We all miss you Gumby.
You are a very "special" guy and you blessed our family just by being a part of it. Run and play on strong new legs until we meet up once again.
Love Mom & Dad

The spicy, sassy, mischevious Cachou.
Always happy, always curious, always full of fun. You will be missed!

Alex Lechantre and Lori Del Secco

Cachou was a son to us since the day our lifes were brought together. It is with great sadness that we had to say goodbye after a 6 months fight against cancer.

Cachou is, will and forever be our son and greatlly missed.

Anick and Luc

I remember seeing you in the pet store and knew I had to take you home that day. You brought joy and laughter into my life. I still see you dropping your little red lid when I picked up my camera to take your picture. I love you Cadbury and miss you terribly.

Today our beloved Golden Retriever Caddie went to wait for us at the Rainbow Bridge. He had lung cancer and we couldn't stand to see him work so hard to breath. He was born on our farm 12 years ago and was the last of our Goldens. Sleep well Old Man. We miss you!!

Caesar was the most lovable kitty ever.
He was a very curious kitty that loved to play, play, play. He has passed over to The Rainbow Bridge but deeply missed here on Earth!

Sara

Caesar was a handsome boy, given up to the police for training.
He didn't have the heart to be a K-9 they said.
We were fortunate to find him.
Caesar, you had more heart than many people we know.
You were funny and loved having fun.
You loved your dad and were his constant companion.
You were my protector. You will forever be our best friend.
You were loved and loved us.
We were lucky to have found you and for the nine wonderful years we had together.

Mike and Lorraine Lapetina

CAESAR WAS DIAGNOSED WITH FIP ON 9/21/07 AND PASSED ON 10/2/07

My dearest Caesar, From the moment I saw you, you captured my heart. You have been the best kitty. You were always so loving and sweet. I hope you know how much I love you and how much I am going to miss you. I love you.

Mikki

My Dear Sweet Caesar Boy,
My heart aches so much today, oh how I wish I could have been with you last night.
I was hoping you would hang on until today so I could be with you when the angels came to take you away.
You were a very sick kitty, so I'm glad God took so you didn't have to suffer anymore.
I'm going to miss you with all my heart, but THANK YOU for almost 15 beautiful years of your company my beautiful blue eyed baby boy. I know that you healthy and happy now, no more sickness. Someday we will all be together again in heaven. I bet Luigi was so happy to see you :) I LOVE YOU CAESAR
WITH ALL MY HEART...ALWAYS AND FOREVER, MOMMY

Thank you for being my very best friend.
I miss you so much and it hurts me so.
I know you are better off now with no pain and running free.
Just remember I love you BUD and you will always be in my heart and mind.
Love mom

A loyal, loving companion who knew no strangers. Nickname of Caesar the teaser for the way he played. Sorely missed by all who loved him.
See you at the bridge Bud.

After three weeks of fighting a mysterious ailment that destroyed Caesar’s nervous system, I put him to sleep last night. It was heartbreaking to see such a strong and beautiful dog gradually lose use of his legs and body. Since Monday evening, he was paralyzed from the neck down.

Yesterday I spent quality time with him. I didn’t know what to do. I never had to put a beloved pet down. He made the decision for me. The look is his eyes spoke of pain and utter misery. Poor baby! I fed him his last meal – baby back ribs, cole slaw, fresh bread, and French fries. Not too shabby! I told him that everything would be ok and that someday I’d see him again in heaven. Chances being…..him knocking me down to the ground. LOL I sang to him and told him how much I love him and just wanted him to be happy again.

When he died in my arms, I let out a primal cry from deep within my soul. A part of me died. I felt the very last breath he took. I can only equate this cry to the pain a mother feels when losing a child. Caesar was my child. My little baby. I remember the first time I saw him. He was only 8 weeks old and came running towards me – wagging that big tail of his. He was such a big puppy with huge paws!
We bonded instantly and have been best friends ever since.

Over the past seven years, we’ve shared good times and bad times. He comforted me during the time my father passed away. A gentle kiss on the hand or many kisses on my face always cheered me up. He was my fortress. Last night I was his.

There are so many things I’m going to miss about him:

• Catching him in the act of stealing food from the kitchen counter and table. Once, he stole a whole chicken and fried fish. He knew how to eat an apple while leaving the core behind. He spit out the seeds of plums and nectarines. He even loved veggies, especially baby carrots. He just loved food!
• I’ll miss rubbing his chest while he was asleep on his back, his favorite position. He’d wag his tail for me.
• I’m going to miss his smile and innocent eyes.
• I’ll miss shaking paws with him.
• I’m really going to miss our adventures and walks/runs together. We both enjoyed being outside.
• I’m going to miss him playing in the water and soaking in mud baths.
• I’m going to miss EVERYTHING about him!

Caesar brought joy into my life. We even completed our weight loss journeys together. He was strong, beautiful, and lean at a solid 104 lbs. We became healthy and fit together! What an accomplishment! Go Caesar! Go Caesar! Go Caesar Go!

He’s in a better place right now. No longer suffering. I can’t believe he’s gone. It hurts so much. My heart aches. Caesar was a fighter like my father. I know he’s hanging out with him in heaven as I’m writing this or maybe he’s chasing a little white dog? LOL He’ll be greatly missed. I love you very much, Caesar! BIG HUGS & KISSES from your mommy. RIP 3-14-07.

My Sweet Little Caesar

How can I exist without my shadow? Caesar that is what you were, always waiting for me and staying by my side. I miss looking down at my feet and not seeing your wonderful licorice lips smiling back at me. Thank you for all the joy you brought to my life. You had more expressions than any animal I have ever seen, I could always tell what you were thinking. As a puppy you would bite the water coming out of the sprinkler and make me uncontrollably laugh. You were cautious with strangers but once you felt comfortable in their homes you would proceed to kick all the pillows off their beds and couches. When you were hot you’d go into the water just deep enough to lie down stretched out with only your head and neck out. You’d roll in the snow to cool off in the winter but would try to jump from tree to tree to stay out of the deep snow. You’d kick your dog bed to hide your toys under it then kick again to retrieve them. You would not give a single kiss but would prefer to give a total face wash. You’d get in your inflatable boat or our kayak and fall asleep with the gentle swaying and snore like a fog horn. You braved the loss of Buster and were the most incredible big brother to William that anyone could ever dream of. I will always miss you sitting on the back of the chair in Arnold waiting with Buster for us to return. I love you and will keep you close in my heart. May you play with Buster and Pierre till I am with you again in heaven.

Tylene

Caesar was a great friend and companion for the 16 years that God granted him to me. Caesar loved his treats, his boiled chicken and his toys. He was a very gentle dog and I will miss him forever. I know he crossed the Rainbow Bridge and has met up with his sister Cleo, who passed 4 years ago. Until we meet again Caesar, hugs and kisses, love mommy.

Mary

Casey was a beautiful, loving, sensitive baby who loved me so much, much more than a human could ever love.
She was my little angel in a furcoat.
She gave so much unconditional love for 16 years.
Dr. Molloy who cared for her in her young years happened to be by when Casey was to be euthanized and happened to be by with his camera on that day.
He was a consultant for the clinic I took Casey. He had since moved to Baker Animal Hospital but was there on that day where I had Casey in a grassy knoll for our last walk.
He asked me what was happening as I was crying and I told him I was putting Casey to sleep.
I thought that it was amazing that he was there, and with his camera too.
He said you will always have Casey with you,
I will take her picture.
What a remembrance I have, with a beautiful, soulful look into my eyes whenever I look at that picture.
It was not by chance that he was there at the clinic that day.
Yes, she will always be with me.
And when I make it to the Rainbow Bridge she will be waiting for me to come for her with my arms wide opened.
What a wonderful day that will be when my Casey I will see.
Thank you so very much for being here for all of us who have loved our little angels in furcoats.

Lillian Schwegler

Cain, you are already missed. The void in my heart will be difficult to fill.
You were with me for almost 13 years and through all of the major events in my life.
I love you more than you can imagine.
Life will never be the same without you.
I know we will meet again.
I look forward to seeing you again, old friend.

Dustin and Alicia Briquelet

Cain,

You were my best friend. I love you so much and I'm sorry you're no longer here. You brought so much joy to so many people's lives, but mine more than anyone's. I miss you, and I don't know how I will make it without you. Thank you so much for being there for me through everything. I love you little man.

Kim Droze

I will miss you and hope to see you again
You were the most gentle spirit I've known
I love you forever

Because we were watching what was turning into a protracted death process, we took our beloved Caitia to the vet this morning, and had her put to sleep.

We did our best to make sure she was comfortable and knew she was well loved before taking this action. Caitia was a joy to both cats and people alike for all the years granted by Spirit.

She especially loved greeting and making everyone feel right at home! She also made her love of purses and bags well known by either laying or trying to crawl into them. Caitia will be really missed until we see her in the Summerland where caretakers now love and keep her safe.

Caitia
July, 1993 - July, 2007
A truly loved big girl

Lance & Mary Oliver

"Ter Bear or Momma Dog" was the one thing when something went wrong, she'd sit there and listen to me.
She hated to see me cry and would get upset when I would.
She would be my shadow and had been my shadow for almost 14 years.
Following me everywhere and never letting me down.
She was my little frisbee dog.
She would retrieve anything you threw for her, including rocks, frisbees, soccer balls, basketballs, golf balls, tennis balls, baseballs, and even pop bottles.
She was my angel and my hero throughout life.
She is definitly with me still, at night, I still feel her presence on the bed, I still feel her there like she had been for the last 14 years.
Just not seeing her physically is what kills.
She is my hero and my angel, and she will be with me, and have a large piece of my heart forever.

Caitlin Brown

Caitlin, you will be in my heart forever! I feel so fortunate to have known you.
You are the best little cat anyone could EVER ask for. You won my heart from the first time I saw you in the shelter. Kneading the steel floor. How could I not have taken you? I remember getting to know you and you would come up on the bed and make your little pigeon noise for daddy to play with you. I know it was a small place but you made it a home. You were such a great companion. Such a genteel little beast you were. I’ll always remember you as loving, funny and so full of life. Bunnykicking, riding shotgun in the car, spooning with daddy while we slept together, running upstairs when daddy shook the catnip container, showering daddy with kisses (even when he was clipping your nails). I’ll so be looking forward to being reunited with you at the Rainbow Bridge. I will miss you each and every day. I just love you all to pieces.

John Holland

Cajun had a very happy life. We took him to the beach and boating on the weekends. He used to swim in our pool and he loved playing fetch. He was our first show dog but a family memeber first, always! He was a beautiful dog inside and out. He is greatly missed.

Roxana and Jeff

My cat Cajun was sixteen years old when we had to put him down today. I have had him since I was eight years old. He was the most loyal family cat,and he was so loving and sweet. I found Cajun while on vacation with my parents when I was just a child. We were touring a really old cemetary in Mississippi and I found him on one of the graves. Since then he has lived a happy, loving and very fulfilled life. He has been
a true gift from God. We will miss him, and he will always be in our hearts.

Melanie McCutcheon

Dear Calamity,

It's only been a day since you left me and I cannot believe how quiet it is here in this place without you.
I never realized just how much you "talked" all of the time and kept me company with your bizarre array of meows and mews.
You woke me up almost every morning and demanded to be fed the minute my feet touched the floor.
You followed me into the bathroom telling me thanks for feeding you first.

You walked into every room announcing your arrival.
You would come and meow to tell me that Maizie hadn't covered up her poops or to tell me it was time to clean the box.

I remember so well that day I found you or you found me.
I hadn't been in Denver a month yet and there I was at Cheesman Park with a neighbor, doing my best to get a sunburn, when a little kid came up to me with you in his arms asking if you were my cat.
He found you stuck in a tree and and took you home when his mother told him he couldn't keep you and that you needed to find his owner and give him back. You were so cute and the little kid had been looking for your home for an hour and I said, "Yes, he's mine."

You were such a cute little fluff ball.
Kind of beigy with vague stripes and blue eyes.
I named you within minutes.
I chose Calamity because you had been in so much trouble for such a little kitty.
You started out as Calamity Jane, but six weeks later, I noticed you weren't a Jane at all.. and you became Calamity Joe, or just plain Clams.

When I got you home you made yourself known.
You were a talker from Day One.
I had never had such a vocal cat and I didn't know if I could stand it at first.
But you created your own place in our space and settled in nicely.

You have been such a joy over the past 19 years and I know the last two have been tough for you.
I have held you all night long when you started having your strokes and cried and talked and petted you, telling you what a wonderful cat you are.

Everyone who met you thought you were a cool-looking, friendly critter.
The polka dots on your tummy, your magic whiskers, your stripes and coloring - all beautiful.
One friend nicknamed you the Watermelon Cat because of your stripes.

Maizie and Bluey miss you too.
They keep wandering around the apartment looking for you, sniffing your carrier and coming to me with a questioning look in their faces.
It feels pretty empty here, bud, without you.
It's too quiet. There is a big hole in my heart where I will carry your memory for the rest of my days.

Clams, I hope you've found Mom and are sitting in her lap purring and telling her everything that's happened since she's left.
I hope you've met up with your big sister Annie and she's batting you on the head like she did when you were a little thing.
And most of all, I hope you remember me when I cross that bridge.
I miss you baby.
I miss you so much.

With much love and grief, remember I love you.

Glenda

Calamity, Mom miss you so much and loved you more thqn life itself you gave me so much happiness and joy. I just don't know if I can make it with out you, my special sweet little girl. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, AND YOUR HUSBAND, SON ALSO ARE MISSING YOU. FOREEVER IN ARE HEART TILL WE MEET AGAIN

xoxo love forever

Mary

Cale was the most amazing dog, who gave so much love to so many. He was a rescue dog, a member of the Big Sky rescue team, and will never be forgotten by his many friends in Montana.

Tom Casale

Caleb was adopted from a shelter by my son,
Mike G. five minutes before closing on Calebs
"last day" (before being put to sleep as no one had adopted him)
Caleb went to college with Mike, was a member of the soccer team, then the Ultimate team, was loved by all who ever met him.
Caleb was a very smart boy, he would not cross a street unless a human told him it was OK to cross........
He now sleeps in his favorite spot on the field.

Carolyn

Cali Girl was a special soul.
She had a spirit that filled up the whole room with light and love! She was my everything!
We had moments together that were so special that I can't even put those conversations into words. I would have spent every waking hour having moments with her rather than be with most of the human beings I know on this earth. I would gladly give up my life or to give everything that I have to have one more moment with her!
I hope that I was as good to her as she was to me and that we can be together again very soon!
I know she is always with me as my whole heart will always hold her gently.
Go and play and chase those birds my girl, lay in the sun and fall asleep all curled up in a ball.
Know that I am loving you and thinking of you at this very moment and I will see you soon!!!

Bobbi Alseth

Dear Cali,

Mom, Dad and Barkles we all love you so much, we know that one day we will see you again. That's why I didn't say Good bye to you today. Your in the backyard now, we know where you are and we'll be thinking of you everyday.....

You were 8 years old when we got you. Your Dad said we need a mouser a good one, your other Mom had a ad in the paper for a free cat with all goodies included. Your Dad seen the ad in the paper, and said there's a mouser! In big bold black letters it said Excellent Mouser Free! So we called your other Mom and brought you home. We had just moved in this house and your job was to rid the basement of mice and critters since we lived in the country! We let you play outside all day, you loved the outside so much! At night we would bring you inside the basement, and Dad and I and Barkels could hear you chasing the critters downstairs! This went on for a couple of weeks, then we didn't hear too much at night so we thought we'd invite you upstairs. You remember Barkels and you really didn't get along, he would follow you around, then the one day he had you cornered on the deck. Dad and I where there with you, and you finally got mad and told Barkels who was boss and gave him a bat! Turned out, Barkels wasn't boss no more! But Barkels loved you too honey, you guys would sleep together in the basket...Moms got a picture of that somewhere around here....

Anyhow Honey, you loved the sun, you loved it too much. What happened to you, you ended up with skin cancer on the ear and Dr. Alan had to amputate your ear. But because of your age 16 yrs your body just couldn't fight off the infection after the surgery. You started to grow masses where your could not drain, which meant you had to have surgery again. Even though you ate you played and everything else, Dad and I wanted to keep you going. Then your ear just got worse, the antibotics just were not doing what they should. After your 3rd and final surgery Dad and I decided your just too old for all this and had to come to decide on what to do. We both felt the best thing to do was to let you go, knowing that one day we shall meet again.

You ate so much this morning so I'm pretty happy you went to heaven on a full tummy! Mom and Dad know that your in heaven with Ruger, and Remi and have a great ol' time.

Till we meet again Cali, night night Mom and Dad and Barkels we all love you, have a good sleep see you in the morning. kisses and a big hug sweety

Wendy and Jeff

Till we meet again, my sweet Cal Cal.
I love you and I miss you more than words can express, but I feel peace because I know you are no longer suffering...please tell Molly, Murphles, Rebel, Dixie & Rags we love and miss them too...we will see you soon...save a place for us in heaven, okay?

Kristin, Gerri, Eddie, Kourtney & Family

Cali was not our dog she was are baby and we miss her so much. Her sister daisy is so lonley without her. We will always remember cali as our protector and our baby. We love you Cali.

Christina McKee

My sweet Cali girl.
You were the sweetest, most loving, precious friend I have ever known.
You gave 9 years of love to me and I gave you the gift of peace and rest 2 days ago.
You saw me through the darkest days and nights of my life with your unconditional acceptance and love.
I love you and you will remain in my heart forever.
I miss you terribly and I will see you on the Rainbow Bridge when it is time.
Until then, run like the wind my little "runner dog".

Mary Jo Geiger

We may not be together
in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by
a cord no eye can see.

So whenever you need to find me,
we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow
and listen with your heart

I miss you my sweet angel!

Donna

Cali stayed with me through many good and bad times and never lost her patience.
Four cats, a deaf dalmatian and an abused boxer pitbull and still she loved unconditionally.
She was an angel and loved with all her heart.
She was happiest at the lake swimming and retrieving a tennis ball.
The last year she was on her own a lot unable to hike and walk with the other girls and finally I knew it was time.
My angel is back with God now and I am happy he lent her to me.

Rebecca

Dear dear sweet Cali,

We miss you and will always love you forever.
Your meows always bought us such comfort and joy. Your green eyes were so beautiful like a emerald. You were the best cat anybody could ever have.
You always knew when we were sad or down but somehow you always put a smile on our faces.
We miss you so much and will always be in our memories forever.
We will see you again sweet Cali.
Just knowing that you are in heaven and watching over us makes me feel better.
Tabbs, your sister, misses you so much.

Love you forever,

Mommy, Daddy, and Tabbs

to the best cat in the world we love u forever

mom&dad

a loving, loyal pet. will be greatly missed!!!!

Michael Roth

We had many wonderful years with you, I'm sorry you felt you couldn't let us help you when you were sick. We will always hold a special place in our hearts for you. RIP sweet girl.

Deb Mumby

Cali Sue, what a wonderful baby you were.
Mommy loved you so much, and she cries everyday with the memories of the love you have given her.
She cannot think of anything in her life that does not reflect you being there, and it is second nature to expect you to come walking in and jump up on the couch with us.
You have been in my life for only four years, but if not for you, me and mommy never would have been married, and I would never had the opportunity to become your daddy.
We love and miss you so much, and will never forget those head butts and your sweet pawing on our faces.
See you at the Bridge baby girl...

Jennifer & Danny Vinson

In memory of Cali-Sunterra Moses
Forever in our Hearts
Mom and Dad

When I adopted you 11 yrs ago I knew you had gone through a lot of abuse and I wanted to give you a good home, but I never knew just how much you would fill my life with joy, unconditional love, and devotion. I had no idea you would do things that were so out of the norm for any dog; like when you unzipped your carrier on the plane and went back 5 rows to soothe a fussy little girl. You were more than just a dog to me; you were there to comfort me when I was sad, make me laugh when I was down, greeted me with joy and a wagging tail whether I was gone for a couple of hours or a couple of minutes; you were another daughter to me, a sister to my human daughter; you were a caring mother to Tashi after we adopted him and even were an intricate part of my work. I miss you so much and am so glad that you came into my life; we rescued each other. I will be blessed the day I pass and find you waiting for me so we can cross the rainbow bridge together. I love you and miss you Cali http://Circle-of-Light.com/Calidad/

With love, respect and devotion,
Your human,
Cassandra

I miss you so much baby!
I hope you are in a better place now.
It hurt to much to see you suffer.
I miss our times of snuggling, tunneling under the covers, feeling your paws around my neck and the sound of your strong purrs to make everything better.
You will always be missed.
You were my life!!
I love & miss you.

MOMMY

Caliente Corrizon (Cali)was the sweetest and loyal horse I have ever owned.
I had her for 15 years of her 26 years and we sent through a lot together,a hurricane, a tornado, and a flood.
Although she never had a baby of her own, she raised a lot of orphan foals.
I miss her sweet face looking in the door early in the morning waiting for her feed.
She always took care of me when we went riding.
And she was always funny, but her blindness and COPD just got the better of her, no matter what we tried to do for her.
I could not be selfish so I did what I had to do.
I miss her terribly.

Kathy Pyeatt

We'll always miss and love you.

Paul and Sue Koziel

We lost you today Callaway but I will always know where you are, in both of our hearts and minds.
We are so sorry but know you are now in a better place.
I will always love the seven years we had together and will never forget you.
We will always love you, you will always be our Cal, D, Duvalier!

Steve & Tracy Maynard

Calley was special I got her when a friend of mine had Cancer and she was concerned about cally.
She wanted a good home for her I told Jean that I would take Calley if no one else would take her.
I had "Cow Cat" for over 10 years.
I will miss her but she is with Jean now.
Love you cow cat.

Richard Goates

I love you my angel Calley.

Sarah

Calli you were such a good girl.When I got you you were wild as you could be.But after time and alot of love you were an angel.I don't know what happened to you but you were lost and couldn't be found.I tried my best to find you baby.I miss you every day and hope that you are alive and happy somewhere.I love you Calli!

Jennifer Allen

Best friend. She was always there when I needed someone.Callico was there for me when my father was dying and did not leave my side for almost two weeks when I broke my hip. I love her very much and always will. She was my best friend.

Sandy Gilbert

We found Callie hiding in our shed.
It was obvious she was quite old, had hearing and vision problems.
We nursed her and welcomed her into our family.
She had the greatest spring and summer..she put on weight, she got around better and she enjoyed helping me in the garden.
In one short week, she went downhill fast. She quickly lost weight and had such difficulty walking. I knew her body was ready for peace.
Callie died cradled in my arms.
The last voice she heard was Mom's telling her what a wonderful and beautiful girl she was.
Callie spent just over a year with us.
The vet thought she was about 17 or 18 years old.
I don't know what her life was like before she found us, but I do know her last year was fabulous.
She was a meesy, scruffy cat but we thought she was beautiful! She was so well loved. We will miss you Callie...thanks for being our girl!
Love,
Mom and Dad

CAllie I love and miss you so much.
I wish you were here with me.
You died so suddenly taken away from me far too soon.
I still think about you all the time and one day we will be reunited.
I hope you are now pain free and running around and playing with your mum.
I love you my baby girl.
Run pain free

Sue Winn

Callie, Our beloved Callie M' Gallie. Thank you for your years of love and devotion. Our hearts are breaking without you. We couldn't bear to watch you suffer so we had to let you go. Mom & Dad miss you with all our hearts. You were the best dog ever. It was "bedtime for Bonzo" but we will see you at the rainbow bridge.

Cassandra & Bruce Hancock

Callie was very tender, loving, and loyal. She loved our new baby like she was her own and would lick her to death if we would let her! It is so hard to say goodbye. We love you Sweetpea and miss you so very much. You will never be forgotten.

Jessica and Al Mikulskis

Good Girl Callie

Dean and Neitha

Dearest Friend Callie,
You passed quietly today surrounded by your family. Although we hated to let you go, you gently told us with your eyes that it was time.Our hearts and lives are forever fuller and richer because you embraced us completely with your loving spirit.We will continue to feel your presence in our lives and you will live in our hearts forever. Thank you for loving us!!

Beth and Ken Kinney

Callie was one of my four cats who we found as strays in our neighborhood, probably feral as she did not like to be hugged or petted. She had two kittens, one who was born dead and our Maxie who lived to be 10 years old. Both of my special friends died from diabetes. There housemates Andi and Sam miss them terribly and since Callie died will not go into the room where they all slept. I think they are grieving too. I miss her so much.

Cindi

We love you Callie! See you at the Bridge...

Although Callie wasn't on this earth for long, she will forever be in that deep, special place in my heart.
I love you, Cowwie Cat!

Heather

We love you Callie Kitten.
You were a fighter, a sweet little baby and a great friend during your short time here on earth.
May you have fun playing with the angels every day in the largest playground there is.
We miss you and anxiously await the day that we may be reunited again, whether here on earth, or in heaven.
You stole our hearts during your brief stay with us and we will LOVE you for eternity!!

Zachary Bunch, Sharon Hazelton, Jacob Bunch

My precious Callie, Thank you for being my kitty and hopping right into my heart that day 12 years ago when we found each other. Thank you for letting me be your Mommy and for all the love and fun and beauty you brought me, and for the lessons you taught me. You just left here today, and I miss you so.
Willie, your best friend Jack Russell, and companion for all those years misses you, too.
Will you give us a sign that you are fine- even though I know you are. I love you, Callie, dear, sweet, beautiful kitty.

Jacquelin

Callie was bred to hunt but she was much too gentle for that life. Instead, she spent her days lounging about and searching for golf balls on the nearby golf course. She was our princess and she knew it. Whenever she wanted something, she'd turn on her big brown puppy eyes and we'd just have to give in.

Callie was only six years old when she died-- much too young. On the morning of her death, she laid down outside and refused to get up. We took her to the local emergency clinic and the vets there told us that she had an auto-immune disorder that was causing her body to attack her own red blood cells and that there was no treatment for it-- our baby was going to die. We agreed that she would be put out of her misery after we left (it would have been far too much for us to watch), but while we were saying goodbye, Callie passed peacefully and naturally in her Mama's arms.

