06/17/2017: Teddy Bear my love, I miss you so much! You were the light of my life in the short time you were with me. You were just so special to me and loved me so much. I loved you lots back, too! I have faith I will see you again when it's meant to be. Looking forward to it!

06/18/2017: PETS DO GO TO HEAVEN!

Owners and their animals will reunite. Pet lovers everywhere who've mourned the loss of a beloved animal can take comfort in the knowledge that all God's creatures do go to Heaven. (per Gary Kurz, author of "Cold Noses at the Pearly Gates"). The Bible gives indisputable and convincing evidence that heartbroken owners will see their pets again. Animals are important to God. Jesus also promises eternal life for all in Revelation 5:13: "And every creature which is in Heaven."

Losing a pet is one of life's most traumatic experiences and people too often lose perspective. Hold pets in your heart but know that physically they are in another place, a place far superior to the one they left. There is no doubt that animals are eternal creatures. In truth, they really are His animals, and not ours. They belong to the One who created them and gave them life. They're merely on loan to us." Amen to that!

I will see you again Teddy Bear, Tommy and Chaz at the Rainbow Bridge! My beloved orange kitty boys!

06/18/2017: Teddy Bear my love, I still cry for you everyday! Every time I look at your photos the floodgates open big time again! I know it will get easier as time goes on but it's so hard right now. I don't understand why this had to happen and it was so totally unexpected. I tried my best but it wasn't meant to be.

I was your Mom and always told you that you were my bestest boy. I know you adored me and you knew you were a handsome boy; I always told you that you were gorgeous. I treated you like a human and not just some cat. After all you were my child. I loved you so much. But your body gave out and your soul is on the Other Side.

06/20/2017: Today is my birthday Teddy Bear. I wish you were still here to celebrate it with me! Miss you so much. You were my heart and soul!

06/30/2017: Teddy Bear my love, it's been almost three months since the day I had to put you to sleep here at home. The worst day of my life! When does it get better? I still cry for you every day. I so wish things could have been different, but it wasn't meant to be. I loved you so much but you know that! I can't wait until we meet again and we will!

07/15/2017: I want to tell you Teddy Bear that I've allowed another orange boy kitty to come into my life as of July 9th. His name is Winston and he is five years old. He is very lovable. He is helping to heal my heart from missing you so much. It's been three months now since you went to the Rainbow Bridge so I need to love another kitty that is in need of a great home like you had. I'll love you always!

07/24/2017: Teddy Bear my love....missing you so much still. Yes, I love Winston lots but he isn't you. I do love him so much....at least I don't still cry every day for you. I'm happy Winston came to me through the angels. I'm attaching a picture of him. I know you approve!

08/11/2017: I'm feeling melancholy today my love! Miss you so much!

09/05/2017: Teddy Bear I miss you so much! Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and our happy times together. You were my lap cat and loved my kisses and hugs so much. I really miss that. Winston only tolerates me when I want to do the same with him but I do it anyway. I need my daily fix. I love you!!

04/05/2018: Hello Teddy Bear! Today marks the first year of the anniversary of your passing. Hard to believe it's been a year already. I still think of you all the time. The memories of the two of us enjoying each other's company everyday will never leave me. I also often look at your pictures on my computer (not without crying I might add). I wish Winston could have known you, too. You two would have been like two peas in a pod. Orange kitty boys rule in my world. I can't wait to see you again. Until then my faith will keep me going. Love you so so very much.

06/01/2018: Teddy Bear my love, it's now June 2018. I can't believe all the time that has passed. I miss you so much every day. What I would do to have you back with me if only for one day. I adore and love Winston so much but I sure wish I could spend more time with you! I'll never understand why certain things in life happen the way do! Love you lots forever!

06/14/2018: Teddy Bear, I needed to check in with you again here. I hope you're happy and roaming free at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for me with Tommy and Chaz. I pray I'll have Winston for many years yet...we'll see.

06/18/2018: Teddy Bear my love, my birthday is this Wednesday, June 20th. I so wish you could still be here with me. I have Winston now who I love with all my heart but I still want you so very much. I do thank the angels though for sending Winston my way in my time of need. For that I'll always be grateful.

07/25/2018: Teddy Bear, I was thinking of you and how much Winston seems to be like you. Or maybe it's just wishful thinking. He's very loving and cuddly like you were but he's not as fearless for some reason. I don't understand why he is so afraid when he hears small children squealing outside playing which makes him growl and go hide under my couch for hours. I'm glad he is with me now so I can take care of him and love him to no end. I just wish I had him for the first five years of his life. Love you Teddy Bear.

08/07/2018: Teddy Bear, I so wish I could look at your pictures on my computer without wanting to cry still. I'll never forget the day that I was blindsided by being given your death sentence and taking you home with me to be put to sleep. However, I'll never forget the vet that did this in such a horrible way; at least she is now retired. Thank the Lord! Love you so much! Can't wait to see you again on the Other Side! I believe!

09/07/2018: Teddy Bear, I think of you so often. My hurt from losing you so soon will never go away. I feel so blessed having had you in my life but I want you back so much! And I can't. I am grateful for Winston coming into my life in my time of need. I do love him so much but I still want you! Love you!

