I miss my little girl who passed too young and too quickly on December 23rd, 2013. She was only 3 months old when I got her and still remember the day she joined my family. She had seen a lot of different changes and moves over her short life. She always adjusted and made the home I was in her own. In 2009 she joined her buddy, Colby(dog) and moved with me from Ontario to Alberta. She was a indoor only cat until we met a new and very special man who was a Rancher and off we moved to the county life. Once there, she was allowed out and had a great freedom of life and running out in the meadows. She lived on the farm for 2 years before she passed away from a disease called Cryptosporidia(not sure if spelled correctly but sounds right) which caused her to be violently sick and had to get medication and special food to survive as long as she did. In the end she was only about 4lbs, not eating at all and only drinking. I tried all I could to help her and get her better but I couldn't save my little princess. She was a one of a kind girl who will forever be a part of me and our lives. She was cremated and lays here at home in a Cedar Urn on the coffee table along with a picture of her and her harness that she wore before she became an outdoor cat.
Anyone that knew her, knew that she was a cuddly, warm and very loving girl who always sat on my lap while I was on my laptop purring and cuddling in. When she was a kitten she used to lay on the top of my monitor of my computer and watch what I was doing from above! She was quite the personality! It took until just before he passing to allow her Daddy to cuddle with her. She was a cuddler with me only until near the end, then her Daddy was also allowed to cuddle and snuggle in too !! I miss her more then words can say. I love and miss her so much that in February 2014 I got a tattoo of her on the back of my calf to forever have her as a part of me. I love you Utah and I miss you more then anything in the world!!! You died too young my baby and I wish you were still here to cuddle with me.
I know that the ones who passed before you, Midnight, Shadow, Tippy, Tiny, and Gigi are there playing with you and welcomed you with open paws.Nov 15th, 2014
I am thinking of you more and more everyday my darling little princess as the times comes up to the 1st anniversary of your going over the Rainbow Bridge. I can feel you with me even now and I do see you once in a while out in the pasture watching for those mice you loved to bring back for the kittens. I was also thinking about the nights after your passing how I would hear you jumping off the counter when we were in bed. I would be laying in bed, then I would hear the "thump" of your little paws hitting the floor after you did your investigation of the counters looking for some "snacks". Your Daddy also heard you one night and thought he saw you walk past the bedroom door. I miss your snuggles with me at night when you would come and lay next to my head on my pillow. Daddy and I were looking at pictures of you the other night remembering all the times you were so funny. We found the picture when Daddy got you to hold Mommy's wallet, you looked so cute with your Mardi Gras beads and my red wallet under your front leg lol You always put up with the "dress up" I used to do to you at each holiday. Your Santa cap, your Halloween costumes and anything else I decided to put on you. I hope you have found a lot of new friends up there and are playing and greeting any new ones that have come in after you. Your Daddy and Mommy and your best friend Colby, love you very much baby girl to eternity and back, Love Mommy xoxoxoxoxoxoxo Nov 16th, 2014
Hello my Princess! I am missing you very much today. Mommy is sick with a terrible cold and remember all the times that you would cuddle in with me to keep me warm and happy! Daddy played hockey today and said it was a great time. Mommy didn't do much at all today with being sick but I did manage to look at all your pictures that I have here of you! I miss you my darling little girl and love you very much!! xoxoxoxoxoxox Dec 9th, 2014
Hello my darling baby girl! I am missing you very much as the time gets closer to the 1st Anniversary of your passing :( I think about you and talk about you still like you are here with me. Colby your best buddy will be joining you soon as he is starting to fail which is going to be hard on me and Daddy. The only thing that I can do is to know that you and Colby will again be together and can cuddle and play like you used to ! I know he misses you very much honey, when I talk about you and mention your name, if he is close enough to hear because he is almost completely deaf now, he perks his ears up and looks around. I will make sure that I put your stocking out for Christmas still because I want that memory to never go away! Your Daddy bought me a new trailer for me to take your buddies ET and Rey to ride and go to shows. Daddy had some luck and I think you had a lot to do with it! I can feel you with me once in a while but not like I used to. You can come and visit me whenever you want, I will be happy to see you even as a shadow or a feeling. God Bless you my darling and always know Mommy and Daddy love you very, very much !! xoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxo April 29th,2015
My darling Utah, it has been a long time since I have written to you. You friends Oreo and Tiki had their babies last week! Oreo had 5 little darlings and Tiki we are not sure, she hid them under the barn floor lol We are missing you very much honey and I look at your picture and talk to you each day! I haven't heard from you or seen you for a while now, and wish you would come to visit again! Daddy misses you very much too !! You left us too soon and hard to believe it was almost 1 1/2 years ago! :( Love you darling and will write again soon! Have fun and run and play with all your friends! You are my Angel !!! xxxxxooooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo December 23rd, 2015