We'll miss you baby girl! Make sure and do all your tricks for God when you get there. He's a lucky one to have you by his side!

So much love,
Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, and Bill

Callie came to live with us on November 3rd of 1993.
She was two years old.
We had her for ten years.
She was an angel cat sent to us.
We enjoyed the time we had with her.
RIP, Callie!

Dianne Gallant

Callie came to live with us on November 25, 2002, and had a litter of kittens during her stay.
She became very sick two months after they were born, and she had to be put down.

We loved her and enjoyed her time with us.
We are now raising three of her babies, who are now four years old

RIP, Callie!

Dianne Gallant

We are better for having you in our family.
We will hold you ever in our hearts.

Jack and Kat

Callie - You were such a sweet cat although you had that calico temperament.
You always greeted us when we came home, always found the first available lap at night, & always slept with Mom.
You let us know that you loved us & loved being around us.
We miss you terribly.
Be happy at Rainbow Bridge & we will see you again some day.
Love, Mom & Dad

Rest in peace. We will miss you!

Inga

Callie you beautiful soul. You are now with the Angels and your other loved ones that have gone before you. You are the reason that I was Blessed with the Most Incredible Gift in the World (My DRACO) your Son. I Thankyou

Till that day, We all Love and Miss You Callie. Now God and The Angels are the Lucky ones........ All Our Love to You, and Your Family who is left here to grieve.....Donna, Jeff, Annie and Chicken

In memory of one of the best cats in the whole world and a child of mine.
I already miss your soft fur and cute pink nose.
The house feels empty without your presence and I feel sad that you have moved on and left me behind.
Wait for me at the other side till I come to be with you, my Beloved Callie.

Cindy Evans

It gives me some peace knowing that you and Thunder are together. It's been four years since you both made your journey.
I miss you and the way you snuggled in my arm every night when we went to bed...how I would love to hear your snoring one more time! You and Thunder were my children and I loved both of you dearly. May God bless both of you until we meet again. You are an angel. sweetie.

Nonie Kearney

callie was with me for 18 years, she loved me unconditionally and i loved her the same way.she made me laugh,she comforted me during times of distress. my heart is broken now that she is gone,but i know she is in a better place.

Amy Peters

My first cat.
She died of kidney failure on my 18th birthday.
I miss you and love you Callie.
Keep Pepper and Bailey in line for me!

Megan Oakley

Miss Callie: You have graced our lives for many years and will be deeply missed.
Run and play with Heckel, Jeckel and kitty.
Until we meet again, Mommy and your sister (non furry), Julia.

My dear sweet Callie angel, you so touched our lives the short time you were with us, and not a day goes by that I don't think about you.
i still miss you every morning, your little voice telling me all about the upcoming day.
I know that god had very special plans for you if he called you to be with him. He saw how special you were, and He created a special place just for you in heaven.
I know that you are looking down on us now, with Him, from above, and would want us to be strong, and not grieve.
Thank you for choosing us to be your "adopted" family; we will never forget you.

Kimberly and Danica Mc Andrews

Oh how I miss my beautiful Callie. Everyday seems to get harder! Callie was let out by my plumber who was here working when I got the call to go to the hospital for my mom, he assured me he would not let her out***he did! I am so sorry Cal I never should have trusted or left you alone! We called and called and looked and looked we could not find her**the next morning there lay her beautiful body in the gutter two houses down! Callie's left eye was missing and blood from her mouth! God I hope my baby did not suffer! My house is empty without Callie here her sister Bluie had to be hospitalized two times as she would not eat or drink and the little black baby that I have been caring for loved Callie! No one else liked Baby but Callie she thought it was hers! I am so very depressed as my entire family***yes I have lost many over the years but always from old age this I CAN NOT HANDLE!!!! Callie you will always be loved I can not wait for the day to hold you again and pet your beautiful face and to hear the sound of you purring!! The tears will never ever go NEVER!!!! Love you always
Mommie Bluie & "Your Baby" God Cal I wish you were here!!!! I wish God gave me something and left you here!! This is so very sad too much sadness in my heart, I do not even want to go on if we have to be apart. LOVE YOU BABY!!!!!!

Carol Bluie & Baby

Baby Spike, Taupie, Tabbie, Baby Callie, and Baby Midnight, even though you were on this earth for a very short time, you were so loved.
God had such special plans for you to have called you away so early.
Mommie Callie misses you, and we do, too.
We will never forget you.
Watch over all your new angel friends, and us, too, "God's littlest angels."

Kimberly and Danica Mc Andrews

The most beautiful girl in the world.

Candy

Cally we are going to miss you, you were our shining star. You worked so hard for us and gave us such pleasure.
Don't know what we will do without you.
love,
mom and dad

Our little Cally returned our love 10 fold.
She is the only pet that would actual hug you back. We have been greiving for a week and we don't think it will ever be any easier.
I know she is better off as she had lost her sight from catarics and could not find her way around. We realize she was nearly 14 but that don't make it easier.

Robert & Ann Jones

Mary Mom

Calvin,
you were the best little dog.
You never complained and kept me entertained and feeling secure and loved.
Your lovable, quirky ways made you seem like a puppy.
I'm sorry you couldn't be with us longer.
The time slipped away so quickly... too quickly.
I really miss you and feel lost without you.
I'll remember you always.
You'll always be my special "puppy."
Good-bye for now, my dear little friend.

With all the possible love I have,

Your Daddy

For being the runt of the litter, you sure did grow into a big boy!
You were such an awesome cat and no other can take your place!
Keep Kee Kee company until we meet again!

Barb Demeulenaere

the best cat I ever had-a gentle giant and loved so much.

Jane E. Posvic

Goodbye, Calvin.
You were the best cat.
You were a mighty hunter who brought us all manner of critters as love offerings.
You were my brave boy who chased big dogs out of our yard and whacked a 150 lb. dog on the nose just to show him who was boss.
You were a love sponge who loved to have his tummy rubbed and
who slept cuddled next to me every night with your head on the pillow.
I had you for fourteen years, you were my first baby.
I will never forget you.
Love, mama.

With much love for our "Snappy Pappy".
We loved you so much and will never forget you.
You were such a handsome greyhound!

Mary Lee

Our beloved Calvin,
You were a good cat. Never a dull moment with you around. I love you and miss you very much. I wish Ella would have known how sweet you were. I'm so sorry for not being there to protect you and not being there when you went home. I will see you again and cannot wait. You drove us crazy at times but we loved you very much. Misty and Moose miss you too!

Kathrine

You cam into our lives in the fall.
You were so small we could hold you in the palm of our hands.
You always talked to us when you wanted out attention and reached out with your paws to let us know you loved us.
You were there one minute and gone the next.
I will never forget the love you showed to all your friends.
Now, you can play with Hobbes as you used to many years ago.
God holds us all in his hands and I know he made a place for all good kitties like you. We love you and miss you.

Kristina Gluth

Calvin Klein, you will be in our hearts forever.
There will never be another dog as loyal and faithful as you.
Your loving nature will always be remembered.
You will have a special place in my heart forever.
Special love and kisses until we meet again. Love, Mom

Our best friend and companion of 17 3/4 years passed quietly on Saturday, comforted in the loving embraces of his family. He taught us how to be a cat and we taught him how to be a human and we met beautifully halfway. We have never known a more loving, caring & gentle spirit. He will be greatly missed.

Susan Mandel

Calzhi was with me for 12 years. Always by my side. There for me through tough times.Her love was unconditional to the end. I miss her terribly & life just feels empty at the moment.I know that she is with me & feels my messages of love. I will always love & remember my best mate. Hope you are in heaven, chasing endless balls, my girl. Love you xxxxx

Melissa

To my little buddy who always hogged the bed. I will miss you dearly. The ear nibbling, the grunting and messy hair fixing. I know you are in a better place but it does not make it any easier. It was all so fast, your mother and I really did not want to let you go but we know we did the right thing so there was no suffering. We will meet up again and go feed the fish again some day. Love always, Dad.

CAMEO
Cameo was a very special cat.
He came into my life when i was 17 and He was the most special cat i have ever met.
Everyone who ever met cameo couldn't get over how special he was.
He loved everyone.
He went through a lot in his life.
He had a very rough life he lost his right eye about 6 years ago but, he made it through that and was as sweet and caring as any cat could be.
He had seizures and then he had some heart problems.
In the end his heart took him.
I had to have him put to sleep on Oct 24 of 2006.
It was the worst day of my life.
I loved my cat so much.
Cameo you will really be missed and i love you sooo much.
There will never be another animal in this world that will ever be able to replace you..

Cameo

Laura

My angel...telling you goodbye was the hardest thing I ever did. I love you for always. May you enjoy your whole and perfect body on the Rainbow Bridge and play glorious games of King of the Mountain with Dexter. Till we meet again, all my love.

Lisa

Cameron was the brighest and most beloved cat I have ever owned.
When he was a kitten he would catch and retrieve milk carton rings.
I would wake up with rings on me in the bed and Cameron would be ready to play. Cameron trusted me so much, that when I would take a bath he would sit on the side of the tub and wait for me to cup my hands so that he could get a drink.
He would walk onto my leg in the middle of the tub to drink.
What trust!
Cameron had to be put to sleep on 2/3/2007 due to the progressing discomfort of the disease FIP.
What a mean disease.
Cameron honey, Mommy misses you and I hope you are on Grammy's lap being petted.
I am looking forward to the day when I can be the one petting you.
Mommy loves you.

Cami went to be with her sister, Mandy Knesal,who has been waiting for her.
You are both in my heart and in my thoughts always until I join you and then the chain will be unbroken again.

Diane Knesal

She loved all of us every minute of every day with pure joy. Her face speaks of her gentle spirit and constant devotion to each human around her at any time.
Her best friend Bow (lab) still comes to see if she can come and play.
He is howling with misery without her. Me too. Her companionship is so missed.
We miss her terribly. A true best friend.
A river of tears for you sweet angle!

The Rodgers Family

We always love you. You were more than a friend, you were family. Thanks for every minute of your beatiful life.

Jennifer, Julio and Santiago Garcia

Mi chiquita, you brought so much happiness into my life and I will never forget you. I miss you so much
Cami. I know we'll meet again, until then my little girl.
Love,
Mama

We love you Camilla, and miss you alot! You were taken away from us so quickly. I miss your hugs, you were a fantastic friend to me.

Jorge Y Karina

To the sweetest most loving dog in the whole world.
Everyone who met you instantly loved you.
You touched so many lives and comforted so many people when they needed you most.
You brought more joy into our lives than you will ever know.
You were born to cuddle, and lived a good life with the people who loved to cuddle you.
We wait to see you waiting on the gates of heaven, ready to greet us when it's our time.

Bonnie Bouckley

We will miss you so much our dear beloved Camper, you were a great companion a vets and groomers dream dog because of your disposition and wonderful attitude. We are so happy you got to run on the beach at the Gulf of Mexico, run up the sand dunes in Alamagardo and see the beautiful mts. of Colorado, these are some of the things we remember to help us in our grieving. We hope God is now feeding you from his table.

Love your mom and papa

Cana, you were such a joy to me.
I love you very much and miss you so much.
I miss your snuggling with me in the bed and walking to the park.
Everyone who saw you loved you.
I am sorry you got so sick so fast, but I know you are having fun at the Rainbow Bridge and I know you are well and whole again.
I'll be with you soon and we'll play together and walk together again.

Chrissie, Heather, Haley, Deacon, Puff and Hubbell all miss you too.

Love,
Mom

Oh Canada, I miss your velvet ears, wet nose, and soulful eyes. Thank you for your unconditional, joyful love.

I miss you dearly every day, my arms feel so empty without you to hold.
You were so loved and always will be.
I had 17 wonderful years with you and hoped for more but your little body just wore out.
I still listen for you to get up in the middle of the night and I wake up listing for you to tell me it is breakfast time and I miss going on our morning strolls.
I just hope you know how much I loved you and my heart is breaking without you here.
I miss you Candice and love you with all of my heart.
I will see you again one day in heaven.

Candie you were always there for us with your quiet dignity, a purr, sitting on our laps watching TV, stealing our seats in the kitchen and just being there.
We will miss you so much.
You are such a part of our family.
Trooper and Cocoa will miss you too.
We love you.

Anthony, Janice, Ant, Chris and Bri

Now you can chase as many vacuums and cats

as you want.
Wait for us to see you again our little baby.

You meant the world to me.
The hole in my heart is huge, but I know I will see you again.
I will always live with you in my thoughts, and until I see you again, may you rest and play peacefully.
Love always, your mommy

Buster & Beverly Cleveland

in memory of candy. missed by your five sisters.

Chris Wills

Candy will be sorely missed. Her total free love and devotion will be sorely missed. She still is a deep part of our family and will never be forgotten and will be loved for ever.

Bill and Barb Vass

You were my best friend, my four legged daughter and I will miss you dearly.My tears remember the joy and wonderful fun we had in Chicago and Los Angeles. I remember going to Lincoln Park with you every day and watched you chase the squirrels. I remember all the long hikes we had in Los Angeles enjoying our new home together. We both experienced walking up mountains in Hollywood and learning the city together. I know you were in pain the last few days of your life. I couldn't bear to think of an ending though it was in sight. You died peacefully. I wish I were there when it happened but it was probably a blessing that I wasn't. Our dear neighbor put your body to its final rest in a beautiful box with a flower on top. That's because you were so special to me and to so many people and dogs in the area. Your friends in Chicago remember you fondly.

My sweet baby, I will give you a beautiful Memorial Service just as I did with Mitzie and George several years back.

I will miss you so much. We lived a wonderful 15 years together. I can still remember the day I adopted you at the Anti-Cruelty Society. I felt we were meant to be and we were.

Rest peacfully and know that I will always love you.

Susan Margolis

Candy Lee
you brought such joy and love into the big guys and my life.
We miss you so much as do the furry thing and Aunty Sharon.

I will look for you at the Rainbow Bridge when I come home.

WE LOVE YOU!!!

Karen & Ed

Candy - you only passed away on Saturday but I am so heartbroken.
I know that Dad will take care of you until I am with both of you again.
You were my beloved companion for 13 years and the best love of my life.
I am glad that I could spend time with you after your passing for departure to cremation.
You are my life and world - it will never be the same.

Pam

To our very dear Cancan girl,

Just to let you know how much Mama, Daddy, Mommy and Hank missed you.

Mama will be planting a lot of beautiful plants and flowers on your grave site. I can even have lunch there since it is under a big tree. This way you can eat with Mama sometimes okay Baby?

I will be with you all the time.

Mama

We love you Cane with all our heart's and we will all see you in Heaven baby

Lewis Farber

Cane was my angel.
He came to me at a time in my life when I needed him most.
I didn't know I needed him, but someone higher up sure did.
I wasn't even looking for a dog at the time, but the moment I saw him, I knew.
I was blessed with Cane for 2 years and three months, but it felt like a lifetime.
It's hard to put into words how amazing he is/was.
I have lost my best friend, my companion.
I will miss you for the rest of my days Caney until I can meet you on the other side and give you those big neck hugs that I swear, I know you were hugging me back.
I wish you peace Caney Baby!
I love you, I love you, I love you!!!!!

Jennifer St.Clair

You are beautiful, caring, loving and a wonderful part of our family. You will be missed greatly but know that you will for ever live in all our hearths. We love you so much! Until we meet again, a treat will always be in your plate.

The Torres Family

Capone was my daughter's baby.
He was a huge dog (Great Dane) with an even bigger heart.He will be greatly missed.
Although he had a short time on this earth, he had a great life with the love of my daughter, Jessie. He will always have a place in our hearts. We will see him again in heaven.
Love, Grandma Kathy
P.S. Capone, take care of Grandma.

My sweet Cappy, my "best boy", my heart is torn in half, it is one year later and I am not over you.
Other furbabies are in my life now, but you were that one in a million special soul mate.
My tears are still flowing just at the thought of how much I miss your sweet face, your purr, your soft golden eyes.
I hope I did right by you, you stayed with me 15 months extra months and I treasured every second of that borrowed time with you.
I hope you found Cadie at the Bridge, my last words to you were "go find Cadie, she's waiting for you".
She was your special girl, we both missed her when she left us.
I hope you are together and whole and happy now, waiting for me someday to be with you both again.
I miss you both so much.
Love forever, Your Mommy

A precious little bird, so loving and dear to me and Daddy.
You brought joy to all who met you and showed how sweet a bird can be even to non bird lovers.
Thank you for staying with us as long as you did.
I wish it could have been longer.
We will see you again along with all the other precious babies we have had.
You are now in God's embrace.

Renee & Ken Beers

Captain was the sweetest, gentlest and most loving cat imaginable.
We were lucky to have him for 20 years.
We will never forget the kitten with the big ears who stole our hearts who grew into the best companion anyone could want.

Marie

Captain Jack left me after a brief struggle with pneumonia.
I miss him very much

Alex Packer

My bubby Jack was laid to rest this past Wednesday.
He was a very lovable spunky 7 month old kitten, who in the matter of a week, became fatally ill with the F.I.P. Disease.
I had never heard of this disease before, and am educating myself on it now, but I wish more cat owners knew about it and that you can have F.I.P and F.I.V. tests done for a reasonable price.
That way your little bubby doesnt have to suffer either.
Jack will be dearly missed, never replaced, by our adult cat and us. It is a very sad time when you lose something you love and care about so much.

Dawneen

Dear little Captain will be sadly missed by all who loved him so dearly.
His fur sister Molly Mae who took care of him after he lost his sight, Grandma, and Grandpa, and Katie and aunt Pat will forever have him in our memories.
You were well loved little one and will be a precious memory for all of us.

Ray and Jean Estes

Captain Toby you were a great dock dog.
You always greeted all the dock residents with a wagging tail and a happy to see you attitude.

You'll be greatly missed on Dock EE at Calvert Marina.

We'll all meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

Lori & Mike Pirato

We love and will miss you always our beautiful Trip. You brought us so much love and we love you so very much.
Sid misses you too.
I hope you understand why we had to make the decision.
We could see your pain and frustration after the seizures for you wanted so to get up and walk and be near us.
Our wonderful memories of you will enable you to live forever in our hearts and we will see you at the Rainbow Bridge and will look forward to your wonderful hello like that howl you would howl when Papa came home and you greeted him at the door.
I hope you are romping and romping and have fun playing with all the other dogs at the Rainbow Bridge.
You always wanted to play with most dogs you would see on your walks.

Love you so much, Trip

Jane Miller

Cara was that one dog that is special, the most well behaved, well mannered dog I've ever had.
She was sweet to the very end and I love and miss her very much.

Melanie Sickafus

We love you Caramel and we are missing you dearly.
Hootie lost his best friend.
He looks for you out the window every day.
How we miss watching you two wrestle.
We miss how much you talked - you were quite the chatterbox and how you taught Hootie to talk.
You taught Hootie how to open the shower door and how to open the patio door and sneak out of the house and Hootie taught you how to drink out of the faucet.
I keep looking for you walking up the driveway or in the cul-de-sac but you are not there.
I look in the chair expecting to see you sleeping on your back with your paws up in the air but you are not there.
Thanks for all of the joy and memories that you gave us.
I am sorry and heartbroken that you did not make it.
You will always be in my heart and I will never forget you.
I miss you so much. It is so hard imagining that we will never see you here again.
Until we go over that bridge, remember we will always love you.

Monika Ryan

Carbo, my special boy.
You blessed our lives for 12 short years.
And you blessed many lives as a therapy dog for all of those years.

I miss you and love you with all my heart.
But I am happy that you are young and healthy again, with the other family members who passed before.

I will always remember you, my sweet boy.

Love Mom

If tears could build a stairway, and memory a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again.

Charlotte Stipp

This faithful and loving friend has been gone for seventeen years, but I remember him often and on each of his birthday anniversaries and passing anniversaries I remember him in my diary.
Like the beloved pets of all who use this site, he made life richer for everyone in the family.

Estelene Bodenhamer

Dearest Cargo... My heart aches for you... You were the most loving lil buddy.. Who only had a very short time here with us.
You were larger than life and you touched so many hearts... Mine especially.
With one look from you, you had me from Hello... I pray that you are with
My Shelby, Josie, Jake and Callie and all others that have gone before you... I see you all running playfully in a beautiful field of flowers up on Rainbow Bridge... "If Tears Could Build A Stairway. And Memories a Lane.
I'd Walk Right Up to Heaven and Bring You Home Again..." Until We Meet Again, My Lil Man... take care of each other... I Love You I Miss You With All My Heart and Soul... Always and Forever ...Auntie xoxoxox

10 years... too short a time....
I was looking forward to so many more with you my dearest, darling dog. I can't believe you are gone,
I keep seeing you on your cushion in the sun.
I keep feeling your head under my hand, I keep seeing your dark brown eyes looking at me so lovingly.

We did much together you and I.
The shows, the travelling, the therapy work with the kids.
You were so much loved by many more than me, but not as much - I promise you that my girl.
You were the brightest star in my day, you always made me laugh - I really don't know how I can ever cope without you.
Your illness was so sudden and severe, you seemed to be gone in a flash with no prior warnings.
I am finding it very hard to be without you... Bronte, Scottie and the cats are doing their best to help me but you know and I know that what has been broken can never be mended until we are together again.
Meanwhile you have Holly, Kelly and Gannie to help you on your way.

Goodbye my very special girl my tears cloud my eyes whenever I think of you and try to imagine going on without you in my life.

Godbless - you were more than just a dog you were my soul

Tears and love

Mom

(Sheila Wills)

Sandy Flanagan

Carlee was a wonderful bird.
But, she was not just a bird.
She was a memeber of my family.
I will miss her greeting me by chirping at me when walked through my door.
Thank you for being my wonderful first pet when I moved out on my own.
You were a wonderful friend and "roomie."
You always kept me company when I was lonely.
I love you Carlee.
I will never forget you.
I will keep your memories close to my heart.
I can't wait for the time when I can see you again.
I love you my special bird.

Jennifer

The joy and companionship you gave me over the past 13 years is deeply missed. I miss your beautiful blue eyes and smiling face looking so gently at me. I miss holding you and kissing you. I miss everything about you. I have a emptiness in my heart that I do not know how to fill. I did not have children, you were my son everyone knew that and would ask about you as they would if you were humane. I love Carletto and thank you for being such a special part of my life, your first thought was always for me you gave so much and were so easily pleased. My heart longs for you and hopes that you are in a place where everything is given back to you.

Marilyn

My Carlos, you were the most loving skunk that ever lived. I will miss your little face, your silly paws, your sweet sighs when I held you at night and you lay with your face up against my pillow, snoring in your sweet slumber. You brought joy to many people who met you and were excited to see and pet a real live skunk; each person said "He is SO soft!" and commented how wonderful you smell. I guess they thought you might not be descented.
You taught surprised aquaintences and friends that skunks are not 'rodents' nor are they pests and "critters".
You taught them that you are a loving, cuddly and soft, pure spirit who is truly bonded to your mommy. You taught even skeptics that you love and have feelings, just like we do. You and I brought comfort and peace to friends, co-workers and yes, even patients in the ER when I brought you to work with me. My heart is broken in a trillion pieces now that you are gone. I hope and pray each minute I will be with you again.
Baby boy, my baby toy, I love you more than life itself.
"Always remember and Never Forget"
Love,
Mommy.

Carlos, Carlos come on baby we are going out, Carlos come on honey, come to mommie...I walk into the bedroom to look for you, then it hit me, you are in heaven now.
I sat on the bed crying with my arms crossed around me trying to hug you, yelling come back to me, but there was no answer.
My little baby Carlos I know you are sitting next to God and putting that little paw on his lap as you did to me. When I first met you 7 years ago I fell in love with you, and as the years pass by you became my little son, the son that I always wanted. I miss you baby, I love you, te amore mucho.
Thank you for allowing me to be in your life and calling you my SON

Love always
Mommie Yvette

Sharon Howell

He left yesterday. If I'd had the knowledge that I have today, I never would have let him go. I miss him more that I would have ever imagined.

Nancy McCartan

Carmalitia Galore was my long time companion and road dawg.
We had many grand adventures together. We surivied earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes (Katrina). She touched so many lives in her years here on earth. People who were afraid of dogs always learned to like her and their whole attitude changed. Children so loved her and she loved them as well.
I know that Carmen has gone on and is healthy and happy again. It was a very hard decision but one that was right to do.
I will never gorget her sighs when she did not want to do something. How she would look at me with that "now what" look. She was so funny. I will see her someday but until then she will be missed.

Evy

Thank you Carmelita for the years of pleasure you have given so many people.
You were a champion in the ring and in the hearts of all who knew you. I thank you for the two very special members of our family you have left behind. I'm so happy we were able to get the beautiful three generation portrait done last week. You touched us all, we'll see you on the other side darling.

Beth Sidell

Carmen will always be loved by her family.

Thearon, Kim, Andrew, Matt Hooks and Henderson

Carmen, You walk with me.
I feel your footsteps on my bed.
You knew my feelings. You will never leave me.
Love keeps us together. Sweet kitty.

PJ

Carmen was a good dog. She was very much loved and cared for. We will miss her so very much. All of her friends here on earth, kitties.. Oreo, Missy, Streak, Roxy, Sophie, Weeble, Bandit, Coal, Skunky, Tubby, Sassy, Ani, and Fluffy. Dogs Venus, Red, Ranger, Sandy, Max II, Red, Iggy and Tony, Maddie and Max will remain here with us. Those who went before her are kitties Cookie, Ceasar, and Sugar; dogs Chelsey and Sheena. All of those we mentioned we carry in our hearts forever and we still have many more that remain with us. Carmen, we still love you. Forever in our hearts,
Momma (Pat) and Daddy (Mark)

For a very special dog that met a whole lot to his family and friends and will be desperately missed.

Jen/Nate

our lovely old boy soldiered on
but the time came to say goodbye,constant companion, always there with his happy face,ready to play,stubborn at times but always ready for a cuddle & claiming the bed,missed by his companion Fergus & his human companions.

