THE STORY OF
When an animal passes away who has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows, hills, lakes and streams 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, comfortable, and safe. 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 very 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 a day comes when one will suddenly stop and stare into the distance. His bright eyes widen and are intent. His eager body quivers in anticipation. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor.

Your hands again caress their beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting, loving eyes of your friend, who was gone from your life.....but who was never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge....together. ~ Author Unknown ~ |
