He is my best friend and I pray to God that he is now at Rainbow Bridge having the time of his life.

Tazz, I love you... be good... and play nice.

Noel Stephens

T-Bert was a very good friend and a very special pet. We shared alot of special moments together with his "Mom" (Tigger, which we lost just three months ago) He is now with her at the bridge sharing in peaceful moments. My heart is broken and empty as I await my time to join them. Until then I will cherish the years (17) that T-Bert and I had together and the years (18) that "Mom" and I had together. I will miss them deeply and hope that they know how much I will always love them and think of them... Peace be with you T-bert.... Run now and play with "Mom"
Join her in her eternal happiness.... I love you "Kutzie T-bert". My heart weeps for you both...

Robert Childs

T-Bird was very loved by her owners. She was a special cat, who had a long life. She was a fighter up until the very end. The cancer she had won out. Her parents did all they could for her but even the chemo couldn't help, it just brought some time to say their good-byes for now until they are reunited and cross the bridge together.

TC Soto

T, you will forever live in our hearts. You were a blessing in our lives. I will miss you following my every step. Thank you for the love you have always given me. You will be greatly missed. I know the day will come when we will once again be together. I love you. Mommy

For 7 years of happiness

Dianne

My little "T", you were the light of my life and the joy in my heart. I can't believe you've gone from me so soon. 14 years was not enough time with you. Even after your departure of 1.5 years, I still can't believe you are gone. I love you so much, still. Your daddy was so stricken and had such a hard time watching me mourn your absence every day. The day you died in my arms was the hardest day I've ever had. You know that Sigi loves you and still looks for you. Even though Sugar has come into our lives since, she will never be "momma's little one" like you were. No one ever will have that place in my heart but you...You have and always had my heart. Wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge...I will be there, one day, I promise. I will be there, and I will find you once again. Love, your Momma

To my Boo Bear, How strange life can be Teak, I Had some doubts about your recovering from this, but did not expect that you would take it into your own hands, and spare mommy from having to pick a date for you to pass on. So you picked the day yourself and , well Teak, only you would have made it easier for me , knowing that if you passed on at the hospital while you were with the doctor, that all of this would be easier for me to cope with. I know we both thought that if you ever recovered from this, the road ahead would be long and hard, and I had my doubts , I'm sure you had some too. I could tell , after you left, I looked at all the pictures I ever took of you, in every picture you had a huge smile on your face and a gleam in your eye, except for the pictures I took of you the last few weeks, I see now , what I couldn't see then, the twinkle was gone and no smilie was there.
When I went to the hospital to see you after you died, I saw you in peace for the first time in a few months, as sad as I was , I guess I was relived that you will not be in pain any longer. I took a piece of your hair and will put it in a special box along with your ashes and leash and pictures. It will always be close to me , so we can still be together even though your not here in body, your spirit will always be close by. I will plant a tree in the yard for you and watch it grow and every time I look at it, I will think of you.
I came home that night and told all the dogs that you went to dog heaven, Pav was so sad, he will miss you so much, you were his playbuddy, Gruntly keeps looking for you, Kaluah, well what can we ever say about her Teak? Lu , will always be Lu. Spikey went in the laundry and grabbed a dirty sock and played for the first time in 5 years, she made me smile and laugh, even if it was only for a few minutes.
We have been through so much together , haven't we? If you weren't here to help me get through all my illnesses, I probably would have beat you to that special place in the sky. Through all of the ups and downs, you have been right by my side, and for that I am so grateful that I had such a great best friend to share it all with. I know one day we will be together again , Mommy and all the dogs , and when the time comes we will be a family again, until then, I hope your safe and happy and no longer suffering, I hope you make nice friends and play and eat well, I hope your new life is wonderful and peaceful again. I love you and miss you so much. I will never forget you, I know you feel the same way too.
I love you Teakhie Bear.

Teala is missed so much. We hope she is doing all the things she loved.......swimming, running and playing. We will never forget her or the way her ears lifted in the wind when she ran. She loved life so much and we are just lost without her.

Combra Family

Dear Teardrop,

I will not let your tragic death be in vain. I wept for you as I picked up your lifeless body on the road where you were left by the human that hit you with their car. I promise you I will continue to explain to others why all cats should be indoors. Play with Webster another victim on the same road where you met your tragic ending. I will think of you every time I pass that spot. I only wish I could have saved you instead of only being able to wrap you in a blanket. Play and chase butterflies Teardrop-I named you this since I shed so many as I lifted you from the road.

Love
Cindy

Teaser was the best lake dog that ever lived. She loved to fish and swim. Everyone knew and loved her. We will always miss her.

Sylvia Christian and Steve Hicks

Teddi, we never realized how short 12 years was until last Saturday. It seems like only yesterday you brought your wonderful heart and gentle spirit into our lives. You can't imagine how much we miss you but knowing that you can run and play again brings us comfort. Until we see you again enjoy your time at the Rainbow Bridge.

Tom and Sherry Doyle

To My Special Friend Teddy

I'm so sorry I wasn't around for you in your last days. I'll regret no taking you home to live with me always.

I know you had a good life, but I'm so sad that you are gone. You'll remain in my heart forever, I only hope one day we'll be together again.

Love Murray

He was my dance partner for many years. Our link was like a marriage... and even when apart, we were one. I will miss him forever.

Betsey White

You were always there for me, a Buddha dog, very peaceful, never asking for anything, patient, gentle, loving...I'll miss you old friend.

CB

To Teddy, our beloved, lovable, snuggable, kitty. We love you so. Today was the worst day of our lives. The house is so empty without you. But we know you are in a better place Teddy. I will miss you tonight, when you don't share my pillow as you did last night and for 13 years before that. How will I ever go to sleep? You are and always will be my companion, but now in spirit--with me wherever I go. My heart longs to hear your purring, your little meows, to meet you at the door when I get home from work. We love you Teddy, forever and ever beyond all time.

Love, Barbara & Gary

Teddy you have been with us since we have been in high school. Then when we got married we got you a buddy his name was Tucker. We were all 4 together for 12 years and now we lost both of you this year. Tucker's death was a total shock to us we were playing one day and the next day he wasn't breathing right his heart murmur was making his heart work extra hard. We brought him home that evening and he passed in the night. Teddy you were getting older and it was getting harder for you to walk. After your seizure you didn't have the strength to use your back legs so we did the best thing we thought we could do so you wouldn't suffer. We let you go see you buddy Tucker. We hope to see you both in the future and with your other two buddies too. We loved you guys VERY MUCH.

Chad and Julie Biever

We will miss you dearly

A Tribute to Teddy

Sadly gone, but not forgotten,
Teddy will be missed by Grandma Lou
and her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren too.
A funny, little curly top
who liked to clown
with toys, empty pop bottles, and pine cones too.
He knew her needs:
companion,
confidant,
and healer too.
When Grandma had open-heart surgery,
it was Teddy who pushed her to return to her daily schedule.
Bless you little guy!

Written by Granddaughter Terri,
a fellow pet LOVER

To My Little Teddy Bear

I never saw a dog smile
Until there was you....

You greeted me at the door every day
  And let me know you loved me in every way.
Love was in your smile, your kiss, your wagging tail;
  Your love was unconditional; it would never fail.
You never held a grudge.
  You just asked me to love you with a gentle nudge.

You came into my life when I was in pain.
  You had the power to heal and to keep me sane.
To our family you were kind, gentle, and warm.
  You protected us from strangers who might do us harm.
My little girls grew up and moved away,
  But I knew if you could, you would always stay.
You will always be my little Teddy Bear.
  If I get to Heaven I will see you there.

I never knew a friend who could always make me smile
  Until there was you.....

PAWPRINTS IN THE SNOW

They say when pets pass away
They go to Rainbow Bridge and play.
They do not cross the bridge just yet,
Not until their masters come to join their pet.
You've been gone for a number of days,
But no rainbow above appears through the haze.
I look for a sign from heaven or you.
I'm hoping to learn the legend is true.
My heart is heavy, my eyes filled with tears;
You were my friend for so many years.
You followed me everywhere I would go.
Now I hang my head and look down at the snow.
Little pawprints sparkle up at me;
Make me so sad I can hardly see.
Then I wonder as I heave a sigh,
Did you send me a sign from the bridge on high?

In loving memory of Teddy

Oh Teddy, how I miss you. Not an hour has passed that I don't see your sweet face. You were the best friend I'll ever have. You were always there with your unconditional love and a lick on the nose. Tatoo and Toby miss you too. I know in my heart we will all be together again some day. Please wait for me at the bridge.... I'll be looking for you. I love you and I'm sorry if I ever let you down. Love, Me XO

Thank you for giving us the unconditional love for the past 13 years. We miss you very much and love you always.

Lorrie and Tiffany

I will never forget the feeling of relief and comfort our dog provided on any given day! The world could be all wrong and he'd know.
He held the secret to life, simply curl up next to me and look at me with loving eyes as to say; "I understand."
I hope there is a heaven and you're being rewarded for the simple way of providing pure love.
Love you forever,
Eric

Teddy momma loved you very much and misses you terribly. I'm so sad without you. you were such an everyday part of my life. The house is so quiet without you. I miss hugging you everyday telling you how much I loved you. You gave me such unconditional love and happiness. Everyone tells me you died where you wanted to be and that was right next to me. my life will never be the same without you. Everyone miss's you so much. I'm so glad that you didn't suffer and that you died with that smile on your face that you got when you were all content. you'll always have a special place in my heart. No other dog will ever replace you. I hope to see you in Rainbow Bridge and that you remember me.

Nicki Mazick

Thank you Teddy Bear for being the best friend I could have ever had. You have always been there for me. I will miss you greatly, but I will meet you at the Bridge.

Diane Flynn

Teddy Bear, you were my life companion. Always by my side protecting me and loving me. I will miss you until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Janet Cronin

Teddy Bear I love you and miss you with my entire heart and soul.
It is so unfair that your life was cut short at 6 months old.
You were a very special and intelligent puppy.
You were such a unique looking puppy that everyone fell in love with you the minute they layed eyes on you.
I'm lonely for our morning cuddles but I know I will someday have that again.
The guilt I feel for taking you to the vet to get neutered and having your little heart stop under the anesthetic is unbearable.
I love you my baby and so does your daddy.
As a tribute to you I will try to help abandoned puppies find loving homes like the one you had.
Take care of Snowflake.

Your Mommy.

Teddy my sweet lovable little guy; I'm going to miss you so much. You would come out and sit on my lap and rub around my face purring as loud as you could, I will never forget those times we had together little guy. You were only sick for a month before you were taken away from me, but now your pain is all gone, and you can rest in peace with your buddy Baby Face, and we will all meet again someday at the Rainbow Bridge. But for now little guy good Bye, and just remember that I loved you very much

Linda Baylor

Ted was a wonderful grey and white boy who was taken from us too soon. We loved him dearly and we still miss him. He is now joined by Oscar at the Bridge - they are waiting for us together - at least now he has a special friend.

Amanda Grey

To My Dear TEEPEE:
Now you rest. Everyone that met you would always say: What a Lady. Your duty as my signal dog has been done and you were a faithful friend. I will miss you ever so much. My heart is breaking. When Jesus comes, we will meet again. Love,

Liane Holland

Happy Days, Emily Dog

Emily Dog, Puddin' Head, your nose led you everywhere.
No sweeter face, Ira Teeter gave you up to us,
changing your future from rabbit dog to Zac's best pal.

As a pup you held the frisbee in front of your face
and walked right into the fence.
But you trotted back to us and nodded along with our smiles.

Lapping and licking and rolling your eyes like laughter,
you danced at the sound of children, wiggled your way along
in a frolic of love and light-heartedness.

Now soft springtime fields stretch before you,
your legs not touching the ground, you glide across clover, ears wafting in the wind.

Happy days, Emily Dog.

Rose Raney

My little black baby.

Bonnie

Thank You Tellie for being born and making this family richer. Your love and courage has made us better people. Pets are truly that thing which teaches us compassion.

To our Peanut..We will always love you, our first baby. You can have all the ice cream and cookies in Heaven. Love from, Mommy and Daddy

Dawn and David Armbruster

Our hearts are broken.....

Joe and Blake

Terror,
You were the best dog and friend I've ever had, I love you and miss you so much, you made my life worthwhile and I don't know what I'll ever do without you. The house is so empty. I'll always remember you as will everyone else. I'll see you again someday at the Bridge. Love Your Mom Sonya

Dear Tesla,
I hope you know how much you were and always will be loved. We know how much you loved us. We miss you so much and feel so blessed that the Lord chose us to take care of you. We wish it could have been longer, but no amount of time would have been long enough. You were so special. We miss the way you wagged your tail so hard your butt wagged with it, the way you loved us so much you just couldn't get close enough, the way you tried to understand when we talked to you, the way you checked your leash to see if it was walk time, the way you wrapped your little body around the lounge chair, but most of all the way you lived every day of your life to the fullest - enjoying and being grateful for everything you had.

We will never forget you. You will always be our #1!

Love,
Mommy & Daddy

Tess touched all of us in many ways
Entertaining on a lonely day
She gave, loved and filled our hearts
She accepted each of her family from the start.

Tess, you were teddy-bear-like, with a smile so wide
Ready to walk and to play 'most' of the time
And at the end in all your pain
Instant wag of the tail when we called your name.
Losing you has left a gap
Lost is your smiling face in our laps.

We soldier on but hold your memory tight
Even reminiscing your life by candle light.

Love has no end, even though you have died
Oh Tess, we want you by our side
Vivacious, loyal, kind and true
Eternally we shall think of you.

You Tess remain forever in
Our hearts, resting
Under the sun and stars.

WE LOVE YOU TESS!!

Russell and Casssandra Traill.

My little Tessie Girl, I am going to miss you so much. I'm so glad we had some special time together after your diagnosis. I am going to miss your sneezing, your groaning, and your smile. I've never seen a dog smile at people the way you do. You were a joy to have around. When I'm out in the yard, I'm going to think of you following me around. I'm sure we will meet again someday. Until then, we love you, and we will remember you always. Mark, Kris & Stewart

Fifteen years old is a long time for a Golden Retriever. We had so many happy years with her and she was the sweetest dog one could ever wish for. However her pain, and the pain of watching her in pain forced us to the final decision to let her go while she still had some dignity left. It is so hard to let her go and we will miss her so much. Go be a Good Girl Tess...

Love from your family of people, Mom, Dad, Adam, Brian and Carolyn, (also the cats and Chico).

The Jobse Family

On Tuesday, March 27, our beloved cat Tess passed away. She had fought for over five years against lymphoma, diabetes, feline herpes, arthritis and finally, heart and kidney disease.

Tess was big and sturdy but the most gentle of our three cats and the most trusting.  She was also the most lovable. She tended to be indecisive, cautious and, because of her size, a bit clumsy but we once saw her leap high into the air and catch a bird in flight.  She was a natural clown but she bore her afflictions with stoicism and dignity.

Over the last five years, caring for Tess became a lifestyle for us.  We are especially grateful to Dr. Lori Wise of Denver Veterinary Specialists who was always there for us. Lori kept no office hours as far as Tess was concerned and after sharing this "labor of love" with her for all these years, we feel like she is a member of our family.

Tess was with us for almost 13 years and though her absence now leaves a huge void in our lives, we will always treasure the memories of our time with her.  Mia and Beastie are also feeling the loss and keep looking for Tess in her usual hiding places.  Eventually our sadness will ease but in the meantime, we take consolation in our belief that we did as much as we could for as long as we could. We fought the good fight and went down swinging.

Tess is waiting for us along with Rags, Kaiser, Mim, Nessa and Satin. What a reunion that will be!! Carl & Kathy

Tessa brought alot of love to my husband and I. We were luck to have her for 8 years.
She used to say "See ya later bird" to me each morning when I left for work.
Every night, before covering her for bed, we would sing Beddy time Birdie.

I miss her very much.

Sandie

Today was a sad day for us, we lost Tessa to a speeding motorist during the night. Tessa was born in the country and her mother was a wild stray. This made Tessa very special. She was strong and intelligent, although she was only small in stature. She liked to show off her talents when ever the opportunity arose, from leaping to the top of the trees, to opening windows when caught inside. She always knew when you were feeling lonely and in need of her company, yet she was independent when she knew you could cope without her. On cold winter nights you would find Tessa tucked up beside the kids and in the summer, taking a long drink from the fish tank. She was very black and a friend once accused me of being a witch (of the good variety) and Tessa my familiar, which in a way she was. I will miss you very much Tessa Bess, I have always felt there is a special bond between females of all kinds, and my heart will always carry that bond I have had with you.

Janet

Tessa was my sweet little bulldog and was the love of my life. Even though I rescued her when she was 7 mos. old and living in a car for 2 mos., I soon found out I needed her more than she needed me. She stole my heart right from the beginning, and was an instant little sister to my Irish Wolfhound. What a team they were. Within the first 15 minutes she was in the house, my wolfie had pulled out all of his toys and was dropping them in front of her. I was shocked to say the least since I didn't even think he knew where they were. But there he was going and finding all of his toys and plopping them down in front of her. Then he laid down and watched her play with them. She had him eating out of her paw. The only thing he didn't like is when she would use his tail as a chew toy. She would sneak up on him while he was sleeping and lay down by his tail looking at me with this glint in her eyes and a bit of a grin on her little funny face and slowly get his tail in her mouth and start chewing on it. He would wake up and grumble at her and when she still wouldn't stop he would get up and try to walk away with her still attached to his tail. Kind of reminded me of the elephants at the circus. I know he misses her as much as I do. I dream of her often and sometimes I think I hear her snoring and can feel her pushing her little butt up against me at night, only to wake up and find her not there. This is the worst heartache I have ever had to endure. She passed away with liver failure at the hospital. May God bless her sweet little soul and keep her safe and happy. Thank you for letting me share my story with you. What's left of my heart goes out to all who have lost a pet they loved. With all my love, Caryl (Tessa's mommie)

A good listener, a great talker.