My dear sweet little girl Utah, today is 2 years since you left us. I have thought of you each and every day since you went over the Rainbow Bridge! I still feel you with us playing with the stuff on the counter, trying to get into the butter dish lol and now that the Christmas decorations are up, you playing with the balls on the tree! I still have your picture and Urn at the window so you can look outside and watch the other cats and Colby outside. Colby will soon be joining you as your big brother is very sick. We want you to please get ready to show him the ropes and please take care of him and make sure he feels your unconditional love that you have always had for him. I know he misses you very much and you can see he is looking for you to help him with this process. Utah, I was looking at your video that I made when you passed away and it felt just like you were still here. It may have been 2 years ago, but you will always be here in our hearts. Daddy misses you too, he was very sad and teary eyed when he was looking at the video too! You were a very special precious girl. We love you and will be back soon to talk to you again!! All my love my little Angel xoxoxoxoxoxo June 23rd, 2016
My darling Utah, as you know by now, your brother Colby has joined you over the Rainbow Bridge. Please show him the ropes and take care of him. Colby knew you were here all the time near the end as he looked where you used to sit all the time and stared. I miss you very much baby girl each day. Daddy and I are now alone (other than the barn and outside cats) and feeling very lonely in the house. You and your brother were our lives and after losing the 2 of you, we can not bring another one into our home. You are the final 2 and I am thankful each and every day to have had you both in our lives. I will be doing a page for him too so that I can go and look and write to you both and tell you what is going on in our life! We love you our princess and miss you more than I can say! xoxoxoxoxoxo August 30th, 2016
Was thinking about you and your brother, Colby, today and stopped by to tell you how much I am still missing you each and every day! It isn't as hard now, but I still get tears in my eyes when I look at your pictures. You were the best friend a girl could ask for. I love you baby girl and hope that you and Colby are happy and healthy again running in the meadows chasing butterflies and rolling in the grass.
Forever in my heart, forever loved and forever missed! Mommy and Daddy xoxoxoxoxo
December 23rd, 2016
Today is 3 years since you went over the Rainbow Bridge our darling Utah 😭 We think about you each and every day. This time of year is hard for Mommy and Daddy now that you and your brother Colby are no longer physically here. I can still see your precious little face curled up beside me on my pillow each night purring away as we both drift off to sleep. I hear you playing on the counter and jumping off so you aren't caught. Life is a lot quieter in the house now without you and Colby. Please continue to play and be here with us the way you have always been. I hope that you and Colby are up there playing and running around making new friends and showing any others that arrive how great it is there. We love you baby girl, now and forever and I am sorry I haven't written as much as before but I know you understand that I have you always in my mind and heart. I willl never forget your love and devotion. I hope you are cuddling up with Grandpa and showing him that cats like you and dogs like Colby are okay to be round. Missing you baby girl !!! 💖💖💖💖💖😭
June 15th, 2017
Our dearest baby girl Utah, we miss you so very much! Tomorrow is the 1st Anniversary of Colby's passing and we are feeling so sad because we don't have you here to cuddle and snuggle us to show us that it is going to be okay! Please take care of your brother as I know he is taking care of you! You would be very happy, we don't have a lot of kittens here anymore on the farm lol I know how much all the little ones bothered you whenever you were outside ;) I saw a kitten a while ago that I thought was you! She looked exactly like you did when you were a baby even the eyes and that look of softness and caring kindness you always had. I wanted to scoop her up and take her home but I know that there is only going ever be 1 Utah, and that is you! Daddy and Mommy still can't bring another kitty (a new one) into our home or another puppy to replace your brother. The 2 of you are the last of the great ones. We miss you darling and I look at your picture each and every day as it sits on a table right beside Mommy's chair!
Love you now and forever! Mommy and Daddy 💖💖💖💖💖😭

To our dearest baby Utah, you are still our sunshine and ray of light whenever we are down and out. It is hard to believe that today marks the 4th Anniversary since you went over the rainbow bridge. A lot has happened since you left us here but your absence has always been felt. Another year has passed and our love for you is still the same as it was when you were part of this World. We are comforted knowing that Colby and you are both together again forever. Mommy and Daddy are missing you so very much and Daddy misses having you snuggle up on his neck and I miss you curled up on my lap while I am on my laptop or having you snuggled up next to me in bed each night. We lost you too soon honey, hard to believe you would only be 14 now and if I could turn back time, I would just to have you here with us again! Merry Christmas baby girl and know that we are always thinking of you!
