In Memory
Trouble
With extreme sadness and devastation, we had to make the very difficult decision to have our precious baby boy Trouble relieved from his struggling & suffering. Our hearts are absolutely broken.
He brought us so many laughs and such happiness. His presence & funny ways will be terribly missed.
Rest in peace our beautiful boy. Now your legs will run and walk once again. As we carried you through your debilitating fight against diabetes, we will carry you in our hearts forever. xox

Squash
Today we had to make the incredibly difficult decision to release our sweet boy Squash to the light. I cannot even begin to express the anguish that I am feeling right now. I don’t know if my heart will ever fully recover from this loss. I never expected this day to come so soon. I cannot say I would’ve ever been ready for this day.
Our home will never be the same without his incredibly gentle and loving soul. I will miss the special moments of him jumping into my arms the moment I walked through the door. He was a huge part of our family and truly one of a kind. Anyone who ever met him can completely understand where I am coming from.
He touched and won over the hearts of everyone he came into contact with. He even managed to win over the hearts of those that claimed they were not “cat people.” He had a personality that people could just not resist. Even the vet described him as being such a gentleman during his last stay there.
Squash, I know Denny and Keene will miss you and your backyard antics, jumping over them like a spring, showing them how fun outside can be. Hairy will miss being your little shadow, trying to be just like you, and I’m sure Trouble will be happy to be with his brother once again.
I am so grateful we were able to bring you home after your stay in the hospital for lots of love and cuddles and special treats. There will never be another that could fill those big mittens of yours.
Thank you to my beautiful wife you held him in her arms as he passed, just as he would like. Thank you to my lovely Mom who never fails to be there through our tough times. Thank you to Deanna for being such an amazing friend and learning how to give Squash his medications for when we were away.
May you suffer no longer. Rest in peace my little love bug you will forever be our special little angel. xox

Gus
Our hearts are deeply saddened by the news we received yesterday of our friend Gus's passing. We were fortunate enough to spend two and a half weeks with this gentle old soul back in July. We were always thrilled to see his adorable face patiently waiting for us as soon as we opened the door. This by far is the absolute toughest part of our job, saying goodbye to those we have come to love as our own. Rest in peace, sweet Gus. xo

Max
We are terribly saddened to learn that Max has received his angel wings yesterday. His Mom, Mandi, tells us he bravely fought with pancreatic disease, hyperthyroidism and at the end kidney failure. Unfortunately, his tired old body could just not fight anymore.
We feel so incredibly fortunate that we shared time with him over this past Christmas, and got to know his sweet old soul.
You will be sorely missed. Rest in peace, dear Max. xo

Molly
We are terribly sad to have learned today of Molly's passing on Tuesday morning. She had been recently diagnosed with a congenital heart problem, and then suddenly Tuesday morning, she experienced a sudden stroke. With her two loving parents present, within 15 minutes she was being examined by the doctor. Despite their quick reaction, there was nothing more the doctors could do for her.
Our hearts go out to Molly's family. Molly was a very lucky kitty to have such kind and loving parents, that cared so deeply for her, giving her the happiest life any kitty could ever ask for. Rest in paradise, little Molly. xo

Hairy
Our hearts are broken, as we had to say goodbye to our handsome Hairy muffin today. Our little family spent the morning with him, showering him with love and affection and his favourite thing in the whole wide world, treats. We will miss you terribly and your mild mannered sense of being, your beautiful face and super laid back personality. We will miss your fuzzy face sleeping on our faces and your little waddley bum. Rest in peace little man. You will be forever in our hearts. ❤️❤️ ❤️❤️

Jag
It's another sad day. We just learned that another one of our dear fur clients, has crossed that rainbow bridge. We had the opportunity to care for Jag on a few occasions, one of which occasions, was a couple of weeks long, so we became pretty good friends with this little guy. He took a while to warm up at first, but once he did he wanted as much love and attention that you were willing to give. Jag will be sorely missed by all of us at Little Paws. Rest in peace, darling Jag. xox

