Just this side of heaven is a place called the 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…





Our fuzzies have a way of leaving footprints on our hearts so that they're never really gone, they're just over the bridge waiting for us. This forum is a memorial for those who have crossed. Feel free to post pictures, stories or anything else about your little angel in this memorial. This section isn't just limited to ferrets but to any pet who has passed on.

Loss of a Ferret - unknown author

If you've ever known the welcome
Of a funny, fuzzy friend,
That brings a ray of shinshine
When the day draws to an end-

If you've ever hugged a Ferret close
To share a tear or two,
Or maybe just a whiskered kiss
To lift you when you're blue-

If you've ever felt the wrenching pain
That only death can send-
Then losing a sweet Ferret
Is like losing a dear friend.

But God is good and treasures love
And there at Heaven's gate,
That funny face and joyful dance-
Your precious Ferret waits.

My heart is all yours, this you already know.
There is no other creature that I could love more.
Whenever you smile, you know I smile too
And when you are sad, I will cry for you.
When you're alone, I will always be there,
When you feel so un-loved, you know that I care.

I am not perfect, I will do some things wrong,
I will make you angry, but not for too long.
If I chew your slippers, or dig up your lawn,
I know you’ll forgive me, and welcome me home.
You forgive me the things that make you so mad,
And you love me so much, even when I am bad.

How many times have you tripped over me?
When its dark and you're tired, and you cannot see.
Not once have I thought that you were to blame,
I cannot hold malice, I can never hold shame.
If you've made me squeal out and stood on my paw,
You never meant to hurt me; it was an accident, I know.

When the short time I have has come to an end,
I know you'll be there, for you are my friend.
You will not let me suffer, for your love is so true,
And you'll know in your heart, it's the right thing to do.
So please don’t feel guilty, when you must let me go,
I never will blame you, for loving me so.
