Lily

2010 – 2026

On October 15, Heaven gained the most beautiful, precious Angel
🌈💔🐾
Lily, Lilypad, Lilijeczka, Lilijka…
There are no words for what you meant to me. My precious little princess, my heart is shattered.
I know Mickey greeted you full of joy. I know you are running now full speed zoomies and will soon have all the boys wound up around your little paws again, my little diva. Run free, have fun, and run to me when my time comes. You are so deeply burrowed into my heart and soul together with Mickey; you will forever be a part of me. I love you forever, my sweet, precious, perfect little girl.

We believe in honoring the lives of pets

Here at Best Friends, animals have such a special place in our lives. We honor those pets we’ve loved and those who need our help today. At Best Friends, we keep pets in our hearts

Remembrances

Leaving a personal story, memory, or words of support for a pet’s family is a heartfelt way to pay tribute and provide comfort. As part of your remembrance, we also invite you to leave a virtual token along with your words — similar to our tradition here at the Sanctuary of leaving stones, beloved items, or small toys on the graves of cherished animals.

Leave Your Remembrance

Lily, you are so missed, sweet angel. I will always remember you in your frilly dresses egging those big dogs on from the other side of the fence. They knew who was the boss! You ruled the roost at home, too. As the only girl, you sure put those boys in their place. Again, all while wearing a sweet frilly dress! You stole my heart from day one. I loved being your auntie. And I know you are up in heaven playing with Bruni and Mickey and Frodo and Ivy. (I’m sure you and Ivy are bossing around the boys.) You will forever be loved and missed, sweet girl. 💗
