Just this
side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an
animal dies that has been especially close to
someone here, that pet 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 who 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, 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.
His bright eyes are intent. His eager body
quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the
group, flying over the green grass, his legs
carrying him 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 pet, so long
gone from your life but never absent from your
heart.
Then you
cross Rainbow Bridge together....
