🐾 In loving memory of Pocket the Bulldog 🐾

Utterly devastated ….
14 years ….
The longest I’ve ever had a dog, the closest bond I’ve ever had with an animal, & so healthy most her life, until arthritis creeped in.
I use to think people who called animals their soul mates were silly. Ugh, I’ll eat those words, because my soul did everything I could to keep her soul here as long as I could, if she wanted to be. She had such a huge will to live. But when she left, she took a piece of my soul with her, because she knew I got to keep a piece of hers.

Loss is never easy. In fact, you can prepare for it for years, know it’s coming, & it’s still not what you expect. It may not feel fair, in fact it’s not fair at all…. Being heartbroken is an essential part of growth, unfortunately. And I have zero regrets of being the best mom I could be to this precious little soul. I seen Jesus perform miracles in this little stinker for several years.
Librela & Adequan were a lifesaver & helped her quality by far! She refused to potty on the floor, up to her very last breath she made sure she was a “big girl” & it took every bit of her Will she had left.

She suffered not. As she seemed happy to see me walk in the door, eager to have a snack, seconds later she walked out to porch to her favorite spot to lay on her fuzzy blanket & watch the birds in the sunshine, where she instantly met Jesus’ arms to carry her home. 🙏🏽
We are not sure what happened, but that little OverAchiever gave me 14 yrs & 3 months…. And she deserves to go home to heaven & run in a new body, & be her sassy little self….. as long as she is sitting on the porch one day watching birds, when He comes to get me 🩵🩷

See you again one day Pocket !!
💗 you Bunches — Melanie

❤️ In Loving Memory of Samson ❤️

Samson came into this world as a tiny baby in May of 2010. I got him in July. We first thought he was a girl and mistakenly named him Molly. Whoops! Samson was a fittingly ironic name as Samson was big and strong in the Bible! Samson the kitty could fit in the palm of your hand, he was so tiny! He was a bit of a handful growing up and getting into things. He was definitely a curious cat! He ruled the roost and was the man of the house. He was 3 years old when Justin (Samson’s daddy)came into the picture. He was hesitant at first. “I’m the only man in this house!” As time went on Samson began to love Justin and one day started to cuddle with him too! “I guess he’s alright” he said haha! Years later and Justin was his BFF. Samson was known for his big cuddles and nose kisses (licks)! Not a day went by where he wouldn’t follow you into a room where he thought you might be laying down because he wanted to be with you or near you. Especially his momma (me)! He knew when I was sad or sick and he would plop right down and cuddle with me. He loved head rubs, back rubs, belly rubs, but boy he did NOT enjoy getting those nails clipped but he would handle it like a champ!

He got a little brother in 2018 when Rocky was 1 year old. He wasn’t too happy about having to handle a brother but soon learned to enjoy the company and the two began to play and wrestle every single day! Rocky brought out the young kitten in Samson. They became best friends for years. Shared the same food, cuddled together, always in the same room together. Best friends.

It wasn’t until March 2025 we found out all at once Samson had a stage 5 out of 5 heart murmur and late stage kidney failure. We were devastated but knew we would treasure every moment we had. We didn’t know if he’d make it to 15 but he made it and surpassed his 15th birthday. He left this world on May 27th. We knew a peaceful passing was the best option and the night before, we had a cuddle session with a lots of lovins! We are thankful to you for helping us commemorate his memory with his ashes and paw print. He will be forever remembered. He came into this world as a tiny Samson and left this world a strong one, fighting until the end. 🥹❤️

In Loving Memory of Rudy Mae

My best girl, my sunshine, my heart.

Rudy Mae came into my life as a rescue puppy, but from the very beginning, it was clear that she was the one doing the rescuing. We grew up together—she’s been with me through every season of adulthood, every joy, and every heartbreak. I graduated high school the year she arrived, and I haven’t lived a single day of my adult life without her beside me. Until now.

Rudy wasn’t just a good dog—she was the best. She was gentle and sweet, with a heart so big it seemed to spill out of her in everything she did. She adored people, kids, cats, sunshine, treats, and her daily “turtle walks” to the pond with her other mom, Rachel. She had her own little stubborn streak, but she was so incredibly smart and full of personality. People always asked me how I got her to be so amazing, but the truth is—she just was. That’s who Rudy Mae was at her core: a once-in-a-lifetime soul.

She made us laugh even on our darkest days. She gave me reasons to get up, to keep going, to smile when smiling felt impossible. Her snoring was the soundtrack of my nights, her joy the rhythm of my days. I don’t know how I’ll fall asleep without her, or how I’ll move through the world without her steady presence by my side. She was my best friend. My constant. My home.

Rudy Mae, thank you for every cuddle, every goofy moment, every walk, and every ounce of love you gave so freely. Thank you for saving me a thousand times over. We will love you forever, and miss you with every part of us.

Rest easy, sweet girl. I hope the sun is warm, the treats are endless, and there are turtles everywhere