Miss Thai, you were the sweetest kitty and I still miss your little soft paw on my face at night. We love you!

Ann and Brian Freiberger

Thea was one of my babies. I had 6 kitties until she passed on. I had raised her and her brother and sister since their birth. She was shot to death at around 9 AM on 4/27/01. Just that morning at around 6:30am, I had seen her washing herself on the bathroom toilet when I went in to take my shower. I came home from school and my father told me. We buried her in the shade of a tree. Thea had the prettiest meow. She used it at least one every 3 minutes. She loved to eat yet never gained a pound. She was allergic to fleas; I can still feel the bumps on her skin now more than three weeks after her death. I keep her with me at all times through her picture which I have in a locket around my neck. It still hurts so much. I would give anything to have her back. I hope she is in cat heaven looking over us, loving us, and meowing. I just hope she didn't suffer. I love you my Thea Mia. You'll always be in my heart.

My dear Beeper it has been four years since we parted, it seems like yesterday. You were a white ball of fluff when I brought you home and you quickly became the love of my life. You were my best friend and you ruled the roost.
When the day came to let you go we did it together just you and I, like we did everything from yard sales to band practice. You were the best poodle boy.
You human mom, see you on the BRIDGE.

The Boy was my best friend. He comforted me when I was sad and played with me when I was happy. No cat ever had a better life or was ever loved more. It was an honor to have him in my life for such a short time. He an I will be together again some day.

Jackie De Vries

He was my best friend.

Sarah Schumm

My Dominique rooster, 'The Hitman'. He was hatched around the frist of June last year and grew into a magnificent bird. He served and protected his hens against all comers from oppossum to cat. He disappeared from our barnyard today. He will be missed, he was a presence in our lives. He crowed for me the last time this morning, right outside my window.

Sue Ann Thornton

Madison - We had such a short time together, but you brought such happiness to our lives. Each day together I marveled at how much you loved life, and you brought a smile to my face every time I looked at you. That is to say, Maddie, that I smiled and laughed more with you in my life than I had in a long time. You changed our lives forever and we are better for it. There are no regrets and we are so happy for the time that we had with you. Hugs and kisses to you, Maddie, we'll see you on Toro Peak with Abby.

Joan & Ron Koptis

My friend and support..11 months later, I still weep.
I love and miss you

Heather

To The Unsinkable Titanic:
Your undying spirit will live on in my heart forever. Your remarkable presence stole my heart and soul, as you left a gigantic impression on me and all of our friends. You lifted me to new heights and opened my heart and eyes to a whole new world.
When I was with you, Titanic, my heart and soul were unbridled and my dreams took flight. I will love you forever and always. I will always know that you are my soul mate. I love you Mr. T!

Jennifer Torrence

My Tom dog, I love and miss you so very much. I know that you are in a better place now, pain free and happy. I want you to know that you are my very best friend and you gave me so much love, I can only hope that you know how much I love you. I hope you know just how special you are, how I will always remember what joy and comfort you brought to me. I will see you again Thomas - I love you!

Thomas was given to me to take care of because he was being abused and picked at by 2 peacocks. I enjoyed taking him from a battered, dirty animal to a beautiful, white 65 pound turkey!
He had a good life with me. We were friends. I couldn't help but get attached to him and he with me. Thomas was loveable, affectionate and sweet. He would 'strut' around showing off 'his stuff'! He was proud of his beauty and wanted everyone to see the new Thomas. We were even featured in the newspaper together at Thanksgiving!
He loved attention and if he didn't get any, he would come up behind me and nudge me with his beak! I loved him so much. My heart feels broken. I feel only God knows my relationship with my Thomas and my grief.
He had not been feeling well, so I gave him his injection and did his usual treatment. He started breathing heavily, but that is nothing new for turkeys or for Thomas. They are so genetically messed up as they are only bred for short-term life and slaughter.
Before I knew it, my Thomas left me. God put him out of his pain. I am still in shock; I really thought he was going to be okay and that he would be fine the next day like always. I see now that God gave him to me for a short time to make his last days happy, comfortable, and peaceful! He way ready to go to Rainbow Bridge; I wasn't ready to let him...
I kept believing that he would always be okay and that he would live long--because I wanted him to.
Thomasturkey, my dear sweet 'man', I love you so much and I thank-you for all the love that you shared so freely with me and the ducks and chickens.
You were kind to everyone!
I miss you so much that I don't know what to do when I peek out into the pasture and your beautiful white feathers are no longer strutting around.
I know you're at the bridge, and your legs aren't swollen anymore so you can walk as fast as you want!! 'My man', you can 'strut your stuff' for as long as you want and not get tired. Please go see my Tammyturkey for me, you will love her. Tell her that I love her so much and miss her too.
I look forward to the day that I walk over Rainbow Bridge to the Valley and wait for you and Tammyturkey to come 'flying' to me! Then we can go to heaven together.
Bye Thomas and Tammy. I'll always love you.
Mama

I found my Thomesina in the parking lot of my mother's apartment building on Thanksgiving day 1980. She was a starving kitten. I took her home with me and tried to find
her family. No luck.
I kept her and she became my baby and my comfort.
She would come to certain whistles and if I was upset about
something she would meow and comfort me.
She would dance with me, hind legs wrapped around me and paw on my shoulder and the other paw in my hand.
I loved her so. I had her for 20 years and the hardest decision was to have her put down. She had lost control of
her bladder and was in pain with arthritis. I could not let a good friend suffer. She was put to rest in my arms and I told her how much I loved her as she was getting the needle. I held her for about 1/2 hour after. I had her remains cremated for I wanted her with me always. I will never forget her and I miss her desperately. I find myself
calling her name when feeding time comes around for her
adopted cat brother and sister. They too, missed her. Looking around and hiding for awhile.
I love Thomesina and I hope to meet her again in the life hereafter so I can cuddle her. She loved to cuddled.
God bless you Thomesina. You were one in a million.
I will love and remember you forever.
Have fun in Rainbow bridge. Free from pain.

Till we meet again!!!
Your loving owner.

Marianne

To my best friend Thor...

I miss you like I have never missed someone before in my entire life. Without you, I would not be where I am today, the person I am today, and without you, our family, friends, and community will join me in feeling an empty void until we will be brought together again as the most awesome Leader Dog team known.

With never-ending tears of love for you,

Steve

TIL WE MEET AGAIN AT RAINBOW BRIDGE xxx

Marbeth Davison

To my baby,
I sit in front of this computer and my left foot reaches automatically to touch you, but you're not there. I can barely see the keyboard.

I love YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

I will miss you always....

Daddy

Last night I woke up, and saw a blue glow.
I didn't put my glasses on, I just got up and followed the blue glow.
It brought me into the living room, I got a foot away from it, and knelt down.
It was my angel Thor, already in his heavenly glow.
He said to take good care of his wife Stormy,
and take good care of his daughters Thunder and Lightning.
Thor said it would be alright it wasn't a mistake,
God had brought him up to be with a lonely child.
He said be happy I'll still be at the Rainbow Bridge for you.

Scott Moe

You will live forever in my heart--you can never be replaced--I miss you my friend.

Dearest Thor (Burger),
You made our lives so full with your endless energy, your silly floppy ear, your humorous "discussions" with us, your ear nibbling, and your devoted love for us. You are missed more than any words can ever say. Zeus is sad without you too - chasing the squirrels just isn't the same anymore! We are so sorry for any pain or suffering you went through but we know you are in a better place now - getting your belly scratched by an angel whenever you want! Now at least when we look up to the skies we know you are watching over us. Please take care my sweet angel puppy, you are in our hearts and our thoughts each and every day. We love you and miss you and will see you again someday.

Love, Hugs, and Treats,

Mom, Dad, & Zeus

Thor was a very special part of our family and will be deeply missed.

Blackford Family

Thor was a very special dog. We got him as a family pet when I was young. He always knew what mood I was in and was always there to help cheer me up. He was possibly the best friend I have ever had. He never talked to much ,but I'm a quiet guy so I didn't mind. He slept in my room almost every day of his life. He was diagnosed with cancer a while back. Today I took him to the vet to have him put to sleep. It's the hardest thing I have ever done. I hope some day he will forgive me for having him killed. I love him with every once of my soul. He wasn't just a dog he was a friend and a brother.

Todd Hammersmith

The sweetest of my four, ever at my side. The only one to want & demand being picked up. The most concerned when I behaved oddly (like doing exercises on the floor). The most trusting of all cats. Who will rasstle your sister now? Who will jump onto my back when I set down the food. Who will sit & listen to me play my hammered dulcimer? Perhaps from above she will know I will look for her when I cross over. How I wish that day was today. I will miss you forever, Three, my sweet, sweet kitty.

E. Gayle Shanley-Fitzsimmons

Thumber is the best rabbit I ever had he was my first pet that I had and he was mine. he died when I was gone on holidays if I could say anything to him it would be 'goodbye I love you'

Sheridan

We will always have a special place in our hearts for you. We were so proud of you. You were the sweetest pet one could have. We love you Thump.

The Lavanga's

Thunder Lee-Us cat, we will miss you forever. You suffered so much in your final days and now you are a peace. What a wonderful 11 years we had with you and you will forever be in our hearts...Love, Your Family, Mama, Daddy, and Steven

Thunder had a personality like no other.
I haven't been able to grieve for him until now. He was so precious to me. I miss him very much.

Stephanie Morris

Thunder The Wonder Bunny died tonight. I am heartbroken.. he was so young. We loved him very much. He was a sweet, loving soul.

Joanne & Jillian Donison

We all miss you dearly thunder. I wish you weren't in so much pain that you had to be put to sleep. Especially since you are so young. Only 6 years is not long enough.

Jannah, Melanie, Mommy, Daddy

You were a special little one and I miss u so much - the big pork chop

Barb Kwasny

My best angel, my boy. Too young to die. We miss you more than I can say, but we'll see you again.

The brightest star burns half as long.

Rachael Kelly

It is hard to imagine life with out you - never seeing your owl eyes or feeling your cold pink nose as you noisily demanded nightly treats. We had eight wonderful years together, but in a hundred more, I couldn't express how I love you and how much better you made my life. As an orphaned, 2 week old kitten, I knew you were special. Maybe it was the way you put your paws around my neck to give me hugs, or any of your numerous neurotic behaviors. We have a special bond even death can't break and as long as I live you will never be forgotten. I hope Kitty Heaven has a big kitchen table that overlooks the entire world where you can be king. WE LOVE YOU FOREVER THURSTON!!!

Jennifer and Jeremiah

Thurston, I miss you so much I can't bear it. I didn't know you were sick and wish I could have done something. Seeing you in pain and helpless broke my heart. I hope you know Craig and I were there with you and know how much we love our Mr. Bimble. You have been the leader of our pack for 6 years and we are lost without you. Chili P misses you terribly, every time the floor creaks, he thinks his big brother is coming home to him. Thank you for teaching him how to be a grown up kitty. I see you in every room and on every window sill. We never imagined life without you and are so lost. Please know that I loved you with all my heart and was so proud of you. You were a truly beautiful kitty and I will miss singing with you and holding you and watching you sleep. You had so many friends and were the ambassador to everyone who visited our home. I can't stand coming home and not seeing you at the front door, meowing to be carried upstairs. I'm so sorry I couldn't help you and take away your pain. We miss you so much beautiful little kitty. I hope you are in a warm sunbeam.
We love you.

Tia was the "nurse cat" who seemed to sense when someone wasn't feeling well, be they human or animal. Our hearts still ache for her.

Mary Paddock

Tia was just a little puppy and mom had trouble having her. She was having trouble nursing and finally passed away.

Tia gave special meaning to what a Bischon breed is, a "curly lap dog". Tia was the most loyal dog anyone could ever wish to have. I was blessed with having her for 17 years and even up until the end, she still knew me. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do was to make the call to have the vet come to my home and put her down, but I know she is in a better place and playing with her Siberian Husky sister, Chelsea, who left us 2 years ago. My heart aches for my loss and I never thought I could miss an animal so much. I wonder how I will ever get over this, but everyone has told me that it just takes time. This dog was my first "baby" and was older than my own children. My heart is broken with the loss of this dog and I will never forget her.

Jeannie Berens

Dearest Tia - Mommy's girl; It's been a year since we said good bye and still we miss you as much as ever. Home is not the same without you. You will always be in our hearts.

We will always miss you and love you.

Mom, Dad and Shakespeare

It 's been a bit over four years since I rescued her for my wife from a local shelter that I had driven by thousands of times. My wife (then fiancée') had recently lost her cat to possible coyotes and I thought that this might cheer her up. I went into the cat room in the shelter and if I didn't close the door, as I'm sure that a lot of people hadn't , she never would have entered our lives. Yet behind the door all caged up and alone was Tiamo (as I named her), a black Himalayan mix only a few months old. She looked at me and just wisped out a cry. When I say wisped she had this very low almost unvocal meow/cry, done more with her breath. Looking at me I had to take her out and hold her, nothing ever felt so good and right in all my life. She smelled as you would expect, yet my heart was filled with joy as I couldn't wait to get her out of there and home to her to be mom.
She cried all the way home in my truck as I pet her little head to hopefully calm her nerves. All kinds of thoughts went through my mind on that ride like the fact of knowing that she was such a prize, how my wife would feel and most of all that I saved a life that may have otherwise been forgotten.
I vaguely remember what happened and who I saw first when I showed up at my fiancée's house. I remember her dad mumbling something about not needing another cat to add to the three remaining. Deep down he's a sucker and lover of cat's like the rest of us. I do remember my wife's eyes lighting up like a childs at Christmas as she picked her up out of the box. She said she's so cute, where did you get her and so on... My heart was twice full of joy in one day as I saw a life long bond be born.
Tiamo (aka bebe) would stick to my fiancée' like glue, inseparable. She would sit on the back of her chair as she worked on the pc, try to sleep in her room at night and follow her around day and night. The other cat's would get along with her, yet I'm sure that they saw that she was treated a little different. She was brushed and pampered daily and returned that love back to my fiancée' who loved her like a daughter. Not me on the other hand, she would hate when I came over, because she knew that I was there to take her mom out. So it went until we got married and my wife moved out. It was hard for us yet we had to leave her there with her brother and sisters and the woods behind the house where she'd play.
Every Friday night it became a family past time to go to my in-laws and have dinner with the rest of the family. She'd meet us in the driveway when we came over around 7:00 and my wife would carry her in the house. Little by little Tiamo and I would get along and bond closer and closer as I reminded her that I was the one that saved her life. She accepted because I would also bring her mom back at least once a week and would spend some time together and be once again pampered. So she was then on happy to see me. I played with her away from the kids and family, sometimes with my wife and sometimes alone. Alone of course meant the most to me because of not getting the love back that I was trying to put in for so long. How happy she was. I looked so forward to that treat every week, just to make sure she was ok. I know that she felt secure; when we went over, my in-laws would comment on the way that Tiamo changed the minute we walked in the door. We'd give her some of the food that we had for dinner and then would begin the pampering and playing. She'd look up at me if I'd stop petting and wisp meow of hers, so I'd flip her over and start on the other side until I would either start playing or she'd start cleaning. My wife's family must have thought I was nuts.
This past Friday night began like any other until we showed up in front of my in-laws house. We saw a car stopped on the side of the road and I asked what's that and pointed, my wife told me... There lying on the street was my heart, my love of Fridays...Tiamo...which means "I love you". All my fears of something bad happening to her. I was so sad and so mad. I told my wife to go get a box. I told the people that hit her and gratefully stopped, to leave. They said they felt terrible. I said, "thanks now leave". My father-in-law told the man that she was like a family member as he knelt next to me, touched her and said, oh Tiamo.
When my wife returned a few seconds later as I was petting Tiamo; I could see how she felt as I saw her lip curled up, I then began to sob. I'm a 38 year old male on my knees picking up a lifeless body of something so precious that touched me only as much as a family member would. I put her soft beautiful body in the box, we got back in my Jeep and drove home. I couldn't stop thinking how happy she probably was that it was Friday, as I'm sure she knew for the fact of other family showing up before us. I was crying so hard and saying, "poor Tiamo, poor Tiamo, oh Tiamo".
It could only have happened a few minutes before we got there. There was no blood and gore as you would expect and also no heartbeat or breath. That night we cried and I dug a deep hole in my backyard, pet her and cried some more. We wrapped her in a soft blanket, prayed, put a rose on top of her and covered her up. She was so soft and beautiful, yet heartbreaking to think of the fact that she was gone. She finally loved me as I always wanted. I'll miss her dearly.
Less than a week has passed and I still well up with tears. I know the hurt will subside and the happy memories will become clear... in do time. Thanks Tiamo for filling our hearts with love. I would do it all over again to save you.
See you on the other side bebe.
Tiamo, mamma and baba

Our source of unquestioned love.
Only asked for love in return.

Duwayne & Mary Ann

Ticker
(July 17,1990 - august 2,2001)

I have a dog whose name is Ticker,
For the past 11 years our love grows thicker.
This wonderful animal full of life and joy --
Innocence and loyalty makes him our boy.

