Pet Grief

Pet Grief - Helping to Heal Broken Hearts
Welcome to my Pet Grief page. I too know the pain and suffering of the loss of a pet. It is so devastating and you wonder how you will ever smile again. I am actually leaving here what was originally here at the top of a newsletter page from 2013 when I shared the sad news of the loss of my darling cat Stanley.  Five years later I have written my book Pet Grief - How to Cope Before and After and wish I had known back then, what I know now.
The original start of my newsletter...

I, my husband Bob, and Sally his canine friend, were devastated at the loss of our dear little cat Stan. He,  who like so many cats in spirit I talk to, lost his life on a road. I can truly say, that I felt like my heart had been ripped out, thrown down and trampled upon. At least I know he is always with me and is an Angel and he was in his Earth life too. His first words he sent me from the spirit world were,

"Remember me, I am not far away and will forever in your heart stay."

I thank all my wonderful friends who supported me during this awful time and say a huge appreciation to the patient clients who waited for me to surface back to face the world and work again. At the end of this I have included a picture of him with the poem that I wrote the night he passed over - he was buried with his own copy signed with love from his 'mum and dad'. I have only just gained the strength to read it and print it up - I have left it to the end in case you are at work or would rather read it at another time.
I so wish that I could do this again. It brings tears to my eyes as I type this.
 Pet Grief Book
Five years on and I am in 2018 and life has had many turns however, I have met some amazing and informed people who know how we can help our minds, to help ourselves. 

I am even divorced from Bob, however we remain firm friends. I believe that life has many paths and I live for the day, just as animals do. There are many challenges to life (being a cancer survivor was a huge one) but everything has a reason - if lessons are learnt from our mistakes, then they have helped us in our lives, although it might not have seemed like that at the time!
It is available in paperback and digital from Amazon here. 
Five years on and I am in 2018 and life has had many turns however, I have met some amazing and informed people who know how we can help our minds, to help ourselves. People who have read this have described a pet grief counselling in a book.


Although I am the author of seven animal communication books, this book is different... You do not even need to believe in psychic things or even the afterlife - it is a self-help book filled with practical help and ways to instruct your mind to help you through what you will feel is the most awful time of your life. I know, I have been there and very recently too. 

 
Pet bereavement affects so very many people and although I know this book is unique and helping people, it is the public's opinion that counts. I have had some wonderful feedback and excellent Amazon reviews already so if you find it helps you, please spread the word and help others. 


I spend my life helping animals and their owners, whether on television or my daily work. I am so touched that through this book, yet again, I am able to help ease people's hearts and minds. I am honoured to be given this work to do.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant book with great insight and helpful techniques

I had a reading with Jackie when my dog Gem got her wings and have kept in the loop with her Facebook page. 
This book is a must for anyone who is struggling and it is also great for day to day non pet related feelings too. I could not put this book down. The simple exercises are easy to follow and work with practice. Before I read this book I was in a pickle and not coping at all. I never thought I would ever have a day where I would feel lighter again and this book helped with that. It answered my internal questions and covered everything I was feeling with a very useful mind exercise which has changed everything. Literally I woke up the day after starting the book feeling lighter for the first time in 7 weeks. You do benefit from practice. I would suggest getting this book as it is a life changer when you are in the pits of grief. Non complicated and achievable and I was a lost cause to the point my family were worried about me. Thank you Jackie and Sally.

I loved this, I think Jackie is an amazing woman and a true gift to those who gave lost a pet. It gives a person peace and knowledge I highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book that will help you heal after losing a beloved pet.

Loved this book! We were heartbroken after losing our beloved dog so suddenly, and still in complete shock, were looking for a way to help us to try to come to terms with it all somehow. The book is so easy to read and the style and the coping techniques are easy to follow. Whilst it will take time to get over losing our beloved dog, this book has helped us to focus on the good memories which is what our lovely dog would have wanted us to do. Our pets love their lives with us and that's what they want us to remember - the happy times in their lives, and not just the sadness when we lose them. Great book which I recommend to anybody trying to cope with the pain of losing their beloved friend.

I have just read this amazing book. I wish I had this two months ago when I lost my beautiful cat who was my everything. I know this book will reach and help the hearts of all who read it. Sending a big hug to this truly amazing lady .Thank you Jackie so much for writing this which has started my healing at last. xxx

PS: My husband couldn't put it down reading from cover to cover in one reading. He found it to be very well written and extremely helpful for his grief. We think that this wonderful book has made us able to get over our grief which would have been a lot harder without it.

 
5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful book to mend your broken heart.


I never thought life would be the same about 3 weeks ago when I lost my darling little dog.The grief and hurt was unbearable and my heart was truly broken.Through my tears I found Jackie and instantly was drawn to her and her books. I had a reading and was totally blown away, Jackie told me things from my little dog that no one else would know. I then bought Jackie's book and love it. The tips on how to deal with grief are so heart warming and easy to follow. Jackie's book takes you to a place of healing in simple words, and I'm so thankful for her advice, and how to heal my broken heart. This is one book that I shall read over and over again, and would highly recommend. 

5.0 out of 5 stars  It is okay to feel grief, therefore one can accept.

I thought this book came from the heart from someone who is very empathetic and sympathetic and shows a great understanding through her own experiences.

It is a book that will help even the ones who are sceptics but feel and need to know that it is okay and you are not alone in grief. Thank you for writing this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Techniques to get you through the grief of losing a pet

This is a great book if you are looking for techniques to help you get through the grief of losing a beloved pet and also to get you through the emotional roller coaster of having a senior pet about to make the transition to the rainbow bridge. 
I recently had a reading with Jackie which was amazing and I was eager to read this afterwards. Her compassion and love for animals and helping people really comes through in her writing. Highly recommended.



Pet Love that Never Ends
I know many of you knew from him from his Facebook photos and tales and also the people he taught. He is still helping people to learn and I now call upon him for my spirit work and he has helped me to connect to many beautiful souls that have passed over too.