Heather Wilson

Our Carrie, an adopted greyhound, was our first dog and was such a sweet, gentle soul whom we loved dearly and miss terribly.
The best tribute that we could make to her is that she was such a wonderful girl that she inspired us to enter on a journey that saved the lives of many other greyhounds.
We adopted a second greyhound and became very active in greyhound rescue all because of Carrie.

When Carrie came to us as a former race dog, she had so much to learn about life in a home, toys, affection, and more.
It didn’t take her long to begin to enjoy the simple things in life that she had never had in her first four years…things like getting and giving love, playing with toys, eating a treat, and enjoying the sun...oh how she enjoyed the sun.
We could always gauge the weather by seeing if Carrie thought it was fit to sunbathe.
We had eight wonderful years with her, and we will miss her forever.

Joe and Jamie Empert

We saved Carrot Boy from the pound on his last allowed day when he was 6 weeks old.
He was so scrawny no one else wanted him.
He grew up to be a strapping lad.
He loved corn on the cob.

Ame Strube

Carson, you sweet boy, will surely be missed. What a wonderful, goofy guy you were. I hope you are laughing now like you did when you let me tickle you. Go find Grandma Pete--she will want to see you too. I love you, buddy.

Mary

Carter,
From the first day I walked into that shelter, you melted my heart. Those big brown, happy eyes and that spunk sucked me in. You were a challenge but I loved having you in my life.
You made me happy, you made me feel safe.
You were my family when everyone else was far away.
There is nothing that can take away the pain I feel no that you are gone.
I love you miss you very much.
We will play again soon buddy, I promise!

Jessica

Carter,

I miss you so much sweetheart!
You provided me with so much unconditional love, happiness, peace, joy, companionship, excitment, adventure, fun, and affection.
I am so grateful for everything that you gave to me.
I would give anything to have one more of your stinky kisses.
My heart aches to have you follow me around the apartment.
I wish when I walked in the door I would see you jumping up and down and barking so loud.
You are in heaven, and I can't wait till the day I will see your adorable face again.
I love you so much!!
You will always be closest to my heart, and always in my thoughts and prayers!!
Love you so much!!

Mindy

Our best friend and buddy....we miss you so much already. Many tears have been shed and continue to fall.
We'll never forget you.....

Dana & Brian Becton

Rose

My Casey Girl was a very special little girl to me. She was the youngest of my five chihuahuas and I always knew that she would be the first to go. I just wish that she wasn't sick. It happened so quick. She was panting so hard and so fast that I just didn't know what to do. I love you Casey. I love you so much. I am hurting . The empty spot that I have will never go away. All I want is to pet your little head and give you kisses. It's alright to kiss me back. You are very special and I will miss you always. Casey Girl ,Girly Girly.Please come to me and tell me that you are doing fine now. Just once.Ilove you.

Rose De Leon

We lost one of the major loves in our life..Casey. She was a beautiful large Red Golden Retriever and Dec 18th the illness took over
her body and we had to say goodbye.
Are hearts broke and we miss her every day.

Lynne

A loved dog who loved deeply in return.
Talking, walking, sharing life...thank you, Casey!

Casey was just the sweetness little boy.
He was also cute and cuddly.
He always followed me around the house.
I miss you, Baby Boy. I will always love you.
Love, Mommy.

Our baby girl, words cannot express how much I miss you every day.
The joy you brought to all of our lives, the love I saw in your eyes every day can never be replaced.
I hope all of your pain and suffering is gone now.
Someday we will play together again.

Meagan

Dear Casey,
We will always love you and miss you!

Sue Starr

CASEY PASSED SUDDENLY AND WAS TAKEN FROM ME AND MY FAMILY, SHE WAS THE BEST GERMAN SHEPHERD ANY ONE COULD ASK FOR, LOVING, CARING, AND DEVOTED. WE WILL MISS HER AND SHE WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS.

Sue

Dear Casey, Thank you for being so special to your 'Mommy' and 'Daddy'.
You always knew when Mommy wasn't feeling well and you would always knew what to do to make her feel better.
You always helped Daddy relax after a day at the office by greeting him at the door and playing cat games.
You also helped Mommy and Daddy with chores around the house by supervising.
We miss you so very much.
The house is so empty without you. But our hearts and minds are so full of wonderful memories of you.
We know that you are in Heaven and that you are with all of our loved ones that have passed.
We also know that you are no longer sick and that you are watching over us.
Love always, Mommy and Daddy.

Bob and Sherry

Casey and I belonged to eachother for 14 years.
I still feel her walking beside me.
I love you, Casey!

Bonnie Bryde Malmberg

I was blessed to become Casey's mom when he was almost 3; I was his third owner. Casey had health problems all his life but he took them in stride and was the sweetest, gentlest soul I ever met. He was with me through the good times and the bad, and accepted the addition of 2 kitties to our household with nothing but love and good-natured acceptance. He was dearly loved and is sorely missed. I hope he is playing with Krissa and Sierra and even little Indy at the Bridge. I will so you there, sweet pea!

Colleen W

Casey,
In loving memory
It was you that kept us safe at night,barking at things only you saw or heard without any light.
Now the house is not the same.You brought sunshine when it would rain.
Mommy and Daddy miss you so much our trusting companion has now left us. You never showed us sorrow or pain even when the final moment came. You were our very special friend from the beginning up to the end.
We will always Love you and miss you

Mommy & Daddy

Casey their are few words. You are amazing. We love you so much, and will miss you forever. I am glad you are no longer suffering, and you are in peace. Hope to see you again someday.

Sarah

My sweet little girl.
You will be missed but will always be in my heart.

Sandy

Casey was our loving cat for 16 years and today she passed peacefully away in Edward's arms.
She loved, and was loved, unconditionnaly and she will be missed with all our hearts.
We love you Casey.
Give a kiss to our Snoopy in heaven.

Cynthia, Edward, Peter and Riley

Casey Bub Bub boy! Daddy, Paw-Paw & Sissy miss you so much. We have saved your toys and will keep them for you until next time we meet. We love you and keep you in our hearts forever. Love Daddy, Paw-Paw & Sister Cinnamon

Still talk about you son, You were the best friend I needed at time. Are you playing fetch, frisby? Do they have cars in heaven? Keep waiting for me buddy, its been 27 years but I'll never forget you. You left early hope your feeling better. Luv Mom & Dad

We got Casey from the Humane Society in St. Paul, MN.
We were walking another dog and someone else was walking Casey.
They asked to switch.
We did and took Casey (KC was his name at the time)to a grassy spot.
Casey rolled onto my husband's lap.
He looked at me, I looked at him, we both looked at Casey and that was it.
He was ours.
Already about 5 years old, he was already housebroken.
He was a great dog.
Never had an accident in the house, except in the last months when he just couldn't control anything.
He put up with 2 cats.
Then he put up with the addition of another cat, 2 more dogs and a guinea pig.
We all lived happily ever after.

Mary and Todd Watson

Casey,

It has almost been a year, and sometimes it seems like forever and other times it seems like yesterday,the loss of you has been so hard and not getting any easier,I can still sometimes smell you,so I know you are still here looking over me and Daddy.wish you were still here as long as you wasn't sick and hurting.I know now there is no pain and that makes it easier.Love You so much.

Mom

Casey was a neighborhood cat who preferred the outside and loved to visit a lot of the neighbors.
He was so sweet and loved and was loved so much.
We miss him but know he is in a much better place and that he is playing with all the other angel kitties.

Zoe Hall

I will always love you and always miss you my puppy.
Until we meet again on the Rainbow Bridge - all my love - Mommy

Vicki Abrahamson

When we adopted you, you were homeless and abused. We loved you and gave you a good home.
You died in your sleep, you did not suffer and for that we are thankful. We were so privileged to have you in our lives, and you showed your gratitude to us by your unquestionable loyalty and love. We will miss you Casey, now you are with our little Reba at Rainbow Bridge

Karen

Hope the rainbow bridge is lots of fun, you loved to have fun.
We miss you so very much Casey, you were the sunshine in our lives.
We will never forget our tubby little golden girl.
xxxxxxxxxx

Mandy, Damien, Joel and Sam

You have left a hole in my heart - I will miss and love you always.

Patty

Casey we all miss you so much.
You were taken much too soon.
I hope you are playing with Tugger whereever you are.

Cathy Schmidt

Casey was our first "baby". She lived a long, great life. In her prime she was so much fun but as it happens to all of us, age kicked in. She was still feisty in her old age but she was not the same girl we knew and loved when we first got her. It was not fair to have her suffer any longer. We will love her and miss her dearly.

Martyne, Dave, Alex & Zach Rockefeller

Our beloved Casey has left on her final adventure. She is now free to do whatever she wants with no pain. We miss her so much but know that one day we will be together again.

Bryan Mercer, Richard Wilson & Lindsey

You were one in a million, Casey.
You brought such joy and love to us over the last seven years. You left us far too soon but we know you are healthy and at peace now. You are in our hearts forever. When we come into the house we still expect to see you there all excited with your tail wagging! Jeff misses the truck rides you used to take with him. I miss when you would come up a give me a kiss when I needed one the most.Godspeed Casey. Love you forever.

Jeff, Kathy, Jeffrey, Ryanne and Jenna Fose

We miss you very much!!!! Hope you find a new racquetball to get!!

Sharon

My little buddy Casey passed to Rainbow Bridge and I miss him terribly. He was a great companion and through my tears I am focusing on the good times we had. I hope his pain is gone and he is at Rainbow Bridge playing with his little sister Katie who went to Rainbow Bridge 2 years ago.

Terry

I couldn't have loved you more if you had been my child.
What a wonderful, loving and smart cat.
Booda, I miss you so much.

Jeannie and Dennis Malatesta

Casey was such an energetic, sweet, and faithful kitty who loved keeping me company in the bathroom every morning as I got ready for work.
Her favorite things included catnip toys and fetching sparkle balls when we would throw them for her.
Anyone who took the time to give her a little affection was rewarded with the loudest purr imaginable.
She was a wonderful family pet and I will miss her terribly.
Karyn Wajda

Casey was seven years old when we got him from the Humane Society. For some inexplicable reason, he had been sent back twice by families who didn't want to keep him. The only reason I can think of is because he was meant to come to us to live out his life. He lived to be fifteen. He was beautiful and the most loving dog (schipperkes are not known to be affectionate) but he was a real lover dog. Toward the end of his precious life he was confused, and in pain from severe arthritis. We tried everything, pain meds, accupuncture, swim therapy, massage therapy, herbal treatment and may traditional pain meds. He was on Morphine the last few days and was crying alot. he never really stopped liking treats and when he was in for the euthanasia they gave us cheese slices to feed him. It was nice of them and he gobbled it up, but I CANNOT get that picture out of my head now. I dreamed the other night that we were at the vet's office to have him put to sleep and I told them I had changed my mind and I wanted to take him home. I went to pick him up to leave and they said I couldn't leave. I tried to run with him but they chased me and took him. I stood inthe hall thinking they were killing him and I should have stopped it. it was the worst nightmare I have had in my life. Of course it was nothing like the reality, they were very kind. I keep thinking about it though and I keep looking at the spot where his bed used to be and where his bowl was and his toys. It is similar to when my mother died, he was family too. I love him and I'll never ever forget that angel.

Miles, Robin, Sheldon and Jilly Dog Moffeit

Casey was with us before the birth of our first child almost 13 years ago and she was a very big part of our family. When she passed last week a very big part of our hearts went with her. Thankfully the vet was able to come to our house to help her and the whole family was able to be there with her as she moved on.

Brian & Nicole LeBreton

My beloved friend Casey, 2 months today I lost you so fast to a stomach tumor, before I really knew what was happening you were so skinny and very sick.
I can't believe you have been gone from me for 2 months, the pain does not get any better, the only comfort I have is I know you knew how much you were loved, you were my best friend and you knew it.
I would have done anything to save
you, and I tried my hardest to make you better the last few days before you died, I had no idea you had a tumor.
Oh, Casey every where I look everything reminds me of you, I am thankful you are no longer sick, but I wish you were still here with me, even though you were 10 1/2 years old, I still feel like cancer took you from me way to soon.
But, I am so thankful for the time I did have you, you and I had a great 10 1/2 years together, it has been so hard for me to go out and feed the horses and ducks without, you never wanted to go outside unless you went with me.
I miss you more than anything Casey boy, there are times when I look outside and just for a second I think I saw you laying in the grass, you were my best friend and I will never be able to replace you, rest in peace my boy, until we meet again.
luv, your momma.

We miss and love you Casey

Lindsay & Caryn

Casey,

I love you!
You were my best friend - always there for me through good times and bad.
I thank you for all the love and comfort you gave me through the years. You've been gone 2 weeks today and I miss you so much.
I will never forget you.

Christine O

Casey was my best friend, I will always miss him.

Vicki

May Casey rest in peace and enjoy all of the ice cubes, cheese, and ice cream that she can get!
Love,
Her Family

Casey,
I miss you so much, I can not believe it has been a month since you passed away so fast.
One minute you were fine and the next I have my beloved friend who is very sick who I can not save.

I tried my hardest to save you, I had no idea that you had a tumor in your stomache until the vet opened you up, and you passed away on the operating table. The day of your surgery I was so afraid because you were so weak from not eating and vomiting, but even when I dropped you off at the vets office I did not think I would never get to hold you again. Casey you brought so much to my life, I will never forget you. Before I took you to the vet that morning, we sat together on the floor at home, I told you no matter what happened I will never forget you, I know you understood what I was saying, you were nudging me with your nose, like you always did, I know you were telling me that you loved me.

I am so glad we had that moment together, because when the vet called and told me what he had found and that you had passed away, my life totally changed at that moment. You were so active and healthy until the end, I am so thankful for that, 10 1/2 years together, I never thought of you getting old, you were so active. You and I had so much fun feeding my horses together, you loved to watch your ducks out in the pasture. I wish you would have not gotten that tumor, everything else with you was all normal, that tumor took your life, I will never forget you my beloved friend, I miss you so much sitting with me on the couch, laying on me, loving me, I hope to get to see you again some day my beloved Aussie Friend.

Luv From Your Momma

Casey we miss you very very much.
You gave us so much fun in our lives.
I am sorry that you got sick and hope you are better now. It was a great four years, I only wish we had more. Know that you are loved and missed very much. Love Mommy

To My Swet Little Casey
Today has been one of the worst days of my life - the vets could not make you better. You were my "fuzzy" little buddy, you were my best bud hangin' with me every day while I work away at the computer. Every day you made me laugh with your silliness, your "Bucking Bronco" jumps, calling me when the fridge door opened, or just hanging out watching TV. From the moment we brought you home you stole my hear and today that heart has been shattered - I am going to miss you so very, very much. I am glad you are now in a better place with no pain and you can once again eat your beloved oranges and grapes pain free. I love you my sweet little buddy and will miss you with all my heart forever. Luv - Mommy

I Love you Casey

Jenna Cunningham

Oh, Casey, our big shaggy, Old English Sheepdog, we just loved you so much. You were such a big, silly old bear. It always amused us how you would "herd" our other dogs, and race them out the door, or into the pool. When we tried to walk you, you had such energy that you really took us for a drag. You did everything with gusto! When you lost that lively spark, we knew something was wrong. As your health declined, we wept and prayed that you would have peace. When that peace finally did come, we drowned in our tears. We'll always remember you, our big fuzzy bear.
Love always,
Jack, Gail, and Colleen, your human dad, mom, and sis

My dearest Casey,

Goodbye my sweet, dear friend.
You gave us so many wonderful days.
I wonder if you ever knew how much we loved you in return.
We miss you so much and will never forget you and everything you gave us.
Be happy my little pumpkin!

Love, Momma and Maddie

Casey was the most loyal beloved friend I have had in a dog my entire life, he did everything with me.
He was my loyal and loving Austrailian Shephard.
He would go with me to feed my horses, sit on the couch with me while I drank a cup of coffee, he was always with me.
I tried my hardest to save him, he would only eat off and on for a month, then when all the other tests came back normal, the vet opened him up and found a tumor in his stomach, he died on the operating table from being so weak from the tumor.
The only thing that was wrong with him was the tumor, that took his life.
He was so healty and active his entire 10 1/2 years with me, the house is so lonely without him, no other dog will ever be able to replace what Casey brought to my life.
I miss you so much Casey, I hope where you are at right now you are having fun with the horses like you did with me, barking at the ducks, chasing birds, I will never forget you my beloved friend.

Jolene

Casey was the best, funniest, bravest, smartest
cat ever!
He was my devoted companion for almost 18 years.
He was always there for me during tough times, with a deep, resounding purr that was so comforting.
I was there for him to nurse him through 2 brain tumors and other illnesses.
He left me on a cold March day as a result of kidney failure.
There will never be another kitty quite like him!
He was the best!

Nancy Rivers

Casey was the most loving dog, he was our buddy, he went everywhere with us, he slept with us, sat on the couch with us, we miss him so much.

Jon & Jolene

Casey sat by his best buddy Grandpa for several years through good times and sickness,they watched over each other day after day,like two old men sharing their war stories. One year after he had to say good-bye to his buddy - he now joins Grandpa again, he on one side and Brandie on the other side, in peace ...

Terry

My Beloved Friend...

While everyone who met you knew what an amazing dog you were, only you and I know the special bond we shared.
So many things have been uncertain in my life, but you are the one thing I could always count on.
You gave so much and asked so little in return, and for that I will always be grateful.
I hope you are happy where you are now, know that you will be in my heart till the day I die.

I love you!

Karen

Rest in peace my little Angel Casey.

Jean Devoy

Sleep well Boo Boo.
We miss you something awful and will always remember how much of a gift you were to our lives.

Shawn Small & Jon Speed

To Our Casey...
Casey, Bubba, Boo Boo, Little Buddy, Fuzz Bucket, all the names we called you, we called you with love. One day, mama and daddy will stop grieving, but we will never love you less, never miss you less, never stop thinking of you. You brought more into our lives than anyone could ever know. Your being there with us has been the most caring, loving, beautiful thing any person or people could ever understand. No one being has ever brought more meaning to the lives of others than you have to us. You are, have been, and always will be the joy in our memories that gave and gives life and love true meaning. We will always love you more than you could ever know. Thank you so much for allowing mama and daddy to know you. Thank you for being the smartest, handsomest, most fantastic, most loving kitty ever. Thank you for being my little boy, my companion, my best buddy, my best friend, for greeting me every night when I got home from work, for hours at a time lying on my lap while we watched TV. Thank you for letting me scratch your ears and do the “chin thing” you loved so much. Thank you for curling up on the couch and under the blanket with mama. Thank you for lying on your back, rolling back and forth, and peeking up at us as if to say, “Look at me, I’m cute!” Thank you for rolling over, for sitting pretty, and for daddy kisses in exchange for treats. Thank you for showing a dog person how absolutely amazing and wonderful a kitty can be. Thank you for making us laugh with your clumsy antics, like tripping up the stairs. Thank you for being such a good boy…sometimes. Thank you for all the times daddy needed calming, that you let me hold you. Thank you for all the times you let daddy turn you over and tickle your belly. Thank you for being so sweet lying in your kitty bed next to me while I worked on the computer. Thank you for sleeping with us every night. Thank you for all the wonderful things you did that I can’t even think of right now to thank you for. There will never be another like you. No other kitty could possibly compare.
We can only hope that while you were with us you had some idea of
how much we loved you.
As much as any human has ever loved another, so were you loved.
Casey, you will always be in our memories and in our hearts.
We will always love you and miss you.
King of the couch, king of the house, king of the world.
Daddy’s special little good boy, mama’s little Bubba, our Casey.

In memory of Casey, the most fantastic cat that ever lived.
May 2, 1991-January 21, 2006
So loved, so missed.

Please appreciate and love your pets with all your might.
Animals are after all, the best people.
They give so much and ask so little.

Dave and Kathy Kilgore

She tried to be strong but her little body gave up after a 3 hour surgery and continuous internal bleeding. To let her go was the hardest thing I ever had to do and it truely broke my heart. She was one of the most loving and affectionate dogs I have ever met and I am very grateful I got to spend the last 7 months with her.
I hope she is in a good place now.

You will always be in my heart Casey. Thank you for all the love and loyalty you gave me.

Nicole

I am still missing you as much as when you left me.
You were the best friend I ever had.

We miss you so much and are so sad at heart but we know that you are running and playing now and that you are at Rainbow Bridge.Someday we will be there with you again and travel on together forever.
You will never be forgotten and will always be loved !!!!

Ann , Bill, Bonnie and Misty Owens and Ben

Casey, this is going to be my first thanksgiving without you. It's hard to believe that it's already been 6 months since i've seen you. I still miss you so much. SO MUCH. Cameron hasn't been the same without you, so sad and bored, and lost. I got her a little friend to keep her company. We named her Shelby. She's very cute. I wish there was something i could do or say to have you back here with me. Sometimes, it still doesn't feel real. I LOVE YOU, Casey Jones. I hope you are having fun running through the fields with Loco, and I hope he is being nice to Buick :)
Give them both a kiss for me. You are always in my heart, Angel.

Love,
Daddy

My beautiful Casey Baby...I can never thank you enough for the last 12 years of joy and love you gave me.
You were the best friend a girl could ever have. I miss you terribly. Life will never be the same without you.

Jody Shade

Casey is a touch of love that does not flicker or diminish regardless of time
or the hour.
She has never missed a cue of our feelings and has always responded with love and attention in days of laughter and of pain.
I miss her, I don't know how to say exactly how
the house is empty without her warm eyes and her little greetings.
No one can take her place.
I love her and I wish her back but without the cancer and the pain.
Casey others will live because of you and the medical trials you allowed so sweetly.
You won all your vets and the tears for you are not from me alone.

William F. S. Lemieux

Our Sweet little Bebe' will always be in our hearts. Words don't exist that tell of our love for you & how empty we now feel. We hope you are happy over there & know there are those who loved you that were waiting for you & will take care of you until we're together again.
We love you little bugpie!

Joanne & Steve Hotvedt

casey was a true friend. she was smart, energetic and always good company. we will miss her .

Betty McNally

We adopted Casey from a shelter almost 11 years ago.
She was 5 months old, underweight and anxious at the time.

Very quickly, she warmed our home with love and grew to be a strong, healthy and intelligent family member.
She saw us through marriage and through the birth of 2 children.
She protected our home, loved our children and never stopped showing gratitude for the wonderful life we gave her.

She died less than one month after being diagnosed with bone marrow cancer.
It was a short, but severe illness and we could not rescue her from this terrible disease.
Our decision to help her cross The Bridge was by far a most difficult one.
It was awful to see her in such pain at the end.
I believe her spirit left her on Friday, but her body held out until Sunday, when we helped it join her so that she could again be the strong, vibrant, alpha dog that she always was.
We love her and miss her terribly.
The pain is almost unbearable.
I hope her spirit can cross The Bridge and grace me every once in a while.

We All Love You, Casey.
We will see you again.

The Morgan Family

Sweet Casey's mother gave her the most precious gift anyone can give to their furbabe..She sent her to the Bridge to be whole and alive again. to be free to roam, jump, bark and not gasp for air..
Casey,You know Rosemary loves you lots precious one. Blue says RUFF...Until you both meet again.....

Suzanne

Miss Casey, you were our sweetie girl.
We miss you terribly but know that you are no longer in pain.
Run, jump, and play baby girl.
You are gone from our lives, but will never be forgotten.
We will see you again and we will hold you in our hearts forever!

Mary and George Siracuse

Dearest Casey boy, we miss you more than words can say.
You were the absolute best for over 14 years.
Love, Mom and Dad

Casey girl,

I will always treasure the times we spent together.
I love you forever!

Mommy

Cashmere,

you where the best. I love you. I was 1 when you died.

Love,
Casey

She made me laugh right up to the end.
She was a good and faithful friend who loved us so unconditionally. She is missed...I think I hear her nails tap on the hard wood floors and I cry...someday I know I will laugh!

Diane and Dick

Cashemere the cat was a stray I found alone, cold, and hungry in my front yard. He looked like he hadn't eaten in a very long time . I was afraid he wouldn't make it through the week. I brought food and water out to the front yard & sat with him, stroking his fur as he ate. This became our routine and eventually Cashmere grew stronger and able to get up & leave the yard. But he came back. Every morning he was there & every night when I got home from work, waiting for his meals. If he wasn't on the front porch he came running when he heard the car pull up. On weekends he'd climb the tree outside my bedroom window or sit on the window sill and meow to let me know it was time for breakfast. I decided at that time he wasn't going any where so, I made him a "house" on the front porch, out of a card board box & old towels. I showed it to him & he laid in it rolling on his back purring & rubbing his head against my ankle. I named him Cashmere because of his soft white fur that was streaked with silver. THough probably a stray most ofhis life, Cashmere was gorgeous. A very large male cat w/ beautiful fur & silver tipped ears & large blue eyes. His personality was what got me, though. He came to me because he needed help. He stuck around and gave me joy with his playful antics. When I would bring in the groceries he'd jump in the car & climb all over my seats. When i hung the Christmas lights he batted them around as I tried to string them on the gutters, climbing the ladder after me. At night I'd sit on the porch and pet him & he loved to cuddle so I'd hold him on my lap. I told him every day how much he was loved. When it rained or when it was cold I brought him into my spare bedroom or the garage. I had 2 cats & 2 dogs of my own so I couldn't bring himinto the house. I was also out of work but the plan was to get a new job & get him to vet for shots & exams so I could incorporate him into our family. I was out of work 6 months. Cashmere passed away on New Years eve, just 2 weeks before I started a new job. I noticed him slowing down & eating less the week before CHristmas. He slept in the bushes & almost never got up to see me. He still purred when I sat down by him & pet him. Christmas Eve he showed up at the door. I literally tripped over him walking out the door because it had started to rain & he was pressed against the door. I had gone out to find him. I brought him into the garage and made him a warn bed & gave him food and water. Cashmere's death was a slow death but he never complained. Over the course of a week he hardly drank or ate. He layed quietly in one spot and only cried when I came out to sit by his side. I cried for him. I cried because I couldn't help him live & I couldn't help him die. I had no money and the local animal shelters and vets offices wouldn't or couldn't help. Even from the start, when i brought Cashmere into the house he would use the litter box. He never "went" any where else in my house. It amazes me still that even in his weakest moments that he attempted to get in the litter box. I helped him stand to go potty beacuse he would go on the floor. On New Years Eve I woke and checked on Cashmere to find he had passed in the night. I thanked God that he wasn't suffering anymore and felt my hear shatter into little pieces. This robust large cat had whittled away to nothing but bones over that week. cashmere lived on our porch a year maybe less, but he was part of our family and will be with us forever. I buried him in the back yard and this spring will be planting a rose bush near the grave. I hope Cashmere knows how much he was loved & how much he touched my life & how sorry I am I couldn't do more. In his honor I continue to feed the strays in the neighborhood. The food bowl is always full and the water dish is always fresh.
RIP cashmere you ARE loved, then, now, always.

