Welcome to Zoe (Squeak)'s Rainbow Residency

Memories of Zoe (Squeak)

From 9 -- 10:30am I went in to visit with Squeak. She did not want me to hold her so I rubbed her head and ears, purred around her, put my hand along her body, just so she knew I was there. After a few minutes she shakily stood up and walked into my arms and I held Squeak in my arms and cuddled her until her surgery. She made it through and I saw her and loved on her some more. Then I gave her a kiss so Christi could get her all set up. At 8pm Christi called me and told me she went to heaven before they got a chance to do her first feeding. Jim and I went to Henderson in July of 2002 and bought some supplies at PetSmart. He told me to go look at the cats. I wanted all of them. I held Squeak and that was all she wrote. We bought a box for the trip home, but I returned it and said I'll just hold her. She rode cradled by my shoulders and arms all the way home to Havasu. We decided to call her Zoe. Squeak would sleep by my head on the bed and I would cuddle her and purr and say, "That's my skeek a boo." Sometimes she would just flop by my head, thump and sleep. She would sit by my feet and lay on her back with her paws up and folded -- so adorable. If I went to the bed for a nap she was right behind me and popped up by my head. She would dig in the toy basket for that just right toy and take it out and play with it. She would bring a stuffed mouse to me and play fetch; each time she brought it back she'd be a little farther away from me, making me work harder for it. She would lay on me and let me cuddle her as I watched tv. Squeak loved to drink water out of the RO faucet on Mohican. She would lap it for as long as I left it on. She would drink it from a regular faucet if it was a small stream. She would perch on one of my thighs as I typed on the laptop. If went to the bathroom she would zip in and talk to me and I would pat her butt and she would talk to me. She would fall down and start playing with me. She used to eat half rounds out of sleeves of my clothes. She stopped doing that after a couple of years. Squeak liked to chew on low voltage cords. Good thing Jim knows how to fix. (and shoelaces, hairbands, etc.) She would put her butt in my face if I was on the computer and she had jumped up on the counter. When she ate the piece of foam and had surgery she came home and stayed in the clothes closet so the others wouldn't bother her. It was our place. She liked to hop in the tub and just sit. When I would do my hair she would jump up and let me run my brush over her. She liked to sit in the red wirey cube things and just watch the other cats go nuts. Squeak loved to scratch on the big kitty tree and run up and down it when she was a "wild, ferocious" kitty. She would hide if anyone except me came into the house. And if others came with me she would not come out until they left. She liked to jump on the bed with Roxie when I put clean sheets on it. Squeak loved Q-tips. She would dig them out of the wastebasket and tear them apart all over the house. She used to play chase with Roxie, Bear, and Jag through the house and they sound like little horses zipping by. When Squeak would walk to wherever I was sitting, all I had to do was put my hands down and clap, say her name and she started to trot faster toward me. Bear would walk up to her and she would start cleaning his face and ears. Then he would clean her. Sometimes they just fell asleep, but sometimes they would start a little fight afterward. Most recently I would sit on the floor and toss up one kibble at a time and she would attack it or catch it then eat it. I love her so much and I always will. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. Squeak took my breath away! I love you forever Squeak. I am so sad you had to leave so soon. You are my heart kitty and I cannot wait to see you again. Taffy, Rocky, Madison, Mickey, Murphy, Theo, Robert, and Missy are waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge to talk to about me and my crazy ways! Tell them I love them. Jag, Roxie, and Bear miss you dearly. I love you forever my dear sweet heart kitty. My forever pet There's something missing in my home, I feel it day and night, I know it will take time and strength before things feel quite right. But just for now, I need to mourn, My heart -- it needs to mend. Though some may say, "It's just a pet," I know I've lost a friend. You've brought such laughter to my home, and richness to my days. A constant friend through joy or loss with gentle, loving ways. Companion, friend, and confidante, A friend I won't forget. You'll live forever in my heart, My sweet, forever pet. *Susanne Taylor Don't Weep Don't weep at my grave for I am not there, I've a date with a butterfly to dance in the air. I'll be singing in the sunshine wild and free, Playing tag with the wind while I'm waiting for thee. Grieve Not Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you... I loved you so - 'twas Heaven here with you." ---Isla Paschal Richardson Heavens Gate Your love was unconditional, faithful to the core, Always glad to see me, When I came in the door. Although you had to leave me, I know that you will wait, And you'll be there to greet me, When I come to Heaven's gate! In Loving Memory I loved your playful spirit, The softness of your fur, The way you brushed against my leg, Your sweet and gentle purr. I never will forget you, I loved you from the start, You left me with a special gift, Fond memories in my heart Angels Breath May the Angels breath flow softly And whisper in your ear How much we love and miss you And wish that you were here. Paw Prints The first time I laid eyes on you, I knew right from the start, that you were meant for me alone: You put pawprints on my heart. Safely Home I am home in heaven, dear ones; Oh, so Happy and so bright! There is perfect Joy and beauty In this everlasting light All the pain and grief are over, Every restless tossing passed, I am now at Peace forever, I am safely home at last. Part of Our Hearts Forever Could we ever forget your sparkling eyes or the way you brightened each day, or your smile which is etched in our memories, so you're never far away? Could we ever forget those priceless moments? The answer, of course, is never. For you were part of our lives for a brief time, but you'll be part of our hearts forever. On Angel's Wings May the angels who protected you through your earthly stay remain with you and comfort you with gentle love, we pray. May you spirit soar with the angels to your heavenly reward and dwell through all eternity in the presence of the Lord. My Friend To you my friend, so dear, so true, you helped me more then you ever knew. You were always there with love to share, I know in my heart you're in God's care. You shared your love, right to the end, I won't say goodbye, it's "until we meet again" Dawn I give you this one thought to keep - I am with you still - I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not think of me as gone- I am with you still - in each new dawn.
