Pal, 5/29/83-3/27/98

Friday morning Pal looked at me with the look that asked that I let him go. We went to the vet and I held his fat little white body in my arms and made him look straight into my eyes. Our vet, then gently put him to sleep. I was absolutely the last thing he saw and heard. I just loved him too much to keep him here when he asked to go to the Bridge. I could see him running toward the others, ears bouncing up and down, fur thick and white, wagging his tail and barking his "hello, it's me" bark. I can see all his friends running to meet him and "his girls" kissing his face and eyes as he does his toy soldier performance. One last glance my way, a look of thanks in his eyes and his "I'll see you later" bark and his little body lays limp in my arms. He doesn't hurt anymore and he can run and race again. I know what I did was the very best thing I could do for him. I know that the horrible ache in my soul will fade, but Oh God I love him so much and my heart aches with his loss.

Pam`s Pepper Pot, 01/26/86-06/29/98

I miss you so very much, Pepper. Not one person helped me with looking after Mother the way you, a little poodle, did. Your big heart just gave out and we had to let you go. Now I've brought another little dog into our home. It was a hard decision to make. I will never forget you and will always love you. Wait for me at the bridge, my precious little dog.

Panda, 01/11/96-03/11/98

That day she died, I was so sad, I was that day with my little dog to the vet, he has cancer, he is old and going to die. Just 4 hours later my little darling was run over by a car.  
Me and my dog Benno miss her, I miss her little paws walking, and playing, her green eyes, just looking and every minute of the day, even when I am on the net, because she was always there.  
I hope she is in the rainbow, and that she can meet with Benno when he goes.

Panda Bear, 04/10/98

To the most beautiful, smart, fun and loving dog in the whole world. I miss your big luminous eyes, your great attitude, and can't wait to kiss you on the nose again. Mama loves you and misses you.

Flo and Jeannie Fleming


Pandee, 10/17/92

You were the fluffy dog I always wanted. You were so sick when we first got you. We loved you already so we fed you by hand. You were remarkable and beat that distemper. When the seizures came late in you life we felt so bad. You fought hard and long with them. I saw the look in your face asking me please to let you go. I still miss you but thank you for teaching me how to love all kinds.

Charmaine


Pandora, 4/15/98

I found Pandora when I was 12 years old. He lived with me through adolescence, college, marriage, the birth of my 2 children and my recent divorce. He was the sweetest animal I've ever seen and fiercely protective and loyal to me. I miss him terribly and so does my 3 year old, Lydia.

Papa Kitty, 10/06/98

I just want to say that Papa Kitty will be missed by many humans and one very sad kitty named Mary Jane. He went before his time.

LeeAnne (he was my friend's cat)


Parker, 1990-1995

Parker, I don't know how you found us, or why you came to our house, but I'm still Glad you did. You were so well behaved, so sweet, so smart. We all love you so much.. It seems like just yesterday that you were following me to the school bus...I feel so bad you had to be put to sleep, I wanted so badly just to scoop you up in my arms and take you home safely, but you were too sick, I did not want you to suffer anymore then you had already... I Hope you are Finally at rest. We'll Love you always.

Partner (Mrs. P), 11/23/98

Mrs. P, our special friend, You gave us so much joy, so much unconditional love. Your spirit is bigger than life itself. We learn so much about living by reflecting on your life, your spirit, your faithfulness. We miss you very much, but your spirit soars and you will forever be our best friend.

Pat, 03/17/82-10/26/98

Pat, a.k.a. The Bad, Fat, Pat Cat was my alter ego.
Without him I have no one to have fun with, no one to pick on, and no one to play with. Each day brings me closer to the Rainbow Bridge.

Patches, 11/08/85-11/02/98

A Message From Patches

You loved me so much that you set me free,  
I know it was difficult, You thought only of me.  
My body was old, and was getting in my way,  
The time has now come for my spirit to play.  
I'll always be near you, Love doesn't die,  
It goes on forever, just look at the sky.  
Take comfort in knowing my new home is fine,  
Of all the dogs here, the best parents were mine.  
Now I must go, GOD is calling my name,  
It's time to play ball now,  
I'm sure glad I came.

Patches, 02/01/87-09/14/98

My darling Patches, how much I miss you!!! Mom, Dad, Muffin and your many friends miss you too. How can I go on without you, my love? I hope you like the flowers that I'm going to be putting on your grave, me and Mom are going to be planting them, and they will come up every Springtime, so lookout for them! There going to be absolutely lovely! My Patches was a Lhasa Apso/Poodle mix, and was the light of my life! I got her as a puppy when I was 5 years old so we basically grew up together. She was the most loving, caring, affectionate pet I will ever have. How hard it is to come into the house now and not see your beaming face, Patches. I can hardly walk in the kitchen now without a memory of you there...it's very hard. I didn't know how lucky I was until now, that I had you for those 11 years. I have a hole in my heart now that I fear will never heal. I will NEVER forget you my darling, and I will always have a special place for you in my heart. Although it may seem like forever, we will be together soon, so don't worry. I will ALWAYS love you, now and forever, remember that. I will not go a day without thinking of you...

Cathy Watson


Patches, 6/10/83-8/9/98

Patches, you spent 15 wonderful years with us, and we will miss you terribly. The house will not be the same without you, and at dinner we will miss your head at each chair. I hope there are a lot of English Muffins and Pizza Crusts where you are. Just remember, you will always be loved and remembered by all of us. We can't wait to see you again.

Love,
Laura, Julie, Will, Mom, Dad, Cody, Petie, and Nicholas


Patches, 07/03/98

Patches was truly a special cat. I adopted her as a 3 year old cat only 3 years ago after I started veterinary school. Although I have always loved cats, there was a bond with Patches I haven't had with a pet before and don't know if I'll ever have again. Patches got to be pretty well known around the vet school since she walked on a harness and leash. She was a fairly laid back cat too, so she helped represent the school for some activities, even meeting the governor and lt. governor twice. She was diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney Disease a year ago and did well until March, when she started going downhill. In June, when I was searching for a job and a place to live out of state, she got even worse. I knew for a few weeks that she didn't have very much time left, but I couldn't make myself accept it. I ended up crying myself to sleep nearly every night as I saw her growing weaker. I knew that keeping her alive was crossing the line of what was best for her and what I wanted. So on July 3, after the movers took my belongings to my new home, I took Patches to the veterinary school I had spent the last 4 years and helped her cross the rainbow bridge. Even though I knew it was best for her, that was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make. I have another cat, Delli, that I love very much, but without Patches, there is something missing in my life and it will take time to heal. I can't wait to see her someday with that bushy curved tail and wide amber eyes running up to me, her beautiful calico coat fluttering in the wind. She always loved sitting outside, nibbling on the grass.

Patches, 05/26/98

Patches, you were more then a friend. you were more then a pet, you were taken from us cruelly. We all miss you very much! The house doesn't seem the same with out your silly antics, and demanding meows. I miss how you layed in the kitchen sink, and how you would race from room to room. We all will miss how you took it upon yourself to sleep where you pleased. You were always there when I need you the most, and this I will always miss. You will always be in our hearts. I only hope you know how much you truely meant to all of us. We will always miss you Patchy. with love

Patches, 03/1/87-5/14/98

We have been humbled and feel deep sorrow for our faithful friend.
She was beautiful and knew her time had come.
She said goodbye to us with a longing to stay.
But her pain was more that she could bear.
Good Bless our little Patch.
We will miss you always.
But you will live on in our hearts.

Arnie, Roz and Linda


Patches, 01/98

Patches showed up in the neighborhood after the Northridge earthquake in 1994. One of my neighbors adopted him and took care of him until Dec., 1997, when she passed away.
I tried to find a home for him, but her son had Patches euthanized because he didn't want him. Several people, including Stacy, tried to help me find a home, but we were too late.

Patches, I hope you know that you were loved and care about by myself, Stacy, Tally and Fran.

Marina


Patches, 12/11/86-1/2/98

I'll always remember my Patches. A happy go-lucky dog that always wanted to play and constantly teased his brother. Patches and his brother El Rey were inseparable. El Rey really misses you Patch, as do I and everyone else who loved you. You were one of a kind and are sorely missed. May you romp freely with your dad El Rey Sr. at Rainbow Bridge until we see each other again. I'll love you always "my pup"

Vinny


PatchesS (Puss), 08/01/81-05/20/98

My fancy feline; a feast for the senses! As sure as morning sun beams into my bedroom, so approaches PatchesS to gently pet my face with her soft paw, claws carefully tucked away. She talks to me with sweet meows and gentle purrs. I'm entitled to stroke her velvety fur each evening as she sits in my lap and tastes my hand with a small, sandpaper tongue. Patches; a beautiful creature to behold as she sits in her window and watches birds frolic. To see her napping in the middle of my bed is truly a delight for the eyes.

Patchie, 04/12/86-08/20/98

PATCHIE To my beloved friend. I miss you very much. You will always be treasured in my heart, forever. You brought alot of joy to my life and we went through good times and bad times, but we made it through together. You were always my faithful companion. You always knew what I was feeling, and would always be at my side. I hope wherever you are, you are at peace and know that I am thinking about you always.

I love you girl and I will always miss you.

Patchy Cat, 06/18/96

I miss you, Patchy Cat.

Love Mommy


Patrick, 07/06/96-10/05/98

Little Patty will be so missed. You died defending your family from a coyote.

Sharon Cheffins


Pattie, 4/18/83-12/29/97

We miss her sweet furry little face, and the joyful meows that always greeted us every morning. We miss the strong soft purr and the gentle sound of prancing paws. We don't miss cleaning the cat box, but for the love she gave, it was a small sacrifice.

