In Loving Memory |
Along with new puppies and kittens, each year brings the loss of some of our old friends. Their memories bring us tears and laughter and will stay in our hearts forever. If you would like your pet to appear here, please send us a photo and a short writeup. |

Miss Kitty 1988 (?) to August 2001 Loved and missed by the Edgewood Animal Clinic Staff
|
|
Miss Kitty showed up one day and never left. She was one of the clinic cats that I inherited when I bought the practice. After we computerized, she didn’t like the front desk much and spent most of her day in my office just waiting for a chance to ambush one of the dogs (her greatest delight). We lost Miss Kitty after a short battle with lymphoma. I still miss her when I work in my office at night. |
|
“Phinneas T. Cat” May 1986– January 18, 2005 Phinnie nearly made it to 19 years old, but after battling his chronic sinus problems for years he finally succumbed to liver cancer. He was the first pet I had when living on my own, and my “practice patient” all through vet school. I know he and Levi are wrestling together again somewhere. |
|
“Tycho” Hayes June 1993- April 3 2006 Tycho belonged to our assistant Amy and spent the past year or two of his life coming to work so she could manage his chronic health issues (immune mediated thrombocytopenia, diabetes, and complications resulting from treatment of these conditions). Many clients miss our “bearskin rug”! |
|
“Simba” Golatzki 2004-Oct 2, 2006 One morning we came to work and found a little orange kitten tied to the front door. We lost Simba this fall to a sudden progression of his chronic kidney disease. He is sadly missed by his best buddy HoppyCat. |
|
“Boo” Golatzki 1997-2006 Boo was Dr Golatzki’s parents’ cat whom we lost very unexpectedly this spring to an aortic thrombus. Boo was a very special, lovable cat...except when he came to the clinic when he turned into a holy terror! |

Pars Jesse James Rides Again UDX2 RA JH AX NAP MXJ NJP Loved and missed by Patti Bergen (10/95-12/06) JJ spent many days at our office during the years Patti worked as a receptionist. He was truly a once in a lifetime dog for Patti. JJ was one of our “cradle to grave” patients and we will always remember his sweet temperament and cold nose! Patti went to be with JJ in 2011 and I know he was waiting for her. |

Geno Vom Mika Ashmead VCD-1 TDX OAJ OPJ August 2000-October 2006 Loved and missed by Charlene Reese |

We lost Katie on October 13 2004. Katie is missed by Dan and Sue Brady and their family. Katie was one of the “original” patients when Dr. Golatzki bought the practice in 1991. |

Grouch Jan 1995-Dec 2009 Loved and missed by the Edgewood Animal Clinic staff
|
|
GROUCH was a full time clinic resident. He originally belonged to technician Pam Schussel who moved to England with her family. Rather than go through six months of quarantine Grouch came to live with us in 1997. Grouch ruled the clinic (and no, he’s not named for his personality, but for his resemblance to Oscar the Grouch! We lost Grouch 12/09 and miss him terribly. He had a personality like no other. For his page click here. |

Andy Devoncroft Pocket Rocket CDX RN HT OA OAJ NF June 17, 1997-Feb 12, 2009
Andy was Dr. Golatzki’s “heart” dog; he came to work daily and never found an activity he didn’t love. Andy passed away suddenly two days before what was to be his retirement run in agility. Thankfully his son and grandson are still here with us. Click here for Andy’s page and here for his tribute on my blog. |
|
Hoppy Cat Hoppy came to the clinic the victim of a fanbelt and lost one of his front legs and part of a lip to gangrene. Though he was not beautiful, he was terribly sweet and lived out the rest of his life at Dr. Golatzki’s house. He and his buddy Simba spent most of their lives together. |

“Harley” Golatzki April 21, 1998– May 10, 2011
Harley was Dr. Golatzki’s parents’ dog. He was a great dog and good buddy to Cory and Robbie. You can see more about Harley by clicking HERE for his tribute page. |