Christina Folkenson

THANK YOU FOR 11 YEARS!!
IT WILL NOT BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU

Patti

Casino baby, I'm so sorry I wasn't there to protect you. I should have... My little Casino Nights.... I hope somewhere in your heart you can forgive me. I love you so much. You took a piece of me with you. I hope you'll wait for me and I can play with you again, and you can chase the cats just like you used to. I love you, Sino. Always and forever.

Caspar you were my friend and I loved you from the first time we met at the Humane Society. You had to come home and be a part of my family. You and I were together for only 4 short years but they were the best 4 years because you were a part of them. Your brother Chico is missing you and wants you to know you will be missed for a very long time. I held your head and Dad stroked your tail when you made your journey from this world to the next. Please know we loved you more than anyone can imagine and our hearts are hurting at our loss and we will remember you in our hearts forever. Mom

MY BELOVED RASCAL BOY.YOU LEFT US FAR TOO SOON.
STAY CLOSE ALWAYS.
YOU ARE IN OUR HEARTS.

Jane Rosser-Smith

In honor of Casper (aka "The Big Woo")...although it's been a few years since her passing...we miss her very much.

WE MISS YOU, BIG WOO.

Thank you for the love and companionship we shared for the past 12 years.
You will always share a special place in my memories and heart.

R.I.P. my "little man." You will forever be in my heart.

Lesley

Casper you will be missed very much,you will not be in pain anymore, you and Brew are together once again, Love you so much

Joe, Jeannie, Kevin, Samantha and Jessica

Casper came into our life almost 15 years ago and added to the the lives of my two children, my husband, and me.
As the kids grew up and moved out, he and I continued to share many moments together.
He followed me throughout the house, and waited for me each day at the door.
I remember our walks and our fun in the backyard.
We are all at a loss now, but are thankful for so many wonderful years and such happy memories of him.
Casper was my best friend.

Rita Peterson

we loved you with all our heart and it saddens us that you are gone. we will never have a mate like you again, but we know we will meet again love mum & dad

This Lady has done so much for so many at
Pet Loss.She has done so many beautiful pictures for our fur babies.
She has lost her precious Casper.
We need to remember them both with
prayer.

Mary Stone

Casper was a tall handsome solid white male kitty.
He had a loving personality.
The kids all loved him greeting them at the door every year for Halloween.
Everyone couldn't believe how long he was with us.
I got him when he was 13 and his original owners (farmers) were going to shoot him due to him fighting with other cats.
He fought with my cats to but we solved that problem witha nerf bat over the head. He stopped and became part of our family for his remaing years.
He was a joy to have.
I'll miss him forever!!!

Sharon Reinen

Casper was adopted by me at about 6 years. He was a talker, a biter and stubborn. Almost 6 years later, after almost 2 years with diagnosed Diabetes, he became a sweet, petable and fun cat to be around. 5.30 am wake up meow. 100 meows in a row if necessary. He wanted to be noticed and it worked. I will miss him terribly. He was always near me someway, somehow....Almost became a lap cat....almost. He layed on me when I was laying down, but his way. Letting him go was possible because of a kind doctor and compassionate sister-in-law and the truth that my favorite buddy needed to be let go of. The hardest thing I have ever done. To all of you who walked this path before me I thank you for your courage. If I would have met your pets I am sure you hace said something like what I will say.......My Casper...you would have loved him :-)

Kathy Goblirsch

To our sweetheart Casper. We released you yesterday in peace and dignity. Your love and loyalty was the most precious of gifts that you gave. We will remember always. We sadly miss you on our first day without you. Though our tears and sadness are deeply with us, thank you for allowing us to feel the loss....it speaks of a very deep bond. Now run free, be whole and play among the angels....till we meet again.

Frank & Jane Howard

Our darling Casper.Your parting has left our lives so empty.You were such a special dog.You fought the cancer so bravely.Thank you for giving us ten very special years.Our hearts are so sore and not a moment goes by each day that we dont think of our precious baby.We loved you so much and always will.We miss you so much sweetheart.

Dawie and Sharon Botha

Casper was my best friend and I am going to miss him so much! Mommy will see you soon baby, until then , know i'll be thinking of you.

Brittney Amerson Hicks

my Cassie-gator, my beloved little girl, I will meet you, Tojo, Ginseng & the rest of my babies on the Bridge.

Jackie Johnson

Casper, I hope you love the "Dock of the Bay" west of the Rainbow bridge.

Nicole Love and Henry Gosnell

To our guardian, son, brother, knucklehead, goofball... We will miss you.

Randy, Jenni, & Tater Davidson

Casey was an amazing member of the family. She got her Dad through Vet school and later was a beloved companion to her Grandparents. Her Aunt taught her to love ferrets and her Grandparents taught her to tolerate squirrels. She taugh everybody to love, laugh, play and fetch. She even started off training a new Golden puppy how to chase and fetch. She will always be with us to continue to guide us. We will be together again across the Bridge.

Fry Family

Cassi will be missed greatly.
She was my daughter's baby and a very special companion.
Cassi had so many qualities that they cannot be mentioned here in this small space.
Cassi was so very smart and compassionate.
In the last couple of months she had some health problems and was in a lot of pain.
Now she is at peace and at Rainbow Bridge with our other pets.
This was the hardest thing my daughter has ever had to do alone as she lives elsewhere.
It is also the most unselfish, loving and hardest thing she has had to do, even though she lost a very important part of herself.
I'm so proud of her.
We will all miss Cassi.
Rest in peace our special little girl.

Madelyn R Nitzkin

I have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream
I can tell by the mark he left, you were in his dream
Ah child of countless trees
Ah child of boundless seas
What you are, what you're meant to be
Speaks his name, though you were born to me
Born to me, Cassidy
Lost now on the country miles in his Cadillac
I can tell by the way you smile, he is rolling back
Come wash the night-time clean
Come grow the scorched ground green
Blow the horn, tap the tambourine
Close the gap of the dark years in between
You and me, Cassidy
Quick beats in an icy heart
Catch colt draws a coffin cart
There he goes and now here she starts
Hear her cry
Flight of the seabirds
Scattered like lost words
Wheel to the storm and fly
Faring thee well now
Let your life proceed by its own designs
Nothing to tell now
Let the words be yours, I'm done with mine

You will remain Forever in our Hearts.

Cheryl, Barry and Matthew Cavanagh

Cassidy was a clown and a princess. Rescued from the shelter as a pup by a friend, she came to live with us at about a year old. She was rowdy, clumsy, loving, needy; she could run as fast as the wind and was lazy as any teenager. She loved to sleep in on cold mornings and gave me many a leg cramp by curling up in her favorite spot between my knees.
She loved comfort and would climb on the couch and pile all the pillows together for a nest.
She taught the whole family about the joy of singing and howling like a true coonhound. Sadly, she collapsed suddenly Sunday afternoon and despite being taken to emergency vet care, within a few hours she was blind, her liver was failing and she was having seizures. The diagnosis was IMHA. We chose to help her across The Bridge. Today, my heart is cracked. The joy she brought to our family was immeasurable.

Melissa Mackey

Cassidy was a special little boy.
Always playful and curious.
I think he enjoyed being a dog and was always up for a petting.
He got along with everybody and every other animal in my household.
He was never angry or upset with anything.
He helped my other dogs look out for me.
Rest well my sweetheart.
I'll miss you.
Go find Beau and Shortcake and tell them I miss them as I will miss you.

Karen

Cassidy, We Love and Miss you so Very Much and we know you are out of pain now!
Your in our Hearts!!

Janet Heaven

Cass was a whole lot of love wrapped in a furry coat. His snuggles and loud purrs absent now from my home but not from my heart.

Pat Hefel

Bless you sweet Cassidy.
Run free and whole until we meet again.

Connie and Bernie

Cass, as we usually called her, departed from us on Friday around 4:30 pm.
I had gotten Cass as a 2 mo old puppy and she spent nearly every day of her life with me.
She traveled all over Texas with me and kept me from getting to far down when I was feeling depressed.
Those beautiful brown eyes were so kind and reassuring.
I wish there was some way we could keep our precious companions.
She was so much more than my pet.
I was her person and she was my baby.
She gladly shared me with our cats, whom she adopted as her puppies, and came to love my husband as much as she loved me when he and I met and married.
She taught him that big dogs did not always make big messes and not to judge souls.
When we rescued a puppy from the pound, Cass helped her learn the ways of the house and came to enjoy romping and playing with her.
Cass loved her feline puppies.
She would clean them and "itch their fleas" as we called it.
Cassidy was so loving, and if a new person or animal came around, as soon as she determined they were cleared by me, she was their new best friend.
Cassidy stayed close to me during my pregnancy.
Keeping me company and watching over me.
She was also very protective of me.
When my father had knee replacement surgery, she stayed with him when he got home, just to make sure he was okay.
Then when my son was born, she began sleeping close by him.
She was very alert to his needs when he was an infant.
Unfortunately for Cass, as the baby grew he became more active.
When he started crawling, she moved to my parents house.
This was about 9 months ago.
She basically refused to come back home with us.
Also, she was having difficulty with her joints and riding for 2 hours was difficult next to a car seat.
Not long after that, we noticed a knot on her head.
The vet diagnosed it as a calcium tumor.
He said that luckily, the tumor was not in her brain, but growing from her skull bones.
However, with her age and the type of tumor, it was not adviseable to remove it.
In March, the tumor started to grow faster and it was determined to be cancer.
Over the past few months, the tumor doubled in size.
We saw our beautiful, cheerful Cassidy on Sunday.
She gave us all kisses, including the baby, and barked and wagged her tail for us as we left.
When we saw her again Thursday evening, she did not recognize us by sight.
By Friday, she was terrified and running into things, just very confused.
There was no cheerfulnes, there was no tail wagging, no barking for joy.
She would not even play with our little dog.
As the day wore on, I knew she was miserable.
All she could do was pace the house.
We took her to the doctor one last time.
He then told me about his dogs and that they acted the same as Cass when they were too tired to keep going.
I know it may be silly to some, but I kept thinking of Barbaro.
His doctor said on that last day, he just looked like he was ready to rest.
He didn't feel like fighting anymore.
That was how Cassidy looked at me. She would not even let me comfort her.
So, what do you do when your closest companion for the past 10 years wants to rest?
This was the one soul on the planet that had loved me better than even my husband and parents have.
I did all I could do for her in return.
I let her go.
She was so tired.
She had been so wonderful to me all of her life, I could not be selfish and wait until I was ready for her to go.
I wanted to, terribly.
I could not believe she didn't want to be with us anymore.
One look in those terrified, confused eyes told me to let go.
She would always be with me and my boy.
Watching over us both.
She could run and play with 2 of her feline puppies that we had lost.
Mostly, her soul could live on, without pain to cloud her vision.
I let my baby girl go.
She quietly fell asleep with me holding her paws the whole time.
I don't know if I will ever have another furbaby that connects with me the way my Cassidy did and at the moment, I don't know if I want one to.
I do know that I will honor her memory every day.
She will live on in our hearts the way we remember her best, playing with and loving everyone.
For anyone who reads this, please send up your prayers for Cassidy's baby sissy, Neala, and her big bubba, Copper.
They are missing her and grieving for her.
Copper would not leave her side until her burial was complete.
Neala has been a little lost without her Cassidy.

I love you my darling Cassidy Kieran, with every beat of my heart I will continue to love you and remember you, until we are reunited once again.

Roxanna

We had to make the decision to put our precious friend Cassie down yesterday. Our hearts are broken even though we know it was the right thing to do. Cassie lived a grand life and was our companion for over 15 years. Her health had declined in many ways. She could no longer hear and though she ate constantly, food did not nourish her. She had lost a lot of weight. We probably waited too long but we could not bring ourselves to do it any sooner. She went peacefully and was with family.
We have another JRT who misses her. He is 9 1/2 and never has been without Cassie. We are devoting more time with him now. We are grieving but we are so blessed to have had Cassie with us as long as we did.
Cassie was a faithful friend.

Sue and Frank

My little girl, I loved you the moment I laid eyes on you. You left me while I held you. You were headstrong, but very gentle and loving. I miss you more than words can say, it's almost unbearable. I love you. I will always love you, I will always be your daddy and you will always be my little girl. I would have carried you up and down the stairs til my dying day for your snuggles and sweet kisses, but it was not meant to be. Your little body started breaking down, but like the song goes you lost your strength, not style. Like I promised you on the beach looking out over the ocean, I will find you one day, I promise.

Karl Dreyer

A truly beloved companion who was always by my side.
She is truly missed already.
There was so much love between us.

Pat White

Cassie was bought for us who wanted a little silver ferret to go with her buddy Rascal who passed last year in 2006.
She was one of the sweetest little animals we have ever owned. She brought us much joy and fun in our life.
She had such spunk in her for a little ferret.
She was much smaller than Rascal, which I think made her a little more special to me.
When Rascal passed she was so sad as she had spent the majority of her lifetime with him.
So we opted to get her another buddy, Mick. He just loved her too and was always found laying with/on top of her.
She had been sick most of the last month, as she was diagnosed with adrenal gland disease over a year and a half ago. Vet said most only live for 6 months after being diagnosed, but she stayed with us 3 times as long as they said.
We love our little angel and will miss her dearly as she was such a precious baby to us both.
Love you Cassiebell, take care and go find Rascal, he is waiting for you!

Angie and Ed Walden

I had to let go of my little shadow today.
She was the best friend I could have ever asked for.
My husband and I do not have any children and this was our baby.
She will forever be loved and missed.

Nichole Saunders

Ashley

Sadly missed, Ill be forever lost without my best friend by my side, but you'll remain forever in my heart and shall never ever be replaced.

Siobhan Smith

My pupski. My little love. You were my heart. I miss you so.

Shannon

She will never be forgotten.

Kid Cassidy

We lost our beautiful wonderful Cassie on April 13 from an apparent stroke. She was our beloved pet for 12 years and will be truly missed. She was a gift from God and was so very loved and cherished.She lived a long and good life with us and was a wonderful companion and friend.

Laura

We could never have imagined that losing you would leave such an empty space in our home.
We are forever grateful for your unwavering love, faithfulness and devotion.
Our hearts ache as we long for just one more kiss, or snuggle before bedtime.
We knew that the pain had become too much, and it broke our hearts to see you suffering so much.
You were our angel, and we miss you and all of the little things you used to do so much...like the clanging of your bowl when you wanted water.
Or the way you would get so excited when we asked you "Where's the mouse??".
There will never be another to take your place.
You overcame so much in your short life, and as much as you learned from us, we learned even more from you.
May God keep you safe and happy at Rainbow Bridge until we meet again.
We love you Cassie.

Karen and Marcel Tkachyk

CASSIE WAS A VERY SWEET AND VERY BEAUTIFUL DOG.
SHE WENT THROUGH SO MUCH IN HER VERY SHORT LIFE.
And she never complained. She never gave us any trouble.
Her favorite thing was riding in the car.
She loved the car.
SHE WAS LOVED BY EVERYONE THAT NEW HER.
She could never be replace in our hearts.
We think and talk about her everyday.
And we miss her very much.

Dan and Janet

Cassie was a sweet, funny, goofy girl who was with me for fifteen years. We had to put her down this morning when she went into organ failure from cancer. We're very sad that she's gone.

Megan Zalkan

Cassie, you were my precious baby girl. You always gave me love without limits. You made it possible for me to go on when I didn't think I could cope with the pain. You always made me feel so happy because you picked ME and made it clear that I was your special person by coming to my lap whenever any other cat was called. I loved how you followed me around and slept with me when we first brought you home. I will miss you forever -- your leaving has left a big hole in my heart and sometimes the pain is terrible. But I'll always remember your love.

Trish Nugent

Cassie was the sweetest, softest, most compassionate dog I've ever known.
She will always be missed, and forever be loved.

Colleen McCormick

We were blessed for 15 years with the most unbelievable dog ...our furry little girl ...our best friend.
Thank you Cassie for all your companionship, affection and unconditional love.
You truly were the best buddy in the world to daddy and me.
Thanks for all the joy.
You will be missed so very, very much, but I know we will see you again someday when we cross the rainbow bridge.
Have fun in the meantime..... run, run, run like you used to.
Eat anything you want.
Just think ...no more ear infections!

We love you little girl.

Mommy and Daddy

Thankyou Cassie for all the fun and joy. But thank you most of all for your love.....I Miss you and love you
rest in peace
Baby

Steven DiFranco

I beleive that we'll never be parted,
and your warm fur will lull me to sleep.
I'll imagine your still right here with me,
snuggled on my knee when I weep.
I'll never forget all our good times, and the days that we looked at the birds.
The sweet flying butterflies in summer,
and the way that you understand words.
Im always and forever around you,
we'll never be really apart.
I love you forever dear casta,
and youll always be here in my heart.
I love you Casta xxxx

Zoe Myers

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that my beloved Castania is gone.
As most of you know she was 16 years old and just a love to everyone.
Her body gave out way before her heart.
It was surreal watching her slip off yesterday, but Thomas and I were with her and supported one another as we lost our battle to hold back the tears.
As you can imagine, it is still weird to think of life without her, though we knew the inevitable was pending. Castania died as peacefully and lovingly as she lived.
She is sorely missed and will never be forgotten.

Sabine, Caddie was the best gift I have ever received.
Thank you.
She gave life and love without fail.

Leonard Augustus Jr

My baby.
I miss you so much.
You were the best cat in the world, my best buddy.
I love you always!

Melinda

To one who possessed beauty without vanity,
Strength without Insolence, courage without ferocity,
And all the virtues of man without his vices.

The price, which would be unmeaning flattery
If inscribed over human ashes, is but a just tribute to the memory of Cat the Dog.

GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN

Catkin was a Mr. Mom to two foster kittens and his best friend, Ivy. He snuggled, carried and cleaned his babies.He was an angel with a big heart who left us too early. He purred all the time and liked to talk too. He was brought to our vet today after his valiant fight with kidney cancer became too much. We love you Dasa!

Annette

Love The Family

Catty, (1984 – 2001)

It has been six years since you have been gone.
The pain of your leaving has not left my heart; when you left, a big part of me left with you.
I have never been the same.
I think about you every day; I miss you so.
They say time heals all wounds.
That is not true.

I remember the days when you were a little kitten, so playful, and so new to the world.
As you got older, you were my little one, my friend, my soul mate, my sweet little baby boy.
I loved you unconditionally, and I know you loved me.
We bonded like I have never bonded with a human being.
Our love was so strong.
You were always there for me through good times and bad.

I will never forget the time due to unfortunate and uncontrollable circumstances (for a couple of months when you had to stay at my mother’s home) we were forced to be separated.
I made a promise to you that day.
I told you, “We’re a package deal.
Where I go my kitty goes, and where my kitty goes I go.”
I meant that, and I did everything I could to get you back; and I did.

We were never separated again until the time when I knew I had to let you go.
You were suffering so much.
I held your little hand, and I knew you loved me and did not want to go.
You hung on way longer than you should have. I knew you were in so much pain, but I could not endure the pain of you leaving. I did not know what to do.
Then that awful day came, November 2, 2001, I came home from work for lunch, and your skin had broken open, and you were oozing horrible fluid.
I panicked.
I called a vet, who had your blood work, and he said, “I looked at his vitals, and I think I can save him. Bring him in.”
Suddenly, I had hope you would be saved.
On the way to his office, you were so sick and so scared; I looked into your beautiful green eyes, and I promised you everything would be all right.

To my dismay, that was the worst mistake I had ever made.
I should have had a veterinarian come to the house and end your misery.
Instead, I made it worse. The vet I took you to made you suffer before I had him end your pain.
I am so sorry my little one.
If I only knew how much you were going to suffer, I would never have taken you there.
It was just that he gave me a glimmer of hope, and I so didn’t want to lose you.
The thought of you leaving was unbearable.

Unfortunately, when that time came, I hyperventilated, I collapsed in the vet’s office, and cried uncontrollably.
I watched you die.
I will never ever forget that awful moment, and I cannot get it out of my head.
I took your lifeless body home. My husband made you a coffin and buried you.
That was the first time I had ever seen him cry, and he had only known you for seven years.
You were with me for 17 wonderful years.

I miss you so, and I am so sorry about the way you died. I will never forgive myself.
If only I had known, I would have done things differently.
I let you suffer too long because the thought of you leaving was unbearable.

You have been gone for six years but not forgotten.
You will always be in my heart.
You are part of me.
We are soul mates, and we will always be together.
I will never stop loving or missing you.
Till we meet again my little one…

Gina

We are going to miss you Catty. I have had you with me since I was a baby and before Christopher was born. You used to watch us take our bath and you wouldn't let strangers close to us when we were sleeping.

Thank you for taking care of us.

You will be missed by Mom, Dad, Richard, Brett and us along with your furry friends Garfield and Roxy.

Cayenne led a life of second chances. He was adopted at two years, and a few days later, at my vet's, found positive for FIV. A few years ago he also developed feline asthma and patiently submitted to a human inhaler for his treatment and assorted vitamins to maintain his immune system. He was pretty near the perfect patient.

I didn't give up on him then, and as the disease progressed he didn't either, until yesterday, when we parted. I held his head while the vet tech administered the shots. As ever he was a good boy, brave and gentle.

He also was a handsome boy, intelligent and charming, with the bluest eyes and the softest whirring voice.

In the last few weeks he lost that voice. As I watched him decline I missed that the most.

If there is ever a cat that should be awaiting me on the other side of this life, it is Cayenne, and someday, I will be listening for him.

Deborah de Lorenzo

My baby, my shadow, my girl - I'll smile when I see you someday

Diana Prat

In loving memory of a dog who chose me to shower with her love.
A dog who accepted my fiance into our lives with an open heart (after repeatedly NOT accepting other men I've dated).
She was a wonderful friend and companion, and she will be sorely missed.

With love always,
mom & dad

Kirsten Johnson

to my best friend of 13yrs. I miss you so and know that you went to heaven and are no longer suffering.
I will be with you again someday, and wanted to let you know that you will alway's be loved............

Jackie

I love you Cay and can't wait to hold and pat you again. Take care of Coco.

Laureen

dear sweet caylus,
thank you for being at the center of our hearts for almost twelve years.
you have always been such a gentle and wise soul and we have been honored to be in your presence all these years.
plus....what fun!
we love you forever,
mommy and daddy

Caymus, you changed so many lives and we are all grateful for the time we had with you. You will live on as the eternal flame in everyone's soul.
Thank you for your spirit.
We love you, miss you, and am so sorry for your pain.
You are gone but loved forever and never forgotten.

"MY CB KITTY"

CB sweetie, I miss you more than words can express,

My heart has been ripped from my chest.

When you came to me as a wee kitten,

I knew then that you would always

Have a special place in my heart.

The dog wanted to kill my baby,

But I managed to pry you from his jaws.

You cried a lot from that moment on,

Thus the name "Crybaby" you were given.

You quickly became my friend, my sweet baby,

My huge, gentle giant, and my companion.

Truly the most gentle and loving soul

I have ever known in my lifetime!

Even though the mean dog did you harm,

You dealt with the bad days so well.

You loved all the furbabies, yes even

The doggies who would allow you to love them.

You had to act like my big, tough boy,

When deep down you would not hurt a soul.

Bless you sweetie for the many, many furbaby

Kittens that you brought home to me from the woods.

Together we raised quite a few, always in love.

You taught them to be like you sweet baby,

Gentle, loving, and kind, with hearts of gold.

I cry tears for you my boy, because I am sad,

To be here on this earth without my baby is hard.

I miss your huge, loving green eyes.

I miss your slick, shiney, grey coat of fur.

I miss the way you would rub against my leg,

And look up at me wanting me to scratch your back.

I miss you cuddling up next to me,

We went through many a rough and good times together!

I miss the way you would roll over on your back,

And look up at me with those loving eyes,

Wanting me to rub your belly and play!

I miss you being by my side in what ever I did.

I miss watching you and your baby girl together,

Playing, eating, cuddling together, and yes even

Having your little fusses at times!

Your baby girl misses you terribly sweetie,

I thought for awhile that she would join you there.

She is doing better now, but still looks for you everywhere.

After thirteen years together, she is very lonely without you.

She wants to play with me, but I have to keep reminding

Her that she can't play as rough as she always did with you.

And yes, I even miss the way you cried all the time!

Never thought I would say that, but I do!

All in all, I just miss everything about YOU!!

I am so sorry that I couldn't do more for you CB,

I wish I could have kept you with me forever.

I'm sorry the vet. hurt you my baby,

I know he didn't intend to do so.

I treasure your "Best behaved kitty" ribbon that

You got from the vets. office,

And your hair that I got from the brush

That you so loved being brushed with.

You were truly one of a kind, a special

Soul that will never leave my heart.

My baby boy, I love you.

I know you are taking great care of all those

Furbabies there in Heaven.
It brings a smile to my face,

Thinking of you running around with them all

Running after you:).
Have a good time sweetie,

Be a good boy.
I LOVE YOU CB.

Your Mommy, Cindy

My sweet Ceasar, little did I know that you would pass away so quickly I love you always and will remember you always

David Ohlson

He was small but thought he was big.
He had a definite air about him.
He was always there with those big black eyes.
He slept with me and had to be touching.
Last night my bed felt very empty.

