Pet Memorial
In Memory of Teddy
Adopted August 30, 2022 - December 21, 2024 | Edward Theodore Remus Meow Meow III
The day was August 30, 2022. On that day, I officially adopted a gorgeous Lilac Point Siamese cat named March. He soon let me know his personality, and his forever-name would be changed to Edward Theodore Remus Meow Meow III, commonly known as Teddy. Very quickly would I learn what an incredibly large heart he had, as I broke my ankle two weeks later. I think he could tell that his forever mama was in pain, other than the tears, and all he wanted to do was to be near me. Together we worked through his medical issues and found food that worked well for his digestive system. Unfortunately, that food made him gain weight – but it didn’t inhibit his love for play, cuddles, and jumping on the bed to snuggle with me. He didn’t get many treat binges because he had put on weight, but every now and then I would relent and he would be offered a little cheese tax, or some temptations treats when his brother Casper would have some. Teddy on catnip = free entertainment. The rolling around, the 'mratting', the pawing at nothing in the air.He was called to wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge on December 21, 2024. I wasn’t ready for it, nor were his feline or canine brothers. I am thankful that I woke up to check on him and was able to hold him and talk to him as he passed, and that his brothers were able to come be near him so they could understand what was happening. Every year I would decide who the ‘Christmas Pet’ was, based on who would lie down and snooze under the Christmas tree first. Teddy was named the Christmas cat this year, and he will be honoured with a special ornament to mark his place as the Christmas Cat. He was the sweetest most loving boy, and I treasured every moment I had with him.Teddy, I will miss you forever. It’s a lot more quiet without you, and that silence can hit like a lead balloon, especially in the morning when you would meow at me to wake up for breakfast. It will take a long time to mourn your passing. Though your time with me was short, just over two years, those were two fantastic years and I cherish the days with you. I love and miss you, Teddy. Run free at the Rainbow Bridge with your brothers and sisters who have gone before – pain and FIV free. Until we meet again, my boy.— Mummy
In Memory of Rambo
1993 - July 4, 2023
In loving memory of Rambo, the smartest and most lovable Quaker parrot.
His attitude and sassiness will never be forgotten. He has an extensive vocabulary and used his words in context to everyone’s amazement. He was a fighter who came through multiple surgeries. He taught his humans so much about life, love, and now loss. He passed away on July 4, 2023 from old age, but 30 years with him was still not enough time. The pain from never hearing his voice again is immense but he is now soaring the skies of heaven. Until we meet again my beloved Rambo, and I know we will at the Rainbow Bridge.
In Memory of Gizmo
2006 - September 16, 2023 | Nicknames
In loving memory of Gizmo, the most beautiful and faithful Flame Point Himalayan kitty.
With his most gentle and warm temperament he was loved beyond comprehension. He came into his human’s life at a most critical time and remained by her side for 17 years being her constant, her joy, her reason for getting up. He passed away on September 16th, 2023 from illnesses related to old age. There would have never been enough time with him but at lease he is no longer in pain and is chasing butterflies in heaven. You are missed every single minute of every day. Until we meet again my beloved Gizmo, and I know we will at the Rainbow Bridge.
In Memory of Martini
September 2021 - March 2024
Martini found his forever home with Stephanie in September 2021.
He loved to curl up and sleep on his blanket on the couch. He was a loving cat who sat at Stephanie's feet purring while she had her morning coffee every day. He passed away in March 2024. He will be in her heart forever.
