At Rainbow Bridge, no pet stays unwanted. If a pet is forgotten, or was unwanted in this life, I am sure there are plenty of opportunities for adoption. Think of a little child who was born too unhealthy to have a pet, who couldn't live to grow up. Or someone in an undeveloped country who couldn't have what we think of as a normal life, who don't have the time, money, or energy to devote to a pet. Anyone who crosses that Rainbow Bridge never having owned a pet will have their pick of the orphaned ones.

What if the owner dies first? That would be like our Tuffy. Her first owner died, and later she came to live with us. She will probably cross the Rainbow Bridge soon. I'm sure her original owner will be glad to see her again, since she is such a loving, sweet cat. They'll have such a good time together, until we arrive, and then I trust that Tuffy's original owner will be kind enough to share her with us.

What if the original owners couldn't keep their beloved pet, and had to give dear little Mopsy away to another home where they loved her just as much? Who would claim Mopsy at the Rainbow Bridge? That's the one that puzzles me. Maybe they can all share, as we would share Tuffy. There would be enough love to go around.
