Ciro Amore came into my home as a 2 month old kitten in December of 2005. He was more to me than a pet; he was my son, he was my shadow, he was my rock when life made me sad.
The joy he brought into my life was immense and too large for me to describe in this little box. And the joy and laughter he gave to his Facebook followers makes me happy and will always rest in my heart.
We had our early morning rituals (he sat by my feet most weekdays while I made up to go to work), and our weekend rituals (early morning each Saturday & Sunday at the computer, with he and my cup of coffee), which is when I miss him the most, and the void is overwhelming.
He was a sweet lil’boy, affectionate, playful, smart (he knew both Engish & Italian!) and was such a happy cat – even through most of the 5 years he was ill. To say he was a trooper through his ill years doesn’t do him justice – he was a Superhero!!
He loved to dance, and I made sure we danced with him in my arms most of the day of his passage, which made him purr endlessly. I played his song “A Kiss to Build a Dream On” while he was going into his forever sleep and told him over and over again how much he meant to me. He went peacefully, knowing he was loved and adored – I wouldn’t have had it any other way!
My heart is breaking, because I miss him so very much. Yet at the same time, I have peace inside knowing now he has crossed The Rainbow Bridge and he no longer feels pain. He, too, is finally in peace.
You will always be my favorite little furbaby. Mamma loves you to the moon and back, my sweet little boy. We will always have “our” song… A Kiss to Build a Dream On… and when I hear it, I will lovingly think of you!
— Mamma
Poppys name sake. I also loved you and will always remember you sitting on my lap. It took awhile for you to get close to me but you finally did and I’ll miss petting you.
— Poppy and Nanny
You will be missed tremendously. You brought so much love to your momma and sister, Bella. You will live on in our memories.

In quelle 2 settimane mi sono affezionata tanto a Ciro Amore che è stato un piccolo amico affettuoso e discreto. Ricordo di come si metteva silenzioso accanto a me mentre dormivo dopo che Rosa andava al lavoro. Sguardo dolcissimo e nonostante stesse male non si lentava mai. Ciao Ciro, rip, sei nei miei pensieri

God not only brings people into our lives for a reason, he brings our pets into our lives for a reason. I truly believe that we do not choose our pets, they choose us. Ciro Amore choose you, because he felt all the love you had to give him. He was very lucky to have you as his mamma. He definitely made the right choice.

A candle was lit in memory of Ciro Amore. He will always be a shining light in your life just in a different way. So sorry as I know firsthand the heartbreak of losing a beloved pet.

My sweet little boy… Mamma had a very emotional evening last night. I brought you home, but it was not the same as when I brought you home so many years ago. Friends Forever Pet Crematory did a beautiful job in caring for your journey. Your ashes came in a beautiful wooden box, and they were lovingly placed in a beautiful black velvet bag inside the box. There is the Rainbow Bridge Story, your Cremation Certificate, a small card with a heart on it that contains wildflower seeds for planting – which I will tear in half so Mamma can plant some at home and Poppy can plant the other half when we bury you this Spring. They even included a copy of your paw print which made Mamma cry. So other than my most sweetest memories of you, this is all that remains now… my heart is aching all over again…though now that you, my baby are home, I can begin to go forward and live a happy life just as you did all your 12 years in my life. I love you, my beautiful baby boy. I thank God you will forever be in peace now. And remember, you will be safely locked deep inside of my heart forever.
— Mamma
I miss you, my little Angel!
