Pet Memorials
In Loving Memory
Honouring and remembering the pets we have helped transition across the rainbow bridge.
Please send us an email if you would like to honour your pet’s memory.
Bella
Bella was our sweet little girl for nearly 17 years
She loved playing ball in her younger days more than any other activity
She loved the beach and her walks she just loved being outside
Bella was extremely food motivated and she once ate a pound of butter when our backs were turned
She also stole and ate a quesadilla out of my sisters purse
My sister had gotten a doggie bag from her lunch and happened to leave her purse on the floor
Well Bella thought it was hers!!
Bella was loving and affectionate loved to be in my arms and sleeping with us safely at night
I loved that little girl with everything I had
As long as she was with us she was happy
I cant imagine my life without her but we sent her off in the most beautiful compassionate way possible
I am so thankful I found Resting Paws they cover every detail and I was able to spend every moment saying goodbye
Diesel
Diesel was the sweetest boy and a very loyal friend. He provided comfort to our family during very difficult times. He was full of beans and a great source of fun and laughs. He loved going for walks and on adventures and soaking in the sun. His favourite activity involved any kind of treat toy. He loved food most of all. Diesel is deeply loved and greatly missed. ❤️ 🐾
Rosie
She loved sitting between her dad’s legs on the couch, chin rubs, & sharing our food, especially burgers. We’ll miss her every day.
Charlie
“I adopted Charlie from a rescue when I was 18 and he was 3 months old. Over the past 11 years of growing and changing, the one constant was how much we loved each other. We were inseparable. I can’t wait to play fetch with him again someday.”
Brody
Always remembered and loved
Snuffalluffagus
Snuffaluffagus was the bestest, cutest and most nicest cat. No kitten was loved more. I’m so grateful that we found each other, it felt like it was destiny. You are enormously missed. I love you and always will. She is and will always be ‘sooo cute’.
Lua
We will always remember how she was all heart. She took care of all our rescue animals, the loving mama, even when she was still a pup. She was a beautiful soul that will forever be missed.
Remy
Remy loved her sunbeams, almost as much as she loved rotisserie chicken and tuna. All she ever wanted was to be cuddled, and be carried around on your hip. She never stopped talking, and could never resist a good blanket den. She was present for so many of our big moments, it’s hard to imagine life without her. 8 years was far from enough. We’ll miss her forever.
Daisy
With the utmost care and compassion, Dr Vanessa and her assistant attended my home, and helped my beloved Daisy Cat leave this world from a safe and trusted place where she knew she was loved. Daisy was 19 years old, and had adopted me when she was a 3 year old living at the SPCA. I actually had been looking for a black cat & knew nothing about Tortois. Over 3 different visits, Daisy convinced me that she was meant to be mine.
With the help of some kind friends recently, I learned about home hospice pet care. Daisy’s condition had declined rapidly with significant loss of weight. When she then began to regurgitate water I knew the time had come, as difficult as that decision was. Resting Paws was kind enough to respond and attend within 48 hours of my call.
Daisy was a small cat, who when I adopted her appeared to be all head & skinny body. I think she had faced a lot of competition at feeding time, as she initially would “wolf down” all the food she could see for many months, until she began to trust that there would be food. She hated Car rides, and would howl all the way to the Vet’s, thus , it was important to me that she be at home as comfortable as possible before transitioning across the ‘Rainbow Bridge’. I was able to tell her that on the other side she would meet other kitties I had loved in my life : Gee, Ming, Shadow and Sheba, and that she would not be alone.
Diana
Savanna
Savanna crossed over the rainbow bridge on 19 February 2024.🌈 Thank you to Resting Paws for ensuring Savanna’s crossing was a peaceful one. She joins her dad and two best buddies, Dennett and Sabre. I am sure they are all happy to be together again. They are all dearly missed.
Nugget
Nugget came to Dr. Vanessa 17 years ago as an orphaned kitten who required bottle feedings around the clock. She grew into the purrfect companion who filled our lives with so much joy and warmth 😻She was the queen of drooling while purring, a sunbathing beauty with an odd, but adorable, obsession with bananas 🍌 She will be missed dearly 💔
Rest in peace sweet Nugget. You have surely left paw prints on the hearts of so many 🐾
Begley
This guy came into our lives on December 29, 2010…we had him for almost exactly 13 years. We will miss him so much. He was the best companion and fur brother to our daughter. He was a great walking partner to his dad. He was the best coworker for myself…he was by my side all day everyday for 13 years. He was the best photoshoot dog despite being all black and hard to light..he willingly wore costumes and always knew the exact spot to sit for the ‘dog’ in any family photo. He was a 70lb lap dog but always asked to get on the couch before jumping up. He survived cancer twice and gave us 13 amazing years. We are missing him so much already. We have so many wonderful memories. We are so grateful that he was able to be at home with us for his final moments. Thank you Dr. Vanessa.
Mystic
In loving memory of our sweet and special, Mystic, who brought so much joy and love to our lives. She passed peacefully while laying on my lap (her favourite place to be). I’m so grateful that I had 18 years with her sassy little attitude. Rest peacefully my sweet Mystic.
