08-11-2007 10:05 PM -- By: Alexandra,    Critters.com memorial:   Sophie Memorial
Sophie was taken from us suddenly 4 days ago. The pain is still so real. I cant stand being in what seems an empty house now however, cant stand being away from it either. It is so sore to, for an instant feel like she is here, forgetting she isnt anymore. Even day to day activities seem so insignificant and unworthy.

What has helped is creating a memorial for my princess, reading the lovely, kind guestbook comments and realising i am not alone. Most importanly that my Sophie isnt alone either as she has lovely friends to play with in the green grass of heaven while she waits to cross Rainbow Bridge.

God bless you my beautiful little girl XXXXX

It's 2 weeks today that I lost you Holly. Everyone keeps saying that time will make it easier. I don't think my heart is listening. So many friends and family have come and gone. But, you my sweet Holly were always there for me. Now I'm so lost! I just can't stop crying. I love you pretty girl!

Thank you to everyone that has signed SocialDogHolly.critters.com page.

08-09-2007 7:12 PM -- By: Lori,    Critters.com memorial:   Jet Memorial
Jet passed away yesterday morning - suddenly. I can't seem to stop crying and it is very comforting to know I am not crazy for being this heartbroken. This website is truly a blessing and even though I am sobbing as I write this I know it will help me. I am sorry for everyone on this site as they too are heartbroken and missing their beloved friends, but also thankful for you all for your kind and healing words. Having a place to come & brag about how special and wonderful these animals were and how lucky we were to have them in our lives, however short a time it was, is certainly good therapy for us all. Thank you critters.com!

Killer, today is one month that we have not had you with us. Our life has changed so much. We love & miss you so much. Please know that Daddy & I send you so many hugs and kisses & lots of rub rubs. We talk about you everyday and think of all the beautiful memories that you left us. Please know that I pray everyday for you and hope that you are at peace which I know you are. Oh, I got your picture(tatoo) of you on my left arm. I will forever have you w/me close to heart. Our home is so quite without you but now its our house but never the home that it was. So today I want you to know that its hard for me & your Daddy but we know your ok and pain free. We are the ones with the pain because we don't have you with us but I know that you will be waiting for us when God calls us home. LOVE YA PRECIOUS BOY AND SENDING LOTS & LOTS OF KISSES,HUGS AND RUB RUBS AGAIN.!!!GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!

08-07-2007 2:47 PM -- By: Jenn,    Critters.com memorial:   Cutie Memorial
I lost my Cutie a few days ago. We brought her ashes home yesterday. The pain is just unbearable. The house feels so empty without her - I dont even want to stay there. My sweet, we still cant believe you're gone. Daddy started crying after he finished his ice cream b/c you werent there to lick the bowl. 12 years just wasnt enough... we love you always. xoxo

08-06-2007 4:57 PM -- By: Mattie Jones,    Critters.com memorial:   Riley Memorial
One month ago today, my Riley went to heaven. I can't believe time passed so quickly. I still break down when I think him, and, as AunteeMz said, I should be thinking about the good times. I can't seem to get past thinking of him not being at the house when I get home. It's really bad when you can't go home and find peace. I hope the day comes when I can think of him and remember only the good times and the love he brought into my life.

08-06-2007 1:17 PM -- By: Cindy,    Pet's name:   Daisy
It's been a month since Daisy left me. I got a new puppy 2 weeks ago. It does help; but he is not Daisy. But, I love him just as much; but in a different way. My heart really goes out to people who have lost their furry friends....its one of the most difficult things I have ever had to endure.

08-06-2007 1:36 AM -- By: Shelly,    Critters.com memorial:   Comet Memorial
I went ahead and made Comet a page. Please visit and find out all about him. He was quite a character and this site helps me remember him with a smile as well as some (ok, a lot of)tears.

08-05-2007 8:50 PM -- By: Shelly,    Pet's name:   
I am so happy that a site like this exists to help us remember our loved ones. An on-line friend told me about it (her dog is Tabitha). I can't stop visiting, even though I cry every time I read about another fur-baby dying. I think it's made me appreciate my animals more. I have six inside cats including 4 that were bottle-fed (from different litters), and a 13 year old who belonged to my dad before he died. I also have an eight year old Chow who's just been diagnosed with arthritis. I can't even imagine the pain I will feel when any of them die. Visiting this site reminds me that they are only here a short time and I need to make the most of it. Thank you critters.com for this wonderful place. Please be on the look-out for Comet's page. I had to have him put to sleep 10 years ago this month. He was 50 lbs of fur and love. I plan to make a page for him later this month.

08-05-2007 8:28 PM -- By: Bev B.,    Critters.com memorial:   Klaus Memorial
It's going on a month since my Klaus passed on. We went away this weekend as a way to help us move on. I thought it would be hard going on a trip having only Monie with us this time, but it turned out to be a nice getaway. Then we got home and I literally broke down when I saw Klaus' ashes. I've never experienced the pain of losing a pet before as Klaus was the first pet I've owned. 13-1/2 years just wasn't enough time to spend with someone that special. At least I have his website to bring me some smiles as he was a pretty hilarious character to live with.

May God grant us all peace during the sad times...