Linda A. Fedor


Paula, 09/23/98

I miss you more each passing day,  
My love for you won't fade away.  
And even though, the tears still fall,  
Last nite, I felt your gentle call.

Gently pressing paws against sheets upon my bed,  
you came to say goodbye,  
So I can rest my weary head.

It's such a comfort now to know,  
that god has bestowed,  
his loveliest of creatures.  
To bring me faith, of all that's good.  
That love survives as it should.

Kathy La Hay


Paulie-Kitty, 07/12/98

Last night, Paulie, you were so weak, and I gave you some water and you accepted it. I took you to the vet and he said you would not get better. You had the Leukemia virus. I couldn't stand to see you suffer, so I gave you over to the Rainbow Bridge. I'll miss you forever my dear Kitty!!! :( :( :( :<(

Carol M


Pauly, 10/19/98

Pauly,
I know you are in a special place, but I can't help crying, not so much for you, but for me. I miss holding you in my arms and rubbing your tummy and scratching your neck and ears and hearing your loud purrs of approval. You had the most beautiful blue eyes, that's why we named you "Pauly".
We miss you and love you.

P.C. (PreCious), 03/05/86-09/04/98

Diagnosed at 1 year with a grade 2/6 heart murmur, P.C. was further diagnosed on August 10th, after his lungs filled with fluid, as having a mixed form of cardiomyopathy - an enlarged heart (typical with thinning walls) but with thickening of the walls consistent with dilatory disease.

Having beat the odds of living 12 1/2 years with the murmur there was hope that he would respond to medications. Our hope faded this past Friday as the fluid continued to return to his chest cavity, but my PreCious Angel waited until I could be with him before he said good-bye. I had not only prayed for his recovery but that if his time was to be now that we be together when he passed. My prayers were then answered.

P.C. and his brother Scamp came into my life by way of breeding their mother "Nugget" with a friend's Persian "Oscar Meyer". There were two males in a litter of five. P.C., the first born and of the same coloring as his mother apricot and white, was chosen to become my "family" due to one particular antic. One night I was awakened by a small cold nose repeatingly rubbing across my face. Less than six weeks old, this little kitten, just able to climb, had crawled up the dust ruffle at the foot of my bed and awakened me by what has long since been called "Lovins". At that precious moment my heart was his. I gave him the name P.C. which was derived from PreCious, not believing that a male cat could carry such a "feminine" name. He was and remains My PreCious Angel. P.C. gave his affection without hesitation when asked for lovins or when asked his namesake Are you My PreCious Angel?  
I often asked "How could God put so much love into such a small and beautiful creature?". Knowing how is not what matters, but having known such love through My PreCious Angel.  
We miss you tremendously PreCious. You are with your Mommy Nugget now, who adored you and has missed you since leaving us December 26, 1986. Give her some lovins for me, I dearly miss her also. Scamp cries for you and misses you most of all. I'm sure that you hear him and wish him comfort and lovins. Even Morgen (our 5 yr. Siberian Husky) mourns you leaving. She gave me her "first born" puppyball while still in her false pregnancy to comfort me the night you crossed the Bridge. Daddy misses you and realizes how much you touched his life now that you aren't there to talk to each day. We love you! Lovins to My PreCious Angel,

Mommy


P.D., 10/31/83-10/21/98

P.D. was my dear, loving, funny friend for almost 15 years. He saw me through many highs and lows, always loyal and affectionate. We struggled together to control his diabetes for over 4 years, precious years which brought us closer than ever. I hope he knows that I loved him so dearly, and that at the end, when I had to make the decision to let him go, it was because I loved him so. I think of him all the time, and will love and miss him forever.

PD, 11/22/96-1/10/98

PD was a very special little tri rough coat with a face only a mum could love, which I did very much and miss him terribly.

Jacque Abbott


P D, Summer 97

PD jumped out of the back of a truck and into my heart. Abandoned by the driver, we took home a limping dog. Little did we know the limp was the beginning of his end with Arthritis. Four years later, unable to respond to medicine, PD moved on to another life, smiling all the way. He was an angel on earth and now in heaven. He loved swimming in the river, long car rides, family, cats and dogs.......he was so special and we will always miss him.

Nicki


Peabody, 04/01/84-06/26/95

Peabody lost his valiant fight with cardiopathy and needed help to go to the bridge. We hope he is enjoying all the meals he feels he may have missed...fresh salmon with fresh cream, and as much as he wishes.
We love him and miss him here.

Tamara Dormer


Peaches, 03/07/83-11/10/98

Peaches you were the best dog ever. We all miss you very much, but we know that you are stronger and without pain. We will see you again girly-girl.

Kathleen Wueste


Peaches, 10/88-07/20/98

Peaches was my shadow. She followed me everywhere I went, and even waited for me by the bathroom door. When I would leave the house, she would wait by the front door, eagerly expecting my return. She got out of the yard and was poisoned by drinking some antifreeze somewhere. There was nothing we could do to save her. She was the most faithful companion anyone could ever ask for in a pet, and I miss her little presence under my feet, the way her dog tags would jingle announcing her in the room, and the way she kept the floor clean of spills and crumbs! It is now so quiet in the house, and I really miss her companionship terribly.

Lori H.


Peaches, 1988-2/22/98

My poor dear Peaches - she was the light of my life. She was taken from me by a neighbor with a gun. Such an unnecessary waste of a beautiful animal. I will miss her greatly - she was my baby. I hope she's happy wherever she is and I will be with her again someday. Goodbye Sweet Peach - I love you and miss you terribly.

Lori Cobb


Peaches, 1/5/98

I love and miss her very much.

Shari Martin


Peachey, 1/8/98

Peachey, you were such an elegant lady. All you wanted in life was to be allowed to be you. You never bonded with the other cats, I suppose that was because you were on your own for so long before the Lord sat you in my path and you became part of my group.
I did all I could for you, when I noticed you had a problem I took you to Dr. Bill and we tried. When it became apparent the medicine was not helping, I asked him to do one more thing to make sure. I could not allow you to be put down on a speculation, I had to know for certain.
It was so hard to let you go, but when he told me for sure it was cancer, I could not ask you to continue in pain by staying with me. I had to let you go to the special place where there would be no more hurting or suffering.
Is it beautiful there Peach? Have you found Speedy who went just a few weeks before you. You often bathed him and let him lie with you, the 2 of you snuggled together in slumber. I think he reminded you of your kittens from many years ago.
I don't think I could bare the loss of my Purring Angels without the promise of the Rainbow Bridge. I hope it is everything I have read about, grassy fields, warm sunshine, an endless supply of love, food and water. No rain only warm sunny days. And I trust there is
an angel on duty all the time with a can opener for you, I remember how you would come tearing through the house anytime you heard the can opener, coming to see if I was opening another can of kitty food for you guys. I miss you so much Peach.
And in my heart, I know I will get to see you and all the others again some day.

Peachy, 08/16/82-10/08/87

Peachy Pie, 8/9/98

Peachy Pie was a wonderful dog and always was happy even to the very end. When things were bad she would be happy. Her tail was always going. She will be greatly missed. there is not another dog that could ever replace her or even be anything like her. We love you Peachy Pie

Elaine Headapohl


Peanut, 08/01/86-11/03/98

This is a tribute for the most special dog in the whole world for me. Peanut had and has a wonderful soul. He knew when to cheer people up or to harass them to play, he would talk to them. He was such a boyant spirit. As my mom's alzheimer's grew worse, he would watch her and keep her from harm. He would even wait for her and make sure she followed him as she exited the car. He would sleep with me, and on his last night with us, he was so playful, and he jumped up on the couch and when we didn't come to sit with him, he sat up on his back legs and put his front paws on the back of the couch and looked at us, like "well aren't you going to come and sit with me"? I was with him when he left, and I will miss him forever. He was the only family I ever had. If some of you think of him on a Monday night I & Peanut would really appreciate it. Peace: Jeanette


Peanut, 01/10/98

Peanut, the angels came this new year, and have been singing ever since. I love you and miss you, little one.

I was blessed to share the last 15 months of Peanut's life. This tiny girl came into my life at the age of 17, crippled and frail. Her heartbroken mother, devoted to her since she was a 6-week-old kitten, was transferred overseas. In her condition, Peanut could not withstand the long journey and months of required quarantine. Despite a crippled front leg, bum heart, and failing kidneys, I welcomed Peanut into my fur family as if she were a champion purebred. In my eyes, I saw no difference. My heart felt the difference though, as she poured forth her love in tenfold, leaving a permanent pawprint on my soul. In her memory and honor, I adopted another handicapped cat this spring, and have decided to adopt animals with disabilities from now on. Peanut will always live on through them.

Ann


Peanut, 3/31/98

I'm sorry for your pain
I'll never forget you

Peanut, 6/13/97-12/23/97

Mommy, Daddy and sister Emma miss you very much and would give anything to have you back with us. You were only with us for six months but it was the very best six months we could have ever had. You made a very big impact on our lives and we will never forget you. I (mommy) was the last person to hold you on the night you died and I will never forget it. You meant alot to us and you will forever be in our hearts for as long as we live. I know that God has restored you health and you are back to your good old playful self again. Some day we will resume being a family never to be separated again. We miss you dearly and love you very much buddy! You will never know how much you meant to us.

Love
Mommy, Daddy and Emma

Pearl, 1991-07/12/98

We love you Pearl!

Our baby Pebbles, you only had such a short time with us and we miss you so much.  
We know that you are with your sister Bambi now, and Freckles, and even Lucky. We will be so happy to be with you again someday.

Pebbles, 8/1/86-8/4/98

My "Little Angel from Heaven" I'll always miss her. She was a very important part of my life. From best friend to soul mate.

