    Losing a beloved pet is losing part of your heart. We miss them forever.

    I can still remember the day I read the news....I sobbed like he was my own. You brought him into many hearts with your stories and pictures of him through the years. Love this photo tribute to your special boy. XOXO

    Oh Kelley I know how you feel. It never goes away. I am so sad without my Oni. I think of him a thousand times a day and can't believe I won't see that funny face again. Your Chester was so beautiful and so cute. I loved reading about him always. I will never forget him because I always think of Kelley and Chester. He's waiting for you and so is my Oni.

    you were blessed to have each other ~ the time between seeing each other again will feel like a million years ~ but you will, one day, be able to see, feel, hear & smell him ~ he misses you as much as you miss him....no doubt in my mind.

    xoxoxox & many hugs to you my friend!

    I know exactly how you feel. I still expect to see my Sweet Emma Lou asleep on my bed or tucked by the wood stove warming herself. Her presence is deeply missed and will never be replaced. Sending you hugs from snowy Maine, Julie.

    Dear Kelley, I have read about your dear Chester for years. You did everything right by him. He knew it too. His time was short but I know you don't regret a moment spent with him even though he couldn't stay. Animal lovers have an infinite capacity to love. Mary A

    Chester has always been my favorite kitty (next to mine, of course). He just had such a loveable, regal air about him.
    Thanks for sharing photos......I have missed seeing his little sweet face.
    Thanks Kell.
