Their spirits are always with you.
I just finished reading this and it is very comforting. I have lost many pets in my lifetime and have always had trouble coming to terms with their deaths. Lately, I have discovered that our animals are not gone from our lives when they pass on. This book verified things I have already known, but one thing I didn't know was that you could talk to them and they would actually hear you.I recently had an experience concerning Smokey, one of our cats. He was a Maine coon mix and at least twenty years old. He died of old age and I was missing him a couple of days ago. I had my head down and my eyes closed trying to keep from crying, when I felt something on top of my head. It felt like a paw and I got that image in my mind. Raising my head, I felt the top of my head and picked up a flying black bug that had landed there. I put it on the floor and at that time I knew Smokey was ok. The author of the book says animals use insects, butterflies and other things to communicate. I believe that.The book needs a little editing, but it didn't bother me enough to put it down. This is a keeper for me.I would recommend this book to anyone who has ever lost a pet. It will change the way you see your pet's death.

Offers comfort that couldn't be found elsewhere
My Pomeranian passed away at the beginning of May, after 16 1/2 years together. She had been ill, but was doing better, and then one day, her health did a 180 from the night before. I had to make the most horrific decision a pet parent ever has to make. I cannot describe the pain, and emptiness that followed. I found myself doubting my choice, and questioning what she must have thought of me. Did she think I just gave up on her? Did she think I didn't love her enough, and that after all the love she showed me, my thanks was to have her life taken from her? I found myself starting to panic and question things I never really gave much thought to before; Will I really get to be with her again? How do we know they will be waiting for us? I was inconsolable, and I have never wailed the way I did in the week following her passing. Truth be told, I still have not gone one day without crying over her.The day after she died, my mom gave me Rob's name, and told me how a few of her friends had met him and experienced his gift. I immediately found this book, and downloaded it. It was very difficult to get through more than a few pages at a time, because I just couldn't control the tears. However, the further I got, the more comfort and peace I started to feel.I also found a podcast on his website, which was also extremely insightful and offered relief to all the questions that were plaguing me. He has a sincerity in his tone, and his writing sounds more like a friend explaining things to you, than just reading a random book.A month after my baby was set free (almost to the day), my mother suffered the same loss with her elderly dog. Like me, she values her animals and her bond with them over people, so I know she was experiencing the same soul-crushing agony that I was. My mom doesn't have digital books, so I immediately ordered the paperback and had it sent to her, as I know it will help bring some comfort.Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who finds themselves in a whirlwind of questions and painful emotions. Thanks to this book, I was able to take solace in the fact that my questions, fears, doubts, and guilt, are shared by many pet parents. I don't know if I will ever feel certain that I made the right choice; there are always so many variables and what-if's, but I now know that I am not alone in those thoughts, and I have hope that she will sometimes be near, and that one day, I will have the joy of being reunited with her.

This book helped me so much! It was such ...
This book helped me so much! It was such a comfort! I was having such a difficult time with the passing of my French Bulldog Lilly, well actually I still am. It's been almost 6 months. It's getting easier day by day, but it's a slow process. Robs personal stories and the stories from others who have lost their little furry kids have helped me so much. It also makes me realize that I am not losing my mind, and that others have experienced the signs and messages from our pets, from beyond. Sometimes I think that I am imagining things, but the signs are too many and too much to just be coincidence. Rob helps you to make sense of it all in this book.

Our pets will be with us in the afterlife
I unexpectedly had to send my much adored 16 yr. old mini Dachshund to heaven. While saying good bye to my girl I kept telling her to let me know she was OK. Later I looked for a book about pets that had died. Pets and the Afterlife spoke to me so I ordered it and LOVED. It was comforting and heart warming. After I had ordered the book I passed by the bedroom and in a quick moment I saw my sweet dog sitting on the end of the bed as she always had done. Just as the book mentions she was able to let me know she was OK in the afterlife.

Wonderful book for those who have lost a beloved pet...
This is a wonderful book for those who are grieving the loss of a pet, especially for those who had to make the decision to end their furry friend's life through humane euthanasia. I just purchased this book this past Friday, and I couldn't put it down. I had it finished by the next day. I lost a cat that was very special to me this past February, and have been having a hard time dealing with her loss. This book has brought me endless amounts of comfort, as I am now certain that I had made the correct excision, and that my sweet little kitty is at peace. I would recommend this book to anyone who is questioning their decision or who is simply having a difficult time dealing with a loss of a pet. Rob Gutro is very talented and will give you insight into seeing signs that you may have missed that your beloved pet is whole again and at peace. I now look forward to reading his other books as well. I hope that this book brings as much comfort to others as it has to me.

Needing Comfort
I miss my animals and am waiting to see them again. This book is helpful for those enduring pet loss grief, or for any pet owner, since we all have to prepare for the inevitable time we will face when we lose a pet. It is an outstanding way to pre-deal with it, so that when it occurs, adults can be better prepared to explain it to their children.

A fascinating book
I really enjoyed reading this book. Since my cat died in July, I have walked through a heavenly purr, heard him meow and feel him visit me, this starts off as a flash of light, this book has helped me understand these signs. I also know that we have a soul contract with our pets which was formed before we were born and the contract tells us when we will die. Thank you for an amazing read. X

Amazing insight
After losing a dear cavalier king Charles spaniel recently I now realise that things that have happened to me were in fact signs from my sweet boy. who was obviously letting me know that he was just fine. I felt that initially it was perhaps my imagination. I now truly believe they do communicate with us. Thank you Rob.
