Recently, I completed my 7th year of doing a fundraising lecture at the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire (ARLNH) and had help from a good friend. Today's blog is about that amazing event and the incredible people who made it possible.
Seven years ago, I decided that I would teach people how to recognize signs from their late pets and ask them to share their experiences. Every time I do this lecture, many people share, and some of the experiences are amazing.
The ARLNH operates ONLY through donations. There is no state or federal funding for this shelter, so fundraising and donations are critical, and anyone can donate from anywhere in the world! Marianne and Charlotte from ARLNH coordinated and promoted the event - and it was amazing!
During the 90 minute lecture I taught attendees how their spirit pets send signs from the afterlife. The lecture is based on my best-selling Pets and the Afterlife series (books 1,2,3, and 4).I talked of ways to cope with grief and loss, identified signs they give us and I explained the science behind it. I talked about how and why living pets can sense spirits.

My friend Kevin volunteered to join me and share his story and experiences about his dog, Pupeye, now in spirit. I met Kevin and his wife Lauren at this same event 2 years before. Kevin said he went from skeptic to sharing experiences as Pupeye has done amazing things from manipulating electricity, to making appearances to his young son, to Kevin finding himself in traffic behind a car with a license plate that said "Pupeye" - spelled the exact same way (Popeye is the sailor character, btw, so this was unbelievable).
Another amazing story was shared by an attendee who said she had 2 cats. One was her "heart cat" (closest cat), so lovable, and used to climb on her whenever she sat down, and the cat would lay his head on the mom's shoulder. That cat passed.
She said the surviving cat was the "meanest cat, ever" and would scratch her and never be affectionate. After the heart cat died, she said the mean cat climbed on her when she was sitting, and rested his head on her shoulder like the "heart cat!" She was stunned and befuddled. - I told her the Heart cat had instructed the mean cat to do that. That's what spirit pets do. They teach others to do what they used to do, so we would know the spirit is around.
PLEASE donate to ARLNH! The rescue is located at 545 State Rte 101, Bedford, NH 03110 Phone: (603) 472-3647 https://www.rescueleague.org/
