Name of Deceased: Pecan Harvey

Memorial Message:

In remembrance of the little stray cat who greeted us morning and night at the Residence Inn Houston Texas. Team Mixed Nuts unofficial mascot. He made all the guests at the hotel happy. He loved turkey, bacon and breakfast sausage. He would curl up in our laps and fall asleep and purr. I loved the way he looked at everyone's hands when they walked past him- looking for food. The hotel staff loved him and folks on our work team made sure he had a water bowl, fresh water, food daily and even a toy. We also ensured he was properly laid to rest. This little cat was a treasure to many whom were working in Houston far away from home for an extended length of time- many of us whom were missing our own pets back home. We enjoyed his affection and I believe he enjoyed us in return. Likely a stray aa a result of Hurricane Harvey, he had too short of a life and likely never knew what it was like to live inside, be well fed, and loved by a family. Regardless, we all loved him. A donation will be made in his memory so the future of other stray and feral cats can experience better circumstances and no tragic endings like Pecan had. We loved you Pecan and we will always remember you fondly.

We fondly remember Tiberius, an adventurous lover of the outdoors, often captured mid-nap. He was a true friend to John and Heidi, his loving guardians. While we wish he had lived longer, he certainly lived well and prospered. May we all boldly go as he always did.

Name of Deceased: Echo

Memorial Message:

In tribute to sweet Echo, 1996-2017. Her human mom (the best ever mom a cat could have) says that "She was the last of the 4 kittens that my late brother talked me into adopting so many years ago. I lost my brother in 2005 so these 4 cats were always extra special to me after that. She had such a gentle, loving presence. I will miss her so much." Echo's kitty house mates will miss her too, especially Stella (pictured above). Wishing love and comfort to her mom and mates. Rest in Peace, Sweet Echo.

Name of Deceased: Ariella

Memorial Message:

Ari was my first rescue 14+ years ago. She was only with me for a short time and then went to live with my parents when I was moved overseas. As a kitten the shelter thinks she was thrown from a moving vehicle and was nearly starved to death when they found her. She had to be dropper fed, and never really grew to adult size. She also had feline herpes from the day I adopted her (wasn't diagnosed until a few months after she came home), and so needed treatments. Despite all this she lived to over 14 years and made two households a happier, furrier place. She was one of the most affectionate, gentle cats I've ever known.

Memorial Message:

My gorgeous spunky polydactyl girl! How I miss those stunning green eyes and that snowy white belly---and that tongue that never wanted to stay inside your mouth while you slept. Not a day goes by that I don't miss you, my angel. You were the one who never left my side when I was sad or ill...I think it was truly you who rescued ME. I love you, baby girl...

Name of Deceased: Maude - she came from the street instead of the alley like her feline housemates.

Memorial Message:

She believed the world – and everything in it – was good.
She greeted everyone who came to her house.
She was never scared – because, what was there to be scared of?
She climbed on all laps and settled in.
She could yell like a wounded mourning dove mating with a foghorn
But only when she wanted a human to notice.
She was more sweet than smart
And, sometimes, we need sweet more than smart.
If you asked her, she would say there was one thing about the universe
That was not perfect:
It has cats other than her in it.

Name of Deceased: Thad Graham

Memorial Message:

In loving memory of Thad Graham, whose love of and dedication to cats was truly infectious. Thad adopted countless DC cats and cared for many more neighborhood feral cats. Nothing pleased him more than winning over cats and forming relationships with them. To know Thad was to know his cats and their stories – from the miracle of Cutie Pie to the crazy antics of MJ. He loved playing with them – often sacrificing his shoelaces for their enjoyment – and told countless stories about them with obvious affection.

His love for cats turned many others, including me, into cat people. His encouragement for me to adopt a cat has changed my life forever; I am so grateful for that. He loved my cat like his own and was always willing to care for her, even if she never would sit on his lap (to his extreme frustration).

Thad brought new life to so many cats – we will always remember Thad’s love for his cats and their love for him. We all greatly miss him.