All our love and snuggles and kisses to you baby girl! Mommy and Daddy 💖💖😭😭
December 23rd, 2019
My dearest Utah, I can't believe that this is the first time I have written on your wall in 2 years :( You know that I am always thinking of you, seeing you still and feel you with me! I can't believe that it is was 6 years ago today that you went over the rainbow bridge! Time has sure passed but those memories sure haven't. I guess since I haven't written in here for the last 2 years I didn't tell you to get ready to show your outside cat brother, Priestly all the ropes which I am sure you did when he passed. He left us 21 months ago and I am sure he is up there with you and Colby running and playing! We are going to visit Grandma and the kids for Christmas. They all still miss you as we do. Merry Christmas our baby girl and know we love you, now and forever!! Love Mommy and Daddy 💖💖😭😭 October 19th 2020
My darling baby girl Utah! I need to start coming to visit you here more often.😭 We have had a pretty weird 2020 so far and it won't be getting any better by the sounds of it. We were hit with what is being called COVID-19 another bad strain of the flu that is a pandemic and it is World wide! So thankful you aren't here to have to see all the sadness and people going through such terrible things because of this. I miss you so very much now and today I woke up thinking of you and wishing you were here to cuddle with. I saw this cute little kitty yesterday at a friends. It was a Manx so had no tail and was only 5 weeks old. I picked her up and she cuddled with me like you used to do! I wanted to just take her home but I know I just couldn't do it! You are the last house cat that will ever be in our lives (unless one of your brother or sisters outside need to come in for a bit). I can't believe that is is going on 7 years that you have been gone from us 😭😭 I wanted to tell you how much Daddy and I miss you! 💖💖 Love you my precious girl and I hope you, Colby and Priestly are having a great time up there! God Bless you honey, Mommy and Daddy! Dec 23rd, 2020
WOW baby girl, I can't believe that you have been gone for 7 years already! Time really goes by too fast! Daddy and I sure miss you and Colby a lot! I was looking at pictures of you the other day crying and remembering all the love you had for me and all that I had for you!! You were/are my precious little Angel who I know is here with me each day! Merry Christmas baby girl, this is year 7 without you tearing into your gifts!
Daddy had surgery on November 10th and came through it with flying colors! Honey (Mommy's newest horse) is so sore on her back end on the left side, I think it was from when Rey kicked her when she came back home in the end of July after being gone for 2 months to the breeders. Poor Rey was so mad at her he took it out on her! I needed you here to get in between them and stop it! lol
Grandma Mary is doing great in the Assisted living facility she is at. She has gained a few pounds, made lots of friends and is living her life again after losing Grandpa almost 5 years ago. She needed to be there with other people and not stuck in her apartment all day alone and lonely! I know she misses you too and so does Auntie Sandy! Daddy and I talk of you often and say how we lost you way too young!
You are forever in our souls and hearts!
Love you always and forever, Mommy and Daddy 💖💖 March 26th, 2021
I saw this great poem and had to share it with you and your brother Colby because it was like you were sending me this! So here it is my darling sweet girl who I miss each and every day still over 7 years after you have passed! "Hi, Mum
Now that I've been across The Rainbow Bridge for a time now, they said I should write a letter home. Sorry, mum, but I'm so busy 'across the bridge' that I haven't thought of home much. They said it's okay and that you would understand. I hope you do. (I think you will.)
Remember that night when I wasn't feeling very well and we were all crying? I don't remember much, but I do remember seeing and hearing all of you and feeling your touches and hugs...I remember hearing "we love you" and that one last command of "Go through". I didn't know what you meant, so I turned around and walked through the fog that was in front of me. I saw the biggest bridge I've ever seen! And so many friends on the other side of it! They were all playing with toys and balls! You were right to tell me to go there!
My feet kept moving forward, but my heart kept pulling me back. Your touches became lighter and lighter and I wanted to come back and nudge your hands for more love, but I was overcome by this feeling of curiosity for the happy place over the bridge! My feet started moving on their own, like a gentle breeze was moving them forward for me! I can't explain it, but I had no doubt that it was the right thing to do!
So, I walked across that big, huge bridge by myself! I looked for you, because you're always by my side, walking with me, but this was different. I didn't have a collar around my neck or a leash connecting me to you ~ I was 'free'! Even though you weren't there with me, I never felt alone! I actually felt like I had a huge cape of love wrapped around my body and the more I walked, the easier it was to breathe! So, I kept walking! And I would feel more warmth in the big hug, so I kept on walking! I eventually made it over the big bridge -- I did it by myself, mum!
When I got here, all of my new friends greeted me and helped me walk off the bridge ~ it was so cool! They gave me a pair of wings and said that I was now a Guardian Angel!
