In honor of Sunday-Selfie, a picture of my angel, Mr. Jazz – the inspiration for Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day.<\/p><\/div>\n

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is on August 28 and for those of you who might want to participate in some manner, I wanted to share a few details in advance. First off, the brief history of the day – I founded Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day (RBRD) in 2015 as a special day for pet guardians to honor the memory of those beloved pets in their life they have loved and lost, but never forgotten \u2013 whether fur, fin, feathers, scales or something else. It\u2019s held every year on August 28, in honor of the day I had to say goodbye to my precious Ragdoll cat, Mr. Jazz, the meow author of Purr Prints of the Heart \u2013 A Cat\u2019s Tale of Life, Death, and Beyond.<\/em><\/a>  <\/p>\n

Secondly, as with every year, there is no pressure to participate. I don\u2019t want to make anyone uncomfortable, as I know it\u2019s a sad day. But it\u2019s also a beautiful day. The outpouring of love I see every year is so touching, as people share in the love they have for their pet(s) and it\u2019s a time when we can all take a moment to collectively come together and comfort one another.<\/p>\n

Every year I host a blog hop – the post will go live at 12:00 a.m., EST, on August 28 with the code and linking information available at that time. I have also created a Facebook event page for those who want to post a picture, write a poem, share a favorite memory, upload a video, or share a blog post link. This is the event link: . Please feel free to invite others you think might want to be a part of the day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I created a new logo for the event last year and this will be the official logo moving forward. If anyone does not have it and would like to use it, please email me at info@zeezoey.com<\/a> and I\u2019ll forward it to you. There is no requirement to use the logo \u2013 this day comes from the heart, so please do whatever is most comfortable for you. If you\u2019ll be sharing on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or other social venues, you can use the hashtag #rainbowbridgeremembranceday and if you\u2019re crediting me for founding the day in any of your posts, please reference me as Deb Barnes of Zee and Zoey\u2019s Cat Chronicles, author of Purr Prints of the Heart and founder of Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day.<\/p>\n

Thank you, everyone \u2013 my heart goes out to all of you who have loved and lost a pet. Wishes for a peaceful Sunday to all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
