This memorial is for all the animals that I have had in 20 years that have passed onto the next life.

My horses, Sky, Toby and Tomas, the 3 big men that brought me laughter and friendship.

My Guinea Pigs, Bilbow and Baggins, Bilbow and Pippin and Emma and Charlotte who brought happiness to the whole family for being such wonderful comediens.

My Hamsters, Pipsqueak, Dragio, Cara, Hammy, Meena, Gussy and Teddy, the convicts that loved nothing better then keeping me awake at night.

My first pet Twinkle the cat, a stray that adopted my parents and came to live with us for the next 10 years.A wise old cat that knew to keep away from the hands of young children and starved herself before christmas when the Turkey arrived so that she would fool us into giving her lots of Turkey scraps.

My first dog Harry the yellow labrador with chocolate eyes and a pink freckly nose.2 years we have been without you Harold but you gave us 14 years of unconditional love, although I suspect most of that was a trick to get us to give you titbits for being such a lovely boy.

Then there is my rats.My first Corbin Dallas followed by Falkor, Merlin, Bodhi, Utah, Soloman, Gandalf, Zeke and Carra. You all were individuals with the most unique forms of friendship and love. You all trusted me and cared for me and amazed me in such ways I can never forget the way you each touched my heart.

And of course not forgetting my Chinchillas, My little Dax, Storm Cloud and Kahn.What wonderful little fluff balls you each were. I am so sorry that each of you had such horrible lives before I rescued you all I can hope is that the short time that you each were with me was a happy time.

Thankyou to each and everyone of these animals that touched my heart and soul and changed my life.You are gone from this world but are never forgotton. Each of you live on in my heart and my dreams and I can only hope that when the day comes for me to pass on that I will then meet you all again.

You walked by my window sometimes. You looked so tired when I first saw you. Over about 2 years I watched. I tried to lure you closer to my heart with promises of warm bedding and treats. but you had been through so much abuse as a kitten and seen so much hate in your little life, that you were terrified of the thought of human hands. I left you food and I promise I would have gotten you spayed if you had only let me touch you. I would have told you everything will be alright. Stroked your fur as you purred gently in my lap. I was so proud the day I saw you with you first litter. Although I worried daily (that's why I put out the food) about were you guys would get your next meal; if you could make enough milk to feed them. You were a great Momma cat. You raised those babies into young adults. I did not see you for a while and worried, but hope stayed in my heart when I would see that the food I left out was gone in the morning. But when I got up early this morning and hopped in my truck to go to work, my heart sunk into a pain so strong that I felt I could not catch my breath. I watched you weather the freezing rain and stiffling heat of the seasons. You above any creature never deserved to be treated that way. But I know you are at peace now. Your kittens are grown now. One adopted me. I call him "Fred".

In loving memory of Tobin... Some children believe that they are devils that play amongst angels, infact it is the reverse. We will all miss you... You were a good friend...

A great dog, and definitely a best friend. I miss ya buddy!!

You were a strange cat. You could sleep anywhere and in any position. You cared little for form or convention. You liked to ride in the car on the passenger seat with your head out the window like a dog. When confronted by dogs, unimpressed you would hold your ground with complete disinterest. Your favourite food was pumpkin, which you liked more than even chicken. You insisted on coming with us when we walked the dog, but you were slow and would fall behind meowing till we carried you. (I have to confess here -we often snuck out quietly without your noticing.) You loved to travel and would get in any car going anywhere (who could forget the policeman who after visiting our farm called back less than an hour later saying "I think I've stolen your ginger cat."). Your presence on the local radio missing pets report was common - your escapades legendary. (The butcher and the people from the nursing home have nothing but good things to say about you.) You have slept in the finest shop windows our little town had to offer. It was your love for and resulting complacency around cars that was to hasten your demise - there are only so many times cars can be expected to slow and swerve around a cat sleeping in the middle of the road even on our quiet street. It was your outrageous nonchalance that killed you in the end my stripey ginger friend. The privilege was - of course - all ours.

He was father to a long line of Eskimo Spitz,and such a funny dog ,but he seemed to love me dearly,and although he is gone I love him still.

