Penny Degenhardt
2013-January 27th 2023
Penny was found when she was somewhere between 6 to 8 weeks old, cold, sick, and covered in fleas, beside the road. She had a fun sweet personality from the start. Never held a grudge about her rough start in life but truly appreciated her home and family so very much. Her best friend was her beloved Leonard, who had an equally hard start in life. Together they terrorized our home with their big personalities and need for speed. They were 100 mph from morning till night. Penny was my husband's sidekick on projects in the yard and garage. She designated herself the protector of the chickens and hater of all German Shepherds as they upset her chickens. She rid all of Winnebago county of moles and entertained the local field mice, keeping them well fed with the dry cat food she hated and refused to eat. She always greeted us at the door with her quiet little meow and a big stretch up our legs. Her quiet presence has left a big void in our home and she will be greatly missed.

Zoey, age 17 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on August 22nd, 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. There is so much to say about my Zozo, all of her memories are my favorite. She loved riding in the car; she would always sit up and look out the window any chance she got. She always knew when i turned the corner to get on our road home, even if she fell asleep. She would wake up right as i made the turn. She also loved getting her bedtime treat every night. She always knew when it was bedtime even if I wasn't ready for bed myself. She would go into the kitchen and bark until I would hand out the treats. She will be greatly missed.