His eyes are loving, his nose is wet,
To our family, he is more than a pet.
He goes out of his way to be loving and kind,
To all of us he brings peace of mind.

For eleven great years, he's been full of spunk,
Black and white markings, but not a skunk.
Just this spring he has lost his zip,
He's slow to move in his right rear hip.

He's been a best friend to our family,
A terrific addition to our family tree.
I'm very proud to have written this poem,
Before God has a chance to call him home.

(I wrote this for an spca poetry contest in "be kind to animals week" - it won 1st place)

- Robert Vautour

Tickles it will never be the same without you. Love you sweetie.

Liz

Tick Tock came to me when he was 11 months old. He had been abused by his original owner. He had the saddest little face but he had a happy heart. In spite of his early life, he loved all people and animals. He was a kind and gentle soul and his brother, sister and I will miss him so very much. We love you Ticky!

Susan E. Hebert

Even though we've only known you a few months in this life, you will be missed greatly in our little zoo.

Until we meet again, rest in peace, little one.
You will not be alone.

We miss you.

"More precious than gold..." Tiffany opened my eyes and heart to love stronger than I ever thought possible. I don't understand why God only let us share such a short time together, but I beg and pray that my little angel will be waiting at the bridge for me!

David Lee

Tiffany, 2lb. 13 oz. my little girl. It was May 15 1988.You looked at me , you barked with a smile on you little face. One look at you and not thinking it twice you came into my arms for me to love. You did all things that puppies do and grew to be a beautiful little girl never weighing more then 3 lbs. You follow me where ever I went, you needed help to get on yours and my bed. You depended on me and I on you. 13 years 5 month 10 days went by as fast as a wink. My arms are empty, my thoughts constantly with you. My heart in pain, my eyes with tears. I MISS YOU SO;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Alicia Digiacomo

TIFFANY, It was MAY 14, 1988. You looked at me and I at you. You wiggled and barked with a smile on your tinny face. One look at you, she is mine, and not thinking it twice you came into my heart and arms for me to love you. You did everything puppies do, played, run, chew and how you loved to bark. You grew to be a beautiful little girl never weighing more than three lbs. You followed me like my own shadow. You needed help to get on our bed, yours and mine. Before we said goodnight you had to have your last drink of water. You loved me just as I am, you gave me unconditional love. You depended on me and I on you. you are my little girl. I trusted your Doctor and I was wrong. HE said go home pick her up at two. I sat by the phone, I called twice, she is resting comfortably. Third time I called, you could not wait anymore for me to come to you. My PAIN, I was not holding you when you needed me the most My eyes with tears my heart in pain. I know we will be together again. PLEASE WAIT FOR ME.

Tiffany was not only my best friend, she was my baby. I loved her deeply and will always love her. She had the sweetest disposition and the prettiest face; everyone who met her loved her. I believe she actually smiled when she entered a room. Many days towards the end, I would let her sleep in and she'd come into my office late morning smiling and wagging her tail. I could almost hear her say, "Good Morning, Mom! Thanks for letting me sleep late." And when I would reach down to kiss her, I could hear her say, "I love you, Mom." I miss her so--I miss her big brown trusting eyes; I miss her snuggling next to me at night; I miss her happy greeting; I miss her kissing my nose; I miss her eating her dinner from my fingers; I miss her being "Sergeant Tiffany" and putting the cats in their place; but most of all, I miss her unconditional love.

Patti Carey

Tiffy, my best friend, my confidant and always my comfort in my time of need. Thank you my little Tiffy for loving me all these years even when I was not worthy of your unconditional love. You have been with us for 15 years now and it is so difficult to let you go. You have always been there for me when others weren't, listening patiently, and you know many things others will never know. I will miss you curled up at our feet in our bed each night and morning. I will miss you terribly my little friend and you are the "Best Doggie" as our little Mckenzie would say..I know she will miss you so too. Be at peace and suffer no more. I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! No pet can ever replace you...you are the BEST! I will miss your sweet face and trusting eyes. I pray I am doing right by you and please forgive me if I am not. Enjoy Rainbow Bridge my dear friend and I will see you there and we will meet Jesus together.
I love you, Tiffy and good bye for now. Your Mama, Debra

My beautiful girl was my best friend for 19 years -- literally half of my life. Tiff had a wonderful personality, was affectionate and playful until our final hours. My heart aches and I miss her tremendously. Her presence is forever in my heart - and I am comforted by having her wonderful spirit with me everywhere I go. My sweet little angel is in heaven now and I see her in my mind. I picture her in health, with her tail wagging, her little doggie smile and bright brown eyes. Tiffy I love you and will never forget you. I will honor your memory by doing good things in your name. I love you my little girl. Until we meet again, Love Mommy.....

I will miss you and never forget you. You will never have pain or ever suffer again. Wait for me at the bridge. I love you always.

Sheila Cook

Tiffany,
The first time we met you were the cutest little fuzzball, not knowing you were heaven sent, so God changed your life around and you would have made anyone proud. You barked and snapped as people walked by, only to protect the things you had. We all saw the love God had for you, so God said I know I'll make her to be my Kingdom Dog. Never realized you were on a journey as the years went by to let people know you were headed for your home in the sky. Tiffany, when you see Lady tell her we said hi, she was so much like you, who loved the Lord and who had a home in the sky you both keep a warm place in your heart and although you both are missed their will never be another to take your place until we all meet face to face, all our love to Tiffany & Lady, who are the best of friends & God sent. Love from God's family.
P.S. We miss your bark & I miss talking to you. Rev. Betty Angelo (mom)

Tiffany you will always be in our hearts. We Love you and miss you very much. Someday we will be together forever.

Fred, Lisa, Steve and Nick

She was the most giving cat I've ever known. She was my surrogate baby for we can't have children. I called her my "Tiffybear" for she was as cuddly as a plush teddybear. She's not in pain now. But I miss her so.

Tim and Kelly Skinner

I miss you so much, Tiffany. Life is just not the same without you. You are, and always will be, close in my heart. Thank you for all the love you gave me over the years. I love you. Someday we will have "quality time" again just like we did every night.

Nancy Capocy

You left quietly while I was gone. Your human mother was with you and gave you what comfort she could. There was no more that we could do for you other than relieve your suffering. I think you knew that and went peacefully to await our coming to the Rainbow Bridge. You left a large hole in both our hearts and you are still sadly missed.

Joe Endinger

I'll always remember your sweet beautiful brown eyes and your squeel when I came home. I wish I could continue to mop up your puddles of "joy pee." But I'm glad that your are no longer suffering. While I don't believe in heaven or hell, I hope that some day our spirits will meet again.

Sylvia

My beloved Tiffy, who gave me as much love as any human ever could. I will miss her dearly. She will be in my heart forever. I love you, Tiffy!

Betty Jean

Tiger, I will always love you. Please know that, as much as I love Kitty and Kadie with all my heart, that will never diminish what I also felt and still feel for you. You were a special boy; you were and still are my son, no matter what anyone wants to say about your "just" being a cat. You were never "just" anything to me; you kept me going when I didn't think I could get through another day. You were my life. Remember that day, at the pet store, when we first met eyes? You were chewing on another kitten's ears and I was there just to buy crickets for GR; I knew you needed to come home with me. I was just a child back then, but I mustered up all the money I had and begged my mom to let me take you home. I remember our bond was immediate. Remember how you used to bring me leaves instead of dead animals, how proud you always were of them? I would press them, but my mom would always come up behind me and throw them away. She didn't understand. I remember the unique softness to your fur, how you would spend so much time on my shoulder; I remember those wonderful hugs you gave me. I remember your amazing heart, how loving and sensitive you always were. I remember how you learned how to say "momma," and how you would cry if my dad put you outside, because you just wanted to be with me. I felt the same. You had magic in you; you were special. Please forgive me for leaving you with my mom and dad when I had to go away. I know I never got to say goodbye, and it eats at me to this day. I miss you so much. Please don't be jealous of Kitty and Kadie; they're your brother and sister, even though you never got to meet them. They would have loved you just as much as I do, I know that from the bottom of my heart. Please don't ever forget me, as I will never ever forget you. I wish we could have had one lost hug. I wish I had never left you; I'll always regret that I did. I love you so much. Momma

Tiger was the first cat in our family, and he lived up to his name. He was feisty and kinda fat, very loveable. He has probably spent the last 30 years eating away, the little bugger. Tiger will come up for air again when his heart next tugs him toward Rainbow Bridge. xxxoooxxxoooxxx

Tiger -- You gave us such joy the 13 years you shared your life with us. You will live in our hearts forever. You were a brave cat, never once complaining of the daily insulin shots you had to have over these past 3 years. Your rumbling purr while being our lap cat at night will be forever remember. God speed your sweet little soul to him. We know you will be waiting for us. We will see you again at heaven's gates. We love you and will never forget you.
Love always and a big hug - Fran, Bob, Heather, and Jon

The pawprints that he left on my heart will never be forgotten. We'll meet again someday over the rainbow.

Godspeed, my beloved Tiger. You're the sweetest creature I've ever known.
Thanks for a dozen years of constant companionship and boundless love.
You will always live in my heart -- Mom

I had Tiger since before her eyes and ears opened--her mother disappeared when her litter was in the basement of a friend's house. I agreed to take her and her brother before I even knew just how young they were. She (and her brother Angel) were my first cats. I took them to the vet, who showed me how to feed them and help them go to the bathroom, the way their mother would have. It was all very daunting, but I was willing to take on the task. The doctor had serious doubts they would survive since they'd been separated from their mother at such an early stage. I loved them and was ready to put every effort into helping them.

Well, they did survive, and they thrived, becoming healthy loving pets. Angel, a beautiful all white cat with amber eyes, did two years ago very suddenly after a blood clot moved to his heart. Tiger stayed with us until this past early Monday morning.

The time we had with her was a wonderful gift, she was so intelligent, so comforting. She slept with us, ate when we ate. I can't put into words how much she'll be missed by both me and Robert. We buried her yesterday next to her brother with her smiley face water bowl and her toy mouse. We kept her favorite toy, a little ball. I just feel as if I could talk about her forever--all the incredible memories I have of her. I miss you, Tiger! Love, Mom & Dad

I love you very much Tigger. I will miss you very much--you have been such a special part of my life. I am glad you have finally found your peace. I hope you have found lots of friends to keep you company over the bridge and play with you until we meet again.

Dawn

A beautiful and spirited cat, his life taken too soon. Thanks for being a part of our family, Tiger. We will all miss you.

Tiger, the calm runt of a small litter of hamsters at PetSmart, broke the young hearts of his devoted owners who had only bought him two days ago. While he was around he brought laughs and smiles. We will never forget him. I hope he can joy his many hamster friends at Rainbow Bridge.

Tiger came to me when I least expected on a rainy August day in 1999. He was behind a fence of an old closed down factory building. He was cold and hungry. When I lifted him in my arms that day, I felt a happiness that I have never known. In just one year and 2 months, he became my best friend. We did everything together. He even sang with me. He gave me a love that no one else could ever duplicate. Tragically, he was hit by a car and killed in front of me on November 15, 2000. This has broken my heart into a million pieces because the love that I felt for him (and still do) is like no other. He was such a happy dog. He even knew how to smile he was so happy. And he made my family happier than we could have ever imagined. He was a loyal, funny, loving , extremely intelligent, protective, beautiful and unique little guy. He had the very special quality of patience like you would not believe. I loved him with all of my heart and he loved me back. Anyone who ever met Tiger, even if only once, never forgot him. He had that way about him. He was just so special and he had such a great personality. He was perfect and I am absolutely convinced that he is an angel. There is no way in this world that anyone would abandon him or lose him and not look high and low for this dog. He was just too good. Tiger inspired our family to help animals in need all over. He was always a lover and protector of babies and so his work here on earth will continue. We believe that he has led us to other animals who needed help as part of his mission. We decided to hold a fundraiser in honor of our friend in order to help save these animals in need. Raising over $2,000 he has already saved the lives of 3 dogs, a cat and counting. We are so proud of our baby.
Tiger, I love you and miss you with all of my heart and I think about you each and every day that goes by. You are the best dollie and I know there will come a day when we will meet again. God Bless your heart and soul and may you have lots of everything that you love and that you so much deserve. Thank-you for always being my best, perfect friend. I am blessed to know that an angel has touched my life forever. I love you and look forward to the day we reunite and cross the rainbow bridge together! Your mommy, Rhonda Feniolo

I lost my beloved Tigger on December 8, 2001. I was fortunate to have this wonderful little cat in my life who gave me unconditional love for 18 wonderful years. The loss is unbearable and the pain I'm in is like no other. Fortunately, I was with him when he left and just before he slipped away he gave me a few of his winks and I noticed tears in his eyes. In his own way, he also knew it was his time and his way of telling me how much he loved me. I will never forget his precious little gift and I will never forget my beloved Tigger.

Wherever you are sweetie, mommy and Tayga love you dearly and miss you terribly. You are in our hearts forever and always my precious and beloved Tigger.

Love,

Mommy and Tayga

Tigger was our first ferret along with his sister, Winnie. Three years later they were joined by Jasper, Pepper (his best buddy) and Mittens. Pepper passed away 12/14/99 and we miss her very much. He is now survived by Winnie, Jasper and Mittens who we know will surely miss his presence. He was such a gentle and playful boy and loved to pick us up by our finger and "put us away". We will never forget all the wonderful things like that he did to cheer us up. Our lives will not be the same without him. We love and miss you our little angel. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. Until we all meet again someday.

Nicola and Matt

It will be a month on November 19 since we lost our beloved cat Tigger, who was 17 years old. We had her since she was a kitten and we are devastated by our loss, particularly me, because she was my first pet. We loved having her with us all the time, so we usually took her with us when we went to our condo in the mountains. On October 19, we were driving to our condo with her when we hit black ice and went off the road. During or after the accident, she escaped from the car through a broken window and we have not seen her since. She was an old lady but still looked and sounded like a kitten and was the heart of our home. She loved coconut macaroons and raisins, chicken and salmon, laps and watching birds, and sleeping on my pillow. She was always with one of the two of us, or placed herself right in between us if we were in different areas of the house. She had an incredible purr and purred most of the time. She was a house cat who wanted to be an outdoor cat--her only opportunities were short walks with us, or trips out to the secure balcony of our mountain condo, which is why, in spite of hating to be in the car, she loved to be there with all the birds to watch and grasshoppers to chase. The hardest parts are not knowing for sure what happened to her, and not being able to say goodbye to her. I still think I see her in her sheepskin hammock in the window whenever I walk past that room. It is so hard to see other cats--today I was at a meeting and saw another cat named Tigger, which has caused me to spend more time than usual today thinking about our pretty girl. We have such wonderful memories of her habits and characteristics and it is so hard to be without her and to have no one greet you at the door when you come into the house. We love and miss her so much and pray that she is at the Rainbow Bridge with lots of toys and friends and things to hunt and chase, and that she has found my mother in heaven, who also loved her. Wherever she is I hope she forgives me for not being there for her at the end, and knows just how much she was loved and cherished. When I am able I will do a photo memory book of her--strangely enough this past summer I took the camera out a few times when we went for walks, and I have some wonderful pictures. Tigger, I was blessed to have known you and my life was so much more full because you were in it. We love you always.

Jane and Doug

Loving Christmas wishes to our Tigger, who we pray is watching us from the Rainbow Bridge as we try to cope with our first Christmas in many years without her. As we pass by the place of her loss on Sunday, our hearts will turn to her, as they do so often at all hours of the day and night, and we will think of her with loving hearts. Tigger, you are loved and missed so much by us both and we wish with all our hearts that we had not lost you. I still go each week to the Humane Society to see if by chance someone has found you and has tried to return you to us. Though you are physically gone from us, you will live forever in our hearts and in our thoughts. We hope that you are at the Rainbow Bridge, watching the snow, chasing the birds, eating your favorite foods, chasing foil balls and feeling well again. Our blessings and love to you. Doug and Jane

Sweet, precious little buddy, fought so long and so bravely, but always had the energy to love his human Mommy, who raised him and weaned him after he lost his real Mommy. I will miss your love and kitty kisses Tiggy.

Sharon Borden

I would like my cat Tigger to be remembered. He was hit yesterday in a hit and run. He was the perfect cat and I will miss him terribly each and every day.

Thanks.

Janet Spann

To my friend Tigger: Thank you for freely giving your love to me. Your were the sweetest cat and I loved you, everyone loved you. We will all miss you dearly. On a Christmas Eve, years ago, You were a gift from God when my other cat was dying. I will treasure your memory always.

A.G.

To our wonderful and loving Tigger. You fought up to the end....may you continue on to a better place , where you cannot suffer anymore.

Love always,
Hilary and Jeff

"Mom" was my love and my life for 18 years, She loved me without question and I loved her without question. She watched over me at nite and woke me in the morning with her loving nugdes when I was sleeping late. I will miss her always but take comfort in the fact that she is in a better place now. There will always be an empty place in my heart that she once filled. I await the time when we will be united again for ever...... I love you "Mom" and miss you...

Robert Childs

My kittie was the greatest cat that ever lived. He was so special to me and my family. Tigger if your reading this I love you lil buddy and hope to see you in heaven when I die. Love Molli

Tigger was put to rest last Monday after a 10 month battle with kidney failure. I miss his face greeting me every day and the feel of his beautiful soft fur. He was my best friend. I will light several candles in his honor. It's nice to know I am not alone.. Thank you...

