| 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.... Author unknown... | |

I have read that poem many times, but for some reason
it really got to me AGAIN. I am bawling my eyes out now. I lost my
dear little Osh-Kosh kitty to cancer a couple of years ago and she had been with
us 13 years. She is the mother of the three remaining kitties I have
now. I miss her so much and my heart was nearly broken when I had to have
her put to sleep. It is so hard to let go. This poem puts things in perspective
and makes me realize that she is so much better off now, free of pain from her
cancer and able to romp and play with her friends. It is a comfort to read
this poem but stirs up all the emotions inside of me. Just had to
vent. Love, Ellie
