Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day.

Today is Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day created by Deb Barnes at The Chronicles of Zee and Zoey in honour of the memory of Mr Jazz.
Everyone has been invited to take part to honour the memory of our own loved ones who wait at the Rainbow Bridge for us.


We have loved all of our cats deeply, but the brothers who left the biggest hole in our hearts are of course Eric and Flynn. We honour them today and every day and will love and miss them for ever.



Flynn, April 8th 2000 - May 1st 2017 age 17 years and 3 weeks.


Eric April 8th 2000 - March 19th 2013 age 12 years 11 months.

Today we also remember our other cats who came before and are fondly remembered and loved by us.
We don't have photos of all of them and some photos are very poor quality.

Kitty Yumbum 3rd April 1987 - 23rd July 2002 age 15 years

L to R  Mother Puss 1974 - 3rd November 1997  age 23 years
            Auntie Puss  1974 - 12th August 1998     age 24 years
            Mr Toesies   1981 - 18th March 2000      age 19 years
            Mr Pig         1981 -  13th June   1999      age 18 years
Mother Puss and Auntie Puss were sisters and Mr Pig, Mr Toesies and Desmond were the sons of Mother Puss


Desmond  1981 - 7th June 1995 age 14 years (with Kit)

Tiddler Died 11th April 1993 age unknown thought to be 15 - 16 years.

Snowy (on top of Mother Puss and her 3 sons) Died April 8th 1993. age unknown, thought to be 20+

Smokey (Jelly Bean) 16th March 1986 - 5th May 1987 age 13 1/2 months

Marmi 1972 - 28th November 1982 age 10 years.

Spot died 1972 age unknown. Our first cat together who belonged to Ivor's parents but decided to adopt us so he could be an only cat.

From 4 paws I now remember those with 4 hooves.

Mr Who, my beautiful Irish TB. An ex racehorse, he had a hard start and had been neglected when I got him. He was the perfect gentleman and gave me many years of pleasure galloping across Dartmoor.
Born 1964 - 6th December 1998 age 34 years

Harvester, a Cleveland Bay (with Mr Who)  1975 - 7th November 2003 age 28 years.
We remember them all with love, and also all our friends from the blogging world.
Thank you Deb for creating this day of remembrance.

    So many beautiful angels in your heart. Thank you for sharing - and of course, Eric and Flynn, two kitties who always hold a special spot in our hearts. Purrs from Deb, Mr. Jazz, and the Zee/Zoey gang.

    You have loved and lost so many, most at a very ripe old age, which says a lot to the care you gave them. Thank you for coming by to visit us on this special day, too.

    How after all of these years do I not remember that you had such a large number of pets before Eric and Flynn? Eric and Flynn as you know, are the two special mancats that I knew and loved (and I STILL love them and miss them terribly). Sending you (((hugs))) and love as you remember xoxo

    We had many a smile from Eric and Flynn over the years and they still keep coming in flashbacks. We didn't know the rest but we have a lot of Funny Farmers and Jan has a whole lot of past furries, so we know they are all remembered.
