The Honoured Pet List

[rescuecatsrule]

If you have lost any pet put their name/s below so we all remember them. Post what they were and their colouring (and breed if known)

Smudge was a semi longhaired tortoiseshell queen cat with a white ball on the end of her tail. I'm not sure exactly what her breed was as I wasn't old enough to know her breed when we had her.

Chester and Boots These were two cats I had as a child. One was gray and the other was black and white. They were both indoor/outdoor cats and neither cat lived long enough to reach their first birthday.

Scamp He was a small black and white mixed breed dog that I grew up with. He died of a massive stroke at age 14 1/2.

Rusty Orange mixed breed cat I had as an adult.

Kitty Dark gray Siamese/tortie cross that I had as an adult.

Midnight This is my most recent loss. Midnight was an all black Siamese-cross who went to the Rainbow Bridge 6 years ago. She was rescued from a no-kill shelter and was a companion to my current cat Snowball for 10 years. Unfortunately, it became necessary to put her to sleep at age 14 due to a serious and painful condition.

Spike - He was my protector and teacher when I was young. It's been 15 years since he died, but I still miss him.Spike was a DSH tabby and white, although his tabby areas were almost black.

Cleo - She had been abused as a kitten, tossed around from owner to owner, until finally she was about to be put down when her previous guardian stepped forward to take her. From then on she knew only love and contentment, and that was for at least eight years. So when her guardian had to move away, I took her for the winter. By then Cleo had been pining, and going downhill very fast. In may of 2005 we decided it would be best to put her to sleep. I miss my little girl. She was white with black spots.

Tucson - What can I say about my dear one? He was my heart and soul, my very existence, the love of my life. He was a shelter cat, eight years old. The next day he would be PTS if he wasn't adopted. But we spent eight more years together. He passed away two years ago in September from FIV complications. He was a black and white DSH, with a black mask and cape.

Ziggy- Black and white longhair with a distinctive white dot on his forehead and a white circle on his chin. He passed away at around 15 years old. He had a mass in his neck that made it hard for him to breath. He was a beautiful cat.

Scooter- Was born 6 months before me, and lived until he was around 18 years old. He loved us so much and always wanted to be sitting on someones lap. He slept with me most nights too.

Dog
Romeo- Pekeingnese, fawn with a black mask. He had horrible allergies and we tried to make him as comfortable as possible for all his days.

 

[booktigger]

These are just the ones I have personally owned, not including family pets (all bar Tigger adopted as oldies).

Charlie - my first cat, she was a 14 yo pure white female who I only had for 9 weeks, she started fitting and the vet couldnt do anything for her.

Tigger - my lovely 5 yo tabby (the only cat under the age of 10 I have adopted), she had to be pts due to FIP.

George - the only foster I have lost so far, the vet wouldnt guess his age, just that he was very old. He died from liver problems.

Snowy - another 14yo pure white female, she was my little snugglebunny, and had to be pts due to cholangiohepatitis.

Blackie - a 14yo pure black female, I only had her for 8 weeks, she sadly had to be pts due to mammary cancer, as her original owner had never bothered to spay her.

Ginger - my very special boy, sadly died presumably of natural causes at the age of 15 - you can guess his colour by his name.

Pebbles - my black and white 11yo - broke my own rules to adopt her, I dont normally adopt cats under the age of 12, sadly she never saw her 12th birthday. WE dont know what caused her final illness, the vet suspected a small tumour though.
