Supporting Your Animal To Support You.
If you're here reading this page, my heart goes out to you. Our bond with our animals may be deeper than our most intimate human connections. Animals are interwoven into the daily fabric of our lives. Wondering how and when to say good bye can feel overwhelming.
I've supported many families around the question of assisted transition for their animal companions. People hope for the best. A natural, peaceful passing for their animal in the comfort of their home. It often doesn't always work out that way.
People are understandably concerned about the animal's quality of life. Quality of life can change dramatically or gradually. People feel burdened having to make the decision about assisted transition for their animal ('not wanting to play God'). Not wanting to do it too early (and 'cut a life short'). Not wanting to do it too late ('being selfish and prolong the pain'). End of life decisions can arise quickly due to accidents or illness. Or you may have been experiencing grief for years (known as anticipatory grief) if your animal has a chronic illness.
There is another way. intuitive animal communication allows you to have a conversation with your animal. Ask them how they are feeling, what they need, and how you can help them feel more comfortable at this time.
Animal communication helps end-of-life care become a process of honouring your animal's wishes and it’s no longer a guessing game. While it doesn't make saying goodbye any easier, you know the actions you take are both respectful and supportive of your animal.
You can also ask your animal, if they have preferences about their passing, including if they want help to transition, and how and where this might take place (at home or vet clinic). Animals are grateful for your love, your care and your help with assisted transition. They are reliant on you to help them. They know it's not easy for you and they appreciate your role. Animals do not fear death in the way many people do. Transition is a powerful and sacred time, before, during and after.

Thank you so much, for everything. I am sure you have heard this many times in the past, but your call/ support/ communication has been a huge game changer for me. Being able to clearly hear and understand what Frodo is feeling, what he wants and what he needs has entirely changed how I am processing this experience. I cannot thank you enough for helping me understand what was in Frodo's heart and what he needed. I of course miss his physical presence, but I am so grateful that he is no longer suffering. Knowing that I did what was best for him alleviates any guilt about the decision. |

It is difficult for me to find the words to describe how magical it is to share a conversation with my animals through Christine. During the past year both of my animals were ill. Christine was able to connect us and I was able to ask what was helping them feel comfortable. As well, when it was became time to plan for Louie's transition, Christine's questions and her gentle nature allowed us to have the most beautiful send off. Thank you Christine for helping me be with my beloved animals during difficult times and to cherish the memories we recalled during our times together. Thank you for lighting the path on our journey. I will never forget the connections we shared. |