Sorry to have let you down in your last hour. Please forgive me. Rest in peace. We all love and miss you. You big old bear. Mum and Dad and gang X

Toby, Our beautiful striped tiger cat. We will love and miss you forever. You were the best cat ever. the day you left us we were with you until the end. We hated to see you go so much, but at almost 19 years old we knew you were ready. You brought so much joy into our lives. We love you . Kathy and Dick

You were there whenever I needed you, through all the bad times, when no one else cared. You'll always be my puppy. I love you forever baby.

I miss you Toby. Thanks for being my bestfriend. I'm sorry I had to make the decison to let you go. I knew that you were no longer happy. You'll be in my heart forever.

Tboy was a little white front amazon parrot who stole my heart back in January 2001. He had a disability and had been in the pet store for some time as no one had wanted him. We fell in love with each other needless to say and although the last few months was a short meeting it was one filled with much joy and happiness. As Toby got more used to us his character and cheeky ways shone through. He loved life in his own way and his disability didn't hamper him much. Sadly Toby was taken fromm us suddenly Saturday 16th June 2001. He is so greatly missed and a gap is left in our hearts from where he has gone. We remember the fun and joy we had together now and the special place he holds with us, one that can never be replaced.

Love you Toby

Mum & Dad, Stuart and the flock

You will never realise Toby how difficult it has been since we had to have you put to sleep. We think of you everyday and miss all the happy times we had together, we know you are safe now and looking down on us. Be brave for us and one day we will all meet up again.

Love Mum, Dad & Emma

Toby Eason

Remembering Toby our Jack Russell, a beloved family pet for almost 16 years.
Sadly put to sleep on 5th January 2005.

The routine has suddenly changed after all these years, no waiting in the kitchen for the scraps after tea, or letting you out in the morning for your first daily wee.
The warmth of your cuddles around our feet and having a lay in with Dad at
weekend in the bed
You were the perfect model for my photo sessions and have left many happy memories

We all miss you Toby, so until we meet again lots of love from your family

David, Alison, Katie & Gemma

Toby was chosen from his litter at the age of 3 weeks; Anna had his toenails painted green so that he would be distinguishable from his littermates; she chose him because he peed on her. He came us to in January of 1997 and immediately won our hearts, managing at the same time to endear himself to Fudgie, our elderly cat. Toby was a darling, truly a "good boy" in every sense: he loved us unconditionally and whether any one of us was gone for 3 minutes, 3 hours, 3 days or a year, his joy at our return was always the same. He was ebullient, playful, silly, sweet, disobedient sometimes but always with a charming lopsided grin. Sadly, he was plagued in his middle-age with health problems and eventually we had to let him go. Hopefully, he is now in a better place where he no longer itches, smells lovely and the bitches adore him. Toby, we miss you beyond words but are grateful for the time you spent with us. We are all the better for it.

toby my adorable yorkshire terrier how we miss you jumping all over us you left us at a tender age of 5 we were so sad i cried for weeks and when i see you photo it brings a lump to my throat toby i live you so much tara sends her love to you lots of love mummy and daddy

My beloved 3 year old cat Toby was run over and died. He probably died instantly due to an internal injury. Toby was my best friend not to mention he was the only friend I had. Now I am lost without him. I miss you Toby buddy. We went everywhere together. Toby I want to say one thing. Oh Toby why oh why have you left me here? I can't go on without you. Why oh why have you called my cats name so soon God? I was at the vets when I heard you call his name.
Danielle.

My beautiful Toby was my best friend. Always by my side in life and cremated by my side in death. You still stay close to where you slept each night. Congenital heart ailment and kidney failure took you too early. We endured 13 years of medicines and treatment to prolong your life. It was worth it to have those happy years together. I am hoping that the Lord will keep you safe, so one day you can look up at me with those big eyes and jump on my lap again.
Love you Tobe's, you are still mama's boy.

Beloved Toby, thanks for the love you showed and for providing Mo with another love in her life.

You will always be remembered with love.

