Remembering Cheetah “Chee-Chee bon qui qui” Sousa

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Cheetah “Chee-Chee bon qui qui” Sousa, who was just shy of her 14th birthday.

She will be deeply missed by her loving family: Jonathan, Becca, Ariana, Auriana, Stitch, and Pickelle. To them, she will always be their beloved “Chee-Chee.”

Among her favorite activities were running outside, riding happily in her doggie stroller, carrying her favorite bone, and, of course, barking. Some of Cheetah’s happiest moments were spent hoping for a bite of whatever her human family happened to be eating, always nearby and ready to share in the love around the table.

Cheetah’s favorite toys included her little blue teardrop, her fuzzy teddy bear, antler bones, and sticks. Her least favorite thing was going on walks, which made her doggie stroller all the more fitting. Cheetah’s favorite places to sleep were her Mom and Dad’s bed, the top of the couch, and all of her doggie beds.

Cheetah “Chee-Chee” lived a long, happy life filled with love for nearly 14 wonderful years. She was cherished by so many and brought joy to everyone who knew her. Her sweet spirit, funny little ways, and loving presence will be greatly missed and forever remembered.
