Little Cat Feet

Shaggy and his littermate brother Scooby came to live with us in October 2005, when they were 5 years old. Scout arrived in 2006 at the age of 6 weeks. Scooby passed over very suddenly to the Rainbow Bridge on April 1, 2012 and is remembered fondly and missed deeply.

Rainbow Bridge

Our dear little guinea pig Theodore went to the Rainbow Bridge this morning.
T.T. is the piggie on the left in this picture. The other one is his dad Sam who went to the bridge last year. T.T. is joining his brother Zeus who died when he was young.
T.T. had a sweet, inquisitive personality and loved to be held and petted. He had unique "backwards fur" which grew from back to front instead of front to back.
He enjoyed carrots every morning along with parsley, grapes, oranges and lots of timothy hay. It's always hard to lose one of our precious ones, but he will be joining our other piggies who have passed that way earlier, and have been waiting for him at the Bridge.
Theodore, may you graze in green fields and frolic in the sun forever with all your piggie friends.
Love, Mom

We didn't know until today that you had piggies. We are so furry sorry! Too much sadness lately.

Bille, the girl ginger cat that belonged to the boy, went missing over a week ago. She was at the nap a thon and gave a talk and momma posted her picture on her blog sometime back. They fear a coyote got her.

Then Momma buried a sweet little hummingbird that died today. It was in the garden and let momma pick it up and hold it, momma knew it wasnt long for this world.

I am very sorry that Theodore had to go to the Bridge, but he will be very happy with the other piggies and he will live forever in your hearts.

So sorry for your loss of your beloved T.T. Emma wants to know what does T.T. stand for? I had guinea pigs growing up. Mindy and Chappie. They make the best pets! Smart little piggies they are! Well, sounds like T.T. had a great life and now gets to once again be with his dad and brother!
