The heart to heart connection you had with your animal companion continues after they have passed, and the love you shared will always be a part of you. Who can better bring you forgiveness when you are overwhelmed by guilt and regret after the death of your animal companion than your beloved pet in the afterlife? That is what Marianne discovered when she lost a beloved animal companion herself, and she found much comfort and peace in the messages of forgiveness and love she received from her angel cat. Since those first angel animal messages, Marianne has connected with many pets (pets that are alive and pets in the afterlife), and the messages received in those journeys have brought peace to those grieving the loss of a deceased or dying pet. You will find several new, inspiring messages from angel cats and angel dogs in this 2nd edition of Marianne's Healing Pet Loss book. This book offers inspiration, comfort and suggestions for coping with a variety of situations associated with pet loss, such as when your beloved animal friend is dying, when you are struggling with guilt after pet loss, when your animal friend died suddenly, or when your pet is missing. This book offers many tools and useful insights and includes suggestions for helping children cope with the loss of their pet, how to help the other animals in the household who might be grieving the loss of their animal friend, and it gives suggestions when you are wondering when or if to get a new pet after pet loss. And the book also introduces you to embracing animals as your teachers. May this book bring peace to your grieving heart.

Download or read book Pet Loss written by Herbert A. Nieburg and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1996-02-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoroughly researched and expertly written, this comprehensive guide is a must for animal lovers dealing with the loss of a pet. The death of a pet can cause enormous feelings of sorrow, guilt, and loneliness for children and adults alike, whether the end comes through old age, illness, sudden death, or euthanasia. Yet pet owners are often inhibited in their very real grief, even if the animal was considered a full-fledged family member, a child's favored playmate, or an elderly person's faithful companion. In Pet Loss, the authors acknowledge and encourage such grief, and assert that pet owners must learn to cope with the death of an animal as they would with any significant loss--by expressing their feelings and coming to terms with their grief. At once a practical guide and an emotional support, Pet Loss offers unique advice for owners faced with an animal's passing, from the difficult decision to put a pet to sleep to dealing with a veterinarian or making funeral or cremation arrangements. Other questions answered in this book include: Do animals go off by themselves to die? How can children be helped with their grief over the death of a family pet? When an animal has to be put to sleep, what is the best method? How and when should one take in a new pet? How much can a vet be expected to do?
