New Memorial Forums

[Karen]

We created the new forums for memorials in each category - Dog, Cat and Pet. Concern was expressed by Bisi.cat that announcements of a beloved pet's death were sometimes missed in the hustle and bustle of the "General" forums. So these will be permanent forums for such sad events, a way to let everyone know, and to celebrate pets ongoing presence in our hearts after we have had to say good-bye to them in person.

Great idea and as I said before, thank you for all you do in making this a wonderful website. I just wish there was something I could do in return for all your hard work, but all I have to offer is headbumpies from Specks and purrs from Max.

Thank you again.:) :)

[Dogz]

I think that this is a really good idea. I think that it is a great addition to our site.:)

[delidog]

As Always, Geat call out,Karen!!!

Great Idea!!!!!

Thank You

[trayi52]

This is a fantastic idea!! I am glad you thought of it. I have read so many sad stories of loss, and there should be a special place just for these beloved pets that have gone out of our lives.

Good Going, Karen!:)

[Cookiebaker]

I think it's a very wonderful idea!

Oh I am so happy to read this thread, what a fabulous idea, I have a memoriam coming up in Feb, and it will be great to have that special place that I can pay my tribute to my furbaby, thank you so much Karen and Paul.:)

Wonderful idea--I agree, sometimes these posts can get lost, and now we have a place to go and read these special words.

Thanks again Karen!!

I have moved a few threads, if you can think of ones that should be moved to the memorial forums, PM me with a link, and I'll do so.

bisi.cat should get the credit - it was her idea! :)

[slick]

How far back do you want to go????

There's Gabe and Graemer
Pepper

and a few others from a year ago that I'm sure I've forgotten. If you want the links I can find them for you.

[jazzcat]

Thanks Karen and bisi.cat!!

I just noticed the memorial threads and I think that's a great idea. I too, miss these threads sometimes.

[RubyMutt]

[bisi.cat]

I just woke up to see the new sites!!!

You're simply the best!!!

What a wonderful idea! Way to go bisi.cat and Karen. Now we won't miss such sadness...you know what they say, "happiness shared, is happiness doubled, and pain shared is pain divided".

[PayItForward]

I thought I had been particular dim, when I saw the Cat Memorial this morning. I thought I had managed to miss that section for a year ;)

Great idea bisi.cat :D

Cataholic, I had never heard that but it is so true!

Bisi.cat what a wonderful idea!

Karen, thank you for adding this new forum for us. The one loss that I remember at the moment is K9Karen's dog, Cody. I will try and find the thread now.

Karen, I didn't want to add it to the Dog Memorial myself because it would be out of chronological order.

[Cookiebaker]

Another one is Lizbud's Buddy. :(

[rg_girlca]

I also add that this is such a wonderful idea.

[lizbud]

I was very pleased to see these changes today. It's a great
idea. Thanks to Bisi.cat, Karen and Paul. :)

[IttyBittyKitty]

And there are poops on the laundry floor, the cats have pulled down the net curtains in the bedroom (again) and a new forum has appeared in Pet Talk! :D

Great idea, though, a good way for everyone to commemorate pets who have just passed to the bridge and to remember those who have in the years past.

[Mario9012]

The first dead pet before s/he was on Pet of the Day was on the date of November 30th, 1997. A dog named Barkly was about 15 years old when he died.

[ChrisH]

What a wonderful idea! Thanks bsi.cat, Karen and Paul. :)

Thank you Cookiebaker. That is so sweet of you to remember
my Buddy.:) He is in my thoughts everyday & the last one I
say goodnight to every evening. It makes me feel better that
someone else remembers him too. Liz.
