Animals in Spirit: Our Faithful Companions’ Transition to the Afterlife
by Penelope Smith
Review by Annette Kahmann

Where do animals go when they die? How will I know when it is time to let go of my animal companion? Can I still communicate with my pets when they are dead? These and a number of other questions related to the life-death transition of animals are answered in Animals in Spirit by animal communication veteran, Penelope Smith. The book is very readable, yet not simplistic or over-simplified; each chapter is full of valuable information and to the point, illustrated by brief accounts of deceased pets and their human companions.

Whether you are grieving the death of one of your animal family members, wonder how to deal with a pet’s terminal disease, or are simply interested in animals and life on the other side, I invite you to join Smith “on this journey into the minds, hearts and the very souls of our animal friends, exploring how our intimate connection with them extends from life to death and beyond.”