Cathy Lafata-Devlin

I would like to say that Tigger (a/k/a pumpkin) was the best. He had a way about him. He passed away on 7/12/01. The day I thought I was bringing him home from the vets was the day he died. I know he's in a better place and I will miss his cute face so much. I'll miss the way he use to eat Nutter Butter cookies. They were one of his favorites. I miss the way he use to sit on my lap and give me a soft meow. I couldn't have asked for a better friend....a better cat...he truly is missed .

You were a very special part of our family and we have missed you so much. I know that one we will all meet again and be a whole family again....I will bring with me your Nutter Butter cookies... Until we see each other again we love you...love, Mommy, Daddy, Mikey and Kaity.

Dear Friends and Family - With broken hearts, we announce the death of Tigger on Tuesday June 19th. After only 4 years, Tigger was unexpectedly and tragically killed after escaping from our home. An inside cat by our choice, but an outside cat by his nature, Tigger always loved to dive out the door (or up through a skylight) to play outside. We are devastated by the loss of our unique and very special little cat.

All who have had an incredible animal that touched your heart will understand our loss. Tigger was unusually intelligent and affectionate. We will miss Tigger’s gregarious and loving nature that charmed all visitors to our home. We will miss playing fetch and hide and seek with him. We will miss the way he would put his paws on our legs and with a sleepy meow ask to be picked up. We will miss the way he would play in the water in the sink, and stack all his toys by his water dish just like a golden retriever. We will miss this compassionate cat that never bit, but licked affectionately with his sand paper tongue. We will miss how he would pull in his claws to thump the puppy’s melon when she misbehaved, and grab a hand, foot or head so that he could clean it. We will miss how he loved to sleep in the sun with a smile on his face. He was 50% pup, 50% cat, and pure love in a little beige-orange fur coat.

We hope everyone has a chance to care for an animal this special.

Kathleen Urbanic and Ted Barber

Tigger, you are my best friend, my confidant, and best running buddy ever. Every morning I wake to such a quiet world without you barking at the early morning walkers. I know you will be there at the bridge waiting for me, but until then I miss you so. Love always, Mom

Tigger was the best dog ever - a gentle friend, a protector of all in our home and a free spirit. Tigger went on one of her "digging" adventures and never made it home. She died from seemingly natural causes on her way home from digging in some dirt or stump in the woods. She was found in the woods - her favorite place. We knew something was wrong when she did not come back home at lunch for her treat after my husband had mowed the pasture. She will always be our guardian angel - now it will be in spirit. We will miss you terribly Tigger. Enjoy your new adventures. Please know you will always be in our hearts- and we are forever grateful for the love you gave our family. You were a special part of our family.

Shari and John Spokes

My dearest boy, you came into our lives as a little red ball of silky fur, green eyes, bushy tail and a tall order of mischief. And you became the master of us all. You captured our hearts and souls in ways unknown before and in return we loved so ! Tigger, Tigris my love, there are no words enough to honor you and your love for us !You were my perfect child, my buddy, my best friend, my " driving assistant" ( remember how you loved the car trips " counting the cars on the highways " ) my partner in "crime" ( mischief )
You brought us that special unconditional love and immense joy every single minute of your life ! You were that exceptional and unique soul touching one's life just ONCE in a lifetime !We hoped to climb a mountain of hope in those three years of your illness and we are now in a ocean of sorrow, pain and tears !
May you rest in peace and our love will always be with you and watching over you !
Mom, Dad and Bogdan

Our special jumpy boy. We miss your sweet songs. We miss snuggle time, play time, kisses, catnip time, and chase Tigger game. Baby misses you too. The house is so empty and quiet without you. Please wait for mommy and daddy, and be a good boy. We love you Tigger, singer of songs.

Bill and Kathy Black

Tigger was a love.

Judy Steer

Our Tigger-belle was so loved. It broke our hearts to see her suffer. On Saturday we let her go- no more pain, no suffering, just peace for her. We, who remain, grieve for the loss of a wonderful friend. She was such a part of our family. We miss her dearly and will always remember her...

Troy and Heather Starling

Tigger,
We miss you so much. There is a hole in our lives without you. We had to give you to heaven so you could leave the pain behind and live in peace again. We love you Tig Tig and we will always remember you.
Momma, Pappa and Pepper.

You hung onto life to the end. We Love you so dearly and you are missed greatly every day. You now are in Heaven with the Holy Father, and I am pleased that you will no longer suffer in pain and in Sickness. We Love you TIGRA

Fox, you are a champion in my eyes. You taught me new things not just about riding but about life. Thank you for your loyalty and love.

Jane Keith

You gave me your last Tika, Tika, HI, at dinner last night.
I only hope that no matter where I end up, that when it's my time to join you, you'll be waiting. God knows I'll miss you, just as much as the others, but, my love please wait for me, I promise to keep you close in my heart until the day we see each other again. Sleep well, and sleep warm, good night, Tik,Tik.

Dear Tiki Bell, You were and always will be my best friend. Our special connection will never be forgotten. How you always knew how I felt and would comfort me whenever I felt bad. You offered unconditional love in any situation and protected and saved me on many occasions. I owe you all that I am or ever will be but I no longer know how to repay that debt. You went from your happy tail wagging self to death in only a matter of hours and I shall never know why this happened. Even driving you to the vet at 115mph in my mothers minivan wasn't enough to save you. I don't know how I can continue on but I will try. Thank you Tiki. I will love you forever and will meet you on rainbow bridge.

Tyler Backman

Tiki, it has been only yesterday since I received that phone call that changed my life. I thought when the vet. would call that he would tell me that you could come home, I cannot tell you how devastated I was to find out that you had passed away earlier that morning. I am still in denial and shock. I just can NOT believe that you are gone. I know the vet. said that the operation you had last month had nothing to do with your passing, but I believe that you little body just couldn't handle it. Oh Tiki, I love you so much. I always sang you "your" song about how much I loved you and how you could never even imagine how much. Tiki, my love is as strong for you today just like the 9 wonderful years that you have brought to my life. Tiki, how can I go to sleep knowing that your space next to mine will be empty? How can I wake up knowing you will not be waking with me? How can I deal knowing that I will never hear you purr again, see you happy when you heard that can of food open, and kiss you on you little nose and mouth? Tiki, I always believe that you would live to be 18, 19 or 20. I truely believed that and I cannot accept that you won't . I wish that you could tell me how to help your brothers Kiwi and Rio deal with this. They miss you so much. It was wonderful for me to be able to bring you home from the vet and hold you and cuddle you before we laid you to rest. I wish that I could have been there when you passed away so you could have felt safe in your Mommy's arms. Tiki, I miss you so much and I know that you are not physically here, but this will always be your home. Tikibird, how did this happen? I just cannot believe this, I love you and you are deeply missed. Rest in peace baby. You are no longer in pain. I love you so much. Thank you for bringing so much joy into my life.

"Tiki, you are my precious little miracle kitty. You will always be in my heart. I love you and I miss you so much. But I know you are happy where you are free to play and run in the sunshine. I love you, Tiki."

I lost my little granny girl named "Tillie" last September. We had 19 wonderful years together. I'm 30 so she went though some tough times as well as happy. 2 husbands and 3 children and lots of other animals as playmates to keep her busy. Well she kept them in line. From the beginning to the end she would go through the house yelling to ensure she found everyone safe in for the night. I hated that yelling then but miss it now.
I miss my girl and will keep her always in my thoughts.
To share the love of a devoted pet is uncomprehensive unless you too have been there.
Thanks to all for this site.

" I saw the Lord always before me,
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will live in hope,
because you will not abandon me to the grave,
nor will you let your Holy One see decay.
You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence."
Acts 2:25
Nancy Tomlin

The most loving, obedient, special boy ever.

Debbie Emery

To our Precious Timeka. Baby Girl, we miss you so very much. You gave us 15 years of Love and Devotion. It was so hard to let you go. The Lord was calling you home and we felt we could not hold you back. Now, you are our guardian angel. Our hearts are breaking and we have cried so many tears for you. Oh, how we wish we could hold and kiss you just one more time. But until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge, we will treasure every memory and picture of you. All our Love to you , our sweet " Baby Lovings" Love, Momma, Daddy, and all your Family Brother Hopsingh (Chinese Pug)

To a special friend who always kept me warm, loved and safe. Timer and his "Daddy" were just two "street thugs" hanging on to each other for 22 years, in hard times and wonderful glory days. Until we meet again, My Big sweet friend, you are missed terribly but your memories keep us warm and smiling.
Daddy- Elie Levy, California

Timmi, I will always miss you and love you. I thank God each day for the time that we spent together. You will be in my heart forever.

Timmy, we miss you so much. Our special boy. We will never forget you. Love, Al, Barb, Lucy, Timmy2, and Tommy.

Timmy was awesome. I'm an abuse survivor, and Timmy, of all the furbabies I've known and even people I've known, was the only one who ever made me feel like I mattered, and that someone cared. Cats are supposed to be aloof, but not my Timmy. I hand-raised him from the age of about 3 days, and he was my baby. There was a special bond between us. I really miss him.

Skyla

I miss you my little furry angel, I used to call you angelfur and didn't know how soon you'd leave us. Timmy was only 5 1/2 years old, when he died suddenly on Monday. He took a big piece of my heart with him, I hope he is in a better place and I will miss him always.

Anja and John

It's only been 3 weeks and we miss him so much. From the moment we woke, to the time we retired, he was with us every step of the way. Timmy persevered with poor eyesight, less than perfect hearing and a slowed step but he never let it get him down! He touched our lives in a way I can't even put into words. He will always be in our hearts and on our minds. We Love You Buddy!! Mommy and Daddy

Mark & Karen

My special Timmy. God how I miss you! You were taken from us after 2 years and 8 months of since you were born.
You will always be in my heart until we will be re-united at the bridge.
I love you my dearest Timmy....I'll never forget you!

KC

Timon was the light of our life and will never be forgotten. We know she watches over us now and is her sister Pumba's guardian angel.

Until we meet again at Rainbow Bridge

Paul Rockett

My dear Mr. Tim passed just two days ago and it seems like just a few moments ago yet I miss him so much. He was such a sweet little guy who was so loving and never mean. He was only four years old and much too young to die of kidney failure but he is gone now. I know it is only with the belief of the Rainbow Bridge that I manage to keep hold of my emotions. I truly believe I will meet with my Timothy when it is our day to unite with him on that wonderful bridge. I know I will have many many kisses stored up for his soft fur and he will once again hug my arms as I hold him.

Timothy was the most loyal and faithful cat that ever lived. He loved me more than I could ever imagine being loved. He was with me through so many stages of my life - the good times and bad times. He always loved me unconditionally and never cared for anyone else being around him or touching him. The last year and a half he had been fighting diabetes and I gave him two shots a day of insulin. He took it like a champ and really seemed to have conquered it until recently everything seemed to go wrong at once. He didn't seem to need insulin anymore and had a seizure from having too low of blood sugar then he quit eating and all of a sudden couldn't walk hardly at all. His tests showed kidney failure, pancreas failure and was indicative of cancer somewhere in his old body. The vet said even aggressive treatment would only get him a few weeks and that it would not be a good few weeks for him. I made the decision to let him go and held him as he left here, but now I am consumed with guilt that I did not let him have one last night sleeping with me as he always did and that he had to be at the place he hated the most - the vet. I was there with him, but feel I somehow let him down. I am so sad and lonely for him now that I can hardly stand it. My 8-year old daughter blames me that he is no longer here and even though I know better - it bothers me. I wanted to make this tribute to the most special cat that I will ever know. I feel so honored that he chose me to adore and I really pray we are reunited someday at the Rainbow Bridge or wherever God chooses. He was so woven into the fabric of my life that living right now is so very painful - every place at my home has a memory of Tim . What a very regal, special, remarkable cat you were. I miss you so much Tim. I love you - MOM

To my sweet Tina,
You loved unconditionally and were unconditionally loved. May I carry the lessons of joy, love and happiness that you taught me through my life until we're reunited.
You are gone, but you will never be forgotten by those who loved you. I'll miss you my sweet golden furry baby.

Marcia Wisgirda

She was the best friend I ever had ....miss you so soon tina x

Vas a estar siempre en nuestros corazones.

Maria Alejandra Torres

Tina was a very special dog. She had provided companionship and friendship to both sets of my grandparents, and was a living link to them for me. Tina was fun, ebullient, loved to chase her "baby" and go for walks and drives. She will be greatly missed and grieved. We will always think fondly of her. We know she is in Heaven basking in the love of Grandma and Grandpa Weeks and Grandma Erickson. Tina, you enjoy yourself! We love you very much.

You will live forever in my heart

Jenny

Tinker was the light of my life. She gave me so much! She was the best friend that I have ever had and I can't describe how much she will be missed. She was funny, sweet, loving, devoted, and very precious. Even at her age, with kidney failure, and arthritic hips, she was still playing with her toys. She went quickly, mercifully, but I can't wait for the day when we will be together and never be separated again. I will always love her and she will always be in my heart!

Patricia Huff

My Dearest Tinker,
I miss your need of constant attention, your cuddling, your voice. You were my best friend. I will never forget how you would comfort me when I cried, brushing up against my face and licking away my tears. And when I was pregnant, how you protected me. I am sorry that you never got to meet your sister, she was born 3 days after you passed away. Please forgive me for not detecting your kidney failure sooner. I am so sorry you had to suffer. No matter how much time passes, you will be close to my heart forever. I love you. p.s. Cocoa misses you an awful lot, but we have a feeling she too will be with you soon. Her breathing is getting worse. anyway....

Love,
Mommy, Daddy, Cocoa, & Kyra

Her name was Tinker but we usually called her Tink.
We got her when she was 8 weeks old and she was a handful. She would jump on the highest places that she could find.

Tink was always gentle and loving. She would get on the back of my chair and kiss me and I would give her treats.

She went blind about 4 months ago but managed to get around really well.

Thanksgiving day, she just couldn't get up. That day and night, I stayed right beside her. By the next morning she was in a coma.

We had to have her put to sleep. I stayed with her and kept my hand on her until she was gone.

She has left a big, empty space in our house and our hearts. We miss our precious. She was 18 years old.

Betty W

tinkerbell I truly miss you and the way you use to cuddle with me on the couch I was lucky that you had Smokey Jr he was one great fighter you also had boots and her sister too.

Lisa Jeffris

Today I let you take your final nap
At peace again in "daddy's lap.
He's waitin at Rainbow Bridge for you
With Toby, Teddy and Buffy too.

I loved you very much.

Fran Harris

Tinker was a very loved member of our family. He brought so much love and joy into our lives. It was so hard to see him dwindle away. Each day he held on not wanting to leave us. On the morning he died he barked for me to come and hold him. I gently picked him up and held him close. He died in my arms he wanted me to hold him one last time. Now he is in heaven with my little son Sam. My son now holds the sweet little dog that had richly blessed our lives for the past 12 years. Some day I too will be with them

Rose Polacek

I lost my babys just a month apart, I lost part of my heart, I know some day we will be together again, love you always my little brave man

Toby Kouns

She was truly a brave heart and we miss her very much.

Sue

Tiny…my little purr machine…your purring has ended in my ears but not in my heart.
From the day you were born I new you were the one I was going to keep and I am so thankful I did. Although you were the smallest in the litter you had one of the biggest hearts. You always had a purr for me, even in your final days. You were such a good friend, mother, and companion. You were always there to keep my legs warm, no matter how many times I got off the couch or tossed and turned at night you would always wait for me to settle back down and retake your position. I pray that you are in your own warm spot now where the warmth you receive is as full of love as the warmth you gave. I'll miss you at the top of the stairs calling to me when I come home, playing "gotcha" before bed and the winks you gave me from across the room. Go now and find your mother (Tabby) and wait for Charlie and me when we can all be together again.
Rest well and happy Tiny "my little girl".

Troubles was our daughter's only pet-she called him her "little man". He was, of course, king of our "roost". He lived with us; ate with us; camped with us; and of course, became one of the family. As he aged, his health became more & more important. When our daughter's fiancée came down with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 1999, it became our hidden goal (from her) to ensure Trouble's health and longevity. Her fiancée died in July of 2000 and it became more & more important to her Mom & I that we keep her pet alive & well; that she not lose her pet until as long into the healing process as possible. Unfortunately, that time came on Monday, 10-22. We miss our pup and will always treasure his time with us; the laughter he gave us; the web of love he wove into our home & family. We love you Trub's.

Gordon Edmonds

She was one special dog in more ways than one. As she was there for me and my hubby. As she lost her front leg and never slowed down and lived life to the fullest.

Cindy Blank

In 1991, a special gift came into our lives. Tippy was my mother in law's dog. He first gave her his unconditional love because her husband died in 1987. Then she died in 1991, and Tippy came into our house. He was the most precious, loving creature we had ever come across.

We will miss him dearly but know he will be waiting for us at Rainbow Bridge.

We miss you, Tippy.

Ramona Honan

I'll love you forever, Little One

Jennifer

I had you for 16 1/2 wonderful years. I love you and I miss you so much. Since you can no longer sleep in bed with me I now sleep with your special pillow. You are not suffering anymore and I hope you are having fun playing with Mom who went to heaven before you. I will always remember you. I will see you again.

Linda

Tippy was the best friend I could ever have. She loved to snuggle up and sing. I miss her sooooo much. I have adopted a new friend and we talk often about Tippy. It reminds me of how cute she was as a puppy and how much she enjoyed playing. I know she is in a better place

Sandy

Tippy was my best friend for 15 years, 1 month and 12 days! over a fourth of my life. He was the best dog ever.

