WHEN IT’S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE by Angela Garner

This is a practical and compassionate guide to managing the end-of-life transition of a beloved animal companion, both to help the pet and the human family members. Angela Garner is a former nurse and animal bereavement specialist who lives in Devon. The publisher is Findhorn Press, so I can’t imagine a better book on the subject to take full account of the spiritual aspects of our relationships with other beings of whatever species. The book is packed with stories that will fill your hearts with love. Many are sad but they still remind us of the bonds with our pets that can last after the animal is no longer in this incarnation. There is also a lot of practical advice on where to get bereavement advice and how to care for another grieving animal. It’s truly a delightful book and it even has charming little line drawings of dogs, cats, horses and rabbits. DUE IN LATE APRIL
