Dog: Nunzio (Mastiff / Lab / Boxer / Rottweiler) – Edmonton, Alberta
(May 5, 1994 – Jan 25, 2012)
Our dog passed away January 25, 2012 after a developing cancer in the spleen. He was strong and sweet until he simply couldn’t walk anymore and the vet said it was his time.
Nunzio ‘Maddog’ McDonnell was a blend of Mastiff, Lab, Boxer, and Rottweiler. We got him as a pup, all fat and wrinkly. That was 8 years ago and during those years we grew to love him like no other. He was smart, strong, stubborn and sweet, with a friendly, lovable disposition. His big size and beautiful brindle coat make kids love him and Nunzio loved them right back.

Cat: Calleach – Gailes, Brisbane, Australia (Died Jan 25, 2012)
It’s been only a day since the passing of my beloved companion Calleach (pronounced Carly), named after the Celtic Goddess. She was a gift from a friend when only 6 weeks old and finally died aged 18 years and so time has come to say a reluctant farewell to a much loved companion.
She is sorely missed and survived by 2 daughters still in my company. She was definitely strong willed and took no guff from anyone. Not even the dog that robbed her of one of her eyes years ago. She was also a very loyal companion and totally trusting in me and those I was trusting in.

Dog: Ellie (Dalmatian) – Canandaigua, NY (Sep 15, 1996 – Dec 29, 2011)
It’s been about 24 hours since our beloved dog has moved on. The house is very quite despite our six and eight year daughters.
The time has come for us to say good-bye to a family member who we lived and shared our life with for over fifteen years. Ellie was three and a half months old when we got her from Dalmatian Rescue in Rochester, New York.
She was with six or seven of her brothers and sisters. I whistled, and she came right over. I knew she was the one. Looking back, I guess she picked us. Over the years, Ellie has been a great dog who loved everyone she came in contact with.

Mr Magoo got along with everyone and especially loved playing on the beach.
He could go from very quiet to full out wild.

Cat: Mocha (Snow Shoe) – Wilsonville, OR (1998 – Dec 24, 2011)
Mocha was just a kitten when he was found under someone’s air vent under their house. The founder took him door to door asking if he was theirs. My dad fell in love with him, an adorable little tyke with a white underbelly and black raccoon mask with light colored fur that eventually darkened as he got older.
We took him in immediately where my dad came up with the name, Mocha for his colored fur mixture was like the drink. That was 1998, nearly 14 years ago.
Over those 13 and a half years, Mocha had gotten into a fair share of troubles, one night coming home after escaping outside, only I to look for him, nearly giving up and praying to god he’d return safe with his companion Latte’, another kitten we had found that same day as he.

Dog: Spencer (Cocker Spaniel) – Lehighton, PA
You were only in our lives for 2 years. I remember picking you up at the pound, you looked horrible. But you were so grateful for our love and you gave us unconditional love.
We don’t know where you came from and who you were with for most of your life. But sure was glad to have you with us!
We miss you dearly!
Mom and dad

Cat: London (Tabby) – Lehighton, PA (1992 – 2011)
London …. your lovely coat, your ability to adapt to different houses as you moved and therefore make the new home home, your attitude of composure, the way you found a niche and was comfortable in it, the way you adapted to life with gasp dogs, you ability to adjust to your changing circumstances living upstairs or down, the way you integrated yourself into life with children, life with a couple, visiting children, your air of dignity, your enjoyment of the sunlight.
The tenth good thing about London was the love that he inspired. That is his legacy. London, you will always be in our hearts!

Cat: Zoey (Domestic Shorthair Tuxedo) – Brooklyn, NY
(1990 – Dec 1, 2011)
Zoey the cat, who witnessed the fall of apartheid and the rise of Occupy Wall Street, and who weathered countless airplane, car, subway and bus trips as she traveled across Africa and the United States, died at her Brooklyn home Dec. 1 after a short illness. She was at least 21 years old.
Zoey was born in South Africa, about the same time Nelson Mandela was released from prison, and was a reflection of her homeland: mainly black, with some white; stoic and resilient in the midst of upheaval; a bit battered but beautiful.
Like her adoptive caretaker, she survived countless close calls as she adapted to the whims of various news organizations. She was abducted by wild dogs in West Africa; held hostage by corrupt customs agents in Ivory Coast; threatened with deportation by airport officials in South Africa; confronted by ice-pick wielding burglars in Johannesburg; hit by at least one car; forced to do battle with rabid rodents, reptiles and large winged insects; and struck by several mysterious illnesses in sub-Saharan Africa. In New York, she endured a tornado, a hurricane, and an earthquake.
