REMEMBERING: Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 2024
It’s oaky to talk about death. It’s okay to grieve and cry. It’s okay if the loved one is feline (or canine or any species.) Love isn’t reserved for humankind alone.
And it’s okay to remember.
“Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is a special day dedicated to honoring the memories of those beloved pets in our lives we have loved and lost, but never forgotten. Whether a pet with fur, fin, feathers, scales, or something else – one pet, or many – this day was created for you to honor that pet in any way that feels most comfortable to you.”

Dirty Harry went to the Bridge in March of 2014. He was the best cat, big, brave, and fierce.
Little was our ambassador. When we fostered cats, she would show them the ropes.
Big Red chose us by moving in on our side porch. He was big but very shy.
Tinkerbelle was unflappable, which made her the perfect registered Pet Partner Therapy cat.
Annie was 18, and heart trouble overcame him. We only had Annie for a week, but it was a great week!
Ginchan was our son’s soul mate. When our son died, we took Ginchan who was already quite old and quirky. Never a dull moment.
Blaze was my soul cat. After caring for him in foster, I couldn’t let him go, nor him, me.
Jaimz had a hard life. He should have lived longer but his little body wouldn’t let him.
Lux was the foster cat who changed my life. He crossed the Bridge a few days ago. I really thought he would live forever.
Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day was founded in 2015 by Deborah Barnes, award-winning author, and blogger of Zee & Zoey’s Cat Chronicles in tribute to her Ragdoll cat, Mr. Jazz, who she had to say goodbye to on August 28, 2013. She shared the journey of letting him go in her critically acclaimed book, “Purr Prints of – A Cat’s Tale of Life, Death, and Beyond” and decided to create the day in his honor as a way for others across the world to share memories of their own pets they had loved and lost.
