In Loving Memory of Yuki❤️
Yuki was a true King - gentle, charming, and full of heart. He ruled his world with warmth and affection, offering his famous paw of love to all who came near. Whether basking in a sunbeam, sneaking a bite of chicken or a homemade cookie, or squeezing into a too-small box, Yuki filled every moment with joy. His light lives on in every ray of sunshine and loving memory he left behind.
Rest peacefully sweet boy❤️🐾🌈
The loving words below were shared by Yuki’s devoted family in his memory.

“In Loving Memory of Yuki.
He always loved boxes and tried to go in all of them even when he couldn’t fit. He was a gentleman of a cat and would never steal food, except for chicken and homemade cookies. If you came up to give him a pat while he was sleeping, he would extend an infamous paw of love to you. He really liked the yeow cat toys. He wanted to be a part of everything and would often rub his scent on your pencil or pen when writing or sprawl out on an ongoing board game. He was friendly to everyone and could have gotten an award for ‘World’s Best Greeter’. He loved going outside to smell things and scratch on his favorite tree. He would always greet you with purrs and blinkies and would cheer you up if you had a hard day. He had a love for flowers, vegetables, and pineapples. He loved to sprawl out in the sun and almost always had a big smile on his face. He is missed greatly and will always be the King of the Universe. May he have sun to lie in, cookies and chicken to eat, flowers, and a lovely view wherever he may be.”

In loving memory of Sadie🩷

Some souls are simply meant to find us
- and Sadie was one of them. From a last-minute rescue to a life overflowing with love and adventure, she embraced every moment with joy. She was happiest out on the water, cruising in her little life jacket and soaking up the sunshine on the boat. Sadie’s sweet spirit and boundless heart brought light to everyone who knew her. She will be forever cherished and deeply missed.
Rest peacefully Sadie🩷🐾🌈
The heartfelt words shared below by her devoted family are a beautiful tribute to the love and life she inspired.

“One night when I couldn’t sleep I was scrolling Facebook and I saw a post from a rescue group in California. The post said the rescue had until noon the next day to pick up 4 chihuahuas or they would be euthanized. I impulsively said I will adopt Sadie!! 5 days later and 3 hours before Sadie’s flight was going to land in Victoria I sent my husband an “we need to talk” text. It was love at first sight when we picked her up. Sadie was up for anything! She loved boating, kayaking, swimming, and her favorite place to go was Sidney Spit. Sadie was so sweet and affectionate and everyone loved her. We are devastated she’s gone but so thankful we got to love and care for her for the last 11 years. Thank you so much Resting Paws for helping Sadie pass in my arms surrounded by love.”

In loving memory of Stella❤️

Stella’s journey was one of courage, grace, and second and third chances. From hardship to a life overflowing with love, she touched every heart she met with her gentle spirit and soulful brown eyes. Her story reminds us that healing is possible - and that every being deserves to be cherished, safe, and home.
Rest peacefully sweet girl ❤️🐾🌈
Stella’s incredibly devoted family share these touching words in her memory:

“Stella had the worst of this world and the best of this world..Born in Mexico, she got lucky and found her way to Vancouver Island (probably because of her gorgeous brown eyes!), only to find neglect and abuse here. Luckily, she got another chance at a good life when Karen, her wonderful foster mom saved her and brought a village to help Stella back. She was broken beyond words. But with great help like Ron’s last chance rescue and Karen, Stella started trusting the world again. It helped that Stella always wanted to love people... And food!
Stella found her happiness at her third go around. She came to visit us for a “three hour tour”, and it was love on the spot. She never left our home. She had an amazing 7 years with us and her little brother - also from Mexico - filled with lots of love, comfy beds (she was partial for down duvets), good food, tons of exercise and off leash adventures.
 
Stella was so gorgeous, with her long stiletto legs, and her brown eyes that reflected the soul of the world. She was an amazing friend, always at my side - my shadow. She won countless hearts with her sweet and gentle demeanor.

She will forever be missed by us, many friends and neighbours and Sparky, her very own therapy dog who did an amazing job at showing her that the world is a good place after all.

Rest in peace my sweet girl, you will always be in our hearts.”