Dad

Toby I will always have fond memories of you. You were a big and beautiful boy. I will remember your loving cat cuddles, all of the cat talks we have had, and the games you liked to play. You had a happy long life. R.I.P. Denise

Toby - West Highland White Terrier. Put to sleep due to a brain tumour.
I will never forget yor beautiful big brown eyes(especially when you stared at me to make me follow you to where your treats were kept!) and your beautiful glossy white coat. I miss stroking your lovely soft silky velvet ears.
I loved the special bond between us, the way you used to communicate to me what you wanted.
I think of you each day, I long for you to greet me. I long for you to nudge me or jump on my lap for a cuddle and to have your belly tickled!
You loved going for walks. I long to rattle your lead and say "walkies" and you to come running so excited!
You loved life and lived it to the full.
Our gorgeous Toby - cute, clever, fun, brave and loving.
I miss you. You will always be with me.
Love you always
From your special friend
Eugenia and all your family and friends xxxxxx

The little black mustache so that we called him "David Niven". The smile that was always there so that we called him "Smiley Dog". The times he would steal the napkins off our laps. The way he would take a sock while I was folding laundry so that we would chase him. The way he would wait by the back door for us to come home. How he would always know when it was 4:30 and come find me to feed him. The way he would lie on my husband's stomach so he could scratch his back before going to bed. How he would wait for me to put my robe on the floor so he could scratch it into the right shape. How he was always happy to go anywhere, even the vets. These are the thimgs I will always remember about Toby, the best "Smiley Dog" there ever was.

Toby you were our gaurdian in life and we know you continue to watch over us afterward. As Chris's best friend you never repeated a word he confided to you. You loved all unconditionally. Even those afraid of your size grew to love you quickly as you slobbered over all. You are missed by many. Time for us was short it would be easy to feel cheated, but what you gave us was a lifetime of love. You gave your breed (Rotty) a noble name. God came to you as you slept unexpectedly. This was hard for us. We cry today for our loss. You are our gaurdian angel now just as you were before. Since, Grannie has joined you and we know you were waiting for her and those chocolate kisses she used to sneak to you and Clemmy...now the three of you no longer have to "sneak". We will all be together someday in that we take comfort. Your boy....Chris, Tricia, and Mom

Toby, you were only here for a short time and the space you've left in my heart can never be filled. The love, joy and laughter you gave to me while you were here will always be a part of me. I will miss you always but I know you're on the Bridge now dancing with all the other furkids who have gone ahead. Take care buddy.

Toffee was a sweet animal. He had a positive attitude towards strangers and put up with 2 other dogs and another Cat. Despite the fact that Toffee Had caterax and was surely going blind, he could still jump to my window sill to look out on the world. He enjoyed Doggy food more than cat food And his favorite places to sleep were at my head and at my feet. he was my companion, my gaurdien angel in disguise. he was there through the worst times and always through the best. we shared birthdays and christmases together as well as my eighth grade graduation. I wanted him to go to college with me and to be there to greet my husband. The best memory that stands out in my head is when he "beat up" my neighbors' horrible dog by biting the dog's nose. He knew how to come by a special whistle, and to call from the door to go out. I loved my cat toffee and I always will. It was the most painful thing in the world to watch him die because he didn't even know he was going to die. the last memory I'll ever have of my cat, is him dying in a strangers arms, not my own. I just wish we didn't have to put him down because he wasn't even sick, he was just an old loving cat and I had to have him killed. I am so sad that he's dead I love my Toffee so much.

Tog (also known as "Beat Two") died on the first day of October, 2001. She caught a cold that turned into pneumonia, which then affected her heart (probably).

She was a very spirited yet friendly chinchilla and I still miss her a lot and think of her all the time. An amusing and entertaining companion, that's for sure.

Beast One (also known as "Joe") is still around but is so much of a spinster, she won't have anything to do with any other chinchilla.

Tojo was my first ever dog and constant companion for 14 years. She loved unconditionally and was always there for me. We had so much fun together, I miss her every day. I know you are frolicking with lots of mates at the rainbow bridge. You will never be forgotten.

we loved you. rosa and carlos, your loving owners

tom I remember when I first heard you meowing.I thought I would never find a cat to replace yellow tom.You came along and were only here for an instant.I really miss you.

Dear Tommy, rest in peace in the Big Cat Heaven, dream about Africa and about Gonzo and about us. You were my friend and my joy and my pet- all in one.I miss you so much - I have not yet met a Cat to take your place. Dear, dear Tommy,we were together in the best years of my life. How I wish to see you again -- sleeping, or playing, or talking to us, or walking with us... if only I could go back in time...

