Henry

Monday, March 28th, 2011

We first saw Henry in 2003 roaming around our subdivision. He appeared to be about 3 years old and looked healthy. He had a cute face and was a white and gray tabby. From our observations as well as some of our neighbors, Henry had been living outside for a while, perhaps a year or [...]

Sunny

Your life started out as a rough one, living at a Garbage Yard looking for scraps of food. A Trashman started to feed you one day and your friendship began. Every time you saw his SUV come into the yard , you would start running towards it,knowing your tummy wasn’t going to be empty today. [...]

In Memory of Our “Little Puppy” Oreo Back in November of 1995, you were introduced to us by a neighbor looking for a home for an orphaned 1 month old puppy. Little did we know this was the beginning of 15 1/2 years of you being a cherished part of our family. We are all [...]

Kia came into our lives on Sunday, September 17, 2000, and left us Sunday, March 6, 2011. She was one of three kittens born in our home: two Tortoiseshell girls, and one black DLH male.

Shellie

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

Shellie was loved. We got her at 6 weeks of age and she lived 16 years and almost 2 months. She was blind, deaf and incontinent but was such a sweet companion to me. Her bed was right by my desk here in the office. Mornings are so hard because she I had our own [...]
