Chance Nichols

In loving remembrance of Chance, my beloved baby boy – the wonder cat, my magical panther – who brought fifteen years of joy, comfort, and unconditional love into my life. He came to his forever home on December 19, 2010, a tiny little thing “no bigger than a green bean,” wearing a small black bow tie and stealing my heart instantly.
Chance grew into the best cat I could have ever asked for. He loved curling up beside me while I read or watched TV, and those quiet moments together were my absolute favorite. He spent countless hours looking out the glass doors at the countryside, keeping careful watch over his world. If another cat dared enter his backyard, it was “code red,” and he would race from window to window in determined patrol. He was always sweet and loving, and he had a habit of placing his paw on my chest when I held him – a gesture that left me with many torn shirts but a full heart.
Chance passed away on October 27, 2025, after a brave battle with cancer. I chose to have him laid to rest at Ferncliff Cemetery so he would be surrounded by peaceful beauty and have a permanent monument showing the world what a special soul he was. He was my constant companion, my comfort, and my best friend. I loved him to the moon and back, and always will.
There is a space in my life and in my heart that will always belong to him. His love was unconditional, as my love is for him. Chance will be forever remembered, forever missed, and forever loved.