Jani DiMarco


Pebbles, 12/23/93-07/06/98

Peb was only 4 years old and taken from us too soon. She was poisoned by a very heartless and cold man. We will never forget her. Her loyalty, her bravery, and her love will always be remembered. Farewell to you spots, I'll see you at the bridge.

Roxanne Whisler


Pebbles, 05/05/98

We fell in love with Pebbles the minute we saw her in the shelter. She immediately became a member of the family. She was always there to greet us when we walked in and always ready to play. Her presence is greatly missed. It is strange to feel such a huge loss from such a little dog. We will always remember her "smiling" face. We love you.

Nicole and Tommy


Pebbles, 03/22/98

Goodbye Pebbles! You will be truly missed, even though we only shared a short time together.

Pete and Leanne


Pebbles, 07/31/94-01/30/98

I bought my mama guinea pig, Hershey in May of 1994. We kept observing her growing in size and attributing it to all the good food she had been eating. One day, she was absolutely huge! We took her to the vet and discovered she was pregnant! About 3 days later, she had 4 bouncing baby piggies! Each one was different. Pebbles, who just left us, was one of the smallest and the most unique. He had brown and white fur, arranged in a wild fashion. He had a large tuft of brown hair on his bottom that stuck straight up in the air. He reminded us of Pebbles from the Flinstones, thus his name. Pebbles was shy, but enjoyed hanging out with his 2 brothers, Buckwheat and Oreo. He ate everything in sight, unlike the others who had their preferences. Last week, he progressively stopped eating more and more, and lost weight and condition quickly. We learned it was problems with his teeth, which our vet tried to correct. Unfortunately, it was too stressful for his little body and he did not make it. His death has been especially hard because we lost his big pig brother, Buckwheat last month to kidney failure. At least now they can be together with their sister Peanut, and one day we will see them over the Rainbow Bridge.

We love you Piggeeeees!
Shannon, Rob, Hershey, Oreo and Pepper


Pebbles Gutierrez Hernandez, 04/08/89-09/01/98

We (Teresa and George) want to send our love to our beloved Pebbles who is now resting in peace. She gave us 9 years of devoted love and friendship. There is a break in our family chain, and we still feel the loss, and probably will continue to feel it for a long time to come. We love and miss her, and we keep candles lit for her to help light her way to heaven. We shall remember her forever.

Peggy, who only came to us 3 weeks ago. She was old and desperately missed her elderly owner who could no longer look after her. Her kidneys just couldn't take any more and the only kind thing we could do was send her to the Bridge.

To Peggy, I only knew you for a while but I will always remember you.

Peggy Sue, 06/04/92-12/11/98

When I was a kid my brother and sister were 12 and 10 years older then me. So I never had anyone to talk to except my dogs and horses, and they always listened and never looked down on me. Last Friday I lost more then my dog I lost my very best friend in the world, Peggy Sue. She was a very big part of my life and I will greatly miss her, she was my one and only scooby doo. She was perfect.  
For those of you who are also grieving for a lost pet if any body ever says to you like they did to me, well it could have been a human life. Pity this person because they have missed out on a really big thing in life and that is the enjoyment and unconditional love that a pet offers.  
I love you Peggy Sue and you'll always be in my heart. I'll see you at the bridge.

Johnette


Peggy Sue, 11/18/88-11/07/97

You had such a beautiful heart, Sue-Sue. Your great gift was yourself, and your loving spirit drew everybody to you. The bond you had with "your Robert" was the most special for both of you; he was always yours and you were his. We were so blessed to have you in our lives. For now, wait for us with Tag and all the rest of the Martin clan. (We know you'll be the social leader and the one keeping everybody happy!) We love you, Peggy Sue.

My home is not complete without the pitter patter of Penelope's feet!

Penelope Pimple, 6/95-8/22/98

Penelope Pimple the bunny passed on last Saturday. I was on vacation and had wanted to stay home because she had just come home from a 3 day vet visit. She wasn't eating well, but they said with medication she was probably going to be OK. She looked terrible when I left, sitting on our screened in porch, ignoring all of her favorite goodies to eat. I kissed her goodbye and told her I loved her very much. I foolishly believed that I would come home to a healthy, recovered rabbit. The next day I called my friend who was taking care of her and found that she had died that morning just after my friend gave her the medicine. I spent my vacation crying and remembering my wonderful little friend. I just returned today, and we buried her in our garden. Although I have been so sad, the reality of being home with all of her little reminders, the food bowl, the chewed up broom, sweet little tufts of her fur, the empty litter box have made me sadder still. I look at the dandelions in my yard and cry because I used to pick them for her breakfast. My little boy who is just 15 months old was looking around for her. I will have to try to share my memories of Penelope with him In the spring of 1997 I wrote a little poem for Penelope. Here it is: " Hop around the room, a merry dance, Nibble on the Ficus, your brown berry pimple nose quivers, Blanket my neck with your fluff, my silent hoppy friend." I cannot describe to anyone how much joy Penelope brought to my life. When she hopped down the stairs, or jumped next to me on the couch for a snuggle I was happy. She was always trying to sneak a cuddle with one of our cats when they were sleeping-otherwise they wouldn't pay attention to her. She would follow me in the kitchen and beg for apple slices or blueberries as a treat. She even ate tortilla chips. Sometimes I would wake up in the morning to see her TV antennae ears sticking up out of the covers at the end of the bed as she cuddled with us and the kitties. She will be missed. Thank you for letting me share this story. There do not seem to be many people willing to talk at any length about the death of a pet. I will light a candle for Penelope and all of the other lost or needy pets.

Lara


Peni, 11/03/92-05/31/98

Peni was a pet, a companion, a friend, and the child we could never have.
Her untimely, violent death from an unprovoked, vicious attack by a pit bull brought pain, heartache, and incredible loneliness to her family.
Losing Peni was like losing a six year old child.

Peni freely gave love and was deeply loved by her family and by all who knew her. Peni will always be in our hearts.

Bette and Barry


Penney, 1/12/97-10/11/98

Sweetheart, you were a good dog, we will never forget you we miss you so much you will never be forgotten because you were one of my children .....my little Penny. We loved you so very much.

Patricia


Penny, 01/01/89-08/14/98

We will treasure the time we spent with her, mourn the days without her and hope she is in a better place now. You weren't with us long girl but, you touched our lives so much. We will miss you, Penny.

Penny, 08/22/72-06/07/90

Penny was my best friend for 18 years. I have never quite gotten over the fact that I didn't insist on holding her when her time came to go. The vet thought being there would be too traumatic for me, that it would be best for me to remember her alive. So I said goodbye and left the room. When I went to the same room over six years later with my new dog, I left in tears because that was where I spent my final moments with Penny. I have six dogs now; sometimes I wonder if I have so many because none of them alone can fill the void that Penny left. I love each of them dearly, but none can replace my Penny. The only comfort I have is knowing that someday I'll see her again. Everyone should have a friend like Penny. The world would be a much richer, happier place. Her only fault was that she didn't live long enough. But I find as time goes by I can be happy for the time I had her rather than curse the fact that she's gone. I often feel her presence from Heaven and sense that she is happy for me and my new dog family. If this were a perfect life, Penny would be with us joining in the fun. But life is not perfect, so I keep my memories of her tucked away in my heart and my mind, and know someday I'll hold her again.

Penny (Racing Name Penchant), 06/05/86-05/17/98

Today we had one of the sweetest animals on Earth put to sleep. Penny was a retired racing greyhound we adopted in Feb. 1990. She touched the hearts of thousands of men, women, and children over the years. My heart is grieving. I will miss my sweet girl. Goodby sweet penny, I'll see you at the Bridge.

Pepe was found in the swimming pool Monday night. Please pay for his owner, by friend Vern, as she grieves. Thank you very much. You can send condolences to Vern at my e-mail bethk@flash.net. She would really appreciate knowing you have prayed for Pepe as he goes to Rainbow Bridge.

Pepi

A Tribute to Pepi

He grew old and got real tired  
For what you did I do admire  
He could'nt romp and he could not play.  
For on this earth he just could not stay.  
You knew he hurt and you knew he was old.  
You loved him so much and it really showed.  
But you made the decision and had to move on.  
I know it still hurts to imagine him gone.  
You gave it your ALL. You gave it your best,  
but in your heart you knew Pepi had to rest.

My darling dog Pepi had to be put to sleep because of failing kidneys. I was with him when he drew his last breath. After that, my friend wrote me the poem.

Linda Hallsted


Pepper, 02/15/83-05/27/98

Pepper,

I just wanted to let you know that it's been four months now since I went with you to the vet on that awful day.
I miss you more than words can describe but I'm so happy that you're not suffering anymore. I love you and think about you every day. I look forward to the day that we can be together again.

Love always,
Your best friend,
Stacy


Pepper

Sweet little Pepper, You didn't deserve to die the violent death you did. Your Dad's been crying all night you know and now he wants to get rid of your pal Oso because he can't stand the pain he feels right now over the loss of you. Brent's been drawing pictures of you in heaven all night, but when he sees Dad cry, it's more than he can stand. You will always be special Pepper and as Brent says, now you have wings. Now you have wings and you can fly over those fences. You can fly and nip those big dogs and they'll never know what hit 'em. And anytime you feel like it, you can fly back in our hearts to remind us how small we really are and how big and forgiving your little chihuahua heart really is. I know you will forgive Issa for what she did, and hope you can forgive Mommy for not knowing what you were up against. Goodnight, my sweet little angel, Nala will take care of you.