In loving memory of Shelby❤️

There’s a certain kind of magic in a dog who moves through life with the soul of a cat - graceful, independent, yet endlessly affectionate. Shelby was that rare and gentle spirit. Whether curled up in her favorite chair or nestled quietly in a lap, she brought comfort and calm to every heart around her. Celebrated in her birthday hat at fifteen, she embodied love in its purest form — steady, loyal, and full of quiet joy.
Rest peacefully sweet girl.❤️🐾🌈
Her devoted family shares these touching words in her memory:

“Shelby is missed beyond measure in our home. She was coined a “cat” dog by her aunt as she loved to be curled up on a chair or snuggled into someones lap. She adored her cousin Ava and appreciated her puppy play keeping her young in her senior years. Shelby stole my whole heart (and chair most days) and I will cherish the memories we had together. I love you Shelby Rae, thank you for being my little love for 15 years.”

Rest peacefully sweet boy ❤️🐾🌈
His devoted mom shares this heartfelt tribute in his honour:

“Charlie was the most handsome boy and kept me strong through so much heartbreak. From breakups to losing loved ones he was there by my side to give me a look of love and comfort. We often communicated by longing blinks to convey the love we both know we had for so deeply for each other. I will always keep him in my heart, and will never stop talking about him. I love you my beautiful boy.”

“♥️ In Loving Memory of Our Sweet Wally ❤️
beloved Wally lived a wonderful 14 and a half years, full of love, adventure, and so many happy moments. Wally brought us so much joy and laughter every single day.

We’ll miss his little paws following us around, his happy tail wags to greet us at the door, laying on the kitchen floor trying to catch food crumbs and the way he always made everything feel a little brighter.

Thank you for being our best boy, Wally. You gave us your whole heart, and we’ll carry your love with us always. ❤️🐾”

In loving memory of Dandy❤️

Sweet Dandy was a gentle giant with an even bigger heart. Dandy was an integral part of a great love story. So much so, that the night before he left this world, his dad proposed to his mom - a moment carefully timed so their beloved boy could be there, offering his quiet, unconditional blessing in the way only he could. His presence, his love, and his spirit were woven into every heartbeat of that night. 💍❤️
Rest peacefully sweet boy 🐾🌈❤️ We were so honoured to meet you.
Below, his deeply devoted parents honor and celebrate the life of their gentle giant and their forever love, Dandy:

“Dandy was the first born of his litter on May 17 2017 and passed October 18th 2025. He truly lived  up to his name, he was a handsome, goofy, loving fellow. As a clutzy gentle giant he loved to cuddle up to near everyone who sat down with him. If he wasn’t snoozing he was sniffing, his walks always consisted of letting him follow his nose. He loved frozen mango, cucumbers, carrots, peanut butter and chicken strips. He leaves behind his littermate Cru and best friend Honeybun. He joins his mum Ruby and former pals Jaida, Timmy, Mac, Candy & Monty across the rainbow bridge, where we like to believe is a giant farm where they can eat and play. Dandy was silly, lovey and our first son. He changed our lives positively forever. Im so grateful we got to care for and love him while he was here. Thank you for being there when my partner proposed the day before you left Earth, it meant everything to me for you to be there and give my ring a good luck kiss and have your Dandy blessing.

Rest easy our darling Pisces Sun
Your parents, Pisces Moon and Pisces Rising”

Ten years wasn’t enough time, but we are endlessly grateful that we were able to give you a loving home for your golden years. We will forever miss your counter surfing, late night yowling, and most of all the cuddles on the couch in the heart of winter. I expect I will compare every cat I have the chance to meet to you for the rest of my life. You really were the perfect guy. We love you, Sophie.”

In Loving Memory of Mara❤️

Mara was the heartbeat of her home - a noble German Shepherd whose presence brought warmth, safety, and love to every moment. She grew up alongside her family, through all the firsts - first steps, first days of school, first adventures - always watching over with wise, loyal eyes.

She was more than a companion; she was a guardian of hearts. Through joy and through tears, she was always there - steady, gentle, and endlessly devoted. Her family’s bond with her ran deep, and her love will forever echo within the walls of their home and the hearts she helped shape.

Rest well, sweet Mara. You will always be remembered as the soul of your family - their protector, their comfort, their forever girl. 🐾🌈