Pat Mowdy

You came into our lives with your sister, Pepper. You were daddy's "Garden Girl". Always by his side and never expecting anything but some hugs and to sleep with Papa.

We miss you very much and so do Buffy, Pepper, and Honey. We will never forget your loving nature and your talking to us in your special way.

Thank you for being with us this short time. It was so hard for me to be with you at the end, but I was with you when you got your first shots and I felt like I needed to be with you at the end.

Blackstock Family

A loving faithful girl!! Whoever gave you up gave us a blessing!!

We will miss you girl!!

Joe, Pam, Dana, Jesse

Tisha, the joy of my heart - I will hold you there 'til we meet at the bridge

Margaret Bell

We'll miss our sweet kitty so much. My lap feels too empty.

Jeremy

I love you my beautiful loving girl I lost my best friend. May you rest in peace my love. Mommy will always have treasure all the happy times we shared together and try and let the healing begin but I don't know how to start my day with out you. I will always love you.

Donna

For Titus -

His people respected his dignity and allowed him to go to a better place.

Suzanne Maneke

Titus, you were the first dog I knew. We were like brothers together. All of us miss you and love you very much. We'll never forget how you liked to be vacuumed and how you would scratch at our arm when you wanted to be petted. We'll be thinking of you on those camping trips. Love, Dad and Kent

Titus, I knew you were special when I first saw you at the pet shop. You did so many cute things and when you would run, your ears flew back in the wind. Sweet little boy I will miss you always. Going on walks will never be the same without you. You were my "mama's boy". I will never forget you. Love, Mom

TJ burst into our lives in 1991 and changed them forever. He was a wonderful, loving dog who introduced us to the joy of dogs and life. Our circle of friends is larger because of TJ. He lived with us for 10 years, 9 months and one day, which was too short a time. Although he had myriad health problems he never let them interfere with his love of life. We will miss him for the rest of our lives and ask the other animals at the rainbow bridge to watch over him. He's very small and he's had a rough time.

January and Craig Adams

It's hard to believe that it has been a year this Friday. Time has a way of healing a broken heart! We miss you a lot T.J.!

Kay See

TJ was dubbed the land piranha by family members.
He was dedicated to my mother and only her as long as she didn't say "Let me see your fleas." Then the true evil spirit of him would come out. He was mean but that's what we loved about him. He was going to be 14. He was an epileptic and was cranky maybe because of that. He is survived by his mother Madeline and father Ralph. He has 3 sisters Julie, Vicki, and Lydia, and a brother Ralph. He loved to hate you and was a little Napoleon. You could never call him cute or sweet because he would turn around and think your meat. He hated when you would visit but what he hated most was when you said "Bye." He was to smart for his own good. We loved him cranky and all. TJ you will be missed!

I miss you everyday my furry son. I love you. Watch over your brother. He loves you too. Love, Mom & Mateo

Judy Grayson

I don't need to tell you how much you are loved, or how much I will miss you. I believe you know, and always knew, our special bond. You were the sweetest and most precious pet I ever had, and I don't think another cat could ever replace you in my heart. I'm sure Rebel misses you too in her own way.

Lynn

Dear Toast.
I love you and will miss you with all my heart and soul. You have been a wonderful friend to me. I will miss your beautiful brown eyes and your soft fur. You will be free to run through the daisies and chase the autumn leaves and your spirit will be at peace. I love you bugs. We will meet again one day.

Leanne Sandberg

To my precious boy "Toby" who will live in my hear at soul until death brings us together one day. I Love you always, and forever.

Mom, Judy

Judy Mendez

The best cat ever, my joy and my comfort.

Susan Grodsky

Toby- You were the joy of our lives for thirteen years. We miss watching you chase your ball and play with your sister. Toby was diagnosed with Cushing's disease about a month before he passed. His age was catching up to him and it was difficult for him to keep up with his sister, Piper. We are comforted to know that his suffering has now ended and that he can be reunited with his brother, Tramp in heaven. The void that his passing left in our lives will never be filled, however he will never leave our hearts and our memories.
Love Always,
Sherry, Fred, and Piper

Since my husband and I could never have children, Toby was our "baby". The three of us were a family and now our family unit is broken. He brought us so much love and joy, and will hold a special place in our hearts forever.

Cherie

Toby- We love you and miss you. You are in a special place now and hope you will always remember us. You will have a special place in our hearts.

Karmela and Jeremiah

I used to tease Toby about being Mamma's Boy. He never could sit NEXT TO, he had to be ON me. Lots of kisses, even while I was asleep and didn't kiss back. I've never known such a devoted, loving cat. All he ever wanted was to be with his Mamma...
My jelly donuts are safe from attack now. I will come home and find my muffins intact - no more little kitty bites out of each one. I'll have to eat my Pringles by myself.
I told him I'd be along in a while. Just be patient; Mamma still has something to do. When I'm done, I'll be right there, and he can sit ON me all he wants.

You were a good friend, protective and loving. I miss your barking and do not feel safe without you. Your brother and sisters miss you, too. The house is not right without Toby. And never will be. I love you, Toby. Goodbye.

Sharon Dietrich-Jones

We all loved Toby so much He gave us 15 beautiful years. We didn't get a chance to say good-by and kiss him, he left us on Sunday all of a sudden and our hearts are broken. Toby filled our house with love and he will be missed for ever. He will always be in our hearts. We love you Toby

Barbara, Tony, Alex

We just loved our Toby Cat so much and we are having a hard time we miss him so much. He came to by someone dropping him off he was hungry and scared and we took him he was the smartest cat that I have ever seen. He was very independent and never gave us any problems. He was hit by a car Sunday Morning Sept 23 2001 we were on our way to church when we saw him lying in the road. He had been chased by neighborhood dogs. It was the first time he had ever gone toward the road, as he was always was afraid of cars. But guess he was running for is life and didn't realize he was going for the road. Thank you for listening , I know Toby is in heaven and will be always be my sweetheart no kitty will ever take his place, But We will get another one.

Bonnie Pennington

Toby was my little angel son. He was very handsome and smart. He was my very best friend and I will love him always. I miss Toby terribly.

Sandy Cavoulas

Toby

Toby is my best friend
And though she has died
I know it is not the end.
I can feel her around me,
Whatever I do
I can feel her presence,
Toby I know it is you.
The strength you gave me
through the years,
You helped me find happiness
and get through the tears.
I know you're not here in the
physical way,
I know you're watching over me
and I'll be with you someday.
I love you, Thank You Toby,
for being in my life and seeing
me through,
When my life is over I know
I'll be with you.

Marge Farrington

Baby Toby, Although you were only with us for a short time, you share with us a lifetime of love. We will miss you and love you forever. You were the BEST boy!

Love, until we see you again, Mom and Dad

Toby-
I just wanted you to know how special you were to me. You were my protector, and my best friend. When everyone turned against me you were always there to lick my face and show me how much you loved me. Even as I type this through my tears I can't believe you are gone. But you did your job. You raised us girls and watched out for us until we were adults. You wanted to go on, and I think that if your heart would have let you you would have. I will NEVER FORGET YOU> I carry you in my heart daily. I know that where ever you are you probably are eating so I know your happy. I could never tell you how much I love you. I tried everyday to show you. It was an honor to take care of you in the end. I got to spend so much time with you and I am grateful for that. I miss you Toby. I love you, forever.

Candice

It's almost a year since you left, Toby and my love for you is carried in my heart now and forever. I miss you like it was yesterday. Until we meet again, my friend.

Janet Hornsby

We will miss you. Thanks for all the wonderful memories for 13 years. Your free of pain now.

CW & Patty

please wait for me my dearest heart..when I come to you you can rest upon me and warm yourself. I will never forget you. my darling, life here seems so lonely and sad. no one, human or animal, ever touched my soul so deeply as you. now make god's heart thrill to your beauty, but please tell him I must have you all to myself when I join you.

Maureen

From the first moment I saw you, I knew that I'd love you forever. You touched my life in a way that no one else seems to understand, you were My baby. Even though I wasn't able to watch you grow old, you will be in my heart always. I know that you are healthy and able to run and play again, and for that I am glad. But I will be waiting for the day when we will be together, and I can hold you again. Until then in my heart is where you'll always be, My Toby1knobe.

Melissa Dobson

To our sweet "kitten"...

I'm sure you had no idea what was up that day I brought "mom" Sue home from work. All you wanted was your food! I'm sure you didn't notice her packing up all your stuff. When you finished eating, we got to know each other a little, and then it was outside for the ride in the car that was not a trip to the vet! Everyone at the other house was moving and they were not able to take you along. You were moving, too and would soon be a multi-cat at age 8! The move and transition period was very smooth. Then daddy noticed that you didn't look well, so he took you to Dr. Jim. You were diabetic. You were very easy to stabilize and work into the daily "shots" routine. We just had to make sure that you got your food on the butcher block so you could eat it alone and get your shot.
When you were feeling better, you got to go to work on Fridays and visit everyone, especially "mom" Sue. You quickly became the office mascot. Everyone had such a good time at your 10th birthday party. You had a huge cake and lots of ice cream for all your friends. You were the life of the party at Christmas! You visited with everyone and wore your cute Santa hat. Everyone was taking your picture! Lunch was the best part. You got 3 slices of the best turkey. Then, all your admirers had to come to see you, because you were full and it was nap time.
With no warning at all, you got sick. Dr. Jim took care of you and then sent us to Dr. Doug for more testing. We couldn't figure out what was wrong. You kept getting worse, but we didn't know why. Then the lab tests showed us what we didn't want to see---your diabetes was out of control. Before Dr. Doug was able to begin trying to get it under control, you went to join Little Butchie at the Rainbow Bridge.
We decided that your body should sleep next to Butchie in that favorite spot in the yard. Our two diabetic white kittens together forever. The other cats miss you so much! All your friends at work are so sad. It was so hard to tell "mom" Sue that you were gone. But we know that you are healthy now and playing with Butchie at Rainbow Bridge. Some day, we will all play together again.

Until then,
we love you, "kitten" and we miss you so very much

Briana Hagquist

Toby was a god sent dog who loved life , to run and play with are other dog. I had wanted a German shepherd all my life and Christmas 1998 I was granted my wish with a 6 week old puppy. I had only had him for months and he was almost a year old , when late one night my mom and dad told me that Toby and been run over and killed. I was depressed for every and I still am because the same thing happened with my other puppy a year later. I miss them both. I just would want dog owners to know, Keep you dog inside the house if you can. Because I have lost the love of my life 3 times due to reckless drivers!

Kelli

Dear Toby Toes -

We miss you mightily! We love you dearly! We are very, very sad to be so suddenly without you! As your uncle Rich said, the quantity of your nicknames indicated how many people paid attention to you... No more Toby to run up to greet us when we come home. No more Toby laying in the sun on the front step. No more Toby insisting on sitting on my lap, even if it meant stepping on everyone else to get there. No more little tiny Toby "mrat" meow, coming from a great big cat. No more Toby to "help" with our papers (wrapping paper, reading paper, pattern paper - paper is great fun). No Toby laying "belly up" by the fire. When I call "Toby" from the front door, you no longer come...

"Saddle Thrombus" - we'd never heard of such a thing. I wish so much we could have done something to help you and make you all better. It was really painful to watch you, such a big, healthy, mighty cat, become so suddenly and unexpectedly helpless and hurting.

All you cats in heaven watch out! The neighborhood cats here are all breathing a sigh of relief...

You are one cool cat, Toby. And we miss you lots -

Love -

Cathy (and Sierra, Eric, Bill, Kathleen and Rich)

Until we meet again, my best dog ever.

Stuart Horton

To a very special "Toes" we miss you already and Alex too

GOD'S BREATH

I dream of the music that sets me free
I dream of the freedom that lets me be.
I dream of the beauty that helps me breathe
God's Breath in every living thing.

I dream of the sunshine that God gives for free
I dream of the moonlight that bathes the stars and you and me
I dream of the candlelight of all eternity
God's Breath in every living thing.

I sing of the Word, the Breath, that creates you and me
I sing of the Power of that Light that helps me see
I sing to the Great Spirit just as I am on bended knee
For God's Breath is in every living thing.

Heavenly Father, Heavenly Mother, God of all creation
Protect us now. Go with us now and forevermore.

Heavenly Father, Heavenly Mother, God of all the oceans
Sustain us now. Go with us now and forevermore.

I lost Casey on January 11 (my birthday) from nasal cancer that had penetrated the plate to her brain. She showed the first signs of illness only a few weeks ago. I had her euthenized while she was still under anesthesia from the x-ray, when I saw the seriousness of her tumor. She had two seizures that morning before her appointment with the internist.

Casey was an incredible dog. She loved the show ring, but mostly loved being with me and her littermate, Max. She had the special gift of being able to "smile." On greeting someone she loved, she would dance and break out into the silliest grin, with her nose wrinkled and her front teeth showing. She would even smile on demand! I coaxed a smile out of her and snapped a picture the night before she died.

She was terrified of thunderstorms. The only thing that really helped calm her down was playing Lyle Lovett's music LOUD. We went through many a storm listing to "That's right! You're not from Texas! . . . "

==================================

Casey Haiku

Smiling Belgian dog;
How to say goodbye to those
Trusting, liquid eyes?

=================================

She is being cremated. Her ashes will be returned to me and I will bury her beneath a stand of oaks in her beloved yard.

Karen Daw

Beloved Magical cat who survived Hurricane Andrew and was so much like the child I never had.

I will miss you always.

Goodbye my Friend

Jill Steinberg

From the day we brought him home, we knew we had one odd dog. Togo LOVED to talk - when in the show ring we'd say "Talk to the judges!" Although big for the breed, he was a very pretty dog and was the big baby of the family. He loved playing with his dog friend Mick, and even escaped with him one time (Mick came back shortly thereafter and we only found Togo after he had been sprayed by a skunk!)

The Cap Family

My beautiful best friend is going to heaven tomorrow. No meow waiting for me to come home, but no more velvet ears to rub for me. My heart is so heavy. She cannot hear me crying as I write this; in the past, she would come to kiss me whenever she knew I was crying or upset. I will miss her so much.

Joy Garratt

My little peanut - I'm going to miss you soooo much. You were my pride and joy. I love you so much, but you are in a place where there is no pain, and you get to play with Tafy and April all you want now. I will miss the way you use to greet me when I came home, how you use to run around my legs playing, how you use to sit on the back of the couch and lick my face, and how you use to roll over like a dog! You were and always will be my little peanut. Tess and Emma will miss you too! We love you!

Sara Forish

Oh Token, my sweet boy, how my heart aches. I miss you with every breath that I take. I long to feel your warmth in my lap, your precious and loving kneading on my legs, and to feel your soft black furr between my fingers. Oh, how I wish I could hold you in my arms and hear your sweet purr-JUST ONE MORE TIME-and to kiss you and tell you how very much you mean to me. I LOVE YOU WITH MY WHOLE HEART!! I am so heartbroken that someone could be so cruel and take you from me. You had so much life left to be lived, so much more to do, AND I STILL NEED YOU IN MY LIFE. I've cried every night since you were taken from me, and hope every morning when I get up you'll be there rubbing on my legs, purring, and mewing out of pure happiness just to see me.

I still remember the day you came into my life. We had just moved into our home and my sister brought you to us. She was searching the animal shelters for her lost cat, and she saw you. You were so sweet, you stole her heart away. The shelter volunteers told her your story. You were found chained to a fence with no one to love. They hadn't been able to find you a human of your own. You were scheduled to be put to sleep the following day. So she rescued you. She told us you were our house warming gift. AND YES SIR, YOU WARMED OUR HOME MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW. Oh Token, you were only a part of our lives for five years. But those five years were wonderful!! In that time you touched so many lives. I am so glad God allowed us to give you the five years you never may have gotten.

Token, baby, I am so sorry about what happened. I am so sorry you were hurt. I am so sorry your life was taken in such a horrible and cruel way. I just pray that the Lord took you quickly and that you didn't feel any pain.

You were the little angel the Lord sent into my life. I only wish He a let you stay just a little bit longer. Well, my "Smokin Token", please know that your momma loves and misses you very much. I will think of you, my big boy, every day. Until we meet again, my sweet angel--I LOVE YOU TOKEN.

The road to heaven

My friend, the road to heaven
Is traveled everyday
By some who have the will to go
Yet others wish to stay

I know your time was short, yet
God had another plan
It was to bring you home with him
And hold you in his hands

To him you're just as special
As you were to me
He had a plan for you to live
And die this way you see

And now while you're in heaven
And I'm still of this earth
I'll cherish all the memories
And measure what you're worth

A friend is never distant
No matter where they go
Their love is always present
Our hearts tell us so

Cause now you live in heaven
And I on earth alone
Until the day we'll meet again
When God calls me home

My Tom-Dog was such a wonderful friend. He was so brave with treatment and surgery for cancer on his front leg. When it came back, the vet amputated the leg and he did wonderfully well. A couple of weeks later he crawled under my bed early one morning for one last nap... and didn't wake up. I miss you, Tom, but Jingle came today to be with you.

Jeane

To Tom:
You will never know how much you meant to your "mom", Joyce. She loved you so much and will miss you very much. She is a good friend of mine and I wanted to be sure that you knew how much you added to her life. As she faced some major changes in her life you always made her smile. You spent time loving her, sharing with her and just being her best friend. The stories she tells of the time you spent with her clearly give her comfort. You will be sorely missed, but you will always fill her heart with joy, love and comfort. Rest easy my friend, and watch over her as you always have.

