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.
In loving memory of Ramsey. A best friend and long time companion to my brother Bruce. Until we are all reunited, rest easy Ramsey, and know how much joy, love, and purpose you brought to Bruce's days.
By sharing this pet’s memorial page, you’re helping to keep the memory of a beloved companion close — and you’re helping others understand the place pets forever inhabit in our hearts.
The gate where once another stood, to beg for shelter, warmth, and food?
For from that day I ceased to be the master of my destiny.
While she, with purr and velvet paw, became, within my house, the law.
She scratched my furniture and shed and claimed the middle of my bed.
She ruled in arrogance and pride, and broke my heart the day she died.
So if you really think, oh cat, I'm willing to relive all that
Because you've come, forlorn and thin, Well -- don't just stand there--come on in!
🐾 Love You Dad 🐾
