Lady Bridgette

Golden Retriever

1989 to 2001

Bridgette was the most loving of dogs. She loved to be with the family and was a wonderful mother to her puppies. She consoled me so much when my mother died. We would take our daily walks together during that sad time. She loved to be outdoors and was truly a "retriever", however, when she was "done", she would walk back to the truck to wait for my husband's return. I miss her terribly, but I feel I will see her again as she was a very special part of our family.

Nicholas was beautiful, loving and affectionate, and had a sweet disposition, right up to the moment he [passed].

Nikko Nicoletti

Dog - American Eskimo Spitz

1989-2003

Nikko was a very special dog - he brought us many good laughs and left us with fond memories. He taught me about unconditional love, friendship and loyalty. In his passing, I felt the most unimaginable pain and sorrow - a grief I had never before known. In the weeks after his death, I thought I would never recover, but even after 14 wonderful years, his spirit lifted my soul and helped me to heal, finding some semblance of peace. He will forever be in my heart. I love you, Nikko.

One Eyed Jack

Cat, Russian Blue

May 1998 - July 2009

Jack was adopted from the local animal control. He was going to be put down later in the day when I happened by his cage. He only had one eye with which he looked at me with such knowing. I was struck by his sweet nature. I spent my last 35 dollars to adopt him. We bonded instantly. He was gentle, loving and very affectionate. He was truly God's gift to me at a time when I really needed it. He died peacefully at the vets, I look for the day when I can be with him again. I miss him every day.

Whiskers

Calico Cat

05/02/90 to 10/28/08

Our sweet Whiskers was our pride and joy. She made us so happy, full of love in her heart. Always cuddled on me when she knew I didn't feel good. She was a very special gift from God. I miss her more than I can say. I haven't even been able to grieve for her. I need Whiskers soul* to be prayed for and to pray that she is with God.

[* Note from MCS: Job speaks of "the soul of every living thing" (Job 12:10), St. Thomas Aquinas says "animal is named from soul [Latin: anima]", Pope John Paul II says "animals possess a soul", and St. Augustine says, "For man consists of soul and body, but so do the beasts. There is no doubt that in the natural order the soul is superior to the body. But in the soul of man there is reason, which is not present in the beast."]