Lina

I got Tom when I was 12 years old. He grew up with me and was there for me during every aspect of my life. At first we didn't know that Tom was a boy. We didn't find that out until we went to have him spayed and got him neutered instead! Needless to say his first name wasn't originally Tom, it was Taffy. I changed it to Tom after the vet told us that she was a he. Tom moved into our house and into our hearts. He was a great hunter of birds, mice and whatever else he could find. Tom led a very healthy life until two and half years ago when he was diagnosed with Chronic Renal Failure. I gave him subcutaneous water and some pills to help his thyroid. For the past week Tom has been very ill and really going downhill, today on his 20th birthday, I gave him the greatest gift I could think of, no more pain. I will miss you so much Tom, but you will live within my heart forever. Love and miss you, Jennifer

To my Tommy. Thank you for always being there for me through all the bad times. You were truly the number 1 kitty. I still miss you every day. Give my love to Daddy, Bandit, Asia, Sadie and Tigger. I'm sure Daddy was there with open arms to great all of you. I saw Angel a couple weeks ago and she's very happy in her new home. And guess what? She gets to be the only kitty and has a little girl all to herself! Her dream come true! I love you Mr. Cat.

Diane

My beloved best friend and companion, you have been a joy and blessing to me everyday for the past 20 years. I thank you for all the love and happiness you have brought into my life. I thank God that He has blessed our many years together, although, our time still wasn't long enough. I already miss you so much, and so does your brother Sammy. Things just aren't the same without you. You will always remain in my heart, until we meet again. I love you so very much, your Mommy, Ann

For my beloved Tommy, my best friend, my best buddy, my best companion and my biggest fur ball. You will never be forgotten especially for your sandpaper kisses and motor boating purr. I will miss you knocking down the Xmas tree and decorations and guarding the presents each year. I will miss you fighting all the other cats and putting them in their place. and especially I will miss you above my bed on the bed board sleeping and misbehaving. May you be in the hands of God looking down at us and smiling, for you truely are the lucky one now. Miss you terribly. The General's Mom.

Thank you Tommy for the wonderful almost 15 years you spent in our home. You had the most beautiful face I have ever seen. People were amazed when they met you. You learned to do so many cute things that we miss every day now. I wish we could tell you how much we miss you. Having to put you to sleep was the hardest thing we have ever done. We were honored to give you your diabetes shots for the last one and a half years. If only you could have gone slowly and prepared us for your loss. One day you were with us and the next day you were gone. We thank God for the joy of loving you and being loved by you. If there is a heaven..I know you will be there. Because its supposed to be a place with everything and everybody we love. And that would be you. Rest well sweet boy...we will always love you.

Diane & Jim Coursolle

Tommy you came to us a frightened rabbit chained to the back of that rescue car. In those early days you watched and watched as we wondered about you, you wondered about us. We know now that you were the best Doberman anyone ever had - too good for those who caused the pain in the early years. In the short time we had you brightened our lives without asking for anything in return.
Tommy we are grieving badly and will never forget.
Love Angie and Trev.
ps Say hello to Louis.

FuzzButt, Tommy Boy, we love you so much. We are glad we had the wonderful two years knowing you. You have touched our lives, we will never be the same again. We will miss seeing your wiggly body when we come in the house. We will miss playing with your and your toys. We will even miss your constant barking when you were outside. But we will never forget you. You will remain in our hearts forever. We love you FuzzButt.

The thing I miss the most about Tonka is her natural protective presence. We got her because I was alone a lot while my husband was in the Navy. I had a hard time sleeping at night until we got her. There is a line in the movie "A Few Good Men" where they are in the courtroom and she says, "Why do you hate them (the marines) so much?" He says, "Because they picked on a weaker kid and killed him. Why do you love them so much?" She says, "Because they stand on a wall and they say nothing is going to hurt you tonight, not on my watch." Well that is my Tonka dog. I will miss you greatly! You were the best! I will always love you! I look forward to our great meeting at the bridge some day.

We love and miss you soooooooo much!!! =(

Chris, Tara, Devin, Ziggy & Chuey

Goodbye, my sweet girl. I can't believe you've only been gone for 4 days. We all miss you so much, but one day we'll be together again.

Jo

TILL WE MEET AGAIN !!!!!!!!

Anthony P Nicosia

In Loving Memory of Tony my special little budgie. I had him for 14 wonderful years. I grew up with him. He was like a brother to me and a best friend. He will live on in my heart and memory forever. I miss you, Tony. Sleep well.

Julie

This morning at 7:10AM, our special friend Tonya (cat) passed away. We were going to put her to sleep on Monday but she could not make it that far. Her heart, damaged by the condition of her liver, quit this morning. It was very sudden and very traumatic for my mother and I as she seized up and yelled out in fear/pain as her heart quit. She literally died in our arms, a look of terror across her face.

I have known this very special cat ever since I was a 10 year old boy. I had a special bond with her as she has always been there for me whenever I needed her. We rescued her from the humane society and very quickly grew to love her sweet, friendly personality. She never scratched or hurt anyone in her life and had the loudest "motor" of any cat I have ever met. She loved to be petted and scratched behind the ears and under the chin. She had not a mean bone in her body and was very laid back. When strangers passed our house on the sidewalk she would come up to them and rub against their legs, wanting to meet a new friend. She followed me halfway to school when I was a boy and would only turn around when she lost track of where she was. She loved my mom, sister, and I with all her heart. Some say that animals don't necessarily feel emotion, but I know in my heart that she loved us and knew that we loved her.

I hope that she felt little pain when she died as a cat such as her did not deserve it. I hope with all my heart that some day when I die we will be together again and I will be able to hold her close and hear her purring. She was the most wonderful cat I have ever known. When she left she took part of me with her and I will never be the same. I loved her.

Owen Hoffman

It's hard to know where to begin. Tonya was the sweetest, most adorable, kind cat there ever could be. She never had a mean bone in her body, she loved the sun, and she mostly loved us. Through divorce and other passing sadnesses in life, Tonya was always there for me and for my children. She was the bond. She was the light. She was our love.

She was 16 and died of liver disease complications. She died in our arms. We tried to help her by giving her some decongestant for babies. She hated it, about choked the night before, but seemed okay. I thought it actually helped her. We were desperate to keep her going until Janet, Owen's sister, arrived at the bus depot. This morning she was peaceful, so sweet and adorable. But, she reacted horribly to the medicine and began choking and coughing which we think sent her into a heart failure and convulsions.

Although it was a horrible situation, my son and I were helpless to save her. She died in our arms. We cried. We miss her so much. We all miss her. We love her and pray God has her safely in heaven above. We love you, Toona.

Laura Barnes

Toofla came into my life 15 years ago, at 2 years old. She belonged to someone who didn’t want her, and I took her because no one else wanted her either and it broke my heart for her. Her name was Sweety, but I renamed her Toofla.

Toofla loved to lie on my shoulders, where she felt safe. She’d lie in my lap and stretch her paw up to my shoulder, as if she were trying to hug me. We'd have long conversations. She’d sleep with me every night, with my arm curled around her.

Little Toof Toof, I miss you, my Sweetie, and I love you. You were so precious to me, and no other cat will ever take your place. I wish you were still here, little Pumpkin, I wish you could’ve stayed around a while longer. I tried to prepare myself mentally for 2 years, knowing one day I’d lose you, but it didn’t make it any easier when it happened. I’m sorry I had to make it end, but you were never going to get better again and I didn’t want you to suffer.

Don’t be scared, little Sweetie. I know you were always afraid of everything, but you’re safe where you are – there’s nothing to be afraid of. Lucy is there too – that’s where she went when she left us 4 years ago. And one day, my little Toof, we’ll be together again too.

Laurie Federgreen

Toonses, you brightened up your Mommy and Daddy's life. You were the best companion to your daddy, during the day. We miss you and shall never forget your love and devotion.

Carla McGreevy

Toots, Lady Toots Miller was her full name was my very best friend for 14 years, she even went to work with me.
She was a beautiful black and white Shih Tzu, she I guess say she died of grief from the loss of our other dog Roxey.
She was a Black Lab, Boxer mix and was a very beautiful dog herself, people would roll down their car windows at stop lights and comment on how pretty she was, she died of liver failure at age 11 on Sept. 22, 2001 she weighed over 100 pounds so I guess we were very fortunate to have her for that long.
I miss both of them very much and hope they will both be waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for me to get there to be with them again.

Jim Miller

Tootsie, you were the most precious cat. You were a gift from God to us. You made us laugh, you made us smile, you gave us love so unconditional. You were always there for me when I needed someone to hug. From the time you were a tiny kitten we knew you were a special cat. You were Tina's pal and playmate when she had no brother or sister, she taught you sign language and you understood her, and now you are her playmate in heaven. You comforted me in the lowest days of my life, you licked away all my tears. We miss you so much, but it was time for you to go home. I'll see you someday and you'll be with Tina waiting for me at the bridge.
I love you Tootsie, Thank you God for giving her to me.

Mommycat and Daddycat Hoffmeister

My Dear Tootsie:

You have kept me company for so many years and gave me a reason to live during the most turbulent times of my life. You will forever remain in my heart my sweet girl. Your picture will be forever on the mantel and prayers are said for you everyday. I hope that you are happy where you are and hope when the time comes, we will be reunited with your sisters and brothers. Love you always.

Clodya

Dear Tootsie,
Go with the knowledge that you will always be in my heart. I will always remember you with love and admiration. You were such an admirable kitty. You were soo sweet. I remember the day you were brought into my life. It was on the day of my sister's b-day party, and you were only three weeks old! I remember naming you Tootsie because for some reason, you reminded me of a tootsie roll. I'm not as upset at you loss when I remind myself that you will be joining your brother, Scrambler. Please remember me and your sister Pounce. Also, please remember Mom, and Dad, Jessie, and Jamie boy (James/James Bond), Kizzy and Smokey. I'm hoping that you will forgive the kittens for intruding in your life. It was not their fault. I'm also hoping that you forget Aidan. It would not do to remember her. I'm also hoping that you remember Dixie. Mom told me that Roxanne said that Dixie laid down by you like she was protecting you and that she looked really depressed. I don't really remember Dixie growling at you.
Go with my love (and everybody else's),
Maegan

You fought a good fight, and remained sweet and understanding till the end.

Don and Kerri Lyn Agey

Our first kitty-girl, you weren't supposed to leave us so soon. Say hello to Merlin for us. Love, Mom, Dad, & Ginny

Flavia Huber

Goodbye my baby, my love, my life. I will carry your pain for you now. You taught me much about unconditional love, about patience, about competing only with yourself and fulfilling your own potential. Forever in love with you, forever proud.

Thankyou,

Catherine Browning

Tori was a very special little dog. She was diagnosed with Canine lupus when she was just 7 months old.

Even with her many health problems that arose from both the disease and the medications she was on she was the happiest little dog I've ever known. She ruled the neighbourhood and she made an impact on everyone who had the pleasure of meeting her. The time I had with Tori was the best years of my life. She decided that she was finished fighting the disease and passed away peacefully in her sleep. She will be sadly missed...

Dianne

Oh Tori-cat, I miss you so!!:( My best friend and companion. You were always there for me even when no one else was. You loved life and everything about it. I just wish I knew what had happened that night...the pain you must have gone through getting back home to me. It's very lonely here now, though I know you are watching over me with those silvery blue eyes. I hope you will be waiting for me by the bridge.

Kris

Dear Toro:
I love and will miss you very much. Don't be sad dear Toro, you are now with Oolah, and Suzi, and one day we will all be together again. You were and still are a very special dog, and remember, I love you very much. Love your only Mom, Maureen

Toro has been at the Rainbow Bridge for almost 12 years but I still remember his unconditional love. After being abandoned at a veterinary clinic, he served as an emergency blood donor for cats in need. I adopted him and he brought a special love to our home for almost 18 years. He was my little sweetheart before I was married, and then he accepted and loved my husband and two children when they came along. Such a special, trusting little soul who can never be replaced in my heart. I miss you, Chooka-chooka!

Susan

Tory;

You were and are my baby. A gift from your Pa. We loved you so much and we miss you in ways that words can not say. I miss seeing your face in the window waiting for me to pull in the drive. I miss sharing the chair and finding you all curled up on Mr. Bear. For almost 14 years you were the first thing I did every morning and the last thing I did before I went to sleep. I will always miss you. The hardest decision I ever had to make was to let you go. I did not want you to have any pain. Keeping you with me would have been the most selfish thing I could have done and I really wanted to be selfish. I think of you frequently and I know you are chasing a tennis ball and riding on a boat. Most of all know you are with us and can see us even though we can't see you. I will see you again at the rainbow bridge you can give me kisses and we will play together.

Love
Mom and Pa
Pam and Rich

Although many years have passed he live on in our hearts and minds. Till we meet at the bridge. We love you Linda & Brian Morrison

Linda & Brian Morrison

Although Tosca has been gone for more than a year, I still get emotional just thinking about her. I adopted her at the age of two. All she had ever known was pain and abuse. I admit, the first year wasn't easy. We worked through destructive behavior, dog aggression, and many other problems, but I never regretted giving her my heart. She became the most loyal companion and best friend. There will never be another dog like her.

I love you girl; I'll see you at the Rainbow Bridge

Tina

To our beautiful, loving friend and companion Tosha:
Suddenly, tragically, you are gone and we miss you terribly.
I am so sorry you suffered, I know you aren't suffering anymore. Life feels like it will never be the same again.
I hope I see you in Heaven someday.

D. Leitch

ToTo will be missed here. We loved him more than he'd ever know.

Heather and Debbie

Thank you for being such a loyal and loving companion. I will miss you dearly.

Dorothy Dani Pleasant

In loving memory to our little Angel that will always hold a place in our heart and home.

We miss you and will always love you. You have a special place in our hearts. We know you are in a happy place. You have your best friend with you now, Spice, you too, take care of each other. We love you.

I had never had a bird before, so when I got you, Toukie, I was tickled! You were so smart and gentle. Chattering continually and talking with your other "brothers" that came along, kept me laughing all of the time. I shall never forget when I lost my dad 2 years ago, how you and the others helped me thru my grief. Never having to be any certain way, or say the right things, to feel loved and accepted by all of you "boys". I will miss that call that got me up in the mornings if I did not uncover you fast enough, "Hey darlin', c'mere." There is a hole where your cage was and there's big hole in my heart. I will always love and remember you. Love, "mom" "daddy" & the "boys"...

Tozy was a very special baby. She passed away for an unknown reason, even the vets could not figure out what caused her death. But for some reason her life was taken, perhaps in place of mine or a family member. Cats are very spiritual creatures. She loved to hide in the attic and to this day it seems as if we still hear her walking around up there. She was precious and will always be missed.

Tabitha

He gave us many years of love and comfort. Always trusting, a world traveler-he entered our lives in New Jersey, traveled with us to West Africa, California, Florida, Ohio and Virginia! He witnessed my marriage, my graduation from vet school, my dream to care for animals in Liberia and the birth of my two children. We will join him in our time to cross the rainbow bridge together. Love Elysse, Stuart, Mac and Aly

Tracker, the beloved cat of Dolly, Bill and Henry. You were woven into every joy and loss of this family for 18 years. Your handsome cameo-cat presence and strong purr bridged the days and connected us even in our losses. Thank you for the life you spent with us.

A little gift from God brought to me at one of the hardest times of my life, this little orange kitten became such a part of my life that when he passed on I had such a void. He was a great companion and took care of me from the beginning. We miss him, down here but God will take care of my friend. I know this much is true.

-Miranda

You left us far too early, but we know we did right by you. Keep an eye on us. See you at the Rainbow Bridge. Love you forever.

Siobhan, Simon, and Spike

I want to thank you, my loving friend and companion of 11 years, for all the joy you brought into my life. Your friendship when I was lonely and needed a friend; your love and devotion when I was sad; the happy times we shared together and the love and laughter (and barking) filling the house with your presence.

I will love you forever and will hold you in my heart until we one day meet again in a loving reunion. So be happy; chase squirrels (and maybe catch a few!) and wait for me to join you across that rainbow bridge.

He left us so suddenly. Maybe it would have hurt too much to say goodby. We love you Mr. Travers.

Darlene and Stan

You were a good boy, I will always love you. You fought a long battle with cancer, and now I hope you are chasing your ball in heaven. There aren't any vacuum cleaners there, so don't be scared. You were the best dog I ever had. We'll meet again my faithful friend. I miss you. Love, Mommy

Travis was a funloving dog. He would carry his bowl when he was hungry and his leash when he wanted to go for a walk. He would sleep at the bottom of your bed and keep you warm in the winter. He would bark a lot but we got use to it. I didn't mind if he bark a lot it made me feel good. When I come home from school he would bark it would make me feel loved cause he knew I was home. I miss Travis very much.

Kayla

He was my special little buddy and I will miss him dearly

Judy

My Baby Boo,
You are a special girl, who touched so many hearts, especially mine. You were my best friend, walking partner, my sunshine. All I had to do was look at you and I felt happy be alive. I do not know how I am going to get through life without you!! I cry everyday, I do not know how to fill this void I have in my heart. I know one day I will see you again! Thank you for 9 wonderful years!! I miss you so much, tree. Until I see you again. I LOVE YOU BABY BOO!!!-Stacie ( your walking buddy always!!)

