Hi Frens. Rodney here. Not long now and the Jolly Big Fella in the Red Suit will be visiting. Christmas should be a magical time however, for many, it is not. There are families struggling to put food on their tables or elderly Hoomans with no family at all spending the day on their own. Pwease stop and think about those in our own back yards and what we can do to make their Christmas a wee bit brighter. Is there anything we can do to halps that struggling family? It may be something small like leaving a package of treats on their doorstep to enjoy on Christmas Day. It may be that Christmas Card left in a letterbox so they know someone is thinking of them. It could be inviting that lonely elderly neighbour to Christmas Dinner so they are not eating on their own. Whatever it is, small gestures can go a long way, especially this time of year. I will be leavings my Rainbow Bridge updates now until the New Year (which is not very far away at all). Pwease let me know what you are all doing for Christmas and how you will be halpings someone in your are not so fortunate. I would lurrves to hears from you all. Meantimes, keeps being kinds to each other. Sending hugs, your boy, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈🪽

Hi Frens. Rodney here with your regular Rainbow Bridge update. As you already knows, It has been a tough couple of weeks for ebryone, not only in Manawatu, but arounds the worlds. Whiles life is slowly getting back to some sort of normals for most of us, there are sadly families out there whose lives will never be normals again and we keep them in our thoughts and prayers.
Works here at Rainbow Bridge continues & I am so grateful for the halps I get from Grandpa Buster to lighten the load. He is such a great fren. Here are just some of our new arrivals:
Lucy Alloway, all the fur and feathered Tongariro fire frens, Doggo Rose Johnson, Doggo Boss Bradley, Doggos Pooch & Ben Brown, Kitteh Ado, Doggo Marlo (keeping his three special Angels safe), Kitteh Ralphy & Alvin of Kitty Kingdom Wellington - Cat Sanctuary.
The nice lady in Sanson who paints the rocks for my Meowmorial Garden at Aunty Viv's Kitchen is taking a wee sabbatical & Mum has started doing some painted rocks in the interim. You will find them in my postings. These few have been painted complimentary but Mum is now taking on orders for my Followers. All she asks is a donation (you can nominate the amount) to cover her consumables. Mum will purrsonally deliver orders to my Meowmorial Garden when she gets a number of orders together. You can message Mum on my page to find out more.
Well, a Rainbow Bridge Chief Meeter and Greeters works is never done so back I go to fluff up some cloud pillows and groom some Angel Wings in readiness for new arrivals. Meantimes, keep being kinds to each other as I is all abouts the kindess (hmmmmm, that could be a great Tshirt slogan…….). Sending hugs, your boy, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈

Mum has already had enquiries for painted rocks. Account for donation towards consumables (you are free to nominate the amount) to have these done is as follows (it’s my account but new rules say it has to be a Hooman so Mum has put her name on the account to have it accepted)

Hi Frens! Rodney here with an update for you all! “Fluffy Duck” (name courtesy of Aunty Kirsten Hopkins) is doing really well with his floofy mama chookem. He is coming up 2 weeks old and eating all the things wee bubba ducks should eat (bugs, peas, chopped up greens and unmedicated chookem starter crumbles with a wee bit of brewers yeast added in). He is swimming in his water dish (mum has stones in the bottom so he can‘t drown) & will be graduating to a bigger pool in another couple of weeks. There is another wee family of semi orphan baby ducks (their mama comes and goes) that come in by the chookems to pinch their leftovers and Fluffy Duck is quite curious about them. They seems to be quite close in age & it is hoped they may all accept Fluffy Duck into their wee gang when he is older. Mum is being very careful not to handle him so he remains wary of hoomans. That way, when it is time for him to leave, he wont seek out hoomans for food. Mum still doesn’t know if Fluffy Duck is a boy or a girl so calling him a boy for now. More updates will come over coming weeks so you can all see how he is doing. Sending hugs, your boy, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈🐣

Hi Frens! Rodney here with a cutsie story to put a smiles on your faces. A couple of weeks ago, Mum found an abandoned egg at the farm & popped it under her broody silkie chickem. Well, on Saturday, the wee egg hatched & look what popped out! Mama & baby are both doing well but there is one small pawblem. Baby needs a name. Mum says we don’t yet know the gender but that doesn’t matter. She says my followers are fantastic at thinking up names so starts sendings them in. I can’t waits to see what you all comes up with! Sending hugs, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈🦆🐔💞

Hi Frens. Rodney here from the Rainbow Bridge. Sadly, this week has been very busy with arrivals of all shapes and sizes. Many of them have come way before their time but each & ebryone of them has received their Angel Wings and we has made sures they have been welcomed & settled in here at Rainbow Bridge. Flash/Bangs have once again caused so much destruction not only to our Fur Frens, but especially to the families grieving their Angel Fur Frens. Mum said a man called Mr Winston Peters is starting a process of hopefully having Flash/Bangs stopped, and, given the week Grandpa Buster & I has had, it can’t come soon enough. (Mum also said there is a good page on Facebook called Ban the Boom NZ where Hoomans can register their Guy Fawkes Incidents to add weight to Mr Peter’s process.) Here are just some of the new Angel Arrivals since my last check in: Glasgow the Worksite Kitty of Manurewa, Katsu Marie, Pika, Baxter Morgan, Baby Buttercup of Kitty Kingdom Wellington - Cat Sanctuary, Angel Hawken, Doggo Sprite Sole, Little Crossman, Maggie Taylor, Rusty of The NZ Cat Foundation, Hokey Pokey Zuchinalli (reunited with his sisfur), Vincent Bunker, Baby Catnap of Feral No More, Doggo Izzy Wellwood (casualty of Flash/Bangs), Doggo Minni (casualty of Flash/Bangs) & Pupper Old Mate (casualty of Flash Bangs)
Pwease make sure to leave a message especially for the pawrents of Izzy, Minni & Pupper Old Mate as they navigate life after so cruelly and unnecessarily losing their fur babies. Grandpa Buster & I are off for a wee rest now. Even though Guy Fawkes is sposed to be over, we can guarantee there is still mores to come. Stay safe ebryone and keep those fur babies nearby. Sending hugs, your boy, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈

Hi Frens. Rodney here from the Rainbow Bridge. Grandpa Buster and I are resting up at the moment as we sadly has a couple of very busy (& very unecessary) weeks coming up. Fireworks season is almost here and along with it, the cruel stress it brings for our beloved fur babies and their families. Yes, Hoomans needs to be ables to has their funs, but why, just why does it have to come with the utter devastation it inevitably brings to the animals? Most wild animals are producing babies at this time of the year and are terrorised to the point of abandoning them. Birds come to the Rainbow Bridge in massive numbers due to panic attacks and Bees becomes disorientated and don’t returns to their hives. Sadly, I just know it will be a busy meet and greet time here for myself and grandpa Buster & my only wish would be that Hoomans stop buying fireworks and spend the $$s on food for Rescues instead. I would lurrves to know what you are all doing to keeps your fur babies safe. Mum & Dad will have all the fur babies inside with them during fireworks season with all the blinds closed and the telly and radio turned up. The Geegees will be safe in the stables with the lights left on and the stable radio going. The chickems have a cover to go over their coop and lighting to halps block out the flash/bangs. Pwease keep your fur babies safe & don’t furrget to check to see their microchip details are up to date in the pawsible event they spook and run aways. Sending hugs to you and your fur frens during this upcoming stressful time all the way from the Rainbow Bridge. Your boy, Rodney ###🐾💞🌈
