My sister’s sick. Really sick. Mom didn’t even have to tell me so. I could tell all by myself. She’s acting okay. But I know she’s sick. Even though she’s being as mischievous as ever.
We thought she was all well after her last trip to the kitty doctor. And she did get well. I helped her. But then she got sick again. Mom said this time it’s really serious.
I don’t want Lily to be sick. Mom said I did help heal Lily. But we don’t get to choose what that healing looks like. Mom said what Lily has can’t be cured. That it might take a long time, or it might be close to time for Lily to cross over the rainbow bridge.
Mom said we need to let Lily know how much we love her. I did. Mom asked me if I know what the rainbow bridge is. I nodded yes. Then she said we need to tell Lily that when she’s ready it’s okay to cross over the rainbow bridge. I told Lily it’s okay ‘cause Mom asked me to. But Lily already knew that.
All kitty cats and doggies know it’s okay. We all cross the rainbow bridge sometime. There are lots of other kitty cats and doggies to play with already on the other side of the rainbow bridge. And it doesn’t hurt to cross.
The hardest part is that our humans don’t understand. They think we’ve left them. That makes them sad. We haven’t left. We just went to play for a little bit. And to get a new baby body. That way we can come back to our humans again or to new humans who need our love and cuddles.
