We just don't rescue their body, we rescue their Spirit!
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 and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who have 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 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. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly, one begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, legs running faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend 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 the Rainbow Bridge together...
Last night, I truly lost a piece of myself....we all did! My best friend Shadow, passed away, crossing the Rainbow Bridge into Heaven. He was surrounded by his loved ones, his family ( Myself, Claudia, Michael, Chris, and Matty ), didn't suffer, and looked truly peaceful afterwards. I rescued him 14.5 years ago from W.A.G.S. ( With A Golden Spirit ), changing both our lives forever. Through thick and thin, he never left my side......not even diabetes, arthritis, loss of hearing and sight, ever swayed his good spirit or devotion! He lived just over 16 years, being loved and cared for every moment of the way. You will be missed, my Baby boy. Never forget how much Daddy loves you! Thank you all for your kind words this morning. Enjoy some of our favorite moments....