Linda Leggett

Ceasar was always there to greet me when I came home from work or whenever I walked in the door. He used to cuddle in my cupped hand and eat out of my hands also. I wished I had given him more attention as he was a very smart and personable fish. I told him I was sorry about this and hope he forgives me. Love to you, my sweet boy.

Lisa Eichholzer Walker

Ceasar, My Bro, My Dog.... Never Be Forgotten

It feels as if I had lost a brother.
But Ceasar was different, he was like no other.

This is the type of brother with four legs.
Fetches and rolls over, that sits and that begs.

He’s gone to a better place now.
Where he will forever be free.
A place full of bones and puppy chow.
And where he can watch over me…

Where he has no master,
And pisses wherever he please.
Heaven, where there is no disaster,
The place that knows no disease…

But now ten years has gone by.
And I can’t believe you’re gone.
I never wanted to say goodbye.
But now you’ve moved on…

You are not suffering anymore, I should be glad.
You are in a better place now. So why the hell am I so sad?

Is it because you’re at peace?
And you can’t be replaced?
Because I can’t hear you leash?
And can never see your face?

But you left much here.
And I’ve got your chain,
Forever I will keep it near.
So from my neck it will hang.

To remind me of the days ago,
The days that are gone.
How you used to jump in the snow.
And play on the lawn.

Like the day I’d toss a stick,
And you give chase.
How you gave me a lick.
And you bit me in the face.

And there you left a scar.
On the side of my chin…
Forever reminding me who you are.
“A Boss”, and giving me a grin.

I got mad love for you bro and it will never go away.
You’ve gained a part of my heart and there forever you will lay.
Left our family the year 2007 on the 12th of May.
I just wanted to let you know you my dog, my dog and forever you will stay.

Rest in peace Ceasar. I love you...

Allan McDaniel

We love you and miss you. You will be forever in our hearts....You were very special to us....

Paul and Mary Benavidez

CEAZER WAS A VERY VERY SPECIAL COMPANION, HE TOUCHED EVERYONE HE MET. HE HAD A SPECIAL PART IN IN EVERY SINGLE PERSONS HEART HE EVER MET. WE LOVE HIM AND MISS HIS LOUD SLOBERY FACE. HE MADE US LAUGH AND THE KIDS MISS HIM SOO MUCH. US AS THE PARENTS HAVE HAD A VERY HARD TIME WITH THIS. WE KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME BUT NEVER EXPECTED IT TO BE THIS HARD. THERE IS NO PREPARING YOUR SELF FOR THIS. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS SO SUDDEN, AND WHEN HE WAS JUST KISSING MY FACE AND SNEEZING ON ME A FEW HOURS BEFORE THAT. I MISS HOW HE WOULD BARGE INTO THE BEDROOM IF THE DOOR WAS NOT CLOSED ALL THE WAY. THE DOOR WOULD SLAM INTO THE WALL AND HERE HE WOULD COME TO LAY DOWN NEXT TO THE BED AND SNORE. I MISS HAVING TO LET HIM OUT SIDE IN THE MORNING. CEAZER WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND AND WILL NEVER FORGET YOU!

Becky & Jesse

Ceazer was with us for 8 years and we realy miss him. Today is the 1st day with out him, and we are hurting. We miss him so much, our little ceazer punk was apart of our family.

Becky and Jesse

I lost my beloved feline companion Cecil today (July 20, 2007).
Cecil had been a truly wonderful friend for the past 18 years and now there is such a void because he is gone.
There were just so many endearing qualities about him; he was warm, friendly, loveable and fun, just to name a few.
Unfortunately he had become a victim of kidney failure and was taken from me rather quickly, but I feel very lucky to have shared 18 wonderful years with him. The great memories I have of Cecil are plentiful and will be mine to cherish for the rest of my days.
Bless you Cecil and thank you for bringing so much joy into my life.

Brian McAlley

Cecil you were my best friend and I will always love you and I think about you almost everyday.
I miss you so much my boy dog,

Lori Dellaverson

CECILY was a special little kitten from the time I first saw her.
I was about to take another from the litter when she marched into the middle of the room, picked up one paw and meowed at me in a voice like a rusty hinge.
She nursed my ear lobe for almost two years.
She would go into full comfort mode when I cried and was a dear, sweet wonderful kitty, then, one night she just wandered off.
I will never understand since she had never left her yard.
I will miss her always.
I had lost one of my little dogs just two weeks before, so our little family has had a rough time.

Nancy Lea

Ceda was out baby girl for 12.5 years. We adopted her from the pound when she was 1.5. She was my baby, she truly loved her mommy.Ceda slept with me every night for 12 years but the month before the cancer got diagnosed she started sleeping in another room. She was preparing me. She was in pain, but thinking of me! I miss her with all my heart and soul. I have an empty lap now and a hole in my heart.
My only solice is knowing that my baby girl isnt hurting anymore and that she loved me like no human ever could.
I love you Ceda and I will see you again someday.
Mommy

My best friend, I miss you!
You are the best kitty I could have ever spent time with.

Chantal Laflamme Regan

Sweet to the very end. Play nice with Sammie, we miss you both so much.
I'll miss bedtime when you made bread and ate your treats before bed and snuggled with us.
No more suffering, you're free again to play in heaven.

Cindy Brown

CeeCee, my pretty girl,
You came so far from the scared, wild little cat you were at first.
We tried so hard to give you a good normal home. But in the end, I can only hope you knew you were loved, that you were not always a stray.
I hope you forgot what it felt like to be cold, with an empty belly.
I want so much for you to know that I love you and I wanted everything for you that a cherished kitty has.
I miss you. I wish I could pet you and hear you purr one more time. I hope you know we tried so hard.....You deserved better.
I can only hope you are at peace.

Lesley Boudreaux

Ceefur-Cat was brought to my Cornish Inn, from a cider farm in 1991. He was a big cat who enjoyed life, climbing trees for roosting pigeons, or asking guests in the bar for a tasty morsel. We sold the Inn in 2005 and nearly left him there as he loved it so much, but the new owners had birds and we just had an uneasy feeling that they would care for him. We decided to transport him, his sister, Sweetie and Ollie-Puss to a new life in Canada. 'Freedom 50' we called it. Sweetie died May 2005, and Ceefur followed on 12th July 2007. It was a pleasure to have known them both.

Andrew Taylor

We love you so much our pretty princess girl. You are already missed. XOXOXO

Mike, Cathy, Jake, Micky, Dave, Mojo & Chachi

we loved you even though you were a bad dog.
i hope you had a good life, though we had to cut it short.
we're so sorry, but we had no choice...you ran out of chances

Karen Goddard

So faithful even until the end, you didn't want to leave us.
How you are missed!
You and Gabi can now play with Laurel until we get there!

Mimi Macdonald

Today my wonderful cat, Celine, crossed the Rainbow Bridge to join her friend, Cookie Monster,in a place free from pain and suffering.
Both of them live on in my heart and my memories.

Marian Todd

Celinka was a very intelligent, strong and brave dog. She was our only ray of sunshine. After struggling with a sudden disease she died naturally and - to some extent - peacefully. Her faith and endurance were enormous. She waited for all of us to gather around her and only then she took her last breath. We will always remember her, see her, hear her and feel her. It was the most tragic experience of our lives. But somehow Celinka left HOPE with us. The Rainbow Bridge must really exist! M.M.

Cepheus was the light of our lives. He made us better people because he loved us. While he was ill for a long time, he had a light and gusto for life. Loved to beg, go for walks, be rubbed all over, go for rides{anywhere} and just be with his family. Understood alot of words, and sentences.Best friend to all who met him.Loved by his family and his many friends in North Carolina, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.We are lost without him. He showed us life through his eyes.We are hurting.

Burgess, Lynda and Tripp

Our sweet little bird.

Pat McClenahan

How I miss you my Loving Friend.
I will see you when I get there.
Love You

Linda

Sweet Cervantes, we will miss watching you chase your striped tail, beg for shrimp, fetch the twisty-tie, tap us on the face with your soft paw when you wanted attention, flop on your side with your paws in prayer, and your other antics.

I treasure the photo of your dad and you with your paws pressed against him and your eyes scrunched shut as you both napped on the sofa.

We miss your deep purr and your cry as you greeted us when we came home from work.
You were the best cat in the world and you still acted like a kitten even when you were old.
We love you so much. Please forgive us for our decision to end your suffering.
Your absence is so hard to bear.
Adieu, our C-Monster!

Matt and Jennifer Kulish

We only get comfort in knowing that you did not suffer & you had a good life. I know Shadow was waiting for you when you crossed the bridge. You two were best of friends even though he was a cat.

We had a special bond. We love you, Bubba. Take care of Shadow; tell him we love him too. Your a good boy. xoxoxo

Siobhan/Sue Ronald/Bob

Champ was the best dog in the world. Yes, I know; everyone says that about their fur-baby ;-) but Champ was far and away the best dog that I ever had.

He was a Terri-Poo (Terrier-Poodle mix); he was playful, quick and smart as a whip.
I remember that after playing and racing around, his favourite thing to do was just to curl up in my arms.

I look forward to doing that again, Champ.
I love you! oooxxx

K Sweat

Our Sweet Velvet Lion,
We were blessed to care for you while your Dad was working.
You brightened our day everytime we saw your face.
Thank you for bringing such joy to our lives.
We hope in these past weeks you felt a special love from us that may have been missing, we were honored to care for you dear Champ.

It was an honor to be holding and touching you this morning as we let you go.
Your spirit was so bright and you are missed so greatly.
We love you forever.

Auntie Char & Auntie Michele

My heart broke yesterday as I had to let my sweet Champie go. Chuck and I decided we could not let him suffer - he selflessly gave love to us and he deserved that in return. He died in my arms surrounded by love...his daddy Chuck, his grandma Doreen, and brothers Boss and Oliver, and sister Mollie...we were all there to watch his soul leave his body. He may be gone in spirit but he'll live forever in my heart.

I remember when I first met Champ. He was waiting for me in my parents car as I returned from a trip. When our neighbors had puppies, I quickly picked one out. We discussed getting another dog and decided against it - at least I thought we did - until I saw this tiny bundle of brown fur wagging his tail to greet me. He was so small, he was actually the runt of the litter, and you could tell he was really missing his mama-he was much too young to be taken from her. But, I happily accepted the responsibility of taking him in as my 'son'. Little did I know that this was the start of the most beautiful bond between a girl and her dog. He slept in my arms and followed me everywhere - looking into my eyes with wonderment as I showed him the world.

His first year was met with an emergency visit to the vet and then tragedy. When he was just six months old, he was kicked in the head by a horse. He screamed in so much pain that it broke my heart. We rushed him to the vet and that was the first time we saw his fighting spirit. He knew that I needed him and would be heartbroken without him, so with a few setbacks he fought through. Shortly after that, our other dog was tragically killed at the age of one. Champ's little puppy heart was broken. He sat on our porch at night and wailed the most mournful howl I've ever heard. He comforted me and I comforted him. He had never known life without another dog so we knew we'd have to find one.

Then, God sent us an angel in the form of a 100lb black lab. From the moment they met they were inseparable. Boss and Champ, Champ and Boss - always the two of them. They were neutered together, groomed together, taken for rides together. Two peas in a pod. A couple of years ago, Boss had to have both of his ear drums removed which left him completely deaf. Champ lovingly took on the role of his brothers keeper. He actually would run up the stairs to alert Boss that we were home so that he didn't miss out on the excitement of our return. That's the kind of dog Champ was...a caring, kind, and loving one.

Champ's always been a mama's boy. If ever we'd leave town, we'd return to a couple of my shoes, slippers, and tee shirts laying in his bed with him. The person who'd watched him would say that was what satisfied him and soothed him when he was missing me. My mom always talked about this incredible bond she has with a couple of her dogs which I knew nothing about until Champ. When he was diagnosed 4 months ago with cancer my heart literally broke in half. But, if any dog could fight through it would be him. The vet left us with a prognosis of 2 1/2 weeks - 2 months. Well he doubled that prognosis by making it a little over 4 months. And because he loved me, he would've kept fighting. But, because I loved him I couldn't let him.

The last 4 months of his life have brought such joy to Chuck and I. It really solidified the bonds we had with him. He just became part of me more. He went to work with me, went in the car with us every time we left the house, we never left him alone. He got to go to the lake a few times and the mountains twice. He made it to Thanksgiving, and then Christmas - which of course was his best. He made it to his 11th Birthday and we threw a party just for him. He made it four whole months with a growing beast inside of him. Yeah, he was a fighter, he was a Champ!

My dearest Champion Bartholomew. ..You brought such joy to my life and showed me what true unconditional love really was. My Bubba, you were my best friend, my heart, and my soul - without you I will have an incredible void in my life, but not in my heart - I know you are there, and will be always. I hope you are at the Rainbow Bridge that we've talked about, reunited with your brother Buddy who you missed so much. Your cousins Talkeetna, Nikita, Sam, and Annie will all be there too. I hope all of your friends from the CanineCancer family are showing you around. My love, I miss you more than I can explain - my heart is broken without you. Thank you Champ for giving me the greatest gift of all, love - pure, simple, unconditional love.

Until we meet again, please remember: 'You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey - I hope you know dear how much I love you, please don't take my sunshine away.'

You will never be forgotten Champie.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF CHAMP

I KNEW YOU JUST A SHORT TIME IF YOU THINK OF MY LIFE’S YEARS.

I KNEW YOU JUST A SHORT TIME THROUGH SOME LAUGHTER AND SOME TEARS.
YOU WERE A SOURCE OF COMFORT,YOU WERE A SOURCE OF JOY.
YOU WERE MY PRECIOUS CHAMPION, MY LOVING PRECIOUS BOY.

YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE BESIDE ME YOU ASKED FOR NOTHING MORE.
YOU WAITED PATIENTLY IN THE CAR OR JUST INSIDE THE DOOR.
WHAT WE COULD LEARN FROM YOUR SWEET SPIRIT, TO PUT OUR LOVED ONES FIRST. TO ALWAYS BE THERE FOR THEM AND NEVER CAUSE A HURT.

YOU LOVED TO CHASE THE SEAGULLS AND TRIED TO CALL THEM IN.
YOU WOULD RUN INTO THE WATER AND BARK INTO THE WIND.
I THINK THEY THOUGHT YOU CURIOUS, ‘CUZ THEY WOULD CIRCLE OVER HEAD, DIP DOWN TO THE WATERS EDGE TO LOOK AT MY FUNNY FURRY FRIEND.
TWICE OR THRICE IT WAS MORE THAN A SEAGULL THAT TRIED TO SEE YOUR FACE.
YOUR BARK CALLED A SEAL WHO WOULD POP A HEAD UP, THINKING THE CALL MIGHT BE A MATE!

YOU WERE LOVED BY THOSE WHO MET YOU.
A SMILE YOU WOULD ALWAYS WEAR AND THOSE WHO DIDN’T KNOW YOU WERE SURPRISED WITH THE TEETH THAT YOU WOULD BARE.
BUT IT WAS JUST A FRIENDLY GESTURE A WAY YOU SAID HELLO.
IF YOU’LL JUST BE NICE AND PET ME, I WILL STAY AND NEVER GO.

YOU HAD A HEART OF GOLD YOU DID.
IT WAS STRONG UNTIL THE END.
BUT SOMEHOW YOUR SWEET BODY GAVE OUT BEFORE YOUR SPIRIT DID.
WE ARE SO SAD TO SAY GOODBYE MY FRIEND, BUT IN OUR HEARTS YOU WILL ALWAYS STAY.
YOU CAN CHASE THE SEAGULLS ALL DAY LONG AND THIS ONE REQUEST TO GOD I PRAY.

I PRAY THAT GOD SENT YOU STRAIGHT TO HEAVEN WHERE THERE IS A PLACE FOR SPECIAL DOGS.
WHERE ALL THE JOY AND HAPPINESS YOU GAVE HERE IN LIFE WILL BE YOURS TO KEEP FOR EVERMORE.
AND ONE MORE THING I ASK DEAR LORD, ONE MORE REQUEST PLEASE IF I MAY, THAT WHEN MY LIFE IS OVER AND ON THAT GLORIOUS DAY, I’LL SEE MY FRIEND IN HEAVEN WHERE WE’LL WALK AND SPEND TIME AND PLAY!

FATHER IN HEAVEN, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE SPECIAL GIFT OF CHAMP

Our Darling Beloved Champagne, you filled our heart and home with your beautiful grace and gentle spirit.
We tried to save you but loved you too much to have you endure the pain any longer.
You were taken too soon.
We miss you deeply...Chanel and Bella are waiting to see you at the Rainbow Bridge..they also miss you so much.
I hope you are looking down on us and know we will always remember you.
Our hearts are truly broken..rest in peace, our precious one.

Champie was a shy, but playful 16 pound bundle of shining ebony fur and firm muscles.
He stood up for his sister and brother when they weighed just a few ounces, and I think he used all of his courage that day.

Champie died suddenly last weekend.
I don't know why he was taken from me, but I loved him and will sorely miss him.

Rick Williams

Our sweet Champy boy was wonderful companion with a gentle soal. He joined our family in February 1999. We adopted him from the Humane Society when he was 5-7 years old (we aren't sure of his exact age).
After a little accident (peed on my husband's work laptop) he became a huge part of our family. Our other dog, Smokey, received an instant brother. Through the past eight years he has provided us with so many wonderful memories. This house is just not the same without him. Everyone misses him, including his brother. Champy we love you so much and your passing is something we are struggling to get through. We miss the sound of your nails on the floor and we miss when you would bark just to hear yourself bark. We hope for the last eight years you have felt loved and cherished. Your unconditional love we are forever thankful for.
You will always be a part of us. Thank you Champy for being a part of our family!

Mark and Cindy Boston

Chan was a chubby girl who was so very sweet and laid back, if not too bright.
She was found as a stray kitten by my sister, and I adopted her when she was 2 years old.
About a year ago she was diagnosed with chronic kidney failure.
She continued to do reasonably well, just slowing down a little bit.
But ultimately, her kidneys shut down rather quickly on Sunday April 29th, and she was having trouble standing and walking.
On Monday April 30, 2007, the vet tried to give her fluids and warm her, but she was too far gone, and her heart simply stopped beating at about 10:50am Central time.
I miss her so much.

Chance,

Daddy and I want you to know YOU brought so much joy, happiness, love, loyalty, smiles, and adventurnes into our lives. You were the most amazing dog that we have ever had. You were so special to us from the first time we met you and brought you home. Your strength, your eyes, your beautiful brindle color, and your big ole block head :) YOU WERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE OUR ANGEL SENT FROM HEAVEN ABOVE!!!!!!
We will FOREVER miss your wonderful companionship, your personality, long walks around town, by the river, or in the mountains. Looking into the back seat and seeing your head hanging out the window. We will miss seeing you when we walk out of a building. We will miss having people stop us on the street to "HI" or to say "that you are such a beautiful and well behaved dog." I will miss seeing you walk ahead of us and turn around to check to see if we are still there. I will miss saying, "come on Buddy." Daddy loved playing stick or ball with you and your friends at the park or by the river. You were such a trooper the nights that we camped. I loved when you would get into bed with us and we would all cuddle with each other. I loved laying next to you at night and I loved waking up next to you in the morning. I loved our alone time together it was so special. I loved rubbing the spot on your nose you would just loce your eyes and relax. You were the most amazing protector of me when Daddy wasn't around. I love you so much Chance. You were our EVERYTHING!!!! It is not the same without you here now. Daddy and I look everywhere and see your face. We will never forget the memories that we made with each other as a FAMILY. When we lost you we lost a part of ourselves. Daddy and I are trying to stay strong because though you aren't here with us physically your spirit is so much with us. I will never forget you and I will talk about you as often as I can and to as many people who are willing to listen.

Last night Daddy and I buried you and it was hardest thing to do. We layed you to rest in a special place, the mountains where we know you never wanted to be.

Let the earth let you rest.
Let the wind carry your spirit
Let the mountains hold your soul
Let the memories of us never fade.
Rest in peace our beloved friend.

THE EULOGY
Look not where I was
For I am not there
My spirit is free
I am everywhere

In the air that you breathe
In the sounds that you hear
Don't cry for me Mom
My spirit is near

I'll watch for you
From the other side
I'll be the one running
New friends by my side

Smile at my memory
Remember in your heart
This isn't the end
It's a brand new start

By: Carol Kufner

I'm Still Here
Friend, please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I'll never wander out of your sight-
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach-
I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.

I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around
and the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,
and you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking there's no one to love you,
you can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,
and you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.

I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend, I'm everyplace!

My good boy Chance. I miss you so much, I miss your big brown eyes, and the way you would dance around when you got excited. I wish so much you were with me now. I have an pain in my heart that will never go away. Heidi misses you so much, and still watches the door for your return. I hope you knew how much I loved you. Even though it tore me up inside, I stayed with you until the very moment you passed in my arms. I wanted to always be with you, even to the end. You are my good boy. I cant wait to see you again. Give my kitty, and your first friend, Graybaby a big kiss for me, and tell her I love her. I cant wait till the day I cross the bridge, and see the two of you running to greet me. I love you, and you will forever be my special boy.

In May of 2000 we lost our beloved baby Conner. In search of another to fill our hearts and to find a playmate and companion for our other baby Sargin, we found Chance. Through the internet at an adoption agency, we drove 6 hours to visit him with Sargin. When we arrived, we knew instantly he belonged with our family and off we went on his new journey to a new home. Not knowing his history, the first few weeks were difficult for us. He had never been indoors and every time we put something in our hands (newspaper, etc.)he would kringe. We had a dog door and fenced in yard for them to come and go as they wanted. We brought him into the house and showed him love. It took only a few weeks for him to settle in. We came home one day to find Chance and Sargin spread out on the couch together and quite content. We took a chance on Chance and it payed off for all of us. We found love and once again our family was complete. In 2005 Chance started having problems with his hips and legs. After surgery and 2 years of medication to relieve his pain, his suffering came to an end. We sent our baby across that bridge where we know he is not in pain anymore and playing with other pals and waiting the arrival of his friend and companion Sargin. We can't beging to describe the joy he brought to our family even though he was only with us a few short years. We only hope the chance that Chance took on us payed off for him as well as it did for us.

You 25lb ball of fur. I've never seen a cat that so loved to ride in a car. If they need cab drivers there I'm sure you'll volunteer.

DaveDee

Chance, we know now that you are able to hear and have fun now just like everyone else does.
We all miss and love you very much. Your brother has picked up alot of your ways to show us that he misses you to and keeps you in his heart always. You will never be forgotten cause we keep you near and warm.
Love always your mom, dad and brother Max.

Chance was a bundle of joy and energy. He woke up every day full life and adventure and excited for what each day held for him.. May his spirit live on with his memory and may all the fur babies in heaven enjoy his love of having fun..

Chance-

Your whole life was a chance. It was by chance that I was late this morning, It was by chance that I was on the beltway at that time, it was by chance that I came by and saw you. It was by chance so that I could stop Houston traffic to get you. Which was no easy feat. Your little hind leg was dragging all over behind you. I snatched you up, hissing and meowing at me grabbed you to me and brought you safe and sound to my truck, called my partner and told her what had happend. We already have 4 dogs and 6 cats, Lord knows we do not need another. But it was by chance that we found more love in our hearts to keep you. So you joined our family as Chance :) We then immediately took you to the Animal Hospital. The Dr. said you were hurt too badly, and I had to let you go. That was the hardest thing to do ever. I know you will be safe and warm over the bridge. I pray that All of the rest of your sisters and brothers greeted you with open paws and made the hurting stop. Until I see your little face again, We love you!

Jacquelynne S. Sedgwick

Our beloved Chance is gone and we just want to thank him for all of the great memories and fun times. Thank you Chance for looking after your little girls and being their protector. We remember when you came between Juliette and a deer and barked till it ran away. Their hearts are hurting but we have so many memories to help them heal. We pray now that you can run and play like you used to without the tumors. It's not fair, you had so much life left but your body just stopped. We hope you understand why we had to put you down. And I hope that you found comfort in me being there with you. I'm sorry I couldn't have been stronger for you. Please know that Walt, Juliette, Lexi and I love you more than anything. Nana, Holly, Bob, Shelly and Bobby miss you too. You will always be with us in our hearts. XOXOXO

Wendi Callam

I WILL NEVER GET OVER THE LOSS OF YOU. AS I HAVE SAID FOR YEARS YOU WERE NAMED CHANCE BECAUSE IT WAS BY CHANCE YOU CAME INTO OUR LIFE. THE EMPTYNESS I FEEL SEEMS TO NEVER GO AWAY. I CAN'T WAIT TO MEET WITH YOU AGAIN. I MISS YOU MORE THAN EVER.
LOVE ALWAYS MOM

Chance, tommorrow will be a year that we lost someone very dear. Not just a Dog You were a Friend!It was on a warm summer day that a little brown and white puppy would come our way. A special pup you were in deed. You were the one Jennifer chose to love.Clear it was that God sent you to her from Heaven above.It was no doubt that Jennifer was your mom and you her son. There was a special bond. Just between you two. Everyday you watched for that bus, Off she would come,Greeted by a dog with a rotating tail! You would go for walks prancing like a stud, To a harmonica you would sing, one of a trio,Chance,Mildred, And The Yapper Stretch.Now there is only a duet to perform. You filled our lives with fun and laughter. Always wanting to please. Rolling on your dead worm, Look at me!You had so many names, you answered to every one.Penope, putunia,Raph and Chaantenee.You showed us unconditional love. Always a sparkle in your eyes, Then one day, you weren't the same. Our Chance was loosing weight, We didn't want to see,That something might be wrong,It couldn't be.Once so full of life, your kidneys becane to fail. You fought so very hard. But the diease took its toll.The vet said you lived past your exspected date. You held on long. For Jennifer"s heart you did not want to break. After Nine and a Half Faithful years You were taken away. safely now with Grandfather, Chasing Hopper and living in Heaven. Never will you be replaced In our hearts you will always be A treasured family member. Faithful and Free. WE Love you, Chance!!!
WE MISS YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN EXPRESS!!!
Your Mom Jennifer....Grandma, Stretch and Milly
June 1996-Feb. 2006

You were always there for us and gave us much love,joy and comfort for so many years. You had each other to love and care for also. The two of you were so close that when it was time to die you were ready to go together. You are greatly missed. There is so much that cannot be adequately expressed.
We just miss touching and looking at you- so many hours were spent doing just that.

