.....8ball loved to hide under the tree amongst the presents every Christmas.
I found 8ball in the woods by my work when he was just a couple of weeks old. Little did I know then that he would be my best friend for the next 14 years. He was always there to listen and keep me company when I needed a friend. His nickname was Number 7 because he looked like the number 7 image on the cat chart, a little chubby, but he lived a good life. He used to hide behind the plants on the patio and under the Christmas tree with the presents, and always brought a smile to our faces. He learned how to use the doggy door before the dogs did and could lay out in the backyard in the grass, gaze at the wildlife like a Lion in the jungle.
Unexpectedly we had to let him go in July of 2010, he was one of a kind. and he will not be forgotten. I miss him so much.
Goodbye 8ball.
Our sweet girl Annie came to us as a stray almost ten years ago. She was starving and almost dead from EGC and other health conditions, but after finally trusting me enough to let me pet her, she jumped in my arms, and she was a part of our family ever since. Annie didn't care too much for the other cats we had adopted, but she absolutely loved people and truly felt she WAS people - her favorite place was on the couch next to us, getting pets while we were watching tv or reading. She was always right in the middle of whatever family or social activity we were doing, and would come out to greet visitors like the lady of the house that she was. Until we see you again, we will miss you, Annie...RIP.

You were such a baby! You are greatly missed. You were so brave and fought hard during your illness. You crossed over the Rainbow Bridge and now Coco, Tara and Bridget will watch over you until I see you again. Your mom will always love you and never forget the joy you gave me during these 13.5 years.
In loving memory of our beautiful baby boy Bailey who left us after 14 amazing years together. Bailey was the most loving, sweet, handsome, and funny friend we have ever known, and we miss him dearly. He touched our lives in ways we never imagined and will forever remain in our hearts. We are grateful for the time we shared with him and will cherish those memories forever. Thank you Bailey for the unending love, loyalty and laughs you gave us and we pray that we made your life as wonderful as you did ours. We love you forever.

Bella was a rescue dog, with a lot of issues such as the name of Sophie, (which we changed to Bella ) Bella barely had any sight, dry eye, barely any hearing, constant ear problems, heartworms, skin problems and no one loved her, until she met me.
Bella wasn't the prettiest, but she was the smartest and most loving.
We had her from January 2007 to November 10, 2011. She loved being alive and never knew what it was like to be a healthy dog. It always seemed like if a medical problem could happen to a dog, it happened to her. For some reason she never seemed to catch a break in being healthy. Bella accepted all the bad medical issues that came her way and still managed to find some way to be happy, playful and loving.
She would meet me at the door every afternoon, tell me when it was time to go to bed by being curled up on my side of the bed, stayed close to my side when I was home, followed me everywhere I went in the house and she enjoyed having a popsicle we me. She really loved her popsicles!!
She knew I was all she had, and I knew it too, so I gave her as much love and attention as possible, no one loved her more than I did.
She was the best dog, the most loving, the smartest, and I miss her dearly.
Bella I hope you can find 8ball, Millie and Shuggie by the bridge.
I am glad you came into my life, into my heart, but now I miss you so much!
~In the morning of Feb 1, 2013 we had to say good-bye to you as you were too sick to continue a life here with us. We want you to know that we loved you very much since we found you back in June 2012. We miss you everyday, but we know you are very happy and illness free in kitty heaven. We want to thank you for bringing so much happiness into our family and for showing us pure unconditional love. We will never forget the silly little things you did, how you welcomed us home each afternoon after school/work, your companionship, and your kitty snuggles. We thank God for giving us the opportunity to have you with us even if it was just for a short time. Even though we are sad because we had to let you go you left us with such a sense of peace in our hearts and we now understand that we did the right thing for you. We will always remember you as you have left permanent paw prints on our hearts. -Mayra Cavazos
Thank you for being you! Thank you for filling our hearts with so much love, compassion, and joy.
We are so sorry that we could not make you better, because, truly, you made us better. We are so blessed to have been loved by you, and being your parents has been such an honor!
We will forever miss you, but I know a piece of your spirit now resides in our hearts. We are so happy that you are healthy and happy in puppy paradise. I know we will both see you again one day, but until then, we will meet you in our dreams.
We love you so much! You will always be our little man and our sweet, baby boy❤️.
Caldwell Klintworth (2001-2010) was born in Caldwell, Texas, and came to live with us when he was six weeks old. He was our precious puppy/baby and was loved from day one. Caldwell liked to play ball and play in the water. He tried many times to drink from the water hose. Perhaps he was spoiled because he had his own kiddy swimming pool. If you mentioned the word leash he was ready for his daily walk. Caldwell met you at the door when you came home and was happy to see you and waited for his bone/treat. In 2009, he was diagnosed with Cushing's disease, which is treatable. But then in February 2010, he developed other health problems. Our favorite Vets and their staff took such good care of him during this time. But then on February 11, 2010, we had to say goodbye to him. We miss our baby and will always love him. He was precious and an adorable dog.