Pepper, 07/30/98

I Miss my best friend, my companion, my buddy of 16 years.
I think of you everyday that passes. I visit your Grave frequently & sit by it and talk to you. I keep asking my God for comfort in this my worst time of loss.
May God Be With You, Mr. Pepper.
I Love You Very Much.
Your Daddy


Pepper, 1990

My little Pepper, sweet little girl. I rescued you and you gave it all back to me 1000 times over with your unwavering devotion. You guarded my purse with the tenacity of one much bigger. Small in body, but big in heart, you were my special sweetie pie and I know you and Pee Wee will be special pals until you see me walking to the Bridge. Cindy


Pepper, 11/91-07/08/98

Pepper was one of the greatest little black kittens that I rescued Dec. 1991. Unfortunately for this little guy, he was infected with Feline AIDS. Between the two of us we managed to beat this disease up until 8 July, 1998, when he suddenly collapsed. He is now at rest up on a sunny hill with his brothers and sisters who passed on before him. He had the will to live, but the odds were against him. He may be gone, but will never never be forgotten.

S. A. Jorgenson


Pepper, 06/04/98

Pepper, you were not "my dog," but since I dogsat you and stayed in your household, you welcomed me into your clan. I always thought little dogs were amusing, but not "real dogs." You changed all that. You were quite the Ambassador for Small Dogs and one day I will adopt a little doggy thanks to you. Remember when we were rear-ended on the freeway by a speeding driver and our car rolled 3 times? We survived and you lived two more years beyond that awful day! What a sweetheart you were. Thank you for letting me into your heart - you will always be in mine.

P.S. - Penny, Masai, Tortuga, Laura, and Fluffy miss you too!

Deby


Pepper, 11/07/87-03/20/98

Pepper (ChiChi), 03/19/98

ChiChi was a real trooper, he was diagnosed with Chronic Renal Failure over 2 years ago and stayed with us until yesterday. It was so hard to let him go, but it was the only thing we could do. He was loved very much and he will be missed tremendously for the rest of our lives. He took a big piece of our hearts with him. I pray we will be reunited again, some day.

Petra and Tomas


Pepper, 03/05/98

Just the most brave, loving, intelligent, wonderful dog. I love him and miss him so very, very much....

Ann


Pepper, 8/19/81-2/17/98

For 16 and 1/2 years he was my best friend, faithful companion and joy of my life. I'll miss his Peke sneezes, snoring, love of chicken, joy at walking in the park, desire to explore new smells and other people's houses, running with his cousins, keeping up when walking with his 2 golden retriever buddies, how his tail would wag when I came home from work, how he would cry to get my attention after he had gone deaf, his smell, the trusting, loving look in his eyes as if I was his sun, moon and stars. Pepper, you were my sun, moon and stars. I will never forget you and can never replace you. May God bless you and keep you safe until we are finally reunited when you will have no more pain or physical limitations. You will always be my pooper pup, my little tough guy--a big dog stuck in a small dog body, and one of the highlights of my life. My life has been immeasurably enriched by your love. I will look for your star in the heavens to guide me. my baby.

Mary and Chris St.Mary


Peppermint, 4/27/96-8/18/98

He was such a sweet and wonderful cat. I miss him following me around the room to be petted. He had a bad heart and I knew this but I had hoped his life would be much longer. But now he is on the other side of the bridge and is playing and healthy, my pain will pass...slowly but it will pass, for I know that he is in a happy place.

Patsy


Pepper Bearas Miller, 05/15/78-05/15/98

To the love of my life for the past 20 years. My prayer for her is peace, happiness, and health. I hope she is waiting for me at the Bridge. May a joyful reunion await us!

Beth


Pepper (Mishu Meow), 5/15/98

I was an only child who had a mother that did not want pets in the house...until Pepper came into our lives. This cat became my companion, my brother, and I took him for granted. I went off to college and Pepper helped my mother deal with my leaving. Then my mother became unemployed for about a year a half after my she moved to a place that she did not want to be. My mother would have gone crazy if it wasn't for Pepper. I helped my mother get a job and she moved back to live in the same state as me. Everything was great!!! I got my mother and cat back!!! Then on Tuesday Pepper became lethargic and by Friday he was diagnosed with diabetes and heart failure and needed to be put to sleep...it all happened too fast! Cherish every moment you have with your pet (even when they make you mad). It's amazing how such a tiny creature can take a huge part of your heart. Pepper, I hope that you're spirit remains with me forever, I still need you even though you're gone.

Josephine Almodovar


Peppers, 12/25/89-7/13/98

Peppers was a special friend. He was born on Christmas and was rescued to our home at Christmas time. Words cannot express how much I miss him. My friend, my confidant. I love you Peppers. Take care of Baby. ;)

Stormy


Peppy, 01/27/92-09/15/98

We know you were the bestest little doggie that was ever born. God must have thought so too, because He called you back so soon. You weren't just a companion, Peppy, you were a member of our family and we miss you so very much. We hope that you found Putchket and Cricket, and that you're all playing happily together.

Pepsi, 4/4/89-10/30/98

I still can't believe you're gone. You left us so suddenly, I feel like I didn't have time to say goodbye. But, then again, there never would have been an easy time to say goodbye to you. You were my special baby, my angel, my little-white-soft-table head-talking dog. Your absence is so powerful, but not as powerful as your presence in my life. You will stay with me always, in my heart. I'm grateful for the time God gave me with you, for you have forever touched and enriched my life. You were my Pessi --that's what I called you. What I wouldn't give to look into those beautiful sweet eyes again, to kiss that sweet, soft face, to hear you tell me all those wonderful little stories. I miss you baby. Not a moment passes that I don't feel your loss in my heart. It's been over a week and I still can't stop crying. You were my friend, my confidant, my angel. I hope you're okay, wherever you are. I will spend the rest of my life missing you and your sweetness. Until we meet again..... I love you, I love you, I love you....


Pepsi, 12/02/93

Pep, not a day goes by that I don't think of you. You were the best thing that came into our lives. We will meet again someday.

Pepsi, 1/15/96

Pepsi, you were a good dog and I miss you. You were so gentle, kind, and patient. I miss you running out to meet me when I got home. I miss how you chased the snakes away when we walked through the yard. Danni's up there to be with you and Smokey now. Keep each other company until I see you again.

Julie


Pepsi, 02/27/98

Pepsi,
Forgive my weakness, forgive my tears. I know in my heart, the extraordinary blessing that was your presence, for these 11 short but wonderful years.

I know that you have been gone for only a couple of hours, but I already miss your sweet, kind soul as deeply as I would any humans.

Godspeed, my sweet girl... Godspeed...

Petals, 09/25/98

Petals died suddenly Friday September 25th 1998, beloved friend and companion to Deborah and a loving sister to Jimmy. Love that touches one time, lasts for a lifetime. In your very short life you gave us so much love and we will always hold a special place in our hearts for you my sweet baby! We held your paw at your bedside, our hearts were crushed and sore, we tended you with loving care, till we could do no more. We watched you slowly sinking, and gently fade away. Although our hearts were breaking, we knew you could not stay. God bless you and keep you safe until we meet again. We will always love you Petals.

Deb and Jimmy


Pete, 12/10/98

Pete, 11/03/98

Pete's registered name was "Pete'sEscapay". He earned that name well through his many antics throughout his life. He stood for life.

Tom and Eileen Means


Pete, 08/05/98

Pete came into my life one month after the death of my mother. He brought with him a gentle stillness and quiet companionship which has been my sustenance and support for the 8 years we have been together since he picked me at the SPCA shelter. Even while blind and deaf he would always manage to find me in the house to lie quietly beside me as though he knew he was always my biggest source of comfort and peace. He will always be with me in my heart.

The best use of life is to invest it in something which will out last life.

- William James


Pete, 2/19/98

Pete, I am so very grateful to have been able to love and hold you from the day you were born until the day you died in my arms. I sure miss seeing you every day and all of the "talks" we had. You were such a happy cat. A funny boy who was also very loving and trusting and I believed you to think I was your mama (as your own died before you were even 6 weeks old). As much as I disliked your waking me up almost every night I wish you still could. Oh, and your purr, well that was music to my ears. Your coat was like silk and you were so beautiful to look at and to touch. I'm trying not to cry so much, but there are times when I just can't help it. I am devastated by the unexpected loss of you and miss you terribly. I was not prepared for your passing as I made the assumption that we had at least 2-3 years left together. My wish is that your passing was as quick as it appeared and that you did not suffer. Grandma and Grandpa miss their Grand Kitty, too. May you be resting in peace my dear, sweet Pete. I love you.

Mama


Pete, 01/12/98

Pete was a sweet, wise old soul when he first came to us more than four years ago, an old stray, no one expected him to last 6 months. He gave us the joy of his company for much longer, I hope we were able to repay his gift by making his last years comfortable and happy.

Kari Kilgore and Jason Adams


Peter, 8/86-11/5/98

The farm now seems so quite without you there to chase a leaf or a chipmunk or whatever you could find. I miss how you could play with a piece of dog food for a long time before you ate it. No words can express how I feel about losing you and not a moment goes by that I don't think of you. Rick, Sheba and I will never forget you and will love you always!!

Leann


Peter, 1/25/95

Dear Peter: It has been three years since you left us. Your brothers Cimba and Francis have now joined you. Please take care of each other. We miss you all.

Petey, 09/15/84-04/07/98

I just wanted to say that we all miss you Petey!! Christmas was not the same this year without you being here. We really missed you looking for your presents under the tree. But we had your picture out that day with us, so your were not and will not be forgotten.

We love you!!!

Petey, 01/03/85-04/09/98

Petey was the best dog in the whole world and I told him this many times every day. He loved life! From the time I woke in the morning to the time I went to bed each night, he was interactive, playful, loving, he was my best friend..
I really miss him.

