| 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....
