In our hearts, the cherished memories live on... This site is created in loving memory of our beloved FancyBoy and JoJo.
"But we can know that nothing that is loved is ever lost, and no creature that has ever touched our hearts can really pass away, because some beauty lingers on in each memory of which they've been a part." ~ Ellen Brenneman, American Poet
Trying to cope with the heartache and frustration of a gravely ill cat, the following death of the beloved throws one into a headlong battle of depression, guilt and devastating grief. The days and weeks following the loss are most painful, because as most of us naturally do, the weary mind only pictures the final days of the pet's life. But as I've told so many, and then as so many told me when we lost our KC, RedBoy, Spook, Cuddles, Smut, and JacquiLee, the pet would want you to remember the good times, the happy days, the cherished memories we hold close to our hearts. And always ... always remember the promise of Rainbow Bridge.
This site is a tribute to those wonderful little cats and kittens we've loved and lost, but know we'll meet again. Until then, their cherished memories fill our hearts.
If you have lost a cat or kitten, I will be more than happy to add him/her to this site. Send me an email to (back out REMOVE before sending) with your tribute including date of birth (if unknown, date of adoption) and date of loss. If you have a photo, attach a copy of your cat in .jpg, .gif, .tif or .bmp format. If you don't have a scanned picture of your cat, let me know and I'll send you a postal address so that you may mail in your picture. Your treasured picture WILL BE returned to you within a couple of days of receipt. I extend to you my support and understanding of your loss, heartache, and grief.