Mary L. Taylor


Petey, 06/06/93-03/17/98

You are dearly loved and missed. Enjoy your mom, Petunia, and your brothers and sisters who left long ago. I send my love and prayers to all of you.

Petey, 01/09/98

Petey was a white hound with a brown patch over one eye, a perpetually "dufus" look on his face, and a heart as big as all outdoors. He never met anyone he didn't like and he would turn himself inside out to try and please. He was my shadow and regardless of what time of day or night, no matter how he felt, he was always by my side. He "trained me" to be a "puppy mother" because I didn't really know that much about how to be a good one. More importantly he taught me the true meaning of "unconditional love". He was my best friend. I will always love him and I will always miss him.

Mary Stanford


Petey, 06/10/95

Petey was a perfect example of unconditional Love.

Petie (Sweetie Petie), 1/20/98

I got Petie from a friend that I worked with. She was moving and couldn't take him with her so I adopted him. He was an older bird and hadn't been handled much and was very afraid to be handled. It took a LONG time but I finally got him used to me. He was a beautiful cobalt blue color and had a very proud look about him. My husband taught him to sit on his shoulder and nicknamed him "Sweetie Petie". He loved it when we said that to him. He'd start chattering and bouncing up and down. I had him for four wonderful years. It was so hard for me to accept what was happening the day I found him with horrible diarrhea. I medicated him and tried everything the vet suggested but it just didn't work. I had to face the fact that my little bubba was too old to get better and when I was cleaning up after him one morning, he looked at me and asked me to help stop the pain and suffering. I told my husband and he had it handled while I was at work. I cried forever, I still do. I never thought just a little bird would have such an effect on me but he brought me so much joy for the four years that I had him. I miss him horribly but I know that he's at the Bridge with my other furbabies and they are waiting for mom and dad to come home too. I love you little bubba--until I see you again....


Petra

Petra was a good boy. All his life he tried hard to do one thing , please me. I got him when I was 18 and am thankful that God allowed me to be the keeper of such a wonderful pet. He helped me to grow up and learn responsibility. In time I married and Petra was adopted. He and Marc became big buds. He was full of life and bought a lot of laughter to my life. He was diagnosed with diabetes 5 years ago. Shots 2 times a day and a very strict diet (except for much loved jerky treats) He never acted like it bothered him ever. We lost him last week and are struggling with the lost feelings. We love you Petra and miss you very much.....one day we will be reunited. You are a good boy! I Love You....mom

To my beloved, sweet bully, Phoenix. You are always here with me and I love you dearly.
There is not a day goes by that I do not think of you

I wish I could feel you close to me in bed again and see your silly little antics that made us all laugh.

I can't wait to see you again my sweet baby.

Love

Mom

She was like my beloved child. Even though it is four months now I still sit and cry for her when I come by here or see her pictures. I just can not wait till the day all of us can be together again. I just loved her so much, and sometimes I wonder if the grief will ever go away.

Your Mom

I love you Phoenix


Phoenix, 11/24/95-03/14/98

Pierre Rabbitte, 7/3/97-10/29/98

Pierre was one pet that sure demonstrated what love and devotion are. He never asked for anything, except to be held (snoozled). He only lived for 16 short months but added a lifetime of happiness to the lives of Myself, my wife Ellen and our children. Even though we have four other rabbits Pierre's presence will be greatly missed. I never knew that rabbits could have such strong personalities nor that they could have such an effect on our lives.

Ping died suddenly that night. She seemed fine in the morning and the vet explained that it was probably a blood clot that had gone into her brain.

Ping slept with me, woke up with me and investigated all the strange noises she heard. She did not like loud sounds and usually hid. She groomed her sister and protected us. She loved to sit on my lap and be groomed. My 3 year old son loved to play with her.

We will miss her very much and will have her in our memory always.

Pippin, 04/01/81-01/30/98

Pippin, my dear companion, we have had many years of joy. You were always there for me, whether I was sad, or glad. You never judged me, and always loved me. You survived the years with grace, and dignity, even till the inevitable conclusion of all life. I will miss you dearly; miss your sweet meow when I return home, and your gentle purr as I pet you when you sit on me. So long for now, Pippin. We will meet again, and spend the rest of eternity together at the Rainbow Bridge. I love you kitty!

Michael


Pippy, 7/4/80-12/26/98

One year ago today our precious Pippy went over the bridge. She was 17 years old. Sixteen of those years were spent with us, years that we will never forget. She was just a special little dog that was loved by us and she returned that love immeasurably. We thank God for the years we shared and the lessons we learned. We miss you today, Pippy, as much as ever. There's that emptiness that only you can fill-today it's only memories that are there. We love you, our little friend! And we will see you someday when we come home!

Pixie, 6/7/81-8/16/95

Pixie lived a long happy life. Always surrounded by love and affection. Unfortunately, near the end of her life, was very hard on all of us. One leg was amputated due to cancer, she had a quick recovery, but it was too late, the cancer had spread. She died in my arms on a warm August morning. She will always be loved and have a huge place in everyone's hearts in which she touched.
Pixie, we love you and miss you, by sweetie....

May God really have that special place in heaven for all pets.

P.J., 09/80-06/03/98

P.J. was a very unusual cat! He was never sure if he was a dog, child or cat. He was never timid, never well coordinated, never shy. He was always a friend and companion when we were in college, had little to no money, lived in an expensive apartment and had lots of stress. He came to greet us each and every morning. Every summer he laid around the house looking like a beached whale.. on his back with his legs hanging out! He was a very good friend and a special place in our heart will always be there for him. Good bye P.J....I'll miss you..and thank you for being my friend, companion and picking my spirits up when I was sick or needed a friend to pet and play with.

Plato, 04/28/97

Plato came to us as a less than 1lb.4 week old orphan. He taught us everything we know about cats. We fed him KMR with a vet nipple and bonded with each other like no other animal ever has. He liked to chase bugs, eat lettuce, play the piano, watch his mommy put on make-up from his perch in the bathroom, and touch his daddy's face in the morning when he wanted food.
16 years went by much too fast. We lost our little dear a year ago today to crf. I'm afraid we loved him so much we didn't intervene soon enough. The morning we were to take him for his final vet visit, he died in his daddy's arms. We still miss him tremendously.

Play-doh

Play-doh was playful and spunky with my son, and cuddly and loveable with my daughter. He stayed by my side when I suffered my most painful loss. He gave each of us exactly what we needed. Our dog gave us unconditional love and added so much to our family. We will always remember him and the joy he gave us all. He will always be a part of us, and will live in our hearts forever.

We are so blessed to be the humble recipients of twelve years of love and joy from the heart and soul of Poco the pug. An eternal optimist, an entertainer with true comic style, a beloved furchild who has left a void so big it is pressing in on our hearts and making it hard to breathe. Thank you to the dear keepers of the Rainbow Bridge candles- your love and comfort are getting us through these tears that feel like they'll never stop.
Dear Poco,
We love you and miss you and so want to know how it is on your side of the Bridge. . .Love, Mom & Dad

Podee Bear, 09/11/97

I just came across this website today..I had posted a story about Podee Bear when I was living in Oregon last year. He was a magnificant cat. I rescued him from the alley behind my son's apartment in Calgary, Alberta, took him to the vet, had his shots, neutered, etc. He was a gentle, sweet guy. I had to leave Oregon to come back to Calgary to pick up more of my stuff and my daughter in Oregon City was checking on the cats for me while I was away. One day she came in (I was only gone 4 days!) and he was lying at the foot of the stairs...the vet didn't know what happened, and I have been tormented since. Was he depressed, lonely because I was gone? Had he some disease we never knew about? Did he fall? Did he choke on something? I had him cremated and had an altar to him for months...I have 11 other cats (Norman is the most recent addition..from an alley in Edmonton..abandoned..). I love my cats, however, Podee Bear was something else! I miss you Podee Bear! See you later!

Polly, 12/04/98

Polly was a big, beautiful cat with lustrous fur, who looked like a tabby if you looked at her one way, and who looked like a calico if you looked at her another way. She was always ready to love you, and would settle her 20 pounds or so in your arms and lick your skin raw with her loving, but raspy, tongue. Her doting, soulful eyes added to her beauty.

Three years ago she survived electrocution when she bit through a wire, but this time she must have run out of lives -- her liver let her down. She was still beautiful even as she wasted away this past month.

I have known Polly for less than a year, but my life is richer for having known her. She was the sweetest cat that I've ever known, and I loved her dearly. She leaves behind her heartbroken human Wayne, and her feline pals Fido, Harvey, and Ciana.

Auntie Michele


Polly, 6/3/97-1/14/98

Early one warm July morning, you and your sister, Molly, appeared at our front door.

It was amazing how quickly our family grew to love the two of you. You were not just pets, but cherished members of our family.

Your death was tragic. Through our grief, we chose to remember all the good you taught: to love life by beginning each day with a smile, to spread joy and happiness, and to love everyone unconditionally.

We know you are now at your happiest as you run merrily through the tall grass beside The Rainbow Bridge.

We will forever love you, our dear Little Pow Girl.

Sue, Luke and Joel Gonser


Polo, 07/97-03/29/98

I love you still, POLO.
Hugs and Kisses,

The sunshine of our lives is gone and we are grieving his loss.We will never forget you Pongo.We will love you forever.

"Pongo's Eulogy"
After all the loves of our lives,
you'll still be the one.

It rained on us the day
we laid you to rest.
Under the big tree
in front of the house.

God and his angels cried
that day too.

This is how Michan and Brucie said goodbye to you.

