My Trevor is at the RB (3/15/93-4/30/08)

[Logan]

I had a bittersweet moment at the dinner table last night. I told Helen and Scott that my dear friend, Pam, had lost her orange boy, Trevor. And I thought what a sad, sad day for Pam and her family, especially Andy. But I also thought, how strange and wonderful that I sit here and tell my family about the loss experienced by someone who I have never seen in person, but whose voice I know like my own, and who I have "loved" as a friend, for over 7 years now. I never will meet Trevor now, but his loss hit me just like the loss of one of my own would. But isn't it a wonderful gift we have received, finding friends, all over the world, because of this wonderful community of people, just like ourselves, who laugh when we laugh, cry with us when we are sad, and support us through tough times?

Trevor, you were a wonderful orange boy, and seeing your pictures and being reminded of your story has reminded me just how wonderful you were.

We love you, Pam, and just like you've been there for me, I'm right here for you, too. Just wish I could come give you a big hug right now.

Pam, I just read your post about Trevor and the Dunkin Donuts. Thanks for making me laugh and thank you for sharing his COTD link.

Logan this is the essence of Pet Talk. I really can't understand it, but I am ever so grateful for this website. Your words were so true and we are all so blessed to have been able to meet such wonderful friends here. Thanks to Karen and Paul for starting such a wonderful site. Words cannot express our gratitude.

Pam, I am so sorry to hear that your sweet Trevor has gone to the Rainbow Bridge.
He lived a long and happy life with you and your family.
I remember when I first joined Pet Talk and you posted a story about Trevor throwing up a nice big orange hairball on the kitchen table that you managed to hide from your husband before he sat down for breakfast.
When I read that story, I learned that hairballs come in different colors, just like cats. From my experience with a black and white cat, the only hairballs I ever saw were mousy grey ones. I still can picture Trevor's orange hairball on your table and it makes me smile, hopefully it will make you smile too.
Remember the good times you had with him.
Sending hugs your way.

Thank you for that memory! Yes, I only shared that with immediate family members and, of course, the whole internet via Pet Talk! LOL! Thankfully hubby never reads PT except if I point out a particular post or picture for him. Trevor's little secret will remain a secret. You know looking back on the lives of our pets does give us comfort after they have left us. We are changed because we knew them even if for a short time in the scheme of things.

Thank you again everyone for such nice posts. He is gone but will never be forgotten that is for sure.

I am so very sorry for your loss . Trevor always appeared so calm and laid back in your photos. He sounds like a very special kitty, and that he has left you with many warm and humorous memories to treasure. Rest well, handsome Trevor.

[Daisy and Delilah]

I'm so sorry, Pam. Trevor was such handsome boy and quite a character. Trevor did what he wanted to and didn't care what anyone thought. I am also smiling at the Dunkin Donut story. It sounds like his personality was unforgettable. Such a tremendous loss it is to lose a beloved family member of fifteen years. What a great live he had here and he was loved so much.

Rest in Peace Trevor Play hard at the bridge, sweetheart. I know the cream donuts are plentiful there.