What I've learned over these past few weeks has been amazing and nothing like I've seen before! We're all the same up here ~ we all have wings and we all have Forever People to watch over ~ that's YOU, mum!You're my Forever Person and I'm your Forever Cat! We had such a great life together and I do miss you a LOT, but please know that I am so happy in my new home across The Bridge!
I'll send you another Earth Angel so you won't be alone. Give them your whole heart, like you gave it to me. I'll check in every so often to make sure they treasure your love ~ I always did! When you miss me, think of a rainbow and know I'm on the other side of it, waiting to walk with you again. I'll always be in your heart. I love you, mum! Time for me to go play
Here i am......see me ! We love you so very much my darling girl!!
We miss you beyond words!!
Love Mommy and Daddy xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo November 18th, 2021
Our darling and precious Utah!
We miss you more and more than we ever have! I saw a kitty today that looked EXACTLY like you and she walked up to me and rubbed on my leg. It reminded me so much of you. I can't believe that even almost 8 years later, you are still the first baby I talk about and think about each and every day! When people say oh look at that pretty kitty, I say not as pretty as my Utah was. I still look at the tattoo that I got of you every day, not because it is easy to see, but because I know how much you loved me.
God bless you my baby girl and know that I am always here thinking of you and hoping that you and your brother Colby are enjoying life and running around playing and getting all the treats you always wanted! We love you to the moon and back baby girl and miss you even more!
Love Mommy and Daddy xoxoxoxoxoxo December 23rd, 2021
Our darling little girl Utah!!
We can't believe that today marks 8 years since you left us! It still feels like yesterday and I wish I could hold you again and watch you play with your Christmas toys like you used to do! We hope you and Colby are playing and running around in Heaven. We hope that you are also great friends with Priestly since he joined your both there almost 4 years ago. You will forever be my precious, sweet, adorable, baby girl and I will NEVER forget about you!! I still smile when I remember some of the things you used to do and I cry remembering all the times I used to be able to cuddle you and have you sleep on me. There will never be another baby like you!!
God Bless and we both miss you very much little one!!
Merry Christmas in Heaven!
Love Mommy and Daddy!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo June 17th, 2022
My Darling Utah,
I wanted to stop in and say hi to you today! I am missing you and your Brother Colby. Yesterday was 6 years since Colby passed and I am sure that you are both running and playing with Priestly and all those that passed before you!
Mom and Dad finally decided it was time to get another indoor pet. We are getting 2 baby kittens (both males) so that we can have some companionship again here in the house. It has taken us 6 years to find new babies! They won't be like you, but we will love them as much as we did you!! Miss you very much honey,
Mom and Dad xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Our dearest Utah,
Merry Christms honey!! I still can't believe it is now 9 years since you left us!! How did time go by so fast? :( We miss you so very much still to this day. Daddy and Mommy finally got a couple new kittens this year. One will be an outdoor kitty and his name is Walter, just like the Chevy Commerical and the little orangle tabby is called "Angel" because I could feel you there so know that you are still with us as part of her. She was a street kitten when we got her at 1 month old. She reminds me of how gentle and kind you were!
I still wish you were here with us but I know that things happen for a reason in life, and you had lived the life you were meant to live and loved us completely for the full time you were on this Earth!
I almost forgot to tell you!!!! Mommy and Daddy got engaged yesterday on Christmas Eve!! I wish you were here to help us celebrate but I know your spirit is here and you are happy for us!!
Love you baby girl and miss you tremendously!!
Mommy and Daddy xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Our dearest Utah!
I can't believe today is 10 years to the day that you went over the Rainbow Bridge! It really can't be that long can it ?? :( You are missed so much each and every day and I miss our cuddles at night, in the morning, during the day, actually all day! You were always my constant companion following me, laying on me, cuddling with me day and night! I still feel you here with me and miss you so very much! The pain hasn't dwindled and it never will. You were an amazing girl who are one of a kind. <3
Angel the little girl I spoke about last year, has grown into an amazing young lady(but still nothing like you). She isn't a cuddler like you were BUT she does love her scratches and kisses when she is laying on her window perch. She is kind and gentle and very smart just like you! You would have really loved her, I know you would have!
I wanted to tell you Mommy and Daddy got MARRIED on our 13th Anniversary of the day we met August 13th. I could feel you there when I was getting ready telling me it was the right decision because I know how much you loved him just like I do! He really is an amazing man who is always there for me whenever I need him to be there! Just like he was for you and Colby.
Mommy and Daddy are having the family Christmas here this year for the first time in many years! We both want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and know my darling that we will always be thinking of you and have you close in our hearts!!
Love today and every day forward plus miss you still so very much!
Mommy and Daddy!! xoxoxoxoxoxo
Please also visit Colby.
