Minnie

2015 – 2025

Seven years with you was not enough "Minnie Mouser." How little and scared you were at the PetSmart adoption just waiting for us to find you. Your love of toys and playing fetch was a joy. Oh, how you loved to choose a squeaky toy to run and make lots of noise and toss it in the air. Visiting the neighbors was one of your favorite activities to get a treat. You loved Rosie so much, wanting to always be with her and curl up in bed right next to her. Coming home will not be the same without you running to meet me at the door. My peace is you are with Bob, Coco, Martha, Hannah and Heidi. Rosie and I will miss your loving attitude every day. There will always be a Minnie sized hole in my heart. Until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. We love you precious "Minnie Mouser". Carole and Rosie

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

Share the memory of your pet

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.
