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
Butters~ your original name was Sweet Potato & indeed you were the sweetest , most mellow boy! You allowed us to dress you up! You were a talker who asked for your Tuna Filet every night.
Butters loved all his cat houses, we called him the Mayor of Peabody!
We know Loki, Parker Junior, Bella, Bullseye & all the animals we have loved, met you at the bridge. Until we meet again, rest easy sweet boy.
