Our cat, Patches, left this world on January 3.
Patches came back home yesterday.
We drove to the veterinary hospital yesterday afternoon and picked up her ashes.
This is Patches’ final resting place.
The raccoon was her favorite toy.
We will never forget you, Patches. You left paw prints on our hearts.

What a nice remembrance!
We so fall in love with our pets. You have a great memorial there. 😑
Hello, sweet tribute to your Patches! She will always be with you.
I agree with seniorhiker.
That’s very nice and now Patches will be always be near to you, safely at home with those who she loved dearly. We have the ashes of our last 5 pets but just in plain small boxes as I never did find a vessel that I thought was appropriate for them. The only one we sprinkled the ashes of was our big dog Dobie as he loved being outdoors the most so it seemed right for him to be in the yard and every spring blue crocus appear there that I didn’t plant! Another one of our dogs Fluffy loved being outside, he had wanderlust so perhaps he should have been outside and free to wander. For some reason we never could bring ourselves to sprinkle his ashes but just might set him free sometime soon. Our Jodi is indoors as she liked being indoors with her quack quack toy. All of our cats are indoors as we believe that’s the only place cats are truly safe.
There are times I would give anything I own to have some of our pets back…they love us unconditionally and are happy with us no matter what.
Im so sorry for your loss! >3
Oh no, I am so very sorry to hear about Patches Linda. This is a very touching memorial. May the memories and all the joy she gave you bring you some peace. Sending you a big hug.
Hi, I think that is AWESOME…. Patches is “home” …. You will enjoy Patches and all of the memories FOREVER… Blessings to you two as you grieve –and yet find joy through the grief…
Hugs,
Betsy
