My 23 year old, Kittyna, just passed away last night and have been terribly depressed. She is my everything. Yet, I feel blessed that she died in my presence and in my arms. She was soo brave and strong filled with lots of courage as to hanging on to life by fighting with death, just to be with me a little longer. Needless to say, I will always be proud of her and am also blessed to have had her in my life and that of my families for so long.

Upon reading "Rainbow Bridge," it made me feel at ease to hope and have the opportunity to be reunited once again with her (when my time comes). Am happy she will once again be healthy, comfortable and happy.

Thank You for posting this up...

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....
