Today is Inigo's day to journey to The Rainbow Bridge. (Indigo is brofur to @Rumblepurr)
He has fought a brave fight but today he boards my Pram and together we will cross OTRB, where Inigo will be met by many Pals at his own "Special Welcome Banquet".
I invite all Pals to join in honoring Inigo by joining the #BadBoyzofTwitter Official Motorcade ! The motorcade will commence at 4pm EST, when the BadBoyz will ride in a Guard of Honor, ahead of all Pals, as you move toward the Rainbow Bridge.
Pals will be able to wave to Inigo as he stands at The Gate. I will already be waiting for him, on the other side of that Gate. I will meet Inigo, and drive him to his Banquet Hall, where preparations are already underway! Rumble's and his Mum will be watching from the sidelines.
Although it is a very sad time, please remember: when we are OTRB, time and space do not change a thing. On the day Inigo's Mum, or Rumbles finds themselves at The Bridge, Inigo will be there waiting for them and once again, they will be together.....forever.
Join in this wonderful outpouring of love, by accompanying #BadBoyzofTwitter on their "Official Motorcade for Inigo" ! Please note: the #PinkAngels will also ride in the Motorcade too !
Oh we heard about Inigo so sorry he lost his fight but we know that he will have a good life OTRB with so many of our other pals.

ReplyDeleteA SONG FOR @INIGOFLUFFLEBUM & @RUMBLEPURR
ReplyDelete-----------------------------------------
(sing to tune of 'Two Little Boys')
-----------------------------------------
Two little boys had two little toys
Each had a little Thwack
Gaily they played each summer’s day
Warriors both of course
One little chap then had a mishap
Broke off his thwacker’s tail
Wept for his toy, then cried with joy
As his young playmate said
Did you think I would leave you crying
When there's room on my tree for two
Climb up here, Rumbles and don't be crying
I can play just as fast with two
When we grow up we'll both be soldiers
And our thwackers will not be toys
And I wonder if we'll remember when we were
Two little boys
Long years past, floof came so fast
Bravely they playfighted away
Growling roared loud and in the mad crowd
Wounded and purring lay, up goes a shout
A cat dashes out, out from the ranks so blue
Gallops away to where Inigo lay, then came a voice he knew
Did you think I would leave you dieing
When there's room on my tree for two
Climb up here, Inigo we'll soon be playing
I can play just as fast with two
Did you say Inigo I'm all a-rumble, perhaps it's the battle’s noise
But I think it’s that I remember when we were two little boys
Do you think I would leave you dieing
There's room on my tree for two
Climb up here, Inigo we'll soon be playing
You’re up in the sky, so blue
Can you feel Inigo, I'm all a-rumble, yes - it's the purring noise
Because it is that I remember when we were Two Little Boys
----------------
* RIP Inigo *

I'm so very sorry that Inigo must leave his family - he will be welcomed & well looked after by all his friends at RB
ReplyDeleteSafe journey & wear your seatbelt, Pepi is a demon driver!
Firstly, I'm not one who normally comments on blogs, as I find my words usually end up just wasting space but this blog and the events of the past few weeks have deeply moved me. Secondly, except for the absolutely brilliant version of "Two Little Boys" by @WallasEKatt & @IsaGold, I haven’t read the many other comments on this webpage because I am probably going to reiterate many thoughts already spoken. I promise you I will read them after I've posted and then berate myself for not having thought of that or said this!
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I did not know @inigoflufflebum (and have only recently had the pleasure of meeting @rumblepurr, who is an utter delight!), I was incredibly inspired by the many gatherings to celebrate his life, particularly on Sunday at 1600 hours (New Zealand time). Let's not kid ourselves although the majority of us who attended the #porchwithinigo and #pawpawty were speaking on behalf of our anipals it was human sentiments being emoted. We may be the typist our anipals use to show love and friendship on twitter but we are really humanising them. Oh dear, the #wlf will most certainly now deregister Cadet @JessieJaney for not controlling her huMum!
My first conversation with @PepiSmartDog occurred just 14 hours before he escorted Inigo over the Rainbow Bridge. At that time I told him to get some sleep as he'd been working way too long and late ensuring that everything would be perfect for Inigo, RumblePurr and their human family.
It was the most incredible and emotion filled ceremony I have ever attended. I couldn't count the number of people who, via their anipals, articulated their feeling of loss; my guess would be 100's. We were not just saying goodbye to Inigo but we were saying farewell to every beloved anipal who had ever touched our hearts. My emotions were raw but with each comment made by @PepiSmartDog I was healing. He took us on a wondrous journey which made me smile and even laugh but, most of all, be grateful that I had got up off my arse and turned the computer on so I could watch the events of the day transpire.
Thank you to the all the staff who organise the #pawpawty events, a more dedicated bunch of anipals I've yet to meet. They manage to coordinate such fun from the 4 corners of the World! Thank you also must go to the members of the #BadBoyzofTwitter and the #PinkAngels for their motorcade escorting Inigo.
My sincere gratitude to Pepi for your brilliant wordsmanship that enabled us to envision such a beautiful dream! Through your webpage and your "Over the Rainbow Bridge" ceremony you have helped so many of us celebrate a life.
