Anvil

Madge
Born, July 1991
Deceased, April 2006

We met ten years ago when I moved into my new house in Toronto. A year later, you adopted me and for the next nine years you were a good friend, loyal companion, and boss of the house. I miss you meeting me at the door on my arrival home from work, chatting away in your beautiful voice about your day, and sitting in the garden together on warm summer days. You will never be forgotten.

Nina
Born, March 27, 2005
Deceased, Dec 11, 2005

Nina, you were so little and delicate, but your mind and your will were.
so strong.

I will always remember your small head with oriental features, your quiet demeanor almost belonging to another world, your soundless meowing that penetrated deeply into my heart, your sweet and acute eyes that spoke volume. So little, yet so strong: together we fought for your life , your determination supported my determination, but in the end we both lost the battle.

Your short life left an indelible mark and a painful emptiness. We are consoled only by the thought that you were much loved by all of us and you died peacefully amongst friends. We and the other kitties are missing you. Melanie especially cared for you and Sunny fell sick when you died. May your sleep be restful and peaceful until we will meet again. May all our love, dear Nina, ,be with you in the afterlife.

~ Mom Claudia, kitties: Sunny, Melanie, Jasmine and siblings

Anvil

October 31st, 2005

No one told me the way I should feel
You left an aching heart
Lost and lonely the feeling goes on
You were the one friend I had
You gave me so much love
Now the tears remind me you're gone
It still haunts me
There's a silence where you used to be
It still haunts me
Just an empty space in history
It still haunts me
But life must go on; on and on and on

Dear Anvil, A gentler cat I never knew. My eyes miss seeing you, my
hands miss touching you, and although Almighty God took you back to Him
much too soon, rather than mourn your death, I will celebrate your life,
and thank Almighty God for the three and a half years that I was blessed
with your presence. I look forward to the day, my dear friend, when we
will once again be reunited; as Almighty God will never let the love I
gave you go in vain. So rather than say goodbye, I will say; See you soon
in Paradise my dear friend.

"There is not an animal that crawls through the earth, nor a bird
that flies on its two wings, but they are communities like you. We have
left nothing out of the Book. Then to Almighty God will they all be
gathered."
The Holy Qur'an 6:38

Ivan

Ivan
Passed away on October 17, 2005
 
Ivan was a beautiful gray tabby with gentle eyes and a wonderful disposition. I met Ivan 15 years ago when he came to my doorstep. I knew when I first laid eyes on him that he would become part of my family. He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

 
~ Love forever, Maija


 

Kiri

Kiri
Rescued July 31, 2001
Deceased June 7, 2005

Kiri, we are  missing you so much: we miss your curious look, your growling when you disapproved of something, your joyous excitement around food.

We tried to make your staying with us as pleasant as possible to make you forget the previous life of abuse that caused those serious health problems that finally claimed your life.

Everybody loved you here, the other kitties, who tolerated without retaliation your habit to play with their tails and the dogs that often endured a light swat when their canine exuberance disturbed your long naps. You became a little spoiled kitty, somehow every cat and dog here felt that you deserved special consideration.

You will be in our hearts until we will be reunited.
 

~ Claudia, Corinne and all ORA kitties
