In our hearts, the cherished memories live on... This site is created in loving memory of our beloved FancyBoy and JoJo.
"The Ancient Egyptians went into mourning for the loss of a cat and shaved their eyebrows. And why shouldn't the loss of a cat be as poignant and heartfelt as any loss? Small deaths are the saddest, sad as the death of monkeys." ~ William S. Burroughs
When we face the loss of a beloved one, our hearts grieve endlessly. We seek comfort from our family and other loved ones. They are oftentimes at a loss for words due to the knowledge they, too, will face the day when a loved one is no longer with them. Or perhaps, they know the anguish within their own hearts from a similar experience.
If nothing but our memories and pictures remain, I truly believe comfort can still come by remembering the good times and the love our now gone cats have given us.
This page is in memory of the cats of friends - friends who have suffered and are trying to continue their lives without the adored cat or cats in their lives. My dear Friends, they live on in our hearts and are patiently awaiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge.
AngelKitties
Pooter ~ Susan Kinney
Born May 20, 1980 Became an AngelKitty December 21, 1996
His REAL name is Po'okela No Ka Oi (pronounced po oh kay lah no ka oi ~ like in vey) meaning "the very best champion" (no ka oi is "the very best"). He really was...I still look for him and miss him every day!
Socrates aka Socks ~ Ben Ciolczynski
Born January 31, 1991 Became an AngelKitty March 4, 1996
Socrates was a Himalayan Red Point Male kitten. We deeply miss the pit pat of his soft paws and the echoes of his purr. We see his bouncing shadow everywhere and smile through our tears. We miss you, good buddy....
Kitty ~ Kay Churchwell
Born 1980 Became an AngelKitty May, 1996
Her full name was Kitty, not very original, but she liked it. She was born in 1980, I'm not sure of the exact date since she was a stray when she found me. She passed away in May of 1996.
Kitty was my best friend. She and I had some great conversations over the years. I miss her very much and always will.
My AngelKitty, I love you!
Snaggle ~ Harvey Weinreich
Born 1989 Became an AngelKitty 1995
Cats are a gift from God. The loss of Snaggle was devastating for me. I think he was a Mainecoon but I don`t really know because I found him at a construction site.
Snaggle, here is your memorial in cyber-space.
You are one of nature's greatest gifts. And now you are surely missed. But in my heart you will always exist.
Sara and Kacey, Dearly Beloved ~ Mary and Doug Kull
Sara ~ Born July, 1986 Became an AngelKitty May 5, 1995
Sara was adopted from our local animal shelter in 1986. She was probably about 5 weeks old (too young, really, to be separated from her mother), so we've estimated her date of birth around July 1986. We had to euthanize her on May 5, 1995, a loss I still feel very deeply and painfully when I look at her picture.
Simply put, I loved Sara with all my heart. She was so kind, sweet, loving. She was everything and more that a human could ask for in a companion. When we took that final ride to the vet's that May day, her wise eyes looked at me in full comprehension of this final act of kindness. Sara was dying. She knew it; I knew it. She crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge peacefully...like the true lady she was in life.
Well, Susie, the tears are rolling as I write this. I can't believe after all these years that I can still feel so vividly the loss of Sara in our lives. Will I ever have another like her? Only God knows. I doubt it, though. Sara and I had a special connection that will be hard to duplicate.
Kacey ~ Born August, 1986 Became an AngelKitty August, 1996
Kacey was adopted from our local animal shelter in August, 1986. She disappeared from our lives in August, 1996 without a trace. She was wearing her collar and tag, along with a special sensor that activated a pet doorbell at our front door. We tried for several months to locate her, putting up hundreds of flyers in the neighborhood. Not one person had spotted her. I fear that some evil befell her. I pray to God I'm wrong and that she chose to live somewhere else, but I doubt it. Not after ten years.
Kacey was a rebel in life. Sort of the square peg/round hole theory. We understood her, though, and it brought out the best in her, despite herself. We loved her and still, to this day, keep the batteries fresh in that pet doorbell, hoping it will ring to let us know our Kacey has come home.
