English term or phrase: rainbow bridge
I am translating an article that talks about what happens after a pet´s death. It talks about different ways of memorializing your pet and then it says:

These ideas were contributed by volunteers of the XXX at the and used with permission in

Left this earthly existence to wait for us by the rainbow bridge. A cherished member of our family will be dearly missed. In loving memory of our pet angel.

I don´t undersstand the meaning of RAINBOW BRIDGE.

Can you help me?

Thank you.

Puente de Arcoiris


Explanation:
Se refiere a que la idea para llegar al cielo primero se cruza un puente de arcoiris. Piensa que en la mitología nórdica se cruza un puente de arcoiris para llegar a Asgard, el reino de los dioses. He encontrado un par de entradas que quizás te puedan servir. Saludos.

cielo del puente del arcoíris / cielo de las mascotas


Explanation:
Creo que "puente del arcoíris" sería una traducción correcta. Pero dado el poco uso en castellano (apenas hay referencia en los buscadores en castellano) creo que es necesario especificar de qué se trata. Propongo por lo tanto una traducción más larga: "cielo del puente del arcoíris" o bien traducir el significado sin mantener la idea del "puente de arcoíris" del original: "cielo de las mascotas".
