When an animal
dies who has been especially close to
someone here, that animal goes to
Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and
hills for all of our special friends so
they can run and play together. There is
plenty of food, water and sunshine, and
our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the
animals that had been ill and old are
restored to health and vigor. Those who
were hurt or maimed are made whole and
strong again, just as we remember them
in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content,
except for one small thing...they each
miss someone very special to them,
someone who had to be left behind.
They all run
and play together, but the day comes
when one suddenly stops and looks into
the distance. Her bright eyes are
intent. Her eager body quivers.
Suddenly, she begins to run from the
group, flying over the green grass, her
legs carrying her faster and faster.
You have been
spotted, and when you and your special
friend finally meet, you cling together
in joyous reunion, never to be parted
again. The happy kisses rain upon your
face; your hands again caress the
beloved head, and you look once more
into the trusting eyes of your loved
one, so long gone from your life but
never absent from your heart.
Then you cross
Rainbow Bridge together...
