Re books for the grieving; which ones are helpful?
Many of us who grieve for our pets who've passed on have turned to the 'Life After Life' sort of books,in desperation for some consoling ideas to help us recover as much as possible; Unfortunately, many of these books seem fraudulent, organized religious-based, with pat answers that don't help at all. My question is which ones have been of any help to readers here? And which haven't? Thanks, jf (Previously attempted to post this, but it seems not to have appeared) |

Thanks, (Previously attempted to post this, but it seems not to have appeared) You people must certainly be desperate for love and affection. Just let it go. It's just an animal! Not a person. I had a dog for 10 years when I was a kid, but when it got into poison and died, I never even so much as shed a tear. I understood that this was an animal and animals aren't going to live nearly as long as people. I save those kinds of feelings for human beings. Not simple animals. You people should learn to tell the difference. Just my Three cents. IBen Getiner |

Noon Cat Nick laid this down on his screen :

I mean nothing against anyone and all people are different but based on my own experiences in life and the way I was taught I take some of his points as valid. -- Count Baldoni |