Love, Your Mom and Dad

We love you so very much and miss you!
Take care buddie!
We'll meet again soon!

Michele, Steve, Maddie & Molly

The most special, darling dog. There will be no other like her.

Mary Cay Brock

CHANEL,

MY LITTLE GIRL!!! I LOVE YOU HERE NOW AND FOREVER.

THOSE BEAUTIFUL EYES, THOSE LOOKS OF LOVE, THE RIDES WE TOOK.... I MISS THESE THINGS AND SO MUCH MORE EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE ON EARTH. WE WILL BE WITH EACH OTHER SOON. FORGIVE ME FOR LETTING THEM TAKE YOU FROM ME.

I LOVE YOU WITH ALL HEART!!!!!!!!!

I WILL BE WITH YOU AGAIN,

Carol Ebdon

I would search the globe a million times if I could've found the fountain of youth for Chanel.
She was (and will always be) my sister and best friend.
There is such a void without her.
I am so thankful to G-d that we got to share part of our lives together. What a beautiful spirited soul.
I carry you with me always Chanel. I love you beyond words can express.
Until we are together again, Love your sister Linda.

Chanel,

Alissa

Chang, you will be greatly missed. You were a very special boy, and will always have a special place in the hearts of all that knew you. I know that you ran over the bridge, running on legs that had been painful for so long. Your sister and cousins now have another to help keep watch until we all meet again.

Your Parents,
Cat and Eric

My dearest Channel, my precious, precious baby boy, I love you and miss you so very much, and so does Kashmire, he's been looking around the house for you since you've been gone.
We had a very special bond from the moment our eyes met....out of a litter of kittens that looked identical, (all siamese) you were the one that looked into my eyes and touched my hand and my heart for almost 18 years.
You were my faithful and loving companion giving me unconditionnal love and affection. You were so much loved and cared for also.
You slept by my side every night, cuddling into me with your little head on my shoulder and your arm on my chest. My nights will never be the same without you by my side. You would greet me at the door when I came home from work and follow me around the house wherever I went, you were right there.
You were quite vocal, and every night at the exact same time you would start asking for your special treats right up until a couple of months before you passed, that's when I knew there was something very wrong going on, you stopped talking to me, even if it was cat talk, we understood each other.
You put on quite a fight with your illness, you did not want to leave mommy, but towards the end your little body was very weak and could not fight anymore.
It was the hardest day of my life, that final day at the vet's, I held you in my arms for hours, it was soooo hard letting you go, but I could see that you were starting to have trouble breathing and could not bear to see you suffer and I did not want you to suffer anymore, it is somehow comforting that you took your last breath in my arms and not in a stranger's arms, you were very peaceful, knowing you were in my arms, you gave me a final kiss on the chin, that was such a precious moment, even though you were very week, you still managed to lift up your little head and licked my chin, and even after you passed I still held you in my arms for a while longer.
Once I receive the beautiful hern , I will place you right by my side on the night table by my bed, you will always be with me sweetheart.
The pain I feel is so intense my sweetie, my heart is broken....I know deep in my heart that we will meet again someday at the Rainbow bridge, in the meantime the precious and happy memories I have of you my precious baby will live forever and eternally in my heart.
I will never forget you, and nothing and nobody will ever replace you, you were and still are one of a kind, and my one and only baby boy.
Mommy truly adores you with all my heart and soul....lots of hugs and kisses until we meet again...

LOVE ALWAYS,

Mommy and Kashmire XOXOXOX

Chantel was the sweetest and best little dog anyone could ever ask for.
She had a loving and gentle demeanor, but could be so silly sometimes.
As she got older, she progressively slowed down.
She lost one eye to glaucoma; lost her hearing; and got rather senile.
She likely had some type of cancer, causing bad intestinal problems, which ultimately led us to let her go be with Jesus and be healed in heaven.
We miss her terribly; it's the 5th dog we've put down but it never gets easier.

Good-bye to my furry niece.

Chantilly was a wonderful girl who brightened every single day. I will miss her so much and look forward to the day when I can meet her and my other furbabies gone before at the Rainbow Bridge.

Amy Pollick

My grief is so deep for the loss of my best friend...I simply do not have the words to express it.
Chaos, I love you more than tongue can tell.
I will miss you until the time when I too pass-and you greet me again.

Charcoal - You were the light of our lives.
You loved us unconditionally, always full of trust and contentment.
How you loved to go outside on your leash, eat treats and roll over for belly rubs.
We see you everywhere we go in the house.
We hope you are happy in Rainbow Bridge as you wait for us to join you.
Thanks for all the love you gave us - we will never forget you.

Charkie was rescued as a puppy with his brother, Oliver, from an abandoned barn. They were taken in by some of our neighbors. We adopted Charkie, and he quickly became part of the family. We enjoyed his smile and happiness for about 8 wonderful years. He unfortunately contracted Addison's Disease, and we had to have him put to sleep. But, his memory stays alive even today.

Shonda Hall

We love you, CharLee.
We always called you "Big Bird" when you spread your beautiful yellow wings.
You sure fooled us -- everybody said you were male, but then you started laying eggs!!
I'm sorry you died alone; I thought you had been acting a little strange lately, because you hadn't been "talking."
But you can soar with the eagles now!
You will always be remembered!
There will never be another one to take your place!!
We love you........forever and ever!

Charlie was my blue eyed, blue point Siamese cat with a tabby tail.
He was the most wonderful, beautiful boy ever.
He was so loving and gave the best whisker kisses.
We always slept together and his sister and I miss him so very much.
Oh, our beloved Charlie.
We loved you so much we can hardly bear your loss.
But, we know you are in God's hands now.
Go, and wait and we will follow.
Love, Mama & Diana

Charley, you were my sunshine during some of the darkest days of my life.
You are one of the sweetest, most loving, most laid-back, smartest, funniest, and bravest kitties I have ever had the honor to know and love.
Your courage, strength and dignity showed thru right up until the end.
Your fighting spirit, your will to live against all odds, was seen and admired by all who knew you.
Charley, I love you and miss you more than I can ever express.
I am devastated and heartbroken by your loss.
I would give anything to have more time with you, for you were taken from me much too soon.
The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that you are no longer suffering and that you are in a much happier place.
I pray that I will see you again someday.
Until then, my sweet and handsome boy, take care and know that your human misses you very, very much.

Sondra

Charley loved belly rubs and eating and having you brush him. He belonged to my sister and she loved him very much. His brothers name is Cheeto. Say a prayer for Charley and my sister.

Kathy Klein

Charley was a tiny (about 10 oz) long haired black chihuahua. She was not very healthy right from the start. She had respiratory problems, she was hypoglycemic and around 9 weeks old she started showing signs of hydrocephalus.
My daughter and I took turns getting up every 2 hours to feed her and check on her. We had her on antibiotics and steroids and we did everything we could do for her. She wanted to be a normal healthy puppy! She would try to play and run but she would get tired very easy! She loved to play with our faces! On July 3rd she was very restless and would not lay down or sleep. I knew she was in pain when she started whining, so I had to make the horrible decision to put her down. Even though we only had Charley for a very short amount of time, I don't think she could have gotten into my heart any deeper! I loved her more than I knew was possible, and I know she loved us too! My comfort now is knowing that she is able to be a puppy and can run and play as much as she wants!

Marge Nichols

When I saw her as a puppy,
Delicate and small,
I saw the answer to my prayers,
an answer to them all.
I cuddled her and watched her grow,
As she grew up with me,
We learnt the secrets of the earth and all that we should be.
And all the things that i went through when I thought noone cared,
i always had my Charlie cos she was always there.
And in her loving caring eyes,
were answers to my lonely cries.
And now that she has gone to rest,
i know that it was for the best.
I never ever will forget,
My pretty baby Charlie.

Bex

Charlie left us yesterday his kidneys failed. We fought the battle with Charlie doing everything we could. We were able to give him a year more of quality in his life. He was our best friend. We miss him so and we find ourselves looking for him. His special place was my side of the bed when I was up. At night, he would wait for us to go upstairs to bed and up he would come to make sure we were safely in bed, and then he would lie for the night at the end of the bed. There was no need for an alarm clock because Charlie would meow at 5:30 each morning. He brought so much happiness in our lives. When Charlie got sick, we were told that he may loss his battle in three months. Charlie fought hard and we helped him. We miss him so we never tired of the sleepless nights to help Charlie. We know Charlie was grateful from the look in his eyes. Charlie was a special boy like no other cat we have ever met. This is the first animal that we have lost and our heart is broken. We know that we will meet Charlie again in heaven, but until that time, we will always have a piece of our heart missing. Charlie we hope you are at rest and please know that we will always miss you. Love Mom and Dad

Baby cat Charlie we love and miss you so much it hurts.
You were taken away from us so quickly.
You were fine one minute then within an hour you had massive thrombosis which led to chronic heart failure and left us to go to Heaven.
We will always love you and you will always be in our hearts our darling Charlie, God please look after him til we meet in Heaven. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

CHARLIE, YOU WERE ONLY 1 YEAR OLD WHEN WE GOT YOU. YOUR DADDY WAS NOT HAPPY WHEN I BROUGHT YOU IN THE HOUSE WHEN HE SAW YOU. WE HAD JUST LOST SIDNEY, OUR LITTLE MALTESE, AND WE HURT SO BAD FROM LOSING HIM, WE SAID "NO MORE PETS", IT HURTS TOO BAD. BUT, YOU BECAME YOUR DADDY'S "LITTLE BUDDY", HIS CLOSEST FRIEND. HE WOULD SPEND HOURS SITTING ON THE COUCH WITH YOU JUST RUBBING YOUR HEAD
OR PETTING YOU. YOU BOTH LOVED IT, I COULD TELL. CHARLIE, YOU DIDN'T CARE FOR ME AS MUCH, BECAUSE I WAS A FEMALE, AND WHEN WE GOT YOU, WE FOUND OUT WHY, YOU LIVED WITH AN ABUSIVE FAMILY, WHOSE FEMALE FAMILY MEMBER ABUSED YOU.
AFTER A WHILE THOUGH, YOU BECAME CLOSER TO ME, YOU SLEPT WITH DADDY AND I EVERY NIGHT. YOU HAD NEVER BEEN SICK A DAY CHARLIE, UNTIL A FEW MONTHS BEFORE YOUR DEATH, WE NOTICED YOU WERE HAVING TROUBLE BREATHING WHEN WE WALKED YOU. WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE VERY HOT ALABAMA WEATHER THIS SUMMER. BUT WHEN YOU BEGIN TO STOP EATING, WE TOOK YOU TO THE VET, THE FIRST TIME, HE NOTICED NOTHING WRONG, WE TRIED TO FEED YOU ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT FOODS, BUT TO NO AVAIL.
WE TOOK YOU BACK TO THE VET, HE THEN FOUND YOU HAD A HEART MURMUR AT THE AGE OF 11, HE IMMEDIATELY PUT YOU ON HEART MEDICINE, WHICH WE HAD TO HAVE PUT INTO A LIQUID SO YOU COULD GET IT ON TIME. CHARLIE, YOUR DADDY WENT TO THE ORGANIC STORE AND BOUGHT ALL ORGANIC FOODS, DISTILLED WATER, WE PUT ALL THE FOODS IN A BLENDER AND I HAD TO FEED YOU USING A LARGE SYRINGE SO YOU COULD HAVE YOUR NOURISHMENT. I DID THIS FOR 4 TIMES A DAY FOR 2 WEEKS, THAT IS ALL YOU WOULD EAT, WE EVEN HAD THE VET GIVE YOU B12 SHOTS TO GET YOUR APPETITE BACK, A SHOT FOR INFLAMMATION IN CASE YOU WERE IN PAIN. YOU HAD NEVER BEEN SICK AND NEVER COMPLAINED, SO WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG. THE DAY BEFORE, WE TOOK YOU BACK TO THE VET, YOU HAD LOST A LITTLE MORE WEIGHT, ALMOST 2 LBS TOTAL, BUT YOU ONLY WEIGHED 12 LBS. TO BEGIN WITH. YOUR VET WAS SO PLEASED, HE SAID YOU LOOKED BETTER THAN THE WEEK BEFORE, VERY WELL HYDRATED, WE GOT MORE GOOD FOOD FROM HIM TO CONTINUE TO FEED YOU. CHARLIE, DADDY AND I DID EVERYTHING WE COULD TO MAKE YOU BETTER. YOU JUST COULDNT BEAT YOUR HEART MURMUR WHICH WE NOW BELIEVE CAUSED AN ENLARGED HEART IN A VERY SHORT TIME PERIOD, AND THAT FINAL DAY, I WAS FEEDING YOU, I COULD TELL YOU WERE HAVING TROUBLE, I PUT YOU ON MY SHOULDER AND WAS ROCKING YOU AS I DID EVERY TIME I FED YOU. I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT NEED A DRINK OF WATER, THE ONLY THING THAT YOU WOULD TAKE. I TOOK YOU TO YOUR WATER BOWL, AND YOU JUST FELL DOWN. I RAN AND PICKED YOU UP AND YOU FEEL OVER INTO YOUR WATER BOWL. CHARLIE, I KNEW WHAT THAT MEANT, YOU WERE GONE.
I GRABBED A CLEAN, WARM TOWEL OUT OF THE DRYER AND WRAPPED YOU UP AND HELD YOU, NOT WANTING TO TELL YOUR DADDY, AS HE WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK. I HAD TO TELL HIM, AND WHEN I DID, HE WENT TO PIECES, HE SAID HE HAD NEVER BEEN CLOSER TO A PET MORE THAN HE WAS YOU, WHAT WAS HE GONNA DO WITHOUT YOU?
I HELD YOU AND WRAPPED YOU LIKE A BABY, AND LAY BESIDE YOU, IT TOOK US 7 HOURS BEFORE WE COULD PLACE YOU IN THE GRAVE DADDY DUG FOR YOU.
WE DID NOT WANT TO LET YOU GO. WE REMEMBER ALL THE GOOD TIMES WE HAD WATCHING YOU, PLAY WITH YOUR TOYS, YOU KNEW THEM ALL, WHEN WE TOLD YOU TO GET A CERTAIN TOY, YOU WENT TO YOUR TOY BOX AND GOT IT OUT. YOU WERE SO SMART, WE LOVED WATCHING YOU PLAY WITH YOUR FAVORITE BALL, THE WATERBALL THAT YOU CAME TO US WITH, BY NOW IT WAS FLAT, BUT YOU STILL LOVED IT, ALONG WITH YOUR "FROGGER MAN", YOUR "MISTER BEE", AND "MR. COW. IT WAS ALSO FUN TO WATCH YOU CHASE YOUR TAIL, AND PUT YOUR BALL ON YOUR BACK AND LET IT ROLL OFF. YOU WERE SUCH A SWEETHEART AND THERE IS NOT A DAY OR NIGHT THAT GOES BY THAT YOUR DADDY AND IDO NOT SHED TEARS JUST LOOKING AROUND AND EXPECTING TO SEE YOU OR SEE YOU MEET US AT THE DOOR WITH YOUR TAIL CURLED UP ON YOUR BACK, AS A PEKINGESE DOES.
YOU HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COAT OF HAIR, AND THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BROWN EYES EVER. I SWEAR I COULD SEE INTO YOUR SOUL IN THOSE EYES.
CHARLIE, THERE WILL NOT BE ANOTHER PET IN OUR HOUSE, ASIDE FROM BELLE, AND THE TWO CATS, MISSY AND PRECIOUS.
WE DON'T WANT THE HORRIBLE HEARTBREAK AGAIN THAT WE HAD WHEN WE HAD TO GIVE YOU UP. YOU WERE SUCH A SWEET BOY AND WE LOVED YOU DEEPLY AND I KNOW YOU LOVED US, AND YOU KNEW HOW MUCH WE LOVED YOU.
JAMIE, JEREMY, AND JESSICA AND ALL THEIR FRIENDS AND NOW THEIR SPOUSES ALL MISS YOU AS WELL, YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD, WE GOT CARDS FROM THEM EXPRESSING THEIR DEEP GRIEF. MISS TERRI, WHO HAD GROOMED YOU ALL YOUR LIFE, HAS A PICTURE THAT SHE TOOK OF YOU WHEN YOU WERE A LITTLE BOY, SHE IS GIVING US THAT PICTURE. EVERYBODY THAT CAME IN CONTACT WITH YOU FEEL IN LOVE.

My Charlie is and always will be a beautiful charcoal grey lady cat, well mannered and even tempered sweetheart. She developed kidney failure 5 years ago and this in turn affected her heart. She received sub-q fluids about every 2 weeks since then, but her heart began to give her problems and I lost her yesterday to respiratory failure/heart failure. I loved her so much and miss her so terribly even though I know she is in a better place-heaven. The loss is so difficult to deal with-the pain is so great and I know time will help, but I just need to know how do I get through this. I have faced human death before and somehow it seemed easier. This cat was at my side everyday of my life for 18 years and was always there for me-I guess I am just the lost soul trying to get through the grieving process. My friends and family have been very supportive, but home just isn't the same without my dear sweet Charlie. Please help.

Charlie was a dear friend who would follow you around and lie down next to you.
His tail would be wagging as soon as you pulled into the driveway, barking to welcome you home.
He began to develop cancer and it was decided that it was time to let him go.
As a friend we will miss him dearly!!

David, Cheryl and Melissa Schupp

The only word that can be used to describe Charlie, my 105 lb flat-coated retriever, is "loved."
He loved and was loved unconditionally.
He played, he ate, he loved with all he had.
Words cannot describe how much I will miss his breath against my leg as I eat or his fur against my skin as I sleep. He truly was a "good dog."
May God give peace and rest to his soul and may Charlie know the countless amount love that I will always have for him.

Lesley Raisor

He was a pure white bundle of love.

Eve Sheridan

THE GREATEST MALTESE EVER!
ALWAYS ON MY MIND!!

Angie and Dave Swanson

He was a good cat and a good friend.

Christine Musal

My husband picked Charlie up on a cold winter day in Iowa, just happened to be the day after my birthday.
He was maybe 7 pounds soaking wet.
He was a stray and had been for awhile from what we could tell.
We already had two other dogs (strays) and weren't looking to increase our family, but there he was.
He had a docked tail and when he was happy, he would shake his behind like nobody's business, so we nicknamed him "Shaky Butt".
We also referred to him as our "bug" 'cause he was so tiny.

He was a great addition to our family since one of our other dogs was still a puppy and she loved to play.
He gained about 5 pounds by the new year and he became the light of our little family.
Charlie only ended up being 12 pounds at most, but he played with our middle dog, Gracie, like he was as big as she was (30 lbs).
Our family recently went through 2 moves and a career change, but that allowed mommy to stay home with all three dogs.
They loved having me there all the time and are even more spoiled than before.
The weekend before we had to put him down, he was playing outside with the other dogs while I was gone on an errand.
When I arrived home, Charlie was dragging his back legs.
He could sort of stand, but was definitely having issues.
We took him to the vet where they told us that he had slipped a disc in his lower back.
Our options were very limited.
The vet gave us some anti-inflamatories, but not much hope they would work.
We gave it a couple days, but he only got worse.
He stopped eating on Tuesday and when my husband got home from his job early Wednesday morning, we made the decision to put him down since he'd shown no improvement.
Neither of us had ever made a decision like this in our lives.
We've also never been closer to any pets than we are with Copper and Gracie and Charlie.
It was devastating for Cody and I, but I promised Charlie that I wouldn't leave him alone.
While Cody waited in
the car, I held my little baby so he wouldn't be scared.
I was very grateful for the vet that took care of us that day.
She was very caring and I really needed that.
I started crying and they understood.
I held onto Charlie until I laid him in the ground.
We planted flowers on his grave this weekend.
We had to bury him at my husband's parent's house as we don't have a permanent place of our own to do so, but he is laying beside my husband's family's dog who died 3 years ago.
We still haven't had the opportunity to take our two dogs down to visit him.
We will when we get a chance.
Gracie has a hard time with it because she played with Charlie the most.
Copper is 8 and Gracie is 4 so Charlie was the perfect playmate.

Charlie was our little man, and no matter if we happen to find another stray, he will forever be our little baby boy.
We miss you and love you very much.

Cody & Janie Krause

When we met Charlie he was scrawny, had lost most of his fur.
But he was friendly, and had his own strange way about him.
He had long legs, long tail.
He showed obvious signs of having "Siamese" in him, but he was definitively a tabby.

As we didn't know who his owner was, we gave him the name "Stranger".
For several weeks, he would come back - get some food and return some friendship.
We eventually found his owner; who took him back.

About 6 months after that, we saw him again.
He was weak; emaciated, had lost most of his fur and was longing for attention.
We adopted him at that time.

We took him to the vet, and found out that he was allergic to flee bites.
With some medication (to all our cats) the flees died off, and he started to recover.
When we took him to the vet, we found that he had a heart murmur.

Over the past 6 months or so, he started to play again, and act as a kitten sometimes; something that I learned later he never really did with his previous owner.
He would snort as he would play with the string.
He would get toys, and place them up on the bed with us, as an invitation for us to play with him.

Several times, when we came home - Wendy noticed that I didn't make the bed (Almost normal).
A couple of times, I noticed that Wendy didn't make the bed (Very abnormal).
After Wendy left me with a stern rebuke, I made the bed.
When I got home, the bed was again a mess.
But this time something was different.
Charlie was under the covers.
Over the next few days, we noticed that he would 'plow' his way under the covers to keep warm, totally unmaking the bed.

Over the few months that we had him, he was consistently at our bed at night, taking his place at our feet.
I was never sure if he was getting warm from our feet, or keeping our feet warm.

About a week ago - General, Tina and Charlie seemed to fall ill.
I thought that it might be some kind of kitty cold, and after a couple of days Tina started to recover.
Then General recovered.
Charlie didn't recover.
We took him to the vet on Friday - and he was diagnosed with kidney failure.

I was unable to locate a place (given the late time just before a weekend) to perform dialysis on Charlie.
I was able to find other forms of treatment, which we tried.

Unfortunately - on October 6, 2007, Charlie succumbed at 8:30pm.
We will miss the neck massages, the slight howl in his meow, the long curious tail, the begging for food, and the butt massage reminder that he still hadn't been fed his favorite soft treat.

After he passed, Wendy and I realized just how much we will miss this annoying, troublesome, food gobbling, litter box filling Stranger.

Dan French / Wendy Hoffmann

Charlie Boy. 17 Years of love and affection. I am so lost without you. The house is so empty. I miss you terribly. Your smiling face, your happy attitude, YOUR PLAYFUL WAYS. All the fun we had over the years, I'll never ever forget you, and will miss you every single day. You were one in 10 million. Someday we will meet again, and my tears of grief will be stopped, only to be replaced with tears of happiness. My loyal friend. I'll love you always.

Tom Gravel

Charlie was my best friend for seven years before he got struck down by disease and we had to put him to sleep.
He will forever live on as my first love.
Charlie...I love you and hope you are in a better happy palce.

Katy Moss

Charlie was a stray.I rescued
him out of a garage, in the winter .He adopted us, in the usual siamese fashion, meowing constantly or purring when he was on a lap- as usual.He was a homebody, never went anywhere.Today, he passed away, at home,his favorite place. Who will I comb at night now?? He is at peace, and at rest.

Mary Jayne

Charlie was such a special boy.
He was full of expression and just made my heart melt several times every day. Such a sweetie. He will be missed so much. It saddens me to know I will never touch or see him again.
I will think of him numerous times daily for the rest of my life and my memories of him, in time, will make me happy, not sad. I love you, Charlie.

Jane

I remember when I first met you.
I sat down and you immediately came up and starting biting my hair.
I knew then that I needed you in my life.

We had so many good time together-all of the walks, the toys, and the cuddling.

You have meant so much to me.
You have helped me through the toughest times of my life and I will never be able to say thank you enough.
I hope you enjoyed your time with me as much as I enjoyed mine with you.

I am so sorry I could not be with you at the end.
I will never forgive myself for that.
I hope you are at peace now.
I love you so much.

Jennifer Pyclik

I miss the days that charlie was with us, he was my second boy. He became the leader of the family, he was my guardian, he led us thru thick and thin... Thank you Charlie, I miss u, I know we will all be together again...

Sal Rivas

Goodnight my beautiful baby, you were so brave over the last few months and I will always love and miss you.

Mark Hipkin

To our dear Charlie,

Today we have recieved your ashes and we just want to tell you that soon you will be free again in your favourite place the park.

We miss you so very much you were so special and we will love you eternally. We have been to see your mum and dad Katie and Shadow and you are so like your father and later on this year we will have a new puppy but not any other puppy it will be your brother or sister.

We need nothing to remind us of you as you will always be in our hearts and memories, you touched us with your love and willingness and determination to be a special dog and you were just that every day that you were with us, having your brother or sister will be not only be wonderful for us but a fitting and special tribute to your legacy.

We will never come to terms with how you were taken from us but will take comfort in the fact that you passed away doing what you loved best by playing in the water.

We had so much more time to share each other's love and happiness but I promise you that it will happen again one day.

We only have to think of your habits and mannerism's to make us smile you were such a big dog but so funny at times and you grew to love life being a softy and such a well mannered dog who was recognised and loved by so many people.

You had such a beautiful white coat and your very handsome, puppy looking face had the most warm loving eyes, you were one in a million Charlie an absolute pleasure and privilage to be with and the memories we have of you are so powerful and overwhelmingly special. We will never forget your proud walk and all the playing you did with us and with your favourite toys and sticks.

We hope you are looking down on us from Rainbow Bridge as we are looking up at you and the day when you will spot us whilst playing with your friends will come you know and when it does I am going to run so fast towards you and hold you so tight and never let you go again.

