Raven Spirit Lopez — June 10, 1997 - August 4, 2009
Raven, our Portuguese Water Dog, became part of our family when she was 6 months old, and left this earth after 13 years of devotion to us, our three cats, the dogs she out lived, cookies, car rides and the ocean — in that order. She asked only to be with us as much as possible. She went gently and peacefully. We love her and miss her and always will.

Champagne — 1991 - 2008
Champagne, also known as "Champ," made a family of four very happy for many years,
"helping" two kids grow up from fourth grade to college. Champ got along well with her three sister
kitties, had a wonderfully sweet disposition, and offered never-ending affection to her people.
She loved more than anything to drink water from a dripping faucet...and to sleep on my bed.
She was, quite simply, the best kitty.

Mr. Kitty — 1995 - 2008
Mr. Kitty has had a full life, in many homes. He came to live with us in August '07 when no one was found who could give him a tiny insulin shot every day. He was a 13-year-old diabetic kitty.
This big boy turned out to be Mr. Personality Plus. He had a silent miouw — he would just walk to me at my desk chair, put his front paws on my leg, and open his mouth — no sound — and plainly say "pick me up; I want to sit in your lap." Ooooh a genuine lapcat! Several times a day he would do this. I was totally spoiled.
This big guy, whom I was privileged to know for only six months before he died, left a large hole in our hearts — our vets and previous families have known him much longer.