Here is your Teddy Bear,
so you won't be lonely.
And a picture of me and brother,
so you won't forget us.
Here is a new bone,
so you won't ask God for one.
And some money to spend,
just in case.
Your favorite blankie,
to keep you warm.
And a ninja sword from
Brucie to fight the bad guys.
One of Mommy's slippers
to toss around and Mommy's sliky
robe you used to sleep on.
Rest in peace, baby.
We'll see you again.
Watch over us.
We will never forget you.
You will always be the one.

Pooh, 10/26/98

We found Pooh when she was half dead and nursed her back to health. She was so loving and friendly it is a very sad time for us and our two kids. They loved her so much and they are trying to deal with her being gone. So is our other kitten we found in our barn, Pooh and Piglet took to each other so well it was like Pooh was her mother. And now she is lonely and has been crying for every night. We would like to say we miss her so very much and still love her.

Pooh, 10/01/90-08/25/98

Pooh recently died, due to renal failure complications. He was a wonderful part of our family who gave us all constant comfort and love. It's been very hard to come home from work and not have that adorable black & white friend there to greet us. He will always be in our hearts. We will miss his crooked tooth smile and his sweet disposition.
Rest in peace, Pooh.

Love,
Jackie, Connie, Bud & Danielle

Pooh Bear, 04/01/83-06/14/97

Pooh - My little friend, my little buddy. I can't believe that it is a year since you've been gone. My friends all tell me that 14 yrs is a long time for a cat to live. I just hope that I did right by you during the last couple of years. I miss your trilling, the way you always came to snuggle with me every night, and your face that was always so full of expression. You had the most expressive face of any cat I've ever known! I could tell every emotion that you were feeling just by looking at your face. I miss seeing you race across the back yard with your tail straight up and your fur blowing in the wind. There will never be another one like you. You were the best. You'll always be in my heart. Love, Mom.

Pooter, 11/06/86-07/29/97

Sleep on my little puppy, I will see you at sundown

Rick Jeanguenat


Pooters II, 10/15/98

Hello Friends,

I held Pooter Toot Toot in close in my arms, with a forefinger near her nose so she was certain it was me with her. I rubbed her tortured tummy and kissed her forehead as she left me at 7:24pm PST, Thursday, October 15, 1998, with Dr. Tracy McFarland's compassionate help. The Doc hugged me while I cried.

No more pain... for Pooter Toot Toot.

It all happened so fast. So awfully fast. It began last Tuesday, Oct. 6, when she ended her 3rd estrus in 6 weeks. She was so weak.

Then on Wednesday, the big change. She stopped wanting food or water. She grew weaker. Walked wobbly, stumbly, barely able to walk actually.

I got her to Dr. Scanlon's place she works out of 3 days a week on this past Monday. The new blood tests revealed bad numbers, especially for the liver and kidneys.

Pooters was on IV for 3 days, Monday thru yesterday. She seemed to improve a little each day. Wednesday she wasn't drooling like she had on Tuesday.

Last evening, when I went to pick her up to bring her home, I was aghast. Pooters was on her side, panting rapidly. Trouble breathing. Drooling. Her eyes were so wide open it was like someone in sheer terror. Or pain.

It was because her little bladder was huge, HUGE. She couldn't pee, and although everyone knew she had this peeing difficulty, and bladder infection, no one at Sherman Oaks Veterinary Group had bothered to check her, apparently since I was there the night before.

Here eyes were wide in pain from her huge bladder about to burst.

Dr. Scanlon was not there. She had already flown home to San Jose.

I hollered for help. The vet, Dr. Habib, who Dr. Scanlon said was helping her on Pooters, was there, but when she found out Pootes had Toxo, Dr. Habib disappeared because she is trying to get pregnant.

I hollered for help again. Techs in the back just stood around and looked at me and did nothing.

Finally a nice young Dr., Dr. Gray came and helped. We got Poots out onto a drain table and Dr. Gray expressed the pee. I have never seen such thing. The pee just kept coming and coming, bloody. I cannot believe she held that much in her little body.

I wanted Pooters out of that uncaring place, that was quick with the bill for hospitalization, but slow to earn it if I wasn't right there.

I should have taken her to Dr. McFarland, The Cat Doctor, from the very beginning on Monday.

Pooters had ulcers in her stomach. That is why she drooled and wouldn't eat, or if I syringed food into her she threw up in this last week. She was consumed with toxicity.

When I finally got her to Dr. McFarland's, the Doc saw Pooters immediately and was aghast. She opened Pooters' mouth and there was a bleeding ulcer on her tongue. I cried. She could barely breathe, so the Doc put her in an oxygen chamber.

The Doc reviewed the files and notes from that other place in Sherman Oaks.

Pooters' liver and kidneys were failing. She had congestive heart failure going on. She could barely breathe.

She had not eaten since last Wednesday or Thursday...

I only wanted to get her home... get a little food into that starving belly... Pooters loved her "dinner dinner " so much. And get some fresh water into her. She loved her water so.

But... I could see through my tears and grief that my little calico baby girl was not coming home again with me. No more dinner dinner. No more tummy rubs in my lap. No more head bumps and kisses. She was in agony. She was so pitiful. So... sad. It was awful. Damn this disease. It really had fun with Pooters. Death had a real yah yah time with my baby. It completely destroyed her, viscously, and mercilessly.

And she was so sweet. Never had an easy day in her life.

It breaks my heart setting this down to you even now. I can barely see the screen.

I first met Pooters II, sometime in late 1993 or early 1994, I have it written down somewhere. I was working nights at CBS TV City when I first saw her... and the others... the other discarded kitties around the studio and Farmer's Market.

I fed and watered them all outside my car door every night. I rattled a plastic jar with crunchies inside and called, "Dinner Dinner! Come on kitties!" That plastic jar was the dinner bell. Slowly, after a long time of getting to know and trust each other, Pooters let me stroke her little head while she ate under my car. When I began working days I had to formulate a new plan for the kitties. I began returning to CBS once a week every Sunday night, late, with enough dry rations and water for a week, plus a bowl of canned food to last them that night. Then around April of 1995, I didn't see Pooters for a month. She looked frail even then, and I thought she was gone for good.

The first Sunday in May 1995, as I was feeding the kitty crew, Pooters stepped out of the shadows of that asphalt jungle. I was so happy. I was so glad my little girl was okay. And she was glad to see me! I could tell. She came right to me and rubbed against my legs and head bumped them! She had never done that before.

I knelt down to pet her, thinking she would scoot away as usual, but this time

she stayed right by me letting me stroke her! She looked up at me, happy to see me too. At that instant I knew. I knew she wanted to go home with me. I gently scooped her into my arms and took her to my car where I had a carrier set up at all times in case I got the chance to rescue a cat. I put her in the carrier where she lay down and relaxed. After a year and a half of making friends the old fashioned way, slowly, Pooters trusted me to pick her up and put her in my car, and take her home.

That was early May of 1995.

I miss you Pooters. I will never forget you. Ever. You touched my life like a tiny furry angel, and I am forever enriched by you sharing the last of your life with me. It was a joy... until this last week...

I love you dearly. It hurts.

But you are in no more pain, or fear. Nobody is poking you with any needles, or scaring you with their anonymity anymore.

I hope there is a place somewhere that you are right now. A safe place. A happy place. A healthy place. I hope you are playing with your favorite catnip mouse, and climbing trees like I let you do earlier this year, and drinking lots of water and peeing it all easily, and most of all, eating plenty of dinner dinner, all of your favorites whenever you want, with a full bowl of your favorite crunchies right next to it all.

Yes I hope you are in such a place.

I will look for you there some day. You look for me too, okay. More importantly, keep your sharp nose to the wind for me, for you might smell me first. Even more importantly, listen for the rattle of our dinner jar and my dinner call, for you probably will hear that first of all. And you and me will go Pootin' down the Pooter Trail together, with full tummies, singing your Pooter Toot Toot Tune, with happy hearts, and healthy bodies, for ever and ever and ever... together. Happy again.

Till then my sweet little girl...

Pooters II Rescued: May 1995, CBS TV City, Los Angeles Died: October 15, 1998. Age: unknown. Perhaps 5 or 6 years old.

Your Ole Dad, greg sherrow


Popeye, 11/03/93-07/04/98

Popeye, I miss you so much. I will never, ever forget you. You brought me so much laughter, happiness and love! Such a good little boy! I can't believe you are gone. It's an ache so deep and an emptiness so vast -- like I have never felt in my life. It was so sudden my little one. My little baby. I feel that you are here with me at times. I just wish I could hold you. One thing I know for sure -- I will see you on Rainbow Bridge my puppy, never to be separated again. Until then, Mom will keep you alive in her heart and memory.

Theresa Molina


Poppy, 05/04/98-11/25/98

Poppy, the first time I ever saw you, I thought, that we would be friends forever, but little did I know that our time together was so limited. I may have only had you for you for a few months, but that's long enough to grow to love someone. Poppy, we I will never forget you, ever. and I hope you will never forget me or your little sister, Amy, I know you would have wanted me to be kind to Amy and look after her for you, so I will. I will ALWAYS love you Poppy.

Yours for eternity, Katy. (and Amy)


Potato, 3/97-6/6/98

To my sweet Potato, whose little body just couldn't take the stress she'd been through the past week. She's my first kitty gone but hopefully she's in a better place and she still knows how much she's loved by her family. We'll miss her so very much.

Amber and Todd


Prancer, 11/23/98

Prancer was a dear friend that went to heaven on 11/23/98. He was loved by Lee, Ilona and Scooter. He was 14, and had only been ill for a short time. We miss him very much. He was deaf from birth, but we communicated by my teaching him sign language. He had one floppy ear, could turn on a dime, and we loved to chase each other around the house. We miss his sweet face and the love and devotion he conveyed. Rest in peace, dear friend.