Until then thankyou again for being you and for being in our lives and for everything you gave us.
We will never ever live a day without loving you and you will always be in our hearts and we know that you are here at home with us and every time we go to the park too. It was your park Charlie you turned so many heads with your good looks and funny puddle diving, you were so so wonderful boy.

God Bless sweetheart with all our love Paul and Max XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Dear little Charlie,
It's been over a year now since you left us and we still miss you so much.
You brought such beauty and joy to our home for over 12 years.

I remember when you first came to us a shy and scared little kitty, so starved and injured.
I had to teach you how to play and to learn to trust us.
We are so grateful that you chose to come to us.
I miss you now by my side every day when I water all the plants...you were always there leading the way in the garden.
I hope you now have a lovely field of flowers to enjoy.
I also hope you have lots of sticks to play with and to chew on.
You were such a tall, handsome, sweet and gentle kitty.
And you carried yourself with such dignity during your long illness taking all those medicines and visiting your specialists. You were always so brave and patient.
I hope you have a strong heart now and can run and play and climb fences like you used to.
You will always live on in our hearts.

We love you, Charlie.
Your Mommy

Don and Inger Hertzfeldt

Our beloved Charlie,

Words cannot describe our loss, you are our beloved dog and we miss you so much, we miss your love and your prescence and will always be in our hearts and memories. You brought us so much happiness and we will never forget your unconditional love.
Life will never be quite the same without you, but you will always be with us and we will be together again one day, until then

Rest In Peace young chap, we love you from your proud owners Paul and Max

In novemeber 2004, I brought home my boy Charlie from the shelter.
Charlie had had a rough go of it out there on the street for a good few years, and when i adopted him he was around 5-7 years old.
He was skinny and black, very squirmy, with half his back shaved owing to a bad skin condition which was slowly on the mend, and the pointed tip of his right ear had been clipped or bitten off so that his ears were a little asymetrical. Charlie also had an incredibly adorable snaggle tooth. Yes, my fang boy was one handsome guy, and at regular intervals I'd say to him "Charlie, how on earth did you get so F___IN' handsome, huh, my beautiful baby boy?"

Charlie was, and always will be, my favorite boy in the world, the boy who taught me more about love than any other (bipedal or otherwise) and, of course, the love of my life.

Charlie was hilarious, intense, limitlessly sweet and loving, a totally hardcore snuggler (every day, at some point, we'd have a good long stretch of high-quality cozy time, whether sitting or snoozing or simply in a gentle lengthy embrace, during which he'd burrow for long stretches into the crook of my neck, or whatever little body or blanket niche presented itself; he was adventurous but also peaceful, and also displayed some highly unique personal quirks which served to endear him all the more to me, his mum, as well as many others (he had a lot of admirers).

Above all, Charlie was a hardcore snuggler. I think our souls met and mingled during all those intimate times of our physical ocntact.
Even if he was laying beside me, one or the other of us would extend a paw or finger to make contact, ust a light, gentle "i'm here with ya". Charlie was also hell on wheels to my older cat Maya-Papaya, who appears to miss him in rather a circumspect fashion, as she supports me in my grief. I will need to give her so much extra love this next while.

When Charlie and I found eachother at the shelter, and he landed in his new home, he was very determined to stake his place and remove any threats. Hence his terrorist activites directed toward my older girl. It was so bad for a while I thought I'd have to give him up.
But somehow we all worked it through, and over time, our bond grew and deepened. I know that secretly, they actually grew to like eachother and liked having the other around.

Charlie was the kind of furbaby who makes "non-animal" or "non-cat" lovers into just the opposite. He invited a level of marvelling over his personality, and over the drive he had to assert his belonging and to get his good share of love and attention. My own mother once looked after Charlie and Maya while I was away; she admiringly noted how persistent and insistent Charlie was in being fully and physically acknowledged, and getting the love he needed and wanted. Such a good lesson from my beautiful little soul, to request so openly and clearly and unashamedly for what he wanted. To *insist* upon it as his inalienable right. What a wise baby boy.

I know that our bond is of the soul, and that this bond transcends the shell of our bodies.
In a way, we saved eachother.
He came into my life to open my heart more fully.
I have a physical senseation of my heart having actually expanded from our time together. He provided such unconditional acceptance, and "of-the-moment" connection in his unwavering commitment to beingness, to just being himself.

I can see him now, head tilted slightly, looking up at me, or straight into my eyes, or running to me from a distance, hopping like a delicate little acrobat over fences, running up to say hello, looking all macho after a good jaunt outside, having a good nosh to eat, then settling in for some extended loving and cozying up with his mum. Conked out in the crook of my arm, or curled inside my chest as we lay on the couch, or waking me on the morning standing on the pillow beside my head, then settling down, but not before i inevitably had to sleepily but laughingly request "um Charlie could you please not stick your bum in my face"? whereupon, he'd re-arrange his little black body on top of the palm of my hand, and hang out until the snooze button finally shut off. Then, woo-hoo, zoom down the stairs...let's eat now! let's get outside now! let's come back in and play another bathroom game now!

Our understanding and appreciation was a two-way street. I always felt he understood that i had specifically chosen him that day at the shelter, and that he retained a sense of gratitude and sheer pleasure at how his life had taken a turn for the better.
That he was really happy to have found himself in a situation of such high-quality living.
He was not a kitten when I took him home and, as I said, he was also in fairly bad shape.
But over time he thrived and grew strong, and the trust between us became ever more palpable and comforting to us both.

I think the hows and whys of our meeting and that we shared our lives together after both of us had endured some more difficult previous years is what accounts for the way our soulful bond was conveyed in the physical realm, through touch. I will always be his mum, and he my boy.
Nothing will ever change that.

My furbaby Charlie, I will always be so sad your life was shortened by such a serious illness. You were so, so good in letting me minister to you in those final days.
It was as if you knew I needed to try my utmost until I could let you go, I had to know I had done my best for you. The pain of your last days is only mitigated by the fact I know I did the right thing by both of us in letting you go when your body could no longer fulfill the demands of your fierce sweet will. I will always treasure our last days together on this plane, and all the very extra special moments we shared.

I can hear your straightforward endearing meow.
I see your face gazing up at me.
I feel the plush fur of your chest, and that soft spot in the crook of your arm, your inner elbow, your ears...all the little zones where we used to make contact as we napped or snuggled. I still have a sense of your scent, all the textures of your handsome sweet loving being.
Though our time was far too brief, I will forever hold you gently in my arms and as light within my soul. You are warmth inside my heart.

My sweet baby boy, my most handsome black boy, my funny, gentle, soulful loving baby boy, my fang-boy, my little boo-boos, my Charlie Parker, my water-boy, my baby Charlie Kelly, you will always be my number one man. That's just the way it's gonna be.

r.i.p. Charlie Kelly, November 10 2004 - July 26, 2007. I was blessed to have you in my life, and I look forward to meeting up with you when the time is right. My sweet baby boy. I miss you more than words can ever say.

Kathleen and Charlie

To the nicest and sweetest Bichon, we will miss you and you will forever be in our hearts. Rest in peace.

The Cabrera Family

For My Charlie

I lost my baby recently
I had to let him go
I held him gently in my arms
And whispered soft and low.

I didn’t want to say goodbye
I wasn’t ready yet
I thought I’d have more time with him
My darling little pet.

So full of life and attitude
He’d bark and jump and run
Then suddenly it all went wrong
And life had lost it’s fun.

I tried to make him better
I did the best I could
The doctors were so kind to him
But medicine was no good.

I asked the Lord “What shall I do?”
I love my baby so
He answered me and told me
“It’s time to let him go”

I love you so much Charlie
You’re my special little boy
You’ve helped me so much in your life
With a pat, a kiss, a toy.

I had to let you go my love
I couldn’t help you here
Now you can be with Nanny
She’ll keep you cuddled near.

Goodnight my darling Charlie
My loss is heaven’s gain
God bless my little angel
Until we meet again

Margaret Blanchard 2007

You came into my life at a low point in my life.
You were a special gift that made my life worthwhile - and you were a perfect fit in my lifestyle.
You had been abandonedand were scraggly in your hairstyle - but oh, what a face - and those big brown sad eyes.
You looked up at me and let me know that you needed to be loved and to love, and that you would be my friend and companion as long as time would allow.
But time is not always a friend - you were sick and didn't know.
I had to send you away so you wouldn't have any more pain and suffering.
I didn't want to and I miss you so much, but you are in a much happier place now.
My love and a great piece of my heart went with you.

Kate Smith

Dear Charlie,
We miss you very much. Our hearts are broken. You where the best cat ever. We miss you so much, we wish you were here.

Love,
Alex Kast

Dear Charlie,
You are the best cat ever. You had so much love in you we couldn't stay away from you.When you were in trouble, we couldn't stay mad at you for very long.If only we could have you back, it would be a miracle. We love you very much. Love you forever.

Lindsay Kast

Charlie was a good cat, he gave us hope through the rough times. He was an expert on the subject of cuddling. He won the hearts of all the people in the house and you could never stay mad at him. He was the most trusted person in the house. In all the things I have listed, there is only one word that inspires us all to keep faith, the word that means you will never be alone-friend. Charlie we will never forget you.

Amber Kast

Charlie, you where there before the kids and a great friend to the children after they came into your house, we miss you very much and think of you often. We will all meet again.

Bob, Kim, Amber Lindsay, Alex Kast

Charlie was my best friend. He traveled to 48 states in a truck with me. There were many days that I don't think I could have made it without him by my side. I could never asked for a better friend.

Harold E. Allen

Charlie was my best buddy...he was a stray who found me one very cold winter night.
I took him in, only to find out that he had leukemia.
I gave him all the love and care he needed to live out his life as comfortably as possible.
He lived to be 8 years old.
I miss him dearly.
His favorite treats were cheese and pop tarts :)

Mary

The best dog a young family could have.

Joey

My heart cries that you nearly made it to a loving home, and instead died of poisoning in Greece - you are not forgotten

Julie

To our darling Charlie boy.
You have been up to so much michief in your 3 1/2 years with us.
We all miss you so much, my chest has been aching since you have moved on.
I miss your morning cuddles and the way you used to smack your lips together when you were happy.
You fell ill so quickly but we were always with you, even at the end.
We know you will be better where you are now but we can't help feeling so empty without you.
There is a space that can never be filled.
You will always be in my heart.

Sarah-Jane & Trevor Carter

He was a wonderful friend. I will always miss him and hope that he is with his brother, Max in heaven.

Carole

Charlie was the sweetest little soul who fought a brave battle against kidney disease. I miss you my boy like you do not know. I love you always.

Marie Aguilar

Dear Charlie,

You were loved by the whole family,my beloved partner,and first horse. we wish you wouldn't have gone so soon.we will see you again soon!

Ash

For Charlie, I wish we could have had another 20 years together.
I love you very much and I miss you terribly.
I am comforted knowing you aren't suffering any longer.
I love you.

Tina Fisher

Charlie bean it's just not the same without you. I sure miss you car riding obsession. There's nobody to keep Comet out of trouble either. I hope that you and Amber are running free and keeping everyone in line.

Laurie

We will always love and miss our friendly puppy, who died before his time.

Jay & Valerie Reynolds

Charlie we will miss you and your loving kindness and faithfulness to our family.
God speed.

Linda and Roger Miner

You were a wonderful surprise when you showed up in our yard. Who would have thought you would be like another one of our dogs! I miss your crowing at all hours, I miss you running through the yard with us all, I miss you just being there! I held you when you moved on and I will hold you when we see each other again, if you let me! :-)

Angela

A constant, unconditional love of my life for 12 years. As a latchkey kid and an only child, he provided the love that I needed to keep happy through my tumultous teenage years. Even after moving halfway across the country, he would be just as happy everytime I returned. I know now he has a limitless supply of tennis balls and snausages and stuffed bunnies to play with. I miss him so much.

Dustin Riley

I miss you terribly Charlie.
You gave us so much love.
You were my sidekick.
When I look up at the moon I will think of you looking down from heaven.
Have a good sleep!
I LOVE YOU!!

Sally Klein

A very cool cat who loved to fly throught the air!!! He had huge lips & a cartoonish face. He turned my brother & my father in to cat lovers single handedly! He was a comic who would jump on your back if you bent over within 10 feet of him. He did everything for his sister, Clementine. He groomed her, feed her & cuddled with her. They napped with thier arms around each every day. Charlie was a care giver. He slept over my head at night. I still feel him on my pillow...We love you Charlie!!! I know you are flying around in kitty heaven!!!

Kathy Burns

charlie will always have a very special place in our hearts, we miss him very much...he was a good dog.

Kendall and Ryan

Charlie was the ultimate cuddle-fish. He absolutely LOVED to cuddle and would sit in my cupped fingers until they were wrinkled like prunes. Charlie did not live long and I am not sure why. However, he will always have a very special place in my heart.

Lisa Eichholzer Walker

love you now and always in my heart,hope your running free , so sorry xxxxxxxxx

Sarah

Charlie was a sweet, happy hound who joined our family in November 2005.
He was from a local rescue shelter.
His early life was not ideal.
Our goal was to make him happy and teach him to trust people.
He developed an aggressive form of cancer and was gone all too quickly.
Charlie, you were loved and you are missed.
Mom & Dad and your beagle buddies.

Handsome man came to us at 9, never complaining about constant bleeding from IBD. He left for the Bridge on his own, w/class to the end. A truly magnificent creature. We love you Charlie!

Thea and Randy Costa

Charlie was the most confident cat, to the point he let dogs they could not chase him,espcially in his house.
I will love Charlie for ever.
He can never be replaced in my heart.

Frankie Wright

What can you say about a dog that was perfect..we rescued him and he rescued us...an unbelieveable companion and a cherished part of our family..our hearts are broken but he is finally no longer in pain...goodbye my favorite friend...I will miss you the most! Know that you were loved unconditionally to the end!

Claudia and Bob Horohoe

Chan crossed to the Bridge unexpectedly on Saturday after a long life filled with love. He was spoiled for every second of our 12 years together, and lived and died on his own terms. He was cherished. He will be missed. He was a Good Cat.

Jenni Simpson

You loved me as much as I loved you. I miss your little face and puppy dog kisses. I sent your "baby" with you, and I'll bring your froggy with me. Mommy loves you.

Charlie,
I close my eyes and the memories run through my head I see all the times you made me laugh and smile...You had personality plus and a warmth that will live forever in our hearts.

You stayed such a short time really...but we will meet again my friend.
May you soar with grace and beauty in a world full of all your favorite things..you were one of a kind..
All our love,
Shawn, Dawn, Sara, Jessie, Mandy and Mitt

The Boy,

Hi boy.
It's mommmy and daddy.
It looks like this is it.
I never thought you'd be taken from us so quickly.
I always envisioned you'd grow old with us and be there when we had kids but it just didn't work out that way.

Words could never express what you meant to me and your mommy.
You brought us so much joy in the 3 short years we had you.
We all went through a lot together.
Your mommy and I couldn't have made it through those times without your unconditional love and support, boy.
Lord knows you could be a handful at times but you were always there for us no matter what.
Whether it be running around the yard and house like a mad man when you got excited, snoring louder than any human I ever heard, running to the door everyday we came home to show us how happy you were we were home or climbing up in between us everytime we sat down together, you always made us smile.
We could never repay you for the joy you brought into our lives.
You're the best friend we ever had.

Although it pains us deeply to go on without you, we know you'd want us to be happy.
You loved us for all your life and we'll love you for all of ours.
You'll always be our first son.
Cya again one day, boy.

Love,

Mommy&Daddy

Most people know Charlie had a mass of cancer removed a few months ago that turn out to be cancer.
Starting last week he became very sick and stopped eating, we took him to the vet yesterday and had blood drawn for testing.
This afternoon, the results came back showing advanced liver and kidney failure which meant he only had a few days left.
It was told that he was more than likely in a lot of pain, so we decided to help end his suffering.
Today at around 5:00 Charlie passed away peacefully, with Amber and I by his side.

Most of my friends will remember Charlie for his snoring, snorting, and a lot of sniffing.
For the people that knew Charlie during my college days, they probably remember how he would sit in the front seat of my car looking like an old man.
I will remember him as my friend who listened to me while we drove all around the country when I needed to be away.
Some Canadian border agent will remember him, when he asked for his driver’s license at the border check into Canada, on one of our many late night
drives.
Charlie was with me through many tough times, especially when I was having my own illness. He was a dog that had a personality that will never be replaced.
He was kind (unless you are a male dog), but protective of his family.

Thank you Charlie for being there when I needed you.
Thank you for your love and support of Amber and Nyla, and thank you Amber for not leaving me with Charlie today.
This is the hardest thing a pet owner has to go through.

Aaron

(P.S. I did not like the wall you took out of the house anyway)

Charlie you will always be my little furbaby I know god will take care of you.You will never be replaced you will always be in my heart.

MOM,DAD,BENJI

I HAD A DOG NAMED CHARLIE.
CHARLIE HAD A PERSON NAMED AMY.
A GREAT DOG BY ANY STANDARD.
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.

Lawrence Wilson

Charlie was the perfect doggie and companion.
He was loved by me and all of his friends.
He was the sweetest guy. He loved the beach, running in the ocean getting soaking wet then running back up to the sand and rolling, rolling, rolling, then back into the water, then back to the sand, rolling, rolling, etc.
He could do this for an hour.
All beach goers were entertained by the obvious pleasure he experienced doing this.
It was always so adorable.
I will always think of Charlie every time I visit the beach...

Sue Raney

I love you so much and miss you with everything that's inside me.
How I wish to have you back in my arms, leaning against me as we sleep, and although I got frustrated each time you did it...I would give anything to have you knock my glasses from the night stand clear across the room because you knew that is what would wake me up.
You were my best friend, my baby, my one true love for 17 years and I'm not sure how to go on without you.
Although our parting was the most heart breaking experience I have had, you have now made me no longer afraid of death.
For when it is my time to leave this world, I will let each person know not to weep for me, for I am the happiest I could ever be knowing I'm going home to once again be with my perfect Charlie.
I love you, I need you, wait for me.

Linda Leigh Varela

He just shone in our lives. The love he gave was truly exceptional, and he died quickly but painfully of undiagnosed pancriatic cancer. The house is so empty and we feel his loss in every room. I didn't know a heart could break but mine has. I miss him and his big heart. He was a gift and I loved him more than any words can express.

Alexa

I love you, my Charlotte. May you no longer be in pain. Rest peacefully and know you will always be my very best friend.

Liz Ryan

She was the gentlest little soul we'd ever known.

Bob Plymyer & Jeff Schuchart

My Dearest Charlotte:

I love you & miss you more than words can say. You will always be my Baby. One day we will meet again at Rainbow Bridge. Until then, my dear sweet Charlotte ChullaBear Gizzy Lizzy Loo, know that you will always be my Heart, my Soul, my Life, my Love. You made my life worth living. Thanks for being my forevergirl......I love you Momma.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Carol

Charlotte, the Wonder Poodle was a lovely, loving friend and companion on the journey of life. A great teacher of wisdom and unconditional love...dearly missed.

The Hardy Family

You struggled in this world, Charlotte, but you always did your best. I'm so grateful I could provide you with a comfortable and loving home. I hope you'll be free of pain and stress now. And love and blessings to the poor girl who rescued you, but was not allowed to keep you. Despite her own struggles and limitations, she managed to find a good home for you. You both are in my prayers and light.

Ana Luisa Terrazas

Yesterday was the hardest day of our lives. We had to make the choice to have Charlotte put to sleep. She had been going downhill the past year, but, yesterday, the poor soul, suddenly stopped being able to walk, support her weight or eat. Once the Vet checked her over, he stated he felt she was having Heart Failure and was in a great deal of pain. We stayed with her through out the entire process and are having a private cremation & a beautiful Oak Urn made for her. She was 1 in a million!!! Like one of our children. We never ever travelled without her. She has gone from one end of Canada to the other. Her last trip was at Christmas, as we went home to Ontario. All our families got to see her for the last time. She had the perfect life, the best of love from her family, and will be so very dearly missed. She was our baby.

Tom & Cindy Daigle

No matter my mood or if I didn’t have enough time to play, you were always there. Thanks my friend for all the happiness that you gave to me, and also for all things that I learned from you. You are going to stay in my hart and in my memory for ever… sometimes I visualize you running around heaven waiting for the right moment when you and me will stay together again …. I will always love you my friend!

Oswaldo Irusta

Goodbye my sweet girl, I will miss you dearly. I love you!

Trina Tobin

A little tribute to my precious Charmin.
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you.
You were a wonderful cat and a very special boy in our lives.
Please wait for me at the bridge.
Until we meet again please know that I loved you with my entire heart.
Love,
Your mom

Charms was our very special friend and companion. He loved to give kisses and be held. He loved us unconditionally as we did him. His passing is such a shock and I will never get over him being gone. I loved him so very much that my tears flow and my heart breaks for him every second. He was the best cat that we ever had. I pray to be with him one day and hold and love him again.

Carin Spradlin

We love and miss you Chase

Codie, Tom, Cindy, Vanessa and Cayden

Dear Sweet "Big Chase" you are now in heaven with your sisters Samantha, and Lucky.

Charlotte and Phil

Chase You always had a Smile & EVERYONE that knew you will miss you truly! Sorry Cancer got you.

Jodi

Goodbye my puppy. Until we meet again. I will hold you in my heart and love you forever. You were the best buddy. I miss you dearly, you will be with me always and I will know you are better off in heaven, but I will always wish you were here with me instead. I love you puppy. Bye baby, Love, Mommy

Chase, you were & still are my best friend. you will always be in my heart.

Luke

My beautiful tiger cat, Chaser, had to die on
Christmas Day.
A lot of people say that animals have no souls so can not enter heaven, or cross over on a rainbow bridge.
I would like to think that God took my little Chaser away from me on His Birthday as a special present for Himself.
I know that Chaser is in a beautiful place now and that I WILL see him again, along with his new owner.
Life just would'nt be worth it if this wasnt true.

Gail George

Champ was the best dog you could ever ask for. He was very loving, caring, smart, effectionate and my best friend. I love you very much and miss you more everyday. We all love you and miss you very much Champ. You were Mommy's boy. You will forever be in my heart and always with me.

Charlene, Joyce and TC

Andreas Bornhoeft

Our beautiful boy passed and left us with emptiness.
We love you so much Charlie, we will miss you forever. You are such a brave wee man. You were diagnosed with cancer four and a half years ago and you fought to stay with us.
We loved the extra time we had with you and will cherish this in our hearts.
We understand you had to leave us this time. There will never be another like you...

Nicki and Din

To my beloved Charlie who was the sweetest of companions and a true source of comfort throughout his brief journey on this planet. I am anticipating the day when I will, once again, gaze into those sweet golden brown eyes.
Cindi

Gentle friend, how can it be?
That you have gone away from me.
I look for you most everywhere,
And yet, I know you’ll not be there.
You use to tease and make me laugh
Those times are gone you won’t be back.
For God in his infinite way,
Took you from me on that day.
Your health was gone
What could I do?
I knew I had to stay with you.
How could this happen?
How could this be?
Please, God don’t take my friend from me.
Now I stand with blinding tears
And know I’ll miss you over the years.
You’re now with God, and yet I feel…
A wrenching pain deep in my heart,
For a gentle friend that had to depart.
And as I continue on alone
To face the world and things unknown.
In my heart you’ll always be
A gentle friend that’s gone from me.

Virginia Brown

For 8 years you gave us laughter, joy, and unconditional love. Your happy personality will be remembered with smiles and warm hearts. We consider ourselves so lucky and blessed to have had such a wonderful friend and companion. You will always remain a part of our hearts.

Sue

Chase,
You'll be greatly missed!!!

David Carrillo Jr

My beloved little buddy, Chase, passed away peacefully this evening with his family in attendance.
He was such a good boy and was so loved by us all as well as by everyone who knew him.
He had a happy, active life and loved to play with his people. He loved to play frisbee, loved to chase the squirrels and the butterflies.
There will never be another dog like Chase.
He was the best companion we could have ever asked for.
Loyal, true, loving.

Tammy Barbour

Born 14 years ago in Wharton County, she grew up and lived the remainder of her life in Bay City, TX, Matagorda County.
She moved to Bay City with her mother Rhonda, Grandmother Brenda, Aunt Kathy, Uncle Ronnie, and her Brother Dog.
In her 14 years she has seen here family grow from just aunts and an uncle to a
niece and nephews.
At times she may not have seemed to like all the commotion that they brought, but in the end we knew she loved them.

Cha’Tara was always the feisty one in our family so it sadden us when she presented with an illness three and a half years ago.
After being treated for that illness she was on the path to good health.
But with all good things, it did not last.

Illness struck again.
With various aliments causing this new illness we understood this sickness would be a lot harder on her as well as the family.

So as a family we decided the most humane thing to do would be to put her and her suffering to rest .
The family thought it would be unusually cruel to keep her in a place where she was in constant pain.
It was the hardest decision we’ve
ever had to face.
We hope and pray that she is in a better place with no suffering.

May our beloved Cha’Tara be accepted into heaven, where she will find part of her family already waiting.

Cha’Tara will leave behind her Mother Rhonda L. Clegg (Jones);
Step-father Brandon S. Clegg;
Grandmother Brenda J. Jones;
Aunt Jaclyn J. Jones;
Uncle Ronald L. Jones;
Aunt Kathy B. Richardson;
and Cousins JaCorie Kinsey, Khalil
Woods, and Brice Turner.

To Chatka, the sweetest and most loving boy ever.

We love you and miss you very much.
We know we will see you again, but that doesn't stop the hurt that we feel now.

We know that where you are now there is no pain and that you can run and jump again and that you have new friends to play with.

But wait for us there too.
We will see you one day and we will all be together again.

Chilly and Uncle Ike say hi, they miss you too.

We love you Bubba.
Be a good boy.

Love always,

Mom and Pop

Thanks for being a great dog, Chatt. We'll miss you. So long, girl.

Tom, Nancy, Shannon, and Mike

CHAUNCIE IS THE ANGEL THAT SAVED MY LIFE.

CHAUNCIE MY HEART, MOMMY LOVES YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER....

