If you've recently lost a beloved pet—or are still carrying the silent weight of a loss from long ago—this audiobook is for you.

The Pet Loss Grief Companion offers gentle, research-backed support for anyone navigating the heartbreak of losing a dog, cat, or animal friend. This is more than a guidebook. It's a comforting voice in the dark, helping you understand why your pain is valid, why your grief may feel misunderstood, and how you can move forward without letting go of the love.

You'll learn about the neuroscience of attachment and why pet loss feels so overwhelming. You'll be guided through a unique five-stage model of pet grief, and hear stories from others who have walked this path. Along the way, you'll discover practical ways to manage empty routines, cope with holidays and anniversaries, and talk to loved ones who may not understand your sorrow.

You'll also explore how to help children and other pets in the household, how to create meaningful memorials, and how to know if—or when—you're ready for a new companion.

This audiobook is warm, gentle, and full of heart. It will help you make space for the pain, without being consumed by it. And most importantly, it will remind you that the bond you shared hasn't ended—it's simply taken a new form.

Because grief is the price of love. And healing is how we carry that love forward.