Treesie Girl, I'll always cherish the 16 years you graced me. I miss you so and pray that I did the right thing this morning when you were taken to heaven. You were the one constant in my life all these years and I thank you for your sweetness and dedication to me. I'll never forget you, my sweet, sweet little girl and thank you for all the love you gave me. I love you dearly.

You'll never know how much you changed my life. From the time I was as young as 4 or 5, I was lonely. Life never seemed to be fulfilling enough to be worth living until there was you. Your sweet little face, tender little paws, and warm, warm, heart made sense out of life for me. You were my reason for being alive. It was my job to love you better than anyone could…that was my purpose in life.

You were a big handsome, 150 pound, Great Dane…but just a baby when I lost you…only 4 years old. The average life expectancy of a Great Dane is 8 years and that's what I was counting on. Bloat was the beginning of the nightmare but the thing that stopped your suffering and started mine was kidney failure. You made it through surgery and I stayed by your side everyday all day. Every time you opened your eyes, I wanted you to see your mom. You made me feel that being with me was better than any bone, steak, cookie, or trip to the park. You did such a great job of letting me, and everyone else in our lives, know that being with me was what made you the happiest. I loved you so much that all I wanted for you was happiness. I wanted to be the first thing you saw every time you opened your eyes. I held you and just watched you sleep. Watching you sleep is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

After 4 miserable, heart breaking days, your kidneys failed and I lost you. The day I lost you, I lost my life. You were my heart, my soul, my dreams, my reason, and so much more than my best friend. No person or animal could ever fill the emptiness that remains. I feel a true sense of hopelessness. I feel that I will never be as happy as I was when you were with me. I've never believed in an afterlife but I find myself hoping that I will see you again. My heart aches to the point that I feel I'm just wasting my time. Why should I wait a lifetime to find out if I will get the opportunity to hold you again. I want to be with you or stop the every day pain of missing you so badly. Oh Trem, just please come back! I know I should be thankful for the time I had with you but I feel so angry and cheated. I got a taste of true happiness and had it ripped away.

There is no way to adequately thank you for the love and laughter that you've given me. When you looked at me and I looked at you, there was a connection of souls and a love that exceeded any that I've ever known. That love will always belong to you and I'll hold onto it until the day that I get to hold you again. You are a part of me…the biggest part of me. Close your eyes and feel my soft kisses all over your face…feel the tremendous amount of love I have for you…and never be lonely because you are with me and always will be. I love you so very much. I miss you painfully. Love, Mom.

Trent was given to me by someone who couldn't take care of him anymore... He was one of the best gifts I have ever received. He would keep me up all night with his squeeky wheel or noises of him chewing on his cage, but I would give anything to hear him once more. He brought so much joy to me and made me realize how special of an animal hamsters really are. I know he is in Heaven with my dogs Taco and Sarge and is happy and active again. When I go, I can't wait to see him and all my pets again. I love you lil' guy...

Laura Glueckert

To my faithful companion who stood with me for 17 years, showed me more love and admiration than anyone, I miss you, love you and you are forever in my heart. I hope someday we will meet again. You were my best friend.

Triksee you were such a special little girl. The day I brought you and your sister K-Tee home was such a happy day. You were both so tiny i could put you in my pocket. You always brought such joy to our day. Those mischievious brown eyes of yours would look the other way when you got into trouble almost saying "blame K-Tee she did it." You would always greet your dad at the door when he came home from work and snuggle up to him as if to say "I'm your favorite arent I"? You would always wiggle your way out of trouble and into our hearts. Who could ever be angry with you when you were just so cute. Triksee we know you were such a sick little girl the day you were taken from us. We prayed that you would be OK but our prayers werent heard that day. You will always be very special to us. We couldnt bear to think of you being dumped in a hole so we had you creamated and put in a little brass urn with pretty little pink roses on it. Oh Triksee it is so pretty, just like you. K-Tee misses you bunches and bunches little girl. She loved you very much. Its been so hard on her we know, she looks for you all the time. Triksee what can we tell her ? How can we make her understand you wont be coming home? Dad and I have been loving on her a lot these past fews days and hope she knows you are here in spirit with her. Triksee you will never be forgotten. Your short life on this earth left its mark on a lot of people. And when we think of you through our tears of loss we will also smile with the wonderful memories you bring to us. Triksee till we meet you at the Rainbow Bridge, we will blow a kiss your way often and remember you fondly. Love Dad, Mom and K-Tee

On 11/25/00 I had to love Trilby enough to end her life. I believe she was ready to go. She fought diabetes bravely for the last 3 years. I was blessed to have her with me for all of her 20 years. She was always "my girl". I have not lost her. She will be in my heart forever.

Kay Lynn

For a brief period of time we had a chance to give you something you wouldn't have had If you had not come to our shelter. In turn you gave us something we would not have had, the ability to continue on and stop asking why someone left you so needlessly. We know we will continue to care for all who come our way and if and when the time comes we will hold them as we held you. Goodnite sweet girl and much peace to you.

Lucy Brant

Little Trinket went to heaven on July 17, 2001 NOONE Could tell us what she died from and how she went so quickly!! I am beyond repair grieving for her!! Please note her tribute!! She was the best little dog EVER. There will never be another like her. Her paw prints are FOREVER tattooed on my heart!! I love you TRINKET!!!!!

Trinky I Love you. See you at the bridge. Wait for me. I will be looking for you. love mommy, Joan

Joan and Mike

My Dear Sweet Tripod (Poddy) is now happy and healthy once again in Rainbow Bridge.
You were my best friend for 20 yrs. I shall always keep you in my heart forever my dear Fur Angel.
I miss you so very much. Wait for me for we shall be reunited one day. I shall always love you.

Fran Gallante

Tripper was adopted by us when she was 11 months old. She was part of our Humane Society's pet adoption day at a shopping mall 14 years ago. It was the end of the day and no one seemed very interested in her. My little daughter (3rd grade) begged to use her allowance money and take Tripper home. Tripper didn't look very clean and her one paw had been broken and bent from being caught in a trap! How could I resist? Poor little kitty! We had a Golden Retriever at home, but we would protect the cat from the dog. Tripper has been the most loving, loud purring, sweet kitty ever! Her shabby coat became shiny, silky black. Her paw was checked by our vet and he said it wasn't giving her pain. She was petite and weighed about 8 pounds. Very neat and perfect looking. She had a round "pumpkin face"--so cute! A true lap/shoulder cat with beautiful green eyes. How difficult it was this past week when we learned she had a cancerous mass in her chest and gave us reason to understand why she had been wheezing and losing weight! Poor little girl--she only weighed 3 and one -half pounds last week. With the care of her vet making her comfortable and giving us advice, we finally had to let her go this morning. AnnMarie and I were there til the end. My vet said I had a kitty hospice at my home for her....doing everything imaginable to make her feel better.

Thank you for the chance to help us grieve like this. Our hearts go out to those of you in this situation. Our pets truly become our family and best friends. They are so important but so difficult to let go. Some people don't understand, but I think some of us have a special gift to care for these animals.

Peace to all of you....

We'll be lighting a candle here tomorrow night in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Donna and daughter, AnnMarie

She was very sweet. She was poisoned and she died, but I'll meet her at the bridge.

Amanda K

I love you my sweet girl. May the Lord keep you in his arms until we meet again.

Rhonda Almarode

Trixie was an extraordinary therapy dog. She was only with me for a little over a year but during that short time she a lasting mark on my heart.. She touched so many lives.. Trixie never met a stranger..

Brigitte Marsh

We love you Trixie and we think of you every day. Your spirit is with us, and ours with you.

xoxo Monica, Mason and Babooshka =&..&=

To Troopa, I miss and love you. I will see you again.

Love Dad.

Trouble,....... you were never any trouble. We will miss you terribly, we never had a closer friend. You will never be alone. I wait to hear your patter on the quilt again and your welcoming yawl.

Love Dad & Mum

Trouble, you are gone from us our sweet little baby boy. Mom & Sissy always loved you and we still do for now and always. Our hearts are shattered beyond repair just knowing we can't see you again in this life. It broke our hearts to say goodbye to you one last time.

Sleep well our sweet little angel in Heaven. You have crossed the Rainbow Bridge and now you are in Heaven with all the other little kitties. Your suffering is over and your sorrow is gone.

We love you and we know you fought so hard for so long to stay with us and you were still fighting when we let you go to be with God. Thank you for purring for Sissy and for recognizing Mommy and winking it her one last time even though you were so weak and so sick. We mourn your loss but we knew it was time for you to go...you showed us that. Forgive us my little angel for not knowing you were so sick. We loved you so much and we never would have harmed you or let you suffer had we known.

Sissy & Mom will be coming to the Rainbow soon my love and we will all be together. Wait for us there and Sissy will hold you in her arms again just like she did last night and Mom will talk to you and brush you everyday. What a wonderful day it will be when we see each other again at the Bridge. You will be well and so will Mommy and me. We will have such fun together just like always and you will never leave us again.

Thank you my Angel, my beautiful Trouble for 12 years of love, joy, faithfulness and companionship. You warmed our hearts and soothed our pain more times than we could ever count and we could never repay you for your love. You were our baby and you will always be our baby. No other kitty will ever take your place in our hearts...you were the only one and you always will be. Goodnight, our Sweet Prince...our baby Trouble. We love you and we know that you are at peace now and that you are young and beautiful and well again. I can see laying on your back in Heaven with you spotted belly to the sky sound asleep and so happy. Watch over us precious Angel until we can be with you...you are our Guardian Angel now.

Lucille & Deborah

I will never forget Trucker or how wonderful he made me feel every day. The window is now empty where he used to be when I would get home after a long day. No matter how bad of a day I was having, it would dissolve when I'd see his smiling face in that window. Trucker was a very proud dog and he loved his family very much. From the day I found him as a baby sleeping on a McDonald's bag on the street, he changed our lives dramatically! All he ever wanted, and he made sure he did, was to make his family happy. The sound of our laughter was worth everything to him. He loved nothing better than curling up with a good rawhide on the couch behind our legs.
Words can never express how much love we had for him, but I know he knew. And we made sure he knew, every day of his life.
We will miss you and love you forever, Trucker. Until we are all together again!
Love, Momma, Dad ('Your Buddy') & Murphy ('Big Murph')

"Trudy" was the light of my life and her passing left a deep void. She died suddenly and unexpectedly of an acute asthma attack. On February 7, 2001 just a few days after Trudy passed over to the rainbow bridge, a little chocolate tortie Oriental Shorthair kitten was born in my home who is a half sister to my Trudy. She looks like a little baby Trudy kissed with sunshine and has helped to heal the pain. I called her "Tamoshan's Sugar In The Morning" and every morning she wakes me with kisses to remind me that life does go on and she is here with me as is the spirit of her older sister "Trudy".

One thing about breeding pedigreed cats is that we often can help ourselves heal with a relative of the cat or kitten that has passed on. It isn't possible to replace the lost family member but genetics is a funny science. I find that my cats that are closely related to each other have similar purr-sonalities.

I love you Trudy and I always will. Thank you for sending "Sugar" to me to help heal the huge hole in my heart your passing left. She is a bright ray of sunshine for every day. I hope that Sugar will give me babies herself someday to go on with what you and I had planned Trudy. We will all see you at the Rainbow Bridge someday.

Mommy

TRUE was my soul. He was an angel sent from heaven. Actually, when he found me, we exchanged souls soon after. When he died, he took mine with him. And I live on with his. We will be together in eternity. I have never loved or been loved like that. Every day with TRUE was the best day of my life. May your heart know a love like that.

Beth Herman

Truffle, my soulful and doleful companion, arrived at Rainbow Bridge this morning. We have had a glorious run these past 15 years. Ours was truly a case of eternal love at first sight. When I saw you and your huddled littermates on a farm in Jerseyville, Illinois, all of your brothers and sisters nipped at me but you alone licked my extended fingers. I knew then that you and I were meant to be together. And we have been barely separated since. While I know that you were happiest when it was just the two of us, you have welcomed and embraced my wife and our kids. You were so protective of the children when they were infants - you were usually the first one to arrive when they cried occasionally at night (on second thought, not so occasionally) and you were always eager to help. As the boys grew, your soft ears became favorite playtoys and you always obliged (even if somewhat begrudgingly!). As you approached your twilight years, you were diagnosed with diabetes and you stoically tolerated my fumblings with the daily shots of insulin, and never once snapped or barked aggressively. And I smile when I think of your antics at making my collection of a daily specimen such a challenge, when you would angle yourself so I couldn't collect the specimen without getting doused. Finally, we had the insulin injection down to a comfortable daily routine and you seemed to go out of our way to make it easy on me, as though you knew the daily shots were giving us precious bonus times together. You have been with me for over one third of my life. What a blessing! Thank you for your lessons of love, gentleness, compassion and humor. Thank you for being by my side all these years. I will remember you forever in my heart, in my dreams and in my prayers. Please wait for me!

Love, Jeff.

Truffles was a beautiful calico cat. A good Kitty. She was healthy throughout her life. Always a good eater. The matriarch of our 3 cat family. Loved to lay on our laps and be coddled and petted. We already miss her.

Meryl and David

You were dumped on the highway as a pup, mistreated and left to be hit by a car. I was so lucky to find you. You were my best friend. Although you never overcame your shyness with strangers you were the most loving, sensitive and caring dog on earth. By now, you have met Renee and I am sure that you are taking good care of her until we can all be together. Your Loving Mom, Margy

Margy Scherr

Truffles was a wonderful little cat who walked into our lives 4 years ago on a rainy spring evening as a scrawny kitten. He grew into a sleek affectionate cat who would come when called, loved to be cuddled and gave us much pleasure in the four years we were privileged to know him. He died suddenly this morning. We will miss him very much.

Anita Vassallo

This winter brings the memory of my beloved Truman who passed away two years ago suddenly with lymphoma at the young age of four years old. I was so blessed to have had you in my life! I miss you every day, and have your cremains with a ceramic curled up kitty that looks just like you glued to the top of your resting place. I light a candle by it, you always loved to lay in front of the fire place or in front of a window with the warm sun beaming down on you. You were my little hummer, you never uttered a meow, just a slight humm! I can still smell your clean fur and feel your limbs wrapped around my entire head as I would get down on the floor and bury my face into your belly and you would just take it for a minute and then gently bite my hair. It hurts my heart still to know you are on the other side. Please love Nicolas, he is my nephew that you never knew who was murdered in August 2000 senselessly. He will love you to pieces. You were both in our hearts this Christmas, because there were angels all around and I always called you my angel, and surrounding those angels were pictures of Nicolas through his 15 years. We miss you both, your collar still hangs from the rear view mirror of my car, and I actually plan to have it hung from a sterling silver necklace and I will wear it forever. Forever Truman I will love you, oh my gosh, please love Phillip Sterling, he is the actor I named you after after I saw him as a patient in my office he died the same December you did at The Motion Picture Hospital in Calabasas, Ca. I remember him beaming when I told him that I had found this little bitty boo abandoned at birth freezing under a wood pile near death, and I had had you for several weeks at that time and just called you "bitty boo" but being a fan of the show Sisters, I decided to name you after Phillip's character on the show. It was too ironic to lose both of you in the same month. Mr. Sterling was a lovely man, but you were my only son! My "Fish stick" because you were such a long kitty cat and you would always stretch so much! Baby blue, I miss you! I actually found something through PETA where I can actually have my favorite picture of you put on my checks. Saving you was the best thing I could ever have done. I'd do it again, and again, and although I plan to live a long life, I'm still 30 something, I will cross the rainbow bridge to bury my face in your furry belly for all of eternity. I love you my angel, my bitty boo, my Truman! Love,

Your best mommy, Dixie Lyn Antoinette

Trystan,
Mom misses you so. You are with your brothers, look for Maurice, Brandon Michael, and Sylvester so you won't be alone. Squeak.

Glenda

To our special dog in heaven we will never forget you but know that you are in a better place free of pain and that you chose when to pass on your own in my arms at home.
Love, mom, dad, nancy, rocky, grandpa and grandma
ps daddys sorry he want there

Michelle and Jim

I will miss forever your big, goofy grin and all your help in the kitchen. Your light shone on us for only a year and a half -- but what a bright light that was! The pain of losing you is nothing compared to the pain of not being there when you first got sick. My heart will never be the same. I love you, Tubs. Come aboard.

Carol

Tubyus died for no reason at all.
He crossed the elusive line between life an death at a very young age. My only hope is that he is with God now.
I will be sure to lite the candle this Monday.

Patrick Bernier

Tucker was my heart and soul. He was there for me through all of my problems and troubles and also my good times. I love him more than any one in the world. He was the most wonderful dog/friend, always putting me first and loving me no matter what. I love you Tucker....

Mary Jo Lantz

Tucker--

You were my little "trouble". You always rode around on my shoulders. You always tried so hard to get to the top of my shoulders and I would always help you get there.

Kathy

Tucker was a very special cat. He had a very hard life in such a short time. Last year he managed to pull through a hunting accident, losing his left front leg. This accident brought him to me. Although out time together was brief, he brought me much joy, happiness and love. He also taught me respect for animals who have disabilities and how they can enjoy life beyond them. I will miss him very much. I hope now he is running on all fours and I look forward to seeing him again when I cross the bridge myself. God keep him safe and happy as I tried.