Annette Higley

My sweet Chaucela love of my life my little princess pea, mamas lil girl i love you so much honey.
I got Chaucela as a baby just a short time after my father had passed away. she was so scared when we brought her home, i remember i slept for three nights on the couch on my back so she would sleep on my chest.
She grew up to be spoiled, her favorite treat was popsicles, she somehow always knew the stick was to be left behind for momma to pick up. she was a dainty lady when she layed in the floor her legs crossed over in the front.
She knew if something were important and mama needed her immediateley to come when her name was called in three syllables (cha-ce-la) then she would come to me look up and immediately kiss my face.
She had the sweetest way of "talking to me" such as when she needed to use the restroom she would make an O with her mouth and make a rooooo sound and do a pee pee dance.
My precious daughter became ill on 7/06/07 she vomited a few times, just liquid as she had done before so i didnt think much of it, but i stayed up with her a lot of the night, then the next morning i made an appointment with the vet and as a hung up the phone my sister walked to her and said "Melinda, call them back you don't have to take her anywhere", i got that gut wrenching feelin and went throught the different stages of grieving within seconds of each other. i was caught offgaurd and didnt believe she was gone, she hadnt made one small whimper not one soise, i felt guilt overwhelm me that i hadnt been there in the floor beside her holding her touching her, anything, i wasnt there for her the last moments of her life.i got up and in a dazed shadow ad went to my room, i made it to the room, got on my bed and immediately lost it, the type of crying you cannot control that makes you cry out in a pain youve never known unless youve experienced a death of someone close before.
my husband followed me to our oom and held me as i lay there crying in a fetal position,my sister followed shortly and layed behind me, both of them letting me scream out in my pain and anguish and holding me, i can never tell either of them what a comfort that was to me, my husband had picked chaucela up and put her in her favorite blanket and put her on the couch. he then let me have all the time i needed with her before burying her in one of her favorite spots in the yard.
I will never forget my baby Chaucela. she is being looked over by my father until i can be called home to be with her, i fully believe in that. I will not get another dog because i cannnot fathom losing another animal i love and no one can ever take my princess peas' place.
I love you so much and miss you Chaucela. please visit mommy in her dreams so she can spend more time with you hunny.

Melinda

It has been only a few months since I lost you Chauncey. Each day is a little better as I know you are not suffering anymore. I do not love you any less. I think of you every day and will light a candle each Monday night in your memory. Wait for me at the bridge and I will see you one day. I love you my friend.

Angie Merritt

I will never forget the joy and special times we have had. You have been the most special boy. I will never forget you. You could always change my bad moods, as soon as I walked in the door. You were always there to make me happy, to show me that things could never be as bad as they seemed. Chauncey, you will always be my best friend. I will never forget you.

Barbara Jack

We all love an miss you so much.
You brought us so many years of happiness.
We are sorry you had to suffer on Thursday.
Keep on singing!!
We will alway be listening.

Ruthanne McCormack

Chauncy was one of a kind. He honestly was the most lovable, loyal and joyful dog I have ever been around. He was a big baby and I loved to feed that personality in him. He'll always be my boy. He left us much too soon, but I thank God for nine and a half WONDERFUL years with him. He will be missed. I love you Chauncy and always will!

Rob

You brought so much joy into my life and now it's time to let you go. I hope you're happy at the bridge playing with you cousins Rascal, Smoky, and your previous siblings that you had never met - Ginger, Monster, and Toby. I hope you're enjoying a wonderful family reunion. I can't wait to see you again....
Love Always,
Mommy

My little boy, and my best friends, I miss you more than words could ever say

Tammy

I LOVE AND MISS YOU CHECKERS.

Jerry Morris

Checkers:
I know you and I weren't together long,but I managed to love you just the same. I am sorry we couldn't get to know each other better,but I had to do what a good Mommy should do,and that is to let you go to the Bridge earlier than usual. Play with Emma and Dizzy,and all of your new friends. Mommy loves and misses you. Until next time.

Dawn Lord

We will always love you and remember your sweet beautiful, lovable face. You were the most gentle and special dog.
See you in Heaven

Nicole

Checkers, you were always love in a fur suit.
Your prupose in life was to love and be loved.
You have my heart and will always be my true love.
I am having a hard time letting you go and I go to sleep at night pretending you are on your pillow above my head.
My grief is unrelenting and I miss your sweet and mellow spirit.
We had that special bond that only a few ever experience.
Words could never express how very much I love you.
Sleep well.
I will see you in heaven.

Desiree and Hal

You had a rough start when you came into the world, but you made it, and came home to live with me and the cats.
You always looked like a little man in a fur coat. I am still crazy about you. You had so much personality. You made me laugh. I loved when you did your little happy dance on the bed before you would snuggle with me. You had to find the perfect spot.
In your 4 1/2 years on this earth, you touched a lot of lives and a lot of people loved you. I'm sorry that man left the door open. I thought you were safe at home. I would have done anything to protect you.
You brought me so much joy!
I will miss you every day.

Becky

I just wanted to pay tribute to a very loving family dog... Cheeba.
She was very special to all of us and will be deeply missed.
I find comfort in knowing all dogs go to heaven and she is waiting there at the Rainbow bridge.
We love you Cheeba and will miss you more than you will ever know.
Go on and have fun and play... and lay in the warm sun... you always loved that.

Melissa Romero

He suddenly got wet tail disease and passed away on the same day. We will always remember him as a happy loving hamster.

Rachel

To Cheeks, a cat who purred the moment i picked her up at the shelter and never stopped even the day she died.
A cat who wouldn't even blink an eye if a big dog came running into the room.
She had the confidence of a tiger and the heart of a lamb.
She comforted me when my dog was diagnosed with cancer, like she knew, she jumped in my lap and put her paw on my arm.
Cheeks I hope you get all the whipped cream and fried chicken you want in heaven.
We love and miss you very much...Mom, Amber and Dusty

Jan

My beautiful big-eyed Cheeky Boy, I still can't believe you're gone, you were playing this time last week and I took you to the vets because you had lost some weight.
I didn't expect you to have so many problems and to not come home, I am so sorry my baby.
I visited you all the time at the vets but I could see your fight had gone and you weren't happy, you passed in your sleep and without pain.
I cuddled you when my dad died and now, without the both of you, I am lost.
I will see you again one day my little boy, until then I Love You and Miss You with all my heart.

Karen

You were Daddy's girl..... Our fist foster failure and the love of our lives.
Rest in Peace my angel and remember that we love you.
We were there as soon as we heard, please know we wanted to be there when you passed, but time prevented it.
We were with you in thought, prayers and love.

Kristy Graham

My precious Cheesa suffered from heart disease and had to be put to sleep yesterday morning.
She was so full of life and energy.
She wanted love more than food.
She will be remembered with love and joy as she brought so much unconditional joy and love to my life.
She made me laugh and always lifted my spirits.
She loved being on the couch with us in the evening chewing her bone right next to me.
She always gave us loving when we were eating.
She "helped" me put on my shoes.
She kept the squirrels out of the house.
She and I had a bond that transcends the physical.
I can't thank God enough for loaning her to me for these past 7 years.
She taught me so much about unconditional love and making the most of every minute.
She gave me her heart and that will never disappear.
A forever gift.
Today she told me not to cry and that she is running with lots of energy and no shortness of breath--in a field of flowers--chasing butterflies.
My sweet litte Cheesa.
I love you forever my dear one.
Thank you for making a difference in my life.

Judy Jamison

Cheesie, little buddy....its so quiet without you!Bella sits near your cage, she misses you too I guess.
Hope your little sis Munchie came to greet you as you slipped quietly and gracefully out of this life and onto the path beyond the Rainbow Bridge, free from your struggles of this world.....run free little ratties...run free....you left big little rattie paws to fill, you can never be replaced, little girls, NEVER!
We will miss the little rattie kisses and rattie facials you would give, but most of all we miss the cuddles we would get.
We love you and miss you girls.
Enjoy your time, till we meet again,
Evan, Toni, Amanda and Dave

Cheetah, Thank you for your companionship, love, and quiet presence. You were always there for me. I will miss you and have you always in my heart. Kathy

We love you Cheetah and know that you are now with your pal Mandy.

Joe, Cheryl, Rachel, and Jacob

Our Beloved friend and Companion will be dearly missed. She was our shadow everywhere we went. To day there is no sunshine and no shadows. God Bless her old soul.

Kristine Wesley

You gave us such happiness, warmth and comfort. Thank you for sharing your life with us, your loss is felt in every corner of our heart and home. Play on the beach of eternal life, knowing you will always be in our thoughts forever.
We love you.

Eagleharvest

You only loved 2 people, Old Man, Annie and me. Everyone else feared or hated you, but we knew the sweetness of your rub, the gentleness of your touch and the comfort of your purr. It's been 2 years since you left us but we still love you. Each time we think of you we remember how you stole our hearts as a tiny kitten and guarded them
as your own special treasures your entire life.
We miss you, our fierce and loving little "LapLion"

Michael & Annie

Chelsea, we gave you a lovely send off to the Rainbow Bridge. Mr. Green took you to Angel Oak Vet Clinic in his cadillac. It had a red bow on the grille, and we played Christmas Carols on the ride there, while I held you in my arms and talked to you. I knew it was your "time" even though you seemed to be alright the day before. The Vet sent you on your way, so you wouldn't have to feel bad for very long. Chris and "Diddy" came down for your funeral. We spread half of your earthly remains at Folly Beach, and the other half at the Back River down at Tybee where you grew up. I was sad, because I know how much you loved going to the beach, but then I realized that you are on the best beach of all, and you are waiting happily for me there. I Love you, Mommy

chelly Belly we love you so much
you are truly an angel you helped me through so much in your 15 years you were with us i cant thank you enough. you truly are the meaning of LOVE we miss you baby girl
you will always be in our hearts.
we love and miss you so much angel baby YOU TRULY WERE THE MEANING OF BEST FRIEND. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN
LOVE ALWAYS MOMMY AND DADDY

We Loved our Chelsea so so very much...she was one of the bestest dogs any family could ask for...I remember the day we got to go get our big dog, everyone was so excited cause we never thought we would see the day that our mom (grandma) would ever get a dog to have LIVE in her house. But, eventually Chelsea warmed her heart and had already warmed Johns heart. She became Johns dog almost the day that we brought her home. That was 12 years ago, and not long enough to have such a wonderful Dog in our lives...We miss Chelsea with every bit of our hearts but i think the one who misses her the most of course is her Human pet John, God only knows that man has been through so much the last several years and no matter what his big dog was always waiting for him to come home when he would have to be in the hospital for ever it seemed like..She loved him so much also, if we asked where John was she would get up and go look for him...Chelsea girl i just want you to know that everyone will be okay, and we know that you are no longer in any pain, and we know that you know we did the best thing for you...We loved you so much and will never ever stop loving you, there will never be another Big Dog that will ever ever take your place...We love you Chels and will miss you forever!!!!
P.s. Chelsea if you see my sami girl up there at Rainbow Bridge would you please tell her i love her and miss her and think about her daily, and cant wait till we cross The Rainbow Bridge together....You both are in our hearts, and until we meet again, We LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!!!!!

John, Jo, Sean, Donny, Zack, Tara, Matt and Her Furry Friend Hannah Boo

I miss you Pookey.
Thank you for so many years. I love you!

Sheri

It has been a while now since my loving girl has left me to cross over the rainbow bridge; there is not a day that goes by that I do not think of her and it makes me smile. She was my consant companion, always there for my in my time of need. Words can not express what she meant and still means to me. Chelsea, I will miss you dearly; forever and look forward to seeing you again one day

with love;
Mommy

She came to us at 9 weeks old all clumsy and sweet. She grew to be a beautiful girl, one full of grace and unconditional love. She was more than we could have ever hoped for....it was like she was human..and no doubt she was in many ways. She knew just what we needed. She had many many years of great health but was recently diagnosed with Lymphoma. She responded to the Prednisone but she was already weakened by the arthritis and cancer. On October 16, when she could no longer get up without severe pain...we assisted her to the Bridge. Our hearts will remain broken for a very long time.
I'll be seeing you sweet girl....I love you!!

Yvonne Fowkes

My dearest Chelsea:
The joy you brought to my life is so special I will never forget and will always be thankful to you.
I will always remember your beautiful eyes, your giving spirit and I will miss you everyday.
I love you Chelsea with all my heart!

Cecile, Claude, Danika, Alexandra, Cconnor Schlesiger-Kusters

A bigger heart would be hard to find, than the one our Chels had.
She waited faithfully everyday for us to come home and greeted us with a wagging tail and sometimes a toy to play with.
She was our clown and had the ability to make anyone laugh.
Chasing butterfly shadows on the ground - as if she could really catch one!
Or the beam of a flashlight would entertain her for hours!
Always obedient and eager to please, she never asked for anything in return.
Just touch me, she would ask with a look or nudge and that is all she ever wanted.
A loving pat, a lot of kisses and play time, too.
We will hold her forever in our hearts and miss her more than words can say.
We know you will be waiting faithfully for us there as you did here on Earth.
Good Girl!!
Someday, we will see you at Rainbow Bridge, Chels, and we’ll bring lots of butterflies!

Vicki, Jamie and Rusty

Chelsea was the best thing that has happen to me and my family in a very long time.
It sounds crazy but she helped change our lives for the better.
She will always be in my heart and I will never forget her.

Goodbye Ms. Chelsea.
You were the love of our lives for thirteen years.

CHELSEA-WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!

Chris, Mike, Gabby

Chelsea was a very special dog. He loved everyone and was our neighborhood greeter. His love for people was unconditional. All he ever wanted in return was to be loved and cared for. He gave far more to me than I could ever do in return for him. I will miss him greatly.

Chelsea was my special angel and I called her that all the time.
She was always there to greet me and lay by my side when I needed her.
I still miss her terribly and love her as much today as I did the day she died.

Becky

CHELSEA WAS A WONDERFUL OBIEDENT AND GENTLE DOG.
SHE WAS THE BEST PET A FAMILY COULD ASK FOR.
ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU WHEN YOU NEEDED A FRIEND.
SHE WENT THROUGH ALOT DURING HER LAST FEW YEARS BUT REFUSED TO LEAVE US.
WE HAD TO DECIDE FOR HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO REST AND BE RID OF PAIN.
WE SENT HER ON TO BE WITH HER SISTERS WHO WENT BEFORE HER.
WE PRAY THAT SHE IS AT PEACE NOW AND THAT SHE KNOWS THAT WE ALWAYS WILL LOVE AND MISS HER.

Lori Maclean and Family

To Chelsea, aka: Kittybeast. My first kitty. Daddy still misses you. Gone from my life but not my heart.

Chelsea, please welcome your step sister Caitlin to the Rainbow Bridge and take care of her. I'll see you both one day. Daddy loves you and thinks about you every day. Gone from my life but not my heart.

Chelsea is missed so much by our family.
She left behind her 8 month old brother, Tiger. Who has missed her terribly since her passing. Chelsea Will always be a part of our family and our lives.

Nadine Burke

We lost a dear member of our family yesterday and are still in disbelief. She was great with the kids and enjoyed playing and hanging out with us...always happy and ready to go. There was not a frisbee she wouldn't chase after and bring back.

She'll be missed deeply...

Vaszary Family

We miss you, beautiful baby girl.
You are forever in our hearts.

Felicia and Ed Moran

You will always be remembered for your special, funny, cute, loving ways. You're a part of me now and forever. I told you to send me a sign that you were OK and you did. Now I will be OK too. I believe with all my heart you are with your Great-Grandma. And someday the Great Spirit will call me home and we will all be united again! Until then I will remember all of our happy times together. Thank you for being the best dog ever! I love you.

REMEMBERING CHELSEA

Words cannot completely describe Chelsea, a beautiful Springer Spaniel/Black Lab mix, her body mostly white, her face and ears black with the white streak between her eyes to the back of her head, a black patch just above her long white tail.
She was loyal, loving, friendly, very intelligent, and she possessed a certain depth to her spirit.
When we went on walks, we always received compliments about how beautiful she was.

To explain how Chelsea came to us:
One day, when two of our daughters walked into the house and told me to turn around and look, as a typical mother, I could sense there was something to be concerned about.
Again, they told me to look. When I turned around, they were holding the cutest little white and black pup I had ever seen.
We already had two elderly miniature poodles and getting another dog was not in our plans.
We fretted over the weekend about whether to keep the pup.
A friend who was visiting from Oregon wanted to take the pup if she could make arrangements with the airline company to take her on the same flight back to Oregon.
Somehow, that did not work out.
And, actually, our decision was final when we returned home from having dinner out, and we looked out to the back yard and saw that the cute pup was sound asleep with her head laying on one my husband's yard shoes.
(It was a couple of years later that we learned the truth about how our daughters "found" Chelsea.
A family was giving away puppies at a nearby grocery store, but our daughters claimed they found her walking alone on a street near our home.
The street is called Chelsea Moor.)

Chelsea turned out to be a pride and joy.
She was so easy to train and to housebreak.
One funny memory of Chelsea is when she was about 5
months old and at that time a little larger than our miniature poodles; she did not like when the poodles would get into their sibling rivalry fighting, so she would get them trapped into a corner and sit down on them.
Apparently, she had determined that she would supervise their fights.
The poodles passed on at the ages of 16 and 17.

Chelsea was a pleasure.
We would take her along on our exercise walks, she loved to ride in the car with us, and when the weather was cool enough, we could leave her in the car when we shopped or had dinner out.
We also enjoyed taking Chelsea on trips; she loved the adventure and she adjusted well to staying in hotels.
Chelsea loved toys or "prizes", and she never made a mess.
Chelsea loved Christmas; she never got into the packages; but on Christmas morning, it did not take her long to find her present.
We have a really neat photo of Chelsea's last Christmas; even though she was completely blind, she was standing at the tree as if she was looking at the pretty lights and ornaments.

When Chelsea was 3 years old --- along came Bubba.

(See our tribute to Bubba Warren Simpson who went to the RainBow Bridge on September 15, 2007.)

Chelsea, soon it will be 5 years ago that you went to the Rainbow Bridge.
We still shed some tears.
We love you so much and will always miss you. Please help Bubba; as he was approaching the Rainbow Bridge, we told him to find you.

Mama and Daddy

Never has a dog been more loved or missed than Chelsea. My heart was broken that day in December when you left us. My memories of you watching TV and scrambling to the TV to see your favorite commercials helps me smile through the tears of losing you. You were Mommy's baby cheeks and I will love you forever.

Candy

Our beloved Chelsea, we miss you, love you and believe we will see you again in Heaven. Our hearts are broken because we can no longer see your loving face, feel your beautiful brown coat or hold you in our arms. No pet could ever be more loved than you. We will miss our family outings to McDonald's and "light soldiering" at Christmas. Molly misses you so much, too. She just looks at the door waiting for you. She is grieving just as much as we are. We love you, precious little girl.
Dad, Mom, Molly and the Babies.

Please pray for my kitty and me. I made the difficult decision that she was in too much pain and it was selfish for me to keep her here with me any longer. Everyday, I wonder if I made the right decision and have yet to find peace. Please pray that she is in a better place and that I can find comfort in that.

Tamara Wertz

I miss you so much.
God will look after you now.
I will see you again.

Ruth Elliott

Chelsey was my buddy for 13yrs.
She had such personality and loved to play ball and frisbee. I miss her so much and she will never be forgotten!
I love you my baby girl!!!!

Love you with all my heart, Mommy

A day never goes by you are not remembered.
A tear never stops to fall.
A laugh at something you would have done.
A cuddle at someones feet.
A silly smile you only gave to people.
A look of love and anticipation in your eyes
A comfort to all of us as needed.
Chelsey you were an amazing part of our lives.
You are so missed......Rest now "baby girl"

Sweetest cat in the whole world...

He was my pride and joy and shining support through so many darks days.

When I was so sick and so depressed I didn't want to move, it was because I knew Chelsy needed me that I did.

Everyone who saw him exclaimed on how beautiful and sweet he was... I was so proud of my honey.

He was my whole family really, and it hurts so much that he is gone that I can hardly breathe.

He died of cancer in his gut & it was a long and painful way to go.
After a while the treamtments available could do nothing at all to help him.

Going to the vet frightened and stressed him so much each time that it was always a terrible time.

I wanted so badly to let him die at home where he was loved and secure and happy, but it was just too, too hard for him to let go.
He didn't want to leave and I didn't want him to go.

Finally it was just too much for him and me and I decided to take him into the vet for that final visit.
He was scared, he was dying on the table and stress-purring so loudly.

The vet finally helped us both to end it.

I know, in my heart of hearts that he had only a matter of hours left, and he was so miserable.

I'll always feel awful about pushing him through the door like that, but I wanted to do the right thing.
The vet had said that he really recommended euthanasia, the last "regular" visit.

I'll always feel guilty about that decision, though and unsure if it really was the best thing.

Oh Chelsy, sweetheart, please forgive me and just be free from misery and pain.
I'll love you forever baby cat.
You were the light of my life.

Katie York

We will always love you Chelzey, and will miss you very much.

Ange

To our littlest slugger who lost his battle.

We'll never forget you, Cubbie!

Liz Hansen

In loving memory of my dog Cheney:

we miss you old fella always making us laugh. We had so much fun. Don't know what we'll do without you but we'll carry on until we see you again. Love you.

Rachel, Linda, Mark

My beautiful chestnut girl, such a kind lady. I remember I saw you the day you were born and I knew you would be mine and you were for 37 years. You were such a good girl, safe for my tiny grandchildren to ride even though you were 15hh, you must have looked huge to them, but you were so careful, nothing ever worried you, except when I lost my darling pony Shayne who was your constant companion, after he went to the bridge you were terribly sad and I thought I was going to lose you as well, even though the vet could not find anything physically wrong with you, I know you were pining for Shayne, but you stayed with us for another 11 years, for which I will be eternally grateful, but you were such a very old lady and one day you could not get up and that was the last day you felt the sun on you, but you had your family around you when you made your final trip to the bridge, where your best friend was surely waiting for you. I love you my kind, sweet and gentle lady. I will see you again one day when I can kiss your sweet face and we can never be parted again. xxxx

Debbie Holland

Cher was loved by her family very much and will be missed so very much.

OUR LITTLE FAMILY CHAIN HAS BEEN BROKEN,

Jane Wilkinson

You will always be in our hearts and on our minds.
Thank you for all the wonderful years and memories you gave us and thanks for being such an important part of our family.
We all love you and miss you!!!
P.S.
Tell Tristan and Mo we said "hi" and we miss them too!!

Tim, Karren, Garrett & Cheyanne Stafford

Our Cherokee has had a wonderful life but has had a lot of loss in the last year. She lost her fur mom Brandy in May 2006 and she just lost her daughter three weeks ago on 10/21/2007. They were laid to rest next to each other. Cherokee was our girl who could say mama and who filled our hearts with love. To lose two of our girls in three weeks is devastating to our family. We still have Cherokee's younger daughter and her adopted daughter who are just so sad. Cherokee and Nicole Dawn we love you and we will see you at the bridge.

Dawn Allen and Kristina Pfeiffer

My Dearest Cherri,

You were my best friend in the whole world.
I will miss you every day of my life until we meet again.
You were the most sweet and brave little girl I have ever known.
Please know how much you were truly loved.
Rest in peace my little girl.

Love,
Your Momma

We lost you so suddenly and miss you so very much.
You were the most loving and caring dog.
We will forever miss your kisses and constant wagging tail.
We love you little girl and will never forget our Cherry bear.

Our Love Cherry Vanilla

24 hours and counting,
A life ended,
So precious and frail,
She was in jail.
From the shores of Rhode Island,
To the sun of Florida.
A journey had begun,
A twenty year life.
Filled with love and feistiness,
We did share,
We cared,
She Cared.
How does one measure a pet’s love?
Purring,
Rubbing up against you,
Sharing lobster and shrimp with you,
Licking you,
Lying on or next to you during T.V. watching,
She was a member of our family.
Our home was protected by Cherry the mighty warrior,
She swatted the great beasts of the home,
And the soldiers at the cat hospital,
She stood her ground,
Everyone knew their place when Cherry was around,
A dignified lady all the time,
Her head held high with grace and dignity,
Her presence was always known.
There will never be another Cherry Vanilla,
There will never be a spirit like hers,
There will never be a lovable orange cat like Cherry Vanilla.
Rise up your hands,
Clap them hard together,
Again,
And again……..
Until, you hear the applause that is respectfully deserved for cat named Cherry Vanilla.
We have and will always love you,
You are at peace,
No more pain,
Go Cherry Vanilla,
Be Free.

Valerie, Jay and Alie Wechsler

My sweet little baby boy - I miss you so very much.

Joanne

Chessie was the most loving dog I have ever known.
She loved people and was always happy despite the pain she has endured.
She was born with severe hip displasia and had both hips operated on at age 9 months.
She also has had several large lipomas which caused neurological damage and she had a terrible time getting up and walking.
The last few weeks have been tough on her because of liver problems.
Last night, she got really sick and was sick all night.
I knew this morning that her time had come so a wonderful doctor came to our home to help her pass over.
My heart is empty and a large piece is gone but she was worth all the pain I am in now.
She was with me for 14 years and I have been truly blessed by her.
Chessie is now across the rainbow bridge and with Tom Tom, her feline companion who passed on several years ago.
You guys play until I get there.

Linda Link

What can I say?
She was my first dog.
I picked her out of a litter of 8 squirming puppies.
We brought home one of sisters too, Shadow.
She was all I could have wanted...gentle, loving, devoted...she always knew when I need to bury my face in her neck and just breathe deeply to get right again.
Once we had children, she fiercely guarded them as if they were her own.
She loved to rub her face in the carpet after I vacuumed and watch the birds at the feeder out the window.
She couldn't catch a snowball worth anything, but boy she loved to try!
I still can't believe she's gone...two weeks from fine to gone.
I can't wrap my brain or heart around it.
Such a hole, she's left.
I got her ashes back today and it's like it's happened all over again.
I feel so blessed, despite the pain, to have had her in my life for 12 glorious years!
I'm richer for her presence.
I'll see you at the gate, Chessie girl!
I love you!!!