08-05-2007 4:03 PM -- By: Tracie,    Critters.com memorial:   Lil Joe Memorial
Cindy and AunteeMz, I have to agree about the pain, I do know that it gets to be less sharper, I think its more the loniless of missing them so much and not being able to hold and kiss them right know, because they were always there when you needed them. I know I still have bad days and I have to try to block out that final day, because it hurts so much and I think it will all take us a long time because these are our babies and not just a animal to us. But I can honestly say that I can think about the wonderful memories of my beautiful boy and smile, I know he is watching me and lives on with in my heart. So to all of you that have just lost one of your babies, I was there when I thought I would never stop crying, It will get easier, it takes time,we are all different and don't ever let anyone make you feel like you shouldn't have these kind of emotions, they have never been blessed to have ever shared the true bond of friendship and love that we have had with our babies, so hang in there and take it day by day. Bless all of you.

08-03-2007 10:54 PM -- By: AunteeMz,    Critters.com memorial:   Cinderella and ToTo Memorial
Cindy, I too wonder if the pain goes away. It's been a month now and I find myself at the darndest times having to take a few moments to compose myself. Where do all these tears come from!!???

I keep focusing on their death and not all the good times we had. I so much want to change the tapes playing in my head. Thanks to all that have stopped by -many of you are here. You provide support and comfort. Keep on keeping on.

Heather, I visited Infinity's website. What a beautiful girl! I'm sorry for your loss.

08-01-2007 12:10 AM -- By: Heather,    Critters.com memorial:   Infinity Memorial
I just lost my kitty today. She died before our eyes, suddenly - we've had her for 13 years. :(


07-31-2007 10:39 PM -- By: Mattie Jones,    Critters.com memorial:   Riley Memorial
Cindy, I don't know if the hurt ever goes away. I lost my Riley July 6 and the pain seems to take over some days. He was our baby, also, before I had my son 2 years ago. He never knew he wasn't human. He ate in the kitchen, bathed in the bathtub, and slept in our bed. I do try to remember the good times he gave us as well as all the joy and love he brought into our lives. I still feel as though he should be walking through the house looking for me. This site has been a tremendous help for me. I love looking at Riley's guestbook and reading all the wonderful and comforting things people have written. God be with you through this time.

07-31-2007 10:59 AM -- By: Denise,    Critters.com memorial:   Pretty Kitty Memorial
I miss Pretty so much. My Husband and I both cried to gether last when as we were adding the only two pictures we had of him to his memorial. It was the first time my husband cried for Pretty that I know of and i know it did him good.

07-30-2007 3:19 PM -- By: Cindy,    Critters.com memorial:   Daisy Memorial
I really miss my Daisy. I don't have a picture of her here yet; but she passed away on July 3,2007. I only had her 3 short years. She was a black and tan beagle mix. I don't have children and loved her like my baby. My heart goes out to everyone who has lost a pet. Does the hurt ever go away?

07-30-2007 3:24 AM -- By: Jamie Flowers,    Critters.com memorial:   Austin Memorial
We just had to put my parent's dog to sleep. My sister and I chose to actually be the ones to take him to the vet. We knew it would be too difficult for them. They were so greatful and so am I that I found this website. We are planning a memorial for Austin once we receive the earn. I came upon this site while looking for info. I found this to truly be easier. I feel so much better about his death after I searched for his photos and wrote about him. I also e-mailed to notify friends and family. I chose to make the payment in order to keep this memorial open for our family for always. It was so simple to use. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!!!!

07-29-2007 9:38 PM -- By: Shirley Moats,    Pet's name:   Hershey
Hello, Our Hershey does not have a picture posted, so he is easy to miss. Stop by to read his story, and make a little girl feel better.Best wishes to all.

07-28-2007 12:32 AM -- By: Kim,    Critters.com memorial:   Cezar Memorial
I wanted to add an additional link for my other baby's memorial Cezar. He was a wonderful boy who deserves to be remembered. Thank You

07-27-2007 11:57 PM -- By: Kim,    Critters.com memorial:   Rusty Memorial
I come to this website often to visit my babies Rusty and Cezar who I lost 3 weeks apart. It was the most difficult month of my life. The anniversary of there deaths is coming up in just a few short weeks. It is so hard to believe that they have been gone almost a year. I thank God for this website, that I can share my babies lives with the world. I have received such wonderful, caring comments. Its great to have a place that I can come to anytime to visit my babies, as well as let the world know special they were in my life. Thank You.

07-27-2007 7:00 PM -- By: Richard Cothran,    Critters.com memorial:   Dollie Memorial
I just wanted to write and extend a heartfelt "thank you" to each and every one here at Critters. My little gurl Dollie left me for heaven five weeks ago today. I've experienced many losses in my life but none that has Ever created a void such as that has been caused by Her passing. A large part of me ceased to exist with Her leaving. The genuine and sincere comments that have been posted in Her guestbook has helped to ease the pain. I just want you all to know how very, very much I appreciate them. Dollie was a kind, loving and considerate little soul and I believe that I can speak for Her in saying that She does too. I know that sometimes people will tell you, and with good intentions, that their thoughts and prayers are with you and then somewhere down the line, it's forgotten. I've done it myself. I just want every mommy, daddy, brother, sister, friend, and acquaintance of All of our beloved friends here at Critters to know that I just prayed that His grace will comfort and soothe our souls as only He can. I ask the you do the same for me. Please. You know, as I was growing up, I thought, at times, that my heart had been broken. Now I know that I was wrong. It is now. I love you all in Jesus Christ, Richard Cothran