10/13/2018: Teddy Bear, I'll never forget you! I wish I could have you back every day of my life. Love, love you so much. Forever! Please be waiting for me when it's my time to cross over. That will make me so happy!

11/12/2018: Teddy Bear, I've been thinking of you a lot these past days. Not without tears for sure! I try not to delve on how you left me all of a sudden. Totally unexpected! I know I would never have accepted Winston into my heart without you being gone. I just have to believe that things happen for a reason and I may never understand why. I so hope I will see you again when my time is up. I'm counting on it big time!

11/23/2018: Teddy Bear, I hope there was a happy Thanksgiving Day at the Rainbow Bridge yesterday! I can't wait to see you, Tommy and Chaz again! Love you all forever!

12/02/2018: Teddy Bear, my love, I was just thinking of you! When am I not? You were the best and I miss you so much! I wish you could here with me to celebrate the Christmas holiday. Love you lots!

12/14/2018: Teddy Bear, Christmas is almost here. I miss you so much and still want to cry for you. I adore and love Winston so much but he isn't you. I want to see you again so much at The Rainbow Bridge when my time is up. Love you bunches and forever!

12/29/2018: Teddy Bear my love, 2018 is almost over. Still miss you as much as ever. Some days I just can't believe you're gone. Such a short time I was able to have you. You were the best and will be forever in my heart. Love you!

01/10/2019: Teddy Bear, I was just looking at your pictures on my computer. I still want to cry for you. Why did you have to leave me so soon? I'll never forget the day I came back home with you from the emergency vet where I was given your death sentence of cancer. I brought you home because I wanted you to be put to sleep at home. I just wish the vet that did it showed more compassion than she did but nothing I can do about it now. I know we'll be reunited again! Love you!

01/31/2019: Just stopping by to tell you that I'm thinking of you! Love you always! If I didn't have Winston in my life now I don't think I could go on.

02/14/2019: Happy Valentine's Day to you Teddy Bear and all the other pets, too at the Rainbow Bridge. Winston gave me some pink mini carnations to celebrate this day. They sure are pretty, too. lol

04/05/2019: Hello my sweet Teddy Bear! It has now been exactly two years ago today that I had to put you to sleep. I'll never forget that awful day and I'll never ever forget you! You were my bestest boy and always will be. Love you so much!

06/18/2019: Teddy Bear my love I think of you all of the time! I just can't believe you were with me for such a short time. I sometimes wonder what the heck happened. I'm grateful I have Winston in my life now but I sure wish you were still with me. I hope on my birthday this Thursday June 20th I'll feel you with me. Love you!

08/19/2019: Teddy Bear, I'm still missing you so much! I'll never ever forget you! You were the best and so loving! I sure hope it's true that I'll see you again. I believe!

09/08/2019: Hello my sweet Teddy Bear! I think of you all the time! I'm so grateful for Winston but what I would give to have you in my life again! Love you for all eternity!

10/07/2019: Teddy Bear, just stopping by to say hello once again. Miss you so much! Can't wait until the day we get to see each other again. I believe!

12/25/2019: Merry Christmas Teddy Bear! Love you forever!

02/14/2020: Happy Valentine's Day to you Teddy Bear! Even after almost three years I still get choked up when I look at your pictures; it was so hard losing you so unexpectedly. You were so terrific! Love and miss you so much.

03/15/2020: Gosh Teddy Bear, Winston looks so much like you it's uncanny. He's far from being as brave as you were but still has a major cat attitude which is so funny. Miss you always and can't wait to see you again! Love and kisses!

04/05/2020: Today marks the third year of your passing here at home with me. I'll never forget that day....it was so horrible. But Teddy Bear my love I'll always love you forever. You were the best cat I could ever ask for and you knew it, too. Love you!

06/05/2020: Oh Teddy Bear I just saw the last picture on my computer that I took of you on the day of your passing. You so loved going on the balcony. But you were skinny as a rail due to your cancer. I'll never ever forget you my love! I couldn't have asked for a better cat!

02/17/2021: It's been almost 4 years now without you Teddy Bear. It still feels like yesterday. I was just thinking of you and wishing I could see and hold you once again. You were my lovable lap cat. I can still see you sitting in my computer chair your favorite place. My cats have always meant so much to me...more so than any human person I've had in my life...just saying. Love you forever!

04/05/2021: It's been exactly four years ago today that I had to make that horrible decision to send you to the Rainbow Bridge. How I still so miss you! You were so loved and the best kitty I could ever have hoped for. I sure hope we do see each other again when my time is up. I believe we will and want to so bad. Love you forever!

04/05/2022: Today marks five years without you! I still miss you very much and always will! Love you forever!

02/22/2023: Teddy Bear my love! I was just thinking of you. I'll never forget you. Love you so much!

04/05/2023: Today makes it six years without you. Still missing you lots. You were the best. Will forever be in my heart!

09/18/2023: Teddy Bear my love. I was just thinking of you. I so miss you and wish you were still with me. Knowing I'll have to face this all over again with Winston I just can't fathom it. Love you forever!!

04/05/2024: Teddy Bear my love. Today it's 7 years since I've been missing you. I'll never forget you! Love you so much! Please be at the Rainbow Bridge when my time is up!
