Rainbow Bridge

Rainbow Bridge

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, someone who was 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 begins to quiver. Suddenly, he
breaks from the group, flying over the green grass, 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 those trusting eyes, so long
gone from your life, but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together...