Jack
Our hearts are broken, learning of the loss of this sweet and gentle boy, Jack. Jack was one of our very first fur clients, as well as the first blind cat we had ever met. He was a pretty special boy, and we simply adored him. At first meeting he welcomed us into his home with open paws, and showed us just how possible it is to overcome any challenge that is put before us. We always looked forward when we were fortunate enough to spend time with Jack. It was always filled with lots of love and cuddles and drool :) We will miss you gentleman Jack. Rest in peace, sweetheart. 😥❤️ September 17, 2016
Jasper
We are incredibly saddened by the loss of our wee little angel, Jasper. We had to make the very difficult decision to let Jasper go peacefully, at 21 years old. Her diminishing health was just getting too much for her to handle. It doesn't matter how old the family pet is when we have to say goodbye, it doesn't make it any easier. Jasper was part of our family for 21 years, living with several family members depending on circumstances, but spending most of her adult life with my parents. Although we all loved and cared for her immensely, it was with my parents that she was treated like an absolute princess, hence her nickname Princess Jasper. She was definitely the most pampered kitty I have ever known in my entire life, with having an abundance of home cooked meals served to her, and catered to 24 hours a day. With a most gentle soul, she even became best friends with our rabbit Whiskers, where the two of them would spend countless hours cuddling.
No words can describe how much we will all miss our sweet angel. Rest in paradise little princess. ❌⭕️😥

We will miss this sweet little guy. Rest in peace, darling angel. xox

Lolly
After being left in a carrier on the bus, ten months ago Lolly came to us as a foster, to await her forever home. But once her health challenges became apparent, she stayed with us as a permanent resident of Ladybird. She started off a bit skittish, hiding under the bed in her room, and tolerating just a few pats. Once her meds kicked in and made her more comfortable, she came out of her shell and ate up the attention. It didn't take long for her to make herself comfortable amongst her much bigger brothers, head butting them out of the way to take their meals. After a few months, she was letting us pick her up and rock her like a baby on our shoulder. Every night she would climb up her kitty stairs onto our bed and plop down in her "graceful" style and curl up next to Brianne's hip, where she would spend much of the night. We were sad to learn her kidney disease had worsened to stage three, and devastated to learn she had developed carcinoma in her mouth. We were fortunate to have Lolly live out the rest of her days in our kitty retirement villa, providing her with lots of love and affection, time spent lounging on the back deck watching birds, and her favourite, eating as much as her little heart desired. This morning she was freed from her pain from her cancer, kidney disease, and spondylosis. We will miss her terribly, but we know it was time to let her go. Sleep peacefully our little Lolly. ❤️

Mikey
We had the pleasure of looking after this boy, Mikey and his sister Cici, on a few occasions. The last occasion, was for the purpose of Mikey's parents taking a trip the hospital to have a their very first wee human. During this very hectic time, Micky had quickly become very ill with the same carcinoma in his mouth, that our own rescue girl, Lolly, had developed during the same time period, so we felt compelled to help as much as we could. Although Mikey was being syringe fed at this time, we made sure he had as much fun as he was willing to have, which was quite a bit! He was still in fine spirits to enjoy some playtime with the Cat Dancer, and he also loved getting a few chin scritches and pats. Even though our time was short with Mikey, he will always be remembered with much adoration and love.

Archie
It was incredibly devastating to learn about Archie's passing yesterday. We cannot begin to describe the love we had for this sweet and handsome boy. We had the pleasure of looking after Archie and his sister Alice on a couple of occasions. The last occasion was twice a day for an entire month, so one can only imagine how attached you would become, spending this much time with such a sweet fellow. We will miss you terribly Archie, and your gentle nature and soft purrs.

Gus
A note from Gus's folks:
Hi Jill & Kate,
I’m writing with some very sad news. Yesterday, we made the incredibly difficult decision to put Gus down.
In recent weeks it became clear he wasn’t responding to his medications. Based on his symptoms and poor response to medications the vet suspects he had idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; an irreversible and ultimately fatal condition. In combination with his kidney disease, the challenges for Gus were increasing.
Right until the end, Gus was pain free, but his disease was exhausting him and we could see his quality of life decline.
Yesterday morning he crawled into bed and curled up with us like usual and purred away. It made it so much more difficult to let him go on a ‘good day’ but we know it was the best decision. He was able to go pain-free and with dignity. We held our big boy until the end.
Our hearts are broken and we are feeling quite empty. Gus was our sweet gentle giant. If he wasn’t in your lap or on your chest, he was finding his way into your arms while you slept.
I want to thank you both for all the care you gave him. Gus was the reason I reached out to Little Paws and I couldn’t be happier with the love and care you gave him.
Kate & Dan
Rest in peace dear Gus, you will be forever missed and forever in our hearts xo Jill & Kate