Billie Berenbaum

To Tuesday, my little girlfriend. You were the best friend anyone could ever have. You were always there with your little meow and friendly rub at my leg. I wish I could have more time with you, but I guess God decided to call you home. How I you as do Boddy and the kids. Even Jerry misses you. You will always be alive in my heart. Wait for me by the Rainbow Bridge.
Love
Mom

Like all the loved pets on this list, Tuddy (as in puddy-tat) was more than just an animal in the house. She saw me through all of my adult life stages: marriage, divorce, college graduation, new marriage, children, interstate moves, job changes, deaths and marriages and children of friends and family, new pets and more moves. She liked to hang out with the girls, loved her snooze time in the sun or "reading the newspaper" in the window. The friend who told me about this site reminded me of a time when she and I were on my porch and Tuddy was sitting in the yard. My friend commented that she was sitting on the sprinkler.... One thing lead to another, the water was turned on, and Tud SPRANG into the air like a cartoon character, all legs running at top speed, hanging there for seconds. She dried herself off and then came to hang out to hear the rest of the gossip. She loved a good lap, especially a man's, and particularly loved a good shoulder to snooze on. Tuddy picked me out at the shelter when she was 8 weeks old; I know she will pick me out again when our time comes at the Rainbow Bridge. Since we had our daughter, neither cat has been as visible in the house. It's the telltale signs that someone's life isn't impacting yours that bring home the loss: no-one sleeping in the cloths basket when you go to bed, the deviled eggs were accidentally left out last night and went untouched, no more talking to us when putting down our child for the night amplifying the quiet, no-one sitting calmly on the front porch waiting for the door to open, knowing that the lumps in the bedcovers are no longer filled with a soft, sleeping cat. Tuddy was such a presence in our lives that it will take a long time to feel that our home is right. She will live on in our hearts and empty laps. Our two year old now calls all cats "baby tuds" and her favorite fleece blankets are little tuds and big tuds (because of the kitties on the small ones). A fitting tribute to a cat who gave us so much comfort. You were a good animal, Tuddy. You are sorely missed. I can see you chasing grasshoppers, praying mantis and moths, in between sun-drenched snoozes. Goodbye, for now.

Jenifer

We decided it was time to send Tuffy to that catnip garden in the sky. He has been blind for many years and now is very ill.

Lonny J. Watro

Just want the world to know about our dog "Tuffy"! He was the best dog we ever knew and because of the loss we suffered due to his untimely death we can not find it possible to ever have another dog. The cats are great, but they are not dogs!!!

My bulldog Tug was born on 07/09/1991 & went to the bridge on 03/09/2001. He was my sweet boy & I am heartbroken. He was such a clown & made me laugh! Everybody loved him & he was glad to see everybody who visited. Over the years his black mask turned to gray, but he was still such a playful puppy. I can't wait to see him again some day.

Janice

My sweet Tulicat, Know that you were loved and will always be loved. I shall keep you close in my heart and my memories. My beautiful friend, be free. Until we are together again, Love Janet.

We miss our dog terribly.

Brian, Mary, and Nick Hoffmeyer

Tumbles was a little dog that could be short tempered. But she was very sweet despite this. Whenever I was sick or worried or afraid she was right there and would lie down beside me to comfort me. When my husband was in the hospital with a stroke I could not have slept at night if she hadn't been there with me. We tried to save her but she didn't respond to treatment. This morning with God's strength to help me stay calm I had her put to sleep as I held her. The last thing she felt was and heard was my love for her. It was my turn to comfort her.

Debbie Goodwin

Tundra was such a sweet dog. She was very in tune with me. I have lost my best friend in the world. She was a true Siberian in every sense of the world. She loved the cold. The colder the better. She also has many successful and unsuccessful escape attempts under her belt. She was such a healthy dog . . . it is such a shock. Yukon and Barclay (our other dogs) don't want to eat or do anything since she has passed on. We all will miss her for the rest of our lives. She died suddenly in her favorite place, the north woods, with a smile on her face and her tail curled around her back.

Scott & Paula Gilbertson

To Our big tough boy - we will miss you! Your heart was bigger than all the world. A miracle since you were 4 months old with cancer - every day a blessing. Go run & play with all your friends and family! We will never be able to fill the hole you have left in our hearts and lives.

Always,

Mom & Dad

Only once in a lifetime does that Super-Special dog friend come along..the one who does it all! Everyone who ever met you,(& many who didn't get to), loved you..& you loved everything in life. Thank God for you..I will forever miss you...Love you Pumpkin-Bear, Mom

Catherine & Lucy

"Bobba" you will always hold that special place in my heart.. I like to think that you were a special angel sent down from heaven for a short time.. You were truly unique and there will never be another one like you.. I love you Tux and I will continue to miss you forever.. Take care little one, you will always be the best friend that you've always been!

Baby Tux, beautiful girl. We miss you so much. Please give all our beloved there with you kisses from us. You showed us the most incredible, caring, unconditional love we'll ever know. Thank you for finding us and being a part of our lives even though for only a short time. Justin and I think about you every day. Be happy and at peace. Love, Mommy, Justin and Keeblo.

Tweeter, you are a real sweetie. As I write this tears form in my eyes. I know tonight is the night and although I am happy to know you'll be out of pain and spry again as you cross the rainbow bridge, my heart is still breaking. Please know that I loved you very much and wait for me to join you over there as I already miss you tremendously and look forward to hugging you, singing to you and petting you again. Please tell Trixie, Sasha, Carmon, Stoney, Garfield, Angel, Shadow and Oscar that I love them and miss them very much.

Shelly Martin

Tweety was the best pet I have ever had. Your always in my mind baby! I luv you

Melissa A

To my very best friend who was always there by my side. I will miss you great sadness, but smile when I think of the fun we had. You were my first baby. I look forward to the day we are together again.

Michelle Bales

Our beloved Twit. A special cat if ever there was one, almost human to us. Black and white, with half a silly black moustache. Beautiful green eyes that sometimes would glow gold. We found her when she was a wee infant and loved her all of her memorable 19 years. She was and always will be in our hearts until we meet again someday.

Rosalie & Mark Paoloni

My very precious Twinkie, you had such a rough start to life as I got you as a baby ferret. You managed with the help of my Veterinarian Technician, to pull through for a little over a year. I am so grateful to have had you in my life. Your spread such joy and love to your sisters (six other Female Ferrets)and all that came to know you. You crossed the Rainbow Bridge way too soon.
I love you for eternity and I know that your brothers (Fang, Scoopy and Kapers are waiting to greet you at the Bridge). When that day arrives, I know we will all be together.

Denise Brown

To my Twinkie birdie, special little parrotlet, trouble maker, never afraid, snuggler, kissy-giver: you will be missed more than you can ever know. I hope that you are all well wherever you have gone. That your feathers are full. That you no longer will experience the seizures that racked your body for so long. Goodbye my little lovey. I look forward to the day when we are reunited.

Roxanne

Twinkle

You were a beautiful white budgerigar tinged with blue.

I happy soul always whistling, and taking care of the other budgies, you became a real mother hen.

You last days with us was filled with pain as the cancer took hold, and now you have gone you have been released from that pain.

You are now re-united with your friends Toby and Baby Benji to play at rainbow bridge together

You will be sadly missed by you partner Hippy. and friend Magic

We all love and miss you and we will never forget you

From Mom, Cindy and Tina

Goodnight, God Bless, till we all meet again

Muriel Gough

Twister, you were my buddy and shadow for over 13 years.
You were my foot warmer, dish licker and stranger alert.
You watched over me constantly, I was never out of your sight.
You snored me to sleep every night & worried me at times.
I always thought you'd be there, in "your spot"; but now it's empty.
I miss the jingle of your tags as you'd come to join me, wherever I would be.
Your silly little quirks and special devotion made you one of a kind.
They all called you "Momma's boy" with a touch of envy, and secretly my heart would smile.
We had something very special, you & I.
My heart cries for you, even though you are in a happier place, waiting for me again - as usual.
Be patient my dear friend, for I will come for you.
We will cuddle together again.

~ Love, Momma

Twoie

You suffered greatly, my dear Twoie
And I will miss you so
But when we ended your suffering
We began a sorrowful woe
You lived life to the fullest
You struggled to continue on
Although we wanted you to stay with us
We loved you too much to keep you from being strong
The way to keep your strength
Was not to cause you pain
But to end your life not in vain
But with love surrounding your name
We miss your gentle panting
Your gentle howls in the night
The rustling of the leaves as you stepped slowly across the grass
And how you put up such a fight
Oh dear Twoie
I wish I had had you longer
but to force you to suffer
would be even wronger

We love you Twoie
with all our hearts
And we miss you so
I hope you forgive us for not giving you the life you deserved, but we tried our best. You could not overcome death, but nor did death overcome you, you fought long and hard, friend, and you gave it your best until the end. Rest well my friend. We love and miss you so. I just wish to feel your soft fur through my fingers, and to hear the gentle rustling of your feet as you sleep and dream about chasing squirrels as you used to do as a pup. I did not get to love you as long as my family, but you meant the most to me. I will always miss you, and now in heaven you will be a pup again, and you wont have all the pain you had before, I hope to meet you again someday, but until then you will live on in my memories.

Rebecca, 13

Ty, my proud and gentle boy, always will you walk by my side and forever live on in my heart. Your MOM.
XXOO
Gail Biddle

My Ty was always very special. She never had a bad day or a bad thought I know. She loved life more than anyone or anything. This is why it was so painful to see her go through an amputation last year for cancer. But we did it supposedly to save her life. But that was not to be. She underwent chemo and had a great life until this spring when we found it was in her lungs. Her condition worsened and last week I had to let her go.

Ty was VERY special. She lived with 3 legs after her amputation a year before she died and she TRULY enjoyed every minute she was here. She taught so many people about positive spirit and energy and that will live on in us. Nothing could keep her down and I'm sure nothing does even now. We just miss her so.

Ann Carlson

TY

If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane
I would walk right into heaven and bring you back again.
No farewell words were spoken, no time to sat goodbye
You were gone before I knew it and only God knows why.
My heart does ache in sadness and secret tears still flow
What it really meant to lose you no one could ever know.
But now I know you want me, to mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times when our hearts as one did soar.
Since you'll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart is where you'll always stay.

With love,
Wendy & Susan

Words cannot describe how much I love my TyTyDog. I actually ache when I think about her. I miss her so very much. Ty brought so much joy & laughter into our lives. Tena, my wife, and I loved her so very much, and I know that she loved us just as much. We had her as a puppy that got used to sleeping with us in bed real quick. I was holding and petting my Ty the night that she passed .She was very brave to the end. I still cry & say a prayer for you whenever I think about you. You still live on here, I feel that you are somehow around. I love you Ty.

E. Alvarado

Tyche, you will be so missed, you were the kindest dog I think I have ever known. I had 12 wonderful years with you. Riding through the hills on my horse while you came along to protect me from all those squirrels. You will live in my heart forever and I will never forget how wonderful you were to us. I hope you understand why we had to let you go, you were so sick and this time you could not have gotten better like the last time. The decision was the hardest decision we have ever had to make, I just couldn't keep you here just so we wouldn't be without you. So for now we will have to keep you in our hearts until we see you again. You are in good company, now you, Harley, Geno and Fix can trail ride together again until I get there to join you guys someday. I love you my little Pooter-Booter-Wooter-Dooter. I am sure Geno is taking care of you and all the others. I will miss you my little red dog.

Laniece Orum & Larry Jones

You were my first baby
You were my strength and joy
In a way you will never know
Thank you sweetheart
Dad and I will miss you so much
We will always love you!

Love Mom

Sabina Vaughan

Hi there Tykie!

We still miss you terribly, though it's been almost a month. We love you lots, but we know you know that already. There will never be another cat quite like you! You were our little baby and will always be...

Until we meet again, we'll keep you forever in our hearts. We love you Tykie!

Heather and Don

Tyke,
Hey my little man. I always loved and always will. I loved you more than anything in the world and I will never forget you. I remember you were the only cat that I knew that could actually do tricks. You loved me and only me .I was the only one that you would do tricks for or come to. You are in God's hands now. He will take good care of you. I hope that you are watching over me. I can't wait until I can see you again, but I can't leave this earth and cause as much pain to my family as your death caused me(not that it is your fault). I love you my sweetheart.

April

To Tyler-man,
Our boy...how much love we have received from you.
It was so very hard to let you go but it is something we had to do...for love sometimes is so painful...we could not watch you struggle a day longer.
You leave a family full of tears...and hearts full of loving memories, we love you and miss you already.
rest our "dear" little boy...
and wait for us at the bridge...we will one day all be reunited.
Sadly missed by your, two mommies, your two sisters and brother.

Tyler was my best friend..he really was a person in a dog suit... he saw me through the best of times and the worst of times... and the present he left me was how he raised his step brother Toby ( also a standard poodle )we still miss him...but know that he is in a better place with no pain.

Susan L. Sleek

On Saturday, May 12, 2001 our sweet dog Tyler had to leave us. He was a beautiful golden retriever. He was given to us when he was one years old. He would have turned 10 in September. About 2 weeks ago he stopped eating so we took him in for blood work and was told he had a liver infection. They gave us antibiotics and put him on a special diet. Well, after a few days he would not eat or take the meds. Finally, he just laid down and would not move. I knew it was time for him to leave. We had to carry him out. The whole family was with him when he went and we all cried like babies. He was the first family dog my kids (ages 19 & 20) had. My daughter and I cry all the time and my son seems to hold everything in. He was my husbands best friend. Tyler (or Tylee Boy, as I called him) was the most affectionate dog. Everyone in the neighborhood loved him. He made a great pillow. Oh, of course, he had his flaws (but. don't we all?) - he loved to eat our napkins off our laps at dinner time. But, he could also flip a biscuit off his nose into his mouth. He actually seemed to be listening to me when I told him my problems. I must say that we are lucky enough to have another dog, Cleo, a yellow lab. I am sure she misses him a lot. I used to call them "my 4 legged barking children." Now I just have a "4 legged barking child." Tyler used to be scared to death of storms. In the middle of the night if there was a storm he would jump in bed with us and lay on top of my head. He was a great furnace in the winter months to cuddle up to. At one time he weighed 90 pd. but when he left us he weighed only 65 pd. To think we had to carry this beautiful and at one time strong dog out of his home. What a beautiful dog he was. We miss him so, it hurts!

Tyler, best watchdog in all the world.

Marsha Tymowczak

Tyler was the most special fur-baby to ever come along. My Dad got him almost a year after my mother passed away. My Dad had a heart condition and as we soon found out, a huskie pup is not the dog for a man with a heart condition. Though they loved each other very, very much, Tyler was just too strong for my Dad. So, my brother, sister & I were the ones to care for him. When I got married in 1989 my Dad let me take Tyler with me and he has been mine ever since. He was always there when I needed a shoulder to cry on, laugh with or love. When my husband went away to Desert Storm, he was by my side every minute. You couldn't ask for a more loving & loyal companion. He even was a clown too. One time while having Chinese Food, he tried to get something out of the empty bag on the floor and got his head stuck in the bag. He walked around so funny with the bag on his head. Tyler could always make me smile. Last week we found out he had cancer and we decided to put him to rest on the 10th anniversary of my fathers death, December 28th. Now, we pray he is with my parents running and playing and remembering just how much I love and miss him.

Tyler, I miss you and have been feeling your spirit, here, at home, since your passing, yesterday, on the way home, from our N.H./Maine Christmas, with Joel, Polly and Wolf and my family, as well as Joel's. I was thinking of you mooching tidbits, as I prepared Joel and I, dinner...I hope you are enjoying your spirit world as you dance on the wind and send us memories, of you....love you, always...Joel and John.

P.S....say hello to Anna, Ruben and Minnie and Luke and Sadie, as well!

Tyrone my love I still miss you every day even though you have been gone for over eight years, I will see you someday and look forward to our reunion. Mom

Lane & Julie Jasper

Hi I am only 14 when I was 10 my grandmother brought a special friend in my life his name was Tyson. At the time I thought that he would always be around, he was 4 months when we got him and from the first day I saw him I knew that he was special was. I remember holding his paws and dancing with him and once I and a friend had a pretend marriage so I was Mrs. Tyson I even bought him a ring. August of 2001 everything changed he went to the vets for a easy tooth sugary and never returned it was so unexpected he was only 4 and I never ever thought it would happen when I got the phone call I ran into his bedroom and saw that there was blood on his bed the doctor told me that he had a strange disease that he was bleeding internally and it had nothing to do with his tooth at all. I never ever got to say good bye and I really want everyone to know that you never know when your friend will leave so I hope that if anyone reads this to just stop whet they are doing and hug their dog!!! I never had the chance to say goodbye and if I knew that was going to happen I would it was the most painful thing I ever went through I don't think I ever cried as hard I miss Tyson so much he really was my best friend.

Love always,
Kristen

In memory of my beloved faithful friend, who came to me, a victim of cruelty. Over a short space of time, we became such wonderful friends, and I love him still, for that reason. Days of fun down on the farm, galloping the cart tracks in the barley fields, little strolls by the river in the warm evenings, nothing will ever replace those memories. My life has never been the same without you Ty. Love ya soops.

Lynne Dey

Tyson has join his other two brothers Beau and Conan they were my babies and I sure do miss them. My heart is breaking but I know they are young again and running and playing together. They were my best buddies the best you would ever want in a friend. Miss you, love you.

Tyson,

You brought so much joy to our lives. We will miss your silly bird sounds, your sweet kisses (and even your bites), your soft purrs, your silly face. You were so brave and we will never ever forget you. We love you!

Your Moms,
Amy and Gwen