Precious, 11/22/98

Precious, 02/16/98

Oh my Precious baby. Mommy misses you soooo much. I hope you know I did what I had to do. You were in so much pain from your skin problems, Mom thought it was the best thing to do for you. I hope you remember I stayed with you, but Mommy cried so much, it still hurts.

I hope up on Rainbow Bridge that it's true what they say, that you're all healthy now. I hope you're playing in the grass and having fun until I come to get you. And Precious, Mom will come get you, I promise you that. In a way, it makes me not afraid of death anymore, because I know that when my time comes, so will our time to be together again. God, how I miss you.

Dutchess misses you very much too. She has since the day you've been gone. Her and I light a candle every Monday night that we can, at 10:00 pm. I hope you see it and know that I'm thinking about you. To be honest Precious, a day doesn't go by that I don't think of you. I have pictures of you on my desk so that I can always look and see your beautiful face looking at me.

I know Dad wasn't always nice to you, but I honestly believe that he misses you too. I think he just got as frustrated with your skin problems as you were. Please don't hold it against him, honey, he really did love you, he just doesn't show it like Mom does.

I have two dogs from when Mom was little that are probably with you now. Hopefully, you've found them and are playing with them. One's name is Meeka, she's a Siberian Husky and the other is Pierre, he's a french poodle. I hope you find them and can play with them all day long, along with all the other friends you've found.

Mom kept her promise and planted a yellow and a purple/blue rose plant above where we laid you to rest. They just had their first blooms and they were as beautiful as you! I'm going to move the red ones over there too, so you can look down and see my tribute to you, my love.

Well, Precious, Mom is going to go for now. Remember how much I love my pretty girl, and how much I miss you. I can't wait until the day we meet again. Mom will be looking for you right over the bridge, so make sure you're there!!!!!

I love you baby, be good and BE MY PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRL!

Love Always and Forever and Ever,

Mom


Precious Girl, 10/14/98

We had to say goodbye to you today. We know that you are with your Daddy Freeway, Mother Abigail, and Brother Spot. Our home will never be the same without our little family. Know that we love you and hope to see you all again.

Ode To Prettyboy
You were my baby, my one and only,  
taken from me so quickly and now I'm so lonely.  
You were so beautiful, a pretty shade of blue,  
I loved you so much, I hope you knew.  
Now I hurt so much, deep inside,  
I wish it was me instead who died.  
The pain is so bad, my heart is broken,  
All I can do is cry, words left unspoken.  
I miss you so much and it hurts so bad,  
I'm so empty inside and so very sad.  
You were so much fun and brought so much joy,  
You were my favorite pet, my Prettyboy.  
Everytime I think of you I want to cry,  
Because I loved you so much, why did you have to die?  
Now I can't eat and can barely sleep.  
Feels like a wound that was cut so deep.  
With time it will get easier but I will never forget,  
My wonderful, little, beautiful pet.....  
PRETTYBOY

Oh, my Prince, I miss you so very much. I know deep down that I did the right thing, but I feel so guilty. I wish that there was more that I could do. I miss your WILD WELCOME HOME greeting that you used to give me along with your kisses. I long to be with you at the Rainbow Bridge so that you can give me that Welcome Home again. I especially want to thank you for the 13 wonderful years you gave me!! You were my very best friend. You knew all my secrets, and you were always there to lick away my tears when I was sad. Thanks again for giving me all your love and your companionship. I love you very much and always will!
P.S. Meem misses you and your kisses, too!

Prince Charlie, 02/10/81-06/29/98

For my sweet baby boy, Charlie. Missy, your Daddy, and I miss you more than words can express. You were this two-legged creature's main source of joy and laughter for 17 years. You taught me the meaning of unconditional love and acceptance. Thank you, ""tuxedo"" boy for always being there for me in good times and bad, and for letting me into your world. I was so fortunate to share your last minutes in this world, and I know you left here peacefully. I still see your sweet, happy face in the morning when I wake, and at night before I go to bed. I'll hold you in my heart forever. Look for me at that Bridge someday, sweet boy, and know that I'll love you always. Think of me in your new life, and watch out for those glass tables, pumpkin.

With all my love,
Mommy


Princess, 02/01/92-09/30/98

My Dear Princess, God Bless you sweet girl. Me and "papa" miss you dearly. Buddy and Sabrina miss you also. May you finally rest in peace free from all your pain. Had we known sooner, we wouldn't have wished you to hold on for so long in pain. Please know this: you were the best friend I could have ever wished for and I want you to know that I love you so much! It gives me some comfort knowing that you are not alone, that you are with every other best friend and companion at the bridge. Bless you, Princess...until we meet again......

Maria Tsucalas


Princess (A.K.A. Momma-Dog), 5/83-1/30/98

My sweet Princess. I miss you so dearly. The most important thing I can say to you is THANK YOU.....Thank you for all of the wonderful years of unconditional love and acceptance you gave me. You went through my difficult teen years with me, you saw me off to college, you watched me grow into a young woman, develop a successful career, get married. And although for a good many years I wasn't around you very much, because I was discovering myself and experiencing the world around me, you still loved me just the same. You brightened my life in a way that noone else could. I am so deeply honored to have had you in my life, as my sister, sometimes as my child, and especially as my best friend. I'll never forget your deep, gentle eyes, and the way you used to look at Dad. I'll always remember how you talked to me when you had a "problem", or when I would shower your face with kisses. There's an emptiness in me without you, my "Beautiful Lady". You were the best birthday gift I have ever received, and the most perfect dog for our family. You will forever live on in my heart, and I can't wait until we can be together again at the Rainbow Bridge. "Your Debbie" will always be with you, "Momma-Dog".

Debbie Hernandez

Princess, 02/05/81-05/07/98

Princess,  
Although you were not understood by so many people and they used to tease about your mean disposition, we all loved you.  
I hope you are resting in peace and understood that I only wanted you not to suffer and be in pain.  
You were such a great member of the family and you will be missed very much.  
I love you and may you rest in peace. I will miss you every night when I walk in the door after work, at mealtimes and in the middle of the night. Love, hugs, and kisses, Mom

Loyal Buddy and companion for 9 years.

Ed Perrien


Princess, 1994

I don't even know where to begin. I miss her so much. I was about ten years old when we gave her away. What drives me crazy is I don't know if she's alive, dead, dieing, or suffering. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm only 14 years old and I really didn't realize what I was doing when I told my dad it was okay to give her away. It was the worst decision I could have ever made in my life. It was really my fault because we had another dog that had puppies and we wanted to keep two of them and my dad said only if we get rid of Princess and all us kids were so wound up with having a new puppy that we agreed. I hope she can forgive me right now. The only thing I'm asking for is a sign from the big guy in the sky telling me he has chosen her. Princess I love you always~ Alexia


Princess, 8/4/83-2/21/98

To the most devoted and loving friend any person could want. You were my best friend, my confidant, my buddy. I loved you in good health and sickness. I know you are in heaven with Grandpa, Melvin, Phillippe, Fanny, Maggie, Felix, Snuffy, BJ, Haweye, Loki, Bubba, Snuffy, the beloved pets of my family and my sisters. You are not in pain any longer precious, you are being cradled in God's loving hands.

Princess Penelope Pug of Beacon Hill 4 July 89 - 8 August 98

Truly a special "person," Penelope, or Penny as we always called her, was a member of our family in every respect except genetics. My wife and I bought her from a pet store when we learned we could have no children of our own, but she remained our "little girl" even after we proved the doctors wrong and had two daughters.

Penny was more like the girls "big sister" than a pet. She shared her favorite toys with them when they were babies, and ran to get us when they cried. She always knew when someone was having a bad day, and would snuggle up close just when you needed a friend.

Unfortunately, Penny could not go with us everywhere, so on a hot August Saturday afternoon, my wife and two daughters said goodbye to her and went to a restaurant for lunch. When we returned, Penny was gone. I found her lying in her favorite spot in the house, right next to her water bowl. She passed quietly, but alone. We feel so bad that we were not there with her for her last moments as she was always there for us.

I look forward to meeting her again when it is my turn to cross the Rainbow Bridge. I miss her so much, and although I know I will get over the feeling of loss in time, I know that I will never "get over" my little dog. She is a permanent part of me that I don't want to ever forget. I have placed a large portrait of her in a place of honor on the living room wall. When ever I think about finding her dead in the kitchen, which happens just about every time I enter that room, I go and look at her picture and remember her as she was in life.

Goodbye Penny. I love you and I miss you, little girl.

Your daddy,

Tim


Princess Penelope (Penny), 2/15/98

My Penny has been gone less than a week and my heart aches from the emptiness, but I will hold forever in my heart the sweet memories that she has left behind. I will be forever thankful for all the times she comforted me when I was sad, forgave me when I was short with her, greeted me at the door when I came home, and loved me unconditionally. I will miss her sighs of contentment, snorts of joy when we played and messy kisses of gratitude. She was the bright spot every day. Wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge my baby.

Barbara


Princess Tiffany, 04/27/90-26/10/96

To Tiffany: (before I knew about Rainbow Bridge)

Do dogs go to heaven, I want to believe
My angel Tiffany will always be with me
A beautiful blue spruce stands tall
In memory beside her grave
My heart aches with grief as I write
And unplanned tears still flow when
I stand by her tree
Will her spirit remain in my yard
Protecting the new young Tiffany this spring
Will this wonderful animal bless
This property even in her death
I long for the one thing that
Always made me fell complete
Do dogs go to heaven, I wanted to believe
My angel Tiffany will always be with us.