BAbou
We are incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of our
unique and precious friend Babou, this morning. Babou was one like no other, with his playful and wild ways. He will be sorely missed by his family, his caregiver Deanna and all of us at Little Paws. Babou will remain forever in our hearts. Rest in peace, sweet Babou. xo
A note from Babou's family:
Hi Deanna and Jill
Unfortunately I am writing with sad news today. Our little Babou passed away this morning after a brief and tough battle with cancer. He was diagnosed just a couple of weeks ago and there was nothing we could do except keep him comfortable and happy - which he was! As you know he was full of life and we loved him as much as we could. Deanna I know you cared about him too and showed it each time you were with him so I wanted to let you know.
Trevor and I are very sad, but glad he was at home and comfortable in his surroundings. We wish we would have had much more time with him, but thankful for the time we did share.
Thank you both for your support and care for Babou over the past.

BUGSY
Today, with great sadness, we have learned of the passing of our dear friend Bugsy, in his 21st year. Bugsy was a true gentleman, who enjoyed his naps in front of the warm fireplace and loved when his Greenies bowl was filled to the brim, topped with love. Bugsy will be greatly missed by all of us at Little Paws, and our hearts go out to Bugsy’s family during this extremely difficult time. Rest In Peace handsome, Bugsy. ❤️
A note from Bugsy’s family:
It is with heavy hearts and tears that we announce the passing of Bugsy, our beloved Cornish Rex cat of almost 21 years. He gave us many years of joy and friendship while asking nothing in return, well......except for the usual stuff a Cornish Rex cat demands.
Sarah, we would like to thank you personally for the great care that you extended to Bugsy, while you periodically cared for him during his last several years. It gave us great comfort to know that he was in good hands when we were not here.
He will be sadly missed.

LUCY
We are incredibly heartbroken to learn of sweet little Lucy’s passing today. Lucy had been recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder, which sent her health into a very quick decline. There are no words to express the sadness we feel for her family as they grieve the loss of their gorgeous girl, and at such a young age. Our deepest condolences go out to Lucy’s family. We feel very lucky to have spent a few weeks over Christmas getting to know her adorable little soul. Rest In Peace wee Lucy. You’ll be forever in our hearts. ❤️
A note from Lucy’s Mom:
It’s with a heavy heart I have to tell you that we had to say goodbye to our loved Lucy yesterday. She went very downhill very fast on Sunday. It was clear she was having trouble breathing and never really ate and continued to feed and hydrate her through the syringe feeding. I am so sorry I could not save her. Thank you for the love you poured into her during her much too short life. And thank you for everything you and Jill did to help me while she was ill. I need to particularly thank you for your words on Friday. Because she did tell me on Sunday that she was in pain and ready to go. She had not come out from the couch since Saturday evening (other that when I pulled her out for meds and feeding) and on Sunday she let me know. And as hard as it was I knew I had to act compassionately for her take away her pain and let her go. It has caused me pain and sadness to be without my girl but she has taught me so much about love and friendship and strength during her time with me. And I need to carry that with me.
Like I said I am so sorry to give you this sad news as I know you will miss her as I am almost every minute today but I’m so grateful Lucy got to love you and know your love and dedication to her.

A note from Rockets family:
Thank you for the kind words about our little boy. He had a good long life at 15.5 years old but unfortunately his illnesses got too severe for him to carry on any longer. We will miss him so much. He really was an amazing sweet boy. 💔
Thank you for your kindness during this difficult time. I know I am biased but he was the sweetest and cutest kitty in the entire world and we will miss him dearly 💔

We are absolutely gutted by the sudden passing of our dear friend, Ronaldo. We've been looking after this gentle old panda bear, since Little Paws was just new on the scene, so over the years, we had grown quite attached to this fellow, and it truly hurts like losing one of our very own. We send along our deepest condolences, to his Dad, and his fur brothers Charlie and Taz. He will be greatly missed by his family and all of us that had the pleasure of caring for Ronaldo during his time with Little Paws. Rest in Peace, handsome. xoxo

