The writing of Annalise Paige Quinn is gentle and soft on the heart. You will instantly relate to what happened when she lost her beloved companion cat Layla. This books puts words to your feelings if you have also lost a pet. As Annalise recounts the days before the loss it helped me think of the good times with Fuzzy Sage, the cat I just lost a few weeks ago. It was helpful to feel understood and cared for throughout the book because I’ve cried a lot and been quite heartbroken. From the first page to the last I felt this provided memories and considerations. I think this book gave me ideas on how to remember the wonderful days Fuzzy Sage was in my life!

This book helped me “tremendously” dealing with the grief of the loss of my cat (my baby and companion). I had him for 14 years, he was my constant companion for the past 6 years working from home. I resonated with all the thoughts and feelings in this book. Her words validated all I was feeling and going through. The advice she gave on how to memorialize your cat was perfect, I had already done some of her suggestions prior to reading the book and wondered if I was going overboard; she helped me to see I wasn’t. I will definitely forward this book to someone I know dealing with the loss of their cat knowing it will help them through the loss as it has me. Thank you Annalise.

My mother in law bought this for my son when our dog Rex passed. Rex’s passing crushed my son but this journal gave him a gentle place to explore his feelings. He drew Rex, listed favorite fetching toys, and proudly shared each memory page. The quick activities turned scary grief into manageable moments and the letter he wrote even made me tear up! This is such a warm, kid-friendly tool for any family facing a first pet loss.