Lieve Tom,

Je bent niet meer, zal je zeker missen, wat ze me nooit kunnen afnemen is, de herinnering, lieve trouwe Tom, dank voor de vele fijne jaren !!!!!

Wouter

Tom and Sam. Tom was a beautiful little,fat Terrier x.We got him from the pound. He loved us so much and we loved him. He had the amazing ability to find food where ever he went. Everybody loved Tom. He made people laugh. Sometimes he would'nt get out of the car and we used to bribe him with promises of whatever he fancied. His best friend was Sam. He was a Shepard/Collie x. He was as large as a river barge and just beautiful.Tom and Sam could demolish a piece of outdoor furniture in record time. Some of their bad habits have been passed on to our other dogs. Sam would be proud of that. I really miss my Timmytom and Bigsy. I hope they are together again.

Rest In Peace

Tom was my cat. I loved him very much even if noone else did. He was my best friend. I miss him very much...

cant wait to pet you tom

My precious Tommy....the most loving, affectionate cat in the world. He loved people. Whenever anyone visited, he insisted on sitting in their lap and being petted. He wasn't afraid of any dog (well, except that Rottweiler one time!). He was by my side through the good times and the bad. I have cried in my bed many nights with Tommy right by my side while I poured my heart out. He never failed me. I finally couldn't stand to watch him going downhill any longer when his kidneys were failing. With a heavy heart and many tears, I held him while the doctor gave him that final injection. I will never, ever forget you my Angel Kitty.
Much love from your Mommy

I miss you my friend... If it should be that I grow weak, And pain should keep me from my sleep, Then you must do what must to be done, For this last battle can not be won. You will be sad, I understand, Don't let your grief stay in your head, For this day more than all the rest, Your love for me must stand the test. We've had so many years, What is to come may hold no fears, You do not want me to suffer so, The time has come please let me go. Take me where my need they'll tend, And please stay with me till the end, I know in time you will see, The kindness that you did for me, Although my tail it's last has waved, From pain and suffering I've been saved. Please do not grieve, it must be you, Who had this painful thing to do, We've been so close,we two, these years, Don't let your heart hold back the tears.

To my loving friend and protector in the doggie kennel in the sky from your best friend- Glen-Marie and family, Bob, Andrew, and Jane your spirit is always with us.

Some people would say that Tooks was JUST a guinea pig...but he was something special to us. He made us laugh at his antics...He died today. He was old for a guinea pig...Almost6 years old...We will miss the old man.....Goodbye Tookendoodle. Cathy & Randy Myers

Tootsie we had you for nearly 16 years, you were the most loving little lady that anyone could have had. We loved you with all our heart and still do, you may be away but will never be forgotten, in our hearts forever, your family,Denise, Russell, Kayleigh and Jordan, XXX with love always.

Our beautiful red Electra Parrot left us on Valentines Day, 2007. Our little "Wire Eater" died after surgery to remove a huge egg. We will miss her squacks and naughty behavior.

My little Tornado was a bad little dog. He always weasled his way out of the backyard some how. He had a turned out little leg and a snaggle tooth. He was my little buddy. I'd give him a bath, blow dry him and paint his nails. He was hot. He was attacked by a pit bull that tore his jaw up. I had to put him down. I loved my little Nado. I know he will be waiting for me. See you then little pimp doggy.

To a perfect puppy, that was more of a human than most people are. She was totally devoted to me and I shall miss her forever. I can hardly wait to see her on the other side of Rainbow Bridge. My Torrieluv was the best.

O nosso Toto era um grande amigo e gostava de latir na janela do Sergio. O Serginho adorava isto, tanto que costumava dar tiros (para o alto) de tanto que ele adorava!!!!. O nosso Toto morreu de mordida de cobra ou enfarte, não sabemos ao certo. Foi enterrado com todas as glorias do Sitio Rancho Alegre. Campinas Sao Paulo BR

my dear totoro, my loving, wonderful cat. It has been three years since you died, and I still love you so. That sad day that you died I thought about all the wonderful times we'd had, for i'd had you since my very first birthday. every day I look loveingly at your picture, only to await the time when we will be together again, across the rainbow bridge.
love,
Emily