It is never easy saying goodbye to a friend like Sandy, but we are grateful to be given the opportunity by his Mom, to say our final farewell to this incredibly sweet natured boy. We enjoyed many long morning and sunset walks, greeting neighbours along the way, who stopped to say hello. Many visits, just cuddled up, enjoying each others company, sprinkled with yummy treats. The loss of Sandy is one of absolute heartbreak and his beautiful, funny smile will remain forever ingrained in our hearts and minds. We send all of our love to his Mom, during this very difficult time. Until we meet again, sweetheart. xoxo

We've had the pleasure of looking after this gentle soul for a couple of years, and had seen him blossom from a shy little flower, into a great pillar of love and affection. He will be greatly missed, and our hearts go out to his Mom and his brother Kobe, at this extremely difficult time. Until we meet again our beautiful friend, may you rest in peace. xoxox

A note from Kaos' Mom:
Hi Jill and Kate,
It is with unbearable sadness that I am letting you know that Kaos passed away this morning. He took ill suddenly over a week ago, diagnosed with advanced chronic kidney disease (which he hid very well) and after a week in hospital with no signs of improvement, I said my ‘goodbye’ today.
Kobe and I are both heartbroken as he was such a special boy and brought so much love and fun to our home. Kobe is missing his brother terribly so I am trying to spend as much time with him as I can.
I will work through my grief and my focus next will be on finding a great new brother for Kobe.
I want to thank you for taking such good care of Kaos when I was away – I know he loved both of you. And you left me with such good memories of him through your pics, videos and the keychain and fridge magnet.
Will keep you posted on any additions to the family.
Please keep Kaos in your thoughts today.

EMMY
We are heartbroken over the recent loss of our sweet dear, beautiful friend, Emmy. We always enjoyed our visits with this little old gal, making sure she received her meds, along with spoiling her with new toys and lots of pats, while her parents were away. Each of our visits ended the same way, with Emmy falling asleep in her bed, being showered with love. All of our fur friends, hold a special place in our hearts, and is never easy when we receive the news of their passing. We send all of our love to her family, while they mourn the loss of their baby girl. Emmy will always be remembered dearly. Rest peacefully, sweet Emmy. ❤️💗❤️

Just a few days shy of his 21st birthday, our dear friend, Cedric, passed away. We had the pleasure of spending time with this darling old fella, spoiling him with toys and treats. Cedric was a gentle boy, who enjoyed telling you about his day, with his strong loud voice. Cedric was deeply cared for and if love could have saved him, he would've lived for an eternity. Our hearts are with his Mom, as she mourns the loss of her precious boy. May you rest in peace, handsome Cedric. <3

FRANK
Today, our little buddy Frank the hamster passed away. He lived to the ripe old age of 3, which is pretty outstanding for a hamster! Frank was spoiled by his Grandma Penny, with fresh fruit and vegetables, and even some scrambled eggs as a treat. He loved to roll around in his little orange ball, always ending up in his favourite spot, in the corner of the bathroom! Last summer, Frank made a Houdini-like escape from his cage and managed to make a fort underneath the corner of a piece of furniture in a bedroom upstairs, gathering tissue he found and there he remained for the weekend, only to be finally found on the third day. Frank was then upgraded from his little cage he came with, to a giant rat cage with ramps and hammocks, which must've seemed like a mansion to such a little guy. Frank was such an adorable little guy who will be greatly missed by all of us. Rest in peace, sweet Frank. <3 xo

We received some more heartbreaking news yesterday. We learned that our beautiful friend Maggie, passed away. Maggie was a lovely girl to spend time with, along with her brother Thomas, over the past couple of years. On one of our more recent visits with Maggie, we had the pleasure of showing her the great outdoors, letting her explore the wonders and smells of her front porch and garden, which she thoroughly enjoyed. You will be sorely missed sweet girl. Our hearts are broken for Maggie's family. Rest in peace, beautiful, Maggie. xoxo

BUDDY
The absolute toughest and worst part of our job is having to say goodbye to our very special fur friends, that we have grown so close to. Despite everyone's efforts, starting with his parents, to his sitters and doctors, Buddy's declining health was just too much for his little body to handle. Fortunately, due to the fast acting decision of Buddy's sitter and team work, we were able to rush Buddy to his doctors', who were able to keep him stable and comfortable until his parents were able to make it back from their business trip, to bring him home for one final night before saying their last goodbyes, in the comfort of their home. We will miss this gentle, loving boy more than words can say. Our thoughts are with his parents and hope that time and wonderful memories, help heal their hearts. Rest in peace sweetheart. We will see you on the other side. xoxo