Carol Anne Hyatt


Priscilla, 10/10/98

You came into my life when I was grieving for another.  
Your gentleness and love helped my sorrow pass.  
I thank you for teaching me to quickly love again, my friend.  
Now you're gone too, but your softness and strength will always be remembered.  
May you be at peace, never again to feel the pain and loneliness of your last hours again.  
I'll miss you my fur-child, but I know that a soul such as yours will live on forever.

Priscilla (Prissy), 12/22/84-1/6/98

To my friend and companion, Prissy. You have been my dear and beautiful "gold eyed" friend for 13 years and I miss you so much. I will always remember you with you long beautiful blue and white fur and your huge gold eyes. We shared so many fond times together, my favorite was just sitting with you and scratching your head, right between your ears and hearing your soft purrs. You all most always slept near me in your little ball position and ran down the hallway to receive your breakfast in the mornings. We all love you and miss you and I'll be there to get you and take you on to heaven with me. I know that you have met Rebel Boy up there and I know that he was glad to see you. I'll see you when its time for me to go. I love you,
Mommy

Prissy, 10/07/98

Prissy...I can't begin to explain how I feel now that you are gone. You were not only my companion but best friend for 12 years. We went through lots of ups and downs together. I'm sorry I had to put you down. That was the hardest decision I have ever made but your quality of life was gone. Run free and pain free now. Oh how I will miss you. You will forever be in my heart till we meet again. Your best friend and mama, Kathy

Pryncesse, 03/15/84

Pryncesse was my Collie, the dog I'd dreamt about having since I was 5 years old. She was gentle and sweet, very loving and sensitive. She did have two weaknesses, though: an unquenchable need to steal food, and an intense need to chase bicycles. (Chasing things is natural for a herding breed, though.) She provided much joy; solace during my divorce and a long illness; laughter when my mom & I dressed her up to look like an old grandma. I still miss Pryncesse, even though two black Labs have taken over my heart. I take great comfort in the knowledge that someday I will see my dearly beloved mother, and Pryncesse, together at the Rainbow Bridge, waiting for me.....

Puffis, 02/17/98

It's almost two months since you left me darling, but I still miss you that much as I did the day you left me. My heart is broken, and it feels like it never will be complete again. I know that it won't be complete until I meet you again, because you have a piece of my heart.
It's one thing that hurts very much, and that is that I never got to say goodbye to you Puffis. I want to turn back the time so that I could just say goodbye to you, and just give you a hug, and wish you goodluck on your trip to the rainbow bridge. It would feels much better if I just had got to say goodbye....  
I don´t think that anyone could imagine how much I miss you.  
I wish that you are happy and that you are feeling well were ever you are.  
I´m not afraid to die anymore, because I know that you are there and waiting for me.  
Sweetheart, just always remember that nobody could take your place in my heart, ever.  
So my cute little friend, until we meet again , so that I could tell you, I want you to know that I love you of all my heart, now.... and forever.

Love/Camilla


Puffy/Cricket/Lucky, 13/10/18, 1/20/98 and 11/2/97

Puffy was a very special little girl always on the go. Passed on 1/20/98 due to diabetic complications.

Cricket was my 5 lb. bundle of joy who was always wanting to cuddle.

Lucky was an old time when I adopted him, he was taken to the groomer and never picked up.

Both Cricket and Lucky were somebody's throw aways, who happened to find their way into my heart. They both had medical problems and were loved until they both crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

All are missed with a heavy heart.

Pumpkin, 05/17/98

In memory of beloved Pumpkin, feline mascot and companion of all the children and staff of the Good Shepherd Catholic School, Perryville, Maryland. Pumpkin was killed when he was struck by a vehicle while returning to his room at the school from Sunday morning Mass at Good Shepherd Church. We love you very much, sweet Pumpkin, and will meet again someday at the Rainbow Bridge.


Pumpkin, 04/21/81-10/30/97

My Pumpkin, my angel boy, my darling baby boy.  
For nearly 17 years you walked by my side.  
I have few memories without you, it's been so long.  
And now, as I try to walk alone, I stumble, I fall.  
You were my everything, my angel boy.  
My companion for life.  
I miss you, and love you dearly.  
And not a day goes by that I don't need you, or think of you,  
Or wish I could just reach down, and pat you, hold you,  
And hug you close to my heart.  
I know you are comfortable now, though I ache.  
Be at peace now, and be with God.  
Rest, so soon we can run and play.  
Never forget how much I love you.  
Wait for me in heaven, I'll meet you soon.  
Walk forever by my side, my baby boy.  
My companion for life.

Punkin, 8/17/98

Punkin,
I knew the week before that you were saying goodbye. I'm glad we had the extra time. I will miss you so much. You were and will always be in my thoughts, just as you were always there for me in my darkest times. I know you were an angel in disguise. I am so glad that you are young and healthy again. I cherish the years and the times we had together. I know that you are better and that the tears are just for me because you are not here. The many things you taught me, I will pass along as I give the love that I learned from you to other cats in need of love. I am still amazed by the things you taught our other cat friends, and through them you will also live on. I truly believe in Timeheart, our special place and believe that all things that are loved live forever in our hearts. I will love you in my heart and remember, until that time that we will be together again. I know David is missing you also, because of you, he is the best furdaddy.  
You also gave him a deep love of cats.

We will see you again.

David and Susan

I cherish the years and times together. I know you are better and that I am only crying for myself because you are not here. The many things you have taught me, I will pass along as I give the love that I learned from you to other cats in need of love. I am still amazed by the things you taught our other cat friends, and through them you will also live on. I truly believe in Timeheart and believe that all things that are loved, live forever in your heart. I will look for you in my heart until that time that we meet again.

Love in Timeheart, Susan

I will miss you curled around my head in the mornings.

Puppy, 05/18/98

The best friend and most special dog anyone could ever have, the good fortune come into their lives. From yesterday 5-18-98 at 11:45a.m. Until the death of my husband and I a tear will be shed over the loss of our very, very special companion.

Pray that God will heal the immense pain we feel today.

Puppy, 04/06/98-04/12/98

Puppy was a cute puppy. He was only 6 days old and didn't really have a name. He was killed by my other dog Lucy.
She picked him up in her mouth and punctured his chest with her teeth. He was very cute

Emma Louise


Puppy, 07/27/78-02/13/87

My Dearest Puppy, you were my buddy as I was growing up in life.
A month after your death, I remember you coming into my dream.
You came to me as if you were saying goodbye to me and it was time for me to let you go.
You licked me on my face and gone back to heaven.
I then woke up with tears of happiness.

Laura Shubert

Pushkin, 10/27/97-08/22/98

Pushkin loved to lie on your heart, purring, with his front paws on your shoulder. He taught us to throw bottle caps and stick-on bows for him to fetch, and made great twisting leaps for his favorite feather toy, which he then carried around like a proud trophy. He loved to lie on the TV cable box; we nicknamed him Ra, Lord of the Cable Box. He slept under the covers by Jane's feet at night and spent days with his sister Fiona, who played with him and washed him. He was Scott's first cat. After his FIP diagnosis, we only had 10 days to tell him goodbye. The morning after he died, Jane found a red bow beside her chair.

Scott and Jane Davis


Puss, 4/27/98

Puss, you were a fighter and lived all nine lives to the fullest. After being diagnosed with liver disease, you fought for another 19 months to be part of our lives. We cherished each additional day we were with you. No one can ever replace you, Puss. The hunter, screamer, and lover in you was unique to Pucasa. We will miss you laying on the couch with us watching TV, and begging for food at the dinner table. We know Boots, Pumpkin, and Aften will show you the ropes at the Rainbow Bridge. Good hunting, Puss. We love you.

B and J


Puss-Puss, 06/96

She was hit by a car in June of 1996. I can only assume that she was chased by something into the street. She hated the street noise and had never gone into the street before. I got Puss-Puss when a friend of mine was moving and couldn't keep her. She was a very sweet longhaired Calico. She was a little skittish of other people, but she loved to be stroked while she ate.

My dear Pussycat,
Thank you for the 16 plus years you spent with me. You were my friend, my best friend, my constant companion, my shadow, my sweet little 'Miss Puss,' a great love. I loved you completely and am so honored that you chose me as your Mom. You sweet kitty, you will always be in my heart and in my soul. Please come back to me in another lifetime. I will always love you, Nancy


Pyewackett, 10/12/83-12/07/98

And when the day shall come that I leave this earth. your belief that I love and honor you will be strengthened and my soul will be watching over you for all eternity.

In Loving Memory of Pyewackett........

"She will live in my heart always
October 12, l983- December 7, l998"

God saw you getting tired.  
And a cure was not to be.  
So he put his arms around you  
And whispered, "Come to Me."  
With tearful eyes  
I watched you suffer,  
And saw you fall away.  
Although we could not  
bear to lose you.  
We could not ask you to stay.  
A golden heart stopped beating.  
Playful meows laid to rest. 
God broke our hearts to prove to us,  
That he only takes the best.

"Pywackit" Aug 96 to Oct 97
Pywackit was a beautiful friend that came into my life as quickly as he left it. I found the three little orphaned kittys, when they were a couple of weeks old. After several weeks of bottle feeding , They all had made it !Pywackit grew into a beautiful long haired black cat .We all lived happy together until one dreadful day in October. I never had the chance to say good bye and that I love you .I think of Pywackit often , and wish I had one more chance to feel that little tongue on my chin again....We all miss you baby. Your brother still looks for you and your sister wants to play hide and seek again. Your big dog hasn't loved another since you left us . Your crushed torn little body is in heaven now but I can feel your soul around me . Thank you Pywackit for the little time we had together as a family. We all love and miss you deeply. Mom
