Updated!!!
Farewell all of our friends who have gone to the Bridge in the last while. My OTW took this from our balcony a few days ago. My OTW wanted to write something for all the friends who have passed on, but after a few she ran out of words, so she thought she would just ask me to post this. If you look closely, there's a second rainbow over to the left of the first one.

This is a beautiful picture, really stunning what a view you have off your back balony. It saddens me to see so many on your list...it just tears a little at your heart with each name.....

That's such a beauiful tribute and picture, Jack. Thanks for includin' our Aunt Tippy. It makes us and Mom so sad to see how long the list is.
The Norwegian Forest Cat was Ullrick, but we're not sure of the spelling. There was also Digby, his link is on the CB list. The Meezer's Grandpa Norton and Grandma Trixie, too. We can think of some others, but we're not sure how far back you want to go?
oh Jack, that was a beautiful pikshur and beautiful tribute
That is a really special post. The rainbow was quite amazing and to bring that whole list together reminds us of our great friends who are at the Rainbow Bridge.
Thanks!

So many furiends playin an watchin ofur all of us from the Rainbow Bridge. Lovely pictor. Pets have short lives, but long shadows as we remember them. Mom remembers Bigotes, who died 20 years ago this summer, and Scruffy, who died eleventeen years ago, and Two Socks the rat, who died threeteen years ago. Time to hug alla yur beans an tell 'em how much you love 'em. I hugged Mom this mornin.
That is a very beautiful picture. I did not realize the list has grown so long. We cry at the passing of each of our friends.
That list is so long, and a lot of them so recent....oh, oh, moms leeking again. That piksher is beyootiful.
Fantastic photo. It is always sad to lose our friends. We don't have words either.
Oh yes, the picture goes with this post so well - how beautiful.
That's so sweet, Jack. *hugs* and PURRRRRRRRRRS,
Robyn, Sanjee, Boni Maroni, Mini, Gree, Pepi and GrandmaCat
Furry nice tribute!
That is a beautiful rainbow picture and very thoughtful to post it - we're sorry that there are so many names, but it's good to remember them all. A wonderful tribute!
Purrrrs, China Cat & Willow

A beautiful picture and a kind and thoughtful post. It makes us sad to read how many friends have left us. Thank you for remembering my brother.
Mom showed dis updated list to dad and he sed dat is way to many! He thinks our blogging frends are da kindest group in da werld cuz we feel each loss, unlike his group who announce a passing and move right on wifout so much as a "gee dats to bad". Sometimes dey don't even know about it until someone asks where dat person is!
beautiful Picture and Beautiful tribute. Thank you for adding my butterscotch.
Wow...there must be a big party going on at the bridge!
Thank you for including our buddy Tiger and the guinea pigs too!
That is a lovely pikchur. That list is far too long, it makes us sad that so many haf gone on to the Bridge.
wow, we has lost lots and lots of furriends. but we has made lots and lots of furriends at the same time too. it's funny how that werks.
What a lovely picture! We're very sad that the list is so long, and one of our friends is on your list and we didn't even know of her passing (the lovely Chloe). If you'd like, you could add our friend Milo. We posted about her a while back. She belonged to our neighbor, but had a petting/treats/friendship with our Lady for many years.
What a wonderful tribute! Such a great photo to honor those we have lost. You're so thoughtful and kind.

i did not notice lucas aka price diaper http://princediaper.blogspot.com/
Oh, thank you for such a beautiful post! It's so comforting to know that all our bridge friends are so nearby and watching over us.
Everybody at Artsy Catsy
Thank you for remembering Duncan, and all the others too.
Jack, my Mom's eyes are leaking- she is so touched that you included Kitten. She misses him so much! It's so sad to see so many passings...
LOKi
it is sad to know so many have left us but at least we can feel secure knowing that they are free from pain and waiting for us at the bridge. what a nice tribute to all who have gone on to the bridge. love the couble rainbow picture.
Oh. That picture is so nice. And that list is so long. I miss so many of my kitty friends...
Awwww, that is so very sweet of you, da rainbow is so purrfect for them.
Secretly, I'd like to add my big sis angel kitty, but she went to the Bridge over 1.5 yrs ago...so not really the last little while. ;)
You are so wonderful, Jack, for thinking of them.
~Casey
what a lovely tribute.
FAZ
p.s. Jack, I may well take you up on your offer to sort out Hefty Tabby - he trapped me inside all day yesterday (I couldn't get outside to 'you know what'). FAZ
If you are still adding names, could you please add my sister, Rita who went to the bridge last December?
Purrs,
Batman
Would you please add Vincent to the list? He was the kitty who came before us. Mommy was having trouble dealing with him being gone and found the Cat Blogosphere. People she knows in the outside world don't really understand. It has helped so much to be able to talk to other beans and furry people who do understand because they feel the same way.
Thank you for the list, now we know who Critter is frolicking with...
The feline denizens of the House of Chaos
Lovely picture, beautiful tribute to some wonderful loved animals
Oh what a beautiful image. Our eyes are leaking, so many family members gone now. May their memories always be written in our hearts. Thank you for sharing this.
Lots of purrs and Love
Beautiful and touching. Eppy (of Eponine's Cowboy) is also at the Rainbow Bridge. I think it was about 2 years ago because Eppy went to the bridge shortly after I started blogging.

This is a beautiful photo and Farewell Friends post!!
We are so thankful that you added Ralph's name. Now we know for sure he is with friends -- he was not a cat to be alone, he needed purring friends and he had so much to give...
Thank You, Jack!
Could you please add these two? Not blogging kitties, but missed nonethless.... our beautiful neighbor girl, Tula, and KJ, the Maine Coon kitten that we didn't get to know. My husband returned him to his people after he was hit by somebody's car and went to the bridge.
Colleen, momma to Charlemagne and Tamar
Spirit and Ezra say... Could youse please add our Hammy Brofurr Sammy (Samster the Hamster). He died a week ago. We have a memorial post for him but Momma start to cry when she trys to post it so we're gonna wait a few more days.
Milo was Jeter's friend, Reebok da Grate's brother.
Sorry, I posted in the wrong place earlier.
Barbie-Lou & Taylor & Clay
This list is way too long. But thank you so much for doing it, it is very very wonderful to have such a great tribute to all our loved ones who are gone. We didn't even know you had this list - we will come back once in a while to remember each and every one. We know how much they are all missed because we miss our Anastasia soooo much still.....
Karl
I found the Milo on Catster, here is his link: http://www.catster.com/cats/56446
Hope this helps. Beautiful tribute to the kitties who have left us.
