Pets Have Feelings Too!

Understanding Your Pet's Physical, Emotional and Spiritual Needs. Also learn about Reincarnation, Soul Mates and Energy Imprinting

By: Dr. Monica Diedrich

This book is about listening to pets . . . . . . and talking to pets . . . . . . about how to help pets heal . . . . . . and about how they help us to heal. It’s about my Life Assignment . . . . . . and possibly about yours. It’s about the Universal Truths of Spirit, Life, and Love. Whether a person believes in God, a Supreme Being, or the Big Bang, there is always a philosophical expression we live by. Regardless of your philosophy, religious faith, or creed, each of you should bring to this book your own favorite words to express these Universal Truths that help convey your idea of God. As I wrote these chapters, I used expressions for God, Spirit, Life, and Love with which I’m most familiar, those that touch my heart. My hope is that the expressions I’ve used will touch your heart, also, or that you’ll be able to freely adjust them in your own mind to those that are your chosen favorites. Regardless of the specific terms I may have used in order to keep the presentation simple, my desire is that each of you will find your own sense of spirituality in this book. It matters little to our animal friends what our religious or philosophical preferences are. Their only purpose in life is to give us Unconditional Love and teach us how to Love Unconditionally. Love is their religion, their philosophy. And through the deep Love you and your pet share, I know you’ll be able to joyfully speak to each other’s hearts! On a very practical note, for ease of expression, there are a few places in this book where I may have opted not to follow one of the regular rules of grammar. I may have mixed a singular noun with plural pronouns, or vice versa, knowing full well that I’m taking the liberty of not matching singular with singular or plural with plural. I do so with apologies to editors, teachers, and anyone who loves exactness of expression. Also for ease of both writing and reading in a number of examples, I’ve occasionally referred to a pet only as “he” or only as “she.” However, in your own mind as you read, please feel free to use the pronoun that best represents your own beloved pet. ~ Dr. Monica Anaheim, CA

For Pet's Sake, Do Something! Book Three

How to Heal Your Pets Using Alternative and Complementary Therapies (Mom's Choice Award Recipient)

By: Dr. Monica Diedrich

What can I do to make my pet more comfortable when he or she has to cope with pain, illness, or a chronic condition?” “How can I improve my pet’s overall health?” I can’t begin to tell you how many people have asked me these two questions during individual consultations and workshops. At times, their requests for information have compelled me to search for more effective answers than I was able to provide at the moment. For that reason, I’m very grateful to my clients and students since they’ve often piqued my curiosity to learn much more about topics I might never have researched any further on my own. Because of their queries, while I was writing my second book, Pets Have Feelings, Too!, ideas were already swirling around in my mind for a third book—a “how to” book that would help as many pet parents as possible by answering those two questions, and more. My dream was to compile information, all in a single book, about as wide a variety of healing modalities as I possibly could. However, the single book quickly grew so large it soon developed into a series of three books. They’re all published under the umbrella title For Pet’s Sake, Do Something! and they’re each about how you can help your pets heal and enjoy optimum health every day. I first discovered the importance of “doing something” myself when one of my own dogs seemed to be giving up on life. At the tender age of two, my Shih Tzu, Chop Chop, was in severe pain because of hip dysplasia and a pinched nerve. He spent hours lying with his eyes fixed on the horizon as if his life had no more meaning for him. I felt I’d most likely have to make a decision soon to give him the final respite he was looking for. Meanwhile, I was both desperate and discouraged because there didn’t seem to be anything more I could do to help him. He’d already been seen by two different veterinarians and each one had given him only a bleak prognosis. Not only that, but medications were no longer able to provide the hoped for relief. It seemed he was very close to death, and the next day, I would probably have to make a final decision for him. That night, all I could do was to lie beside him on the floor, crying buckets of tears, but at least I was keeping him company and comforting him as best I could. I’d known, ever since I was eight years old, about the special intuitive gift I had, but at that moment, my gift for being able to talk with animals was the farthest thing from my mind. I was unable to think creatively or sense anything intuitively at all. What happened next, though, as I lay on the floor beside my precious pet, feeling utterly miserable and totally helpless, would be one of the greatest lessons I would ever learn. As clear as day, I heard Chop Chop say to me, “You call yourself a healer . . . so do something!” At first, I had no idea what I could do to bring him any other relief. In fact, his words played over and over in my mind for awhile before their meaning even became clear to me. Finally, with a flash of insight, I realized there was something more I could do. I’d been using the technique of Cosmic Healing Energy to help people for some time, but I’d never before thought about using it to help pets. However, now that Chop Chop was prompting me to be an active participant instead of a helpless bystander, I set aside my sense of desperation and immediately began sending him healing light energy. I not only sent him healing light myself, but I also asked the angels, saints, sages, and healers of all space, times, and dimensions to join me, as well as guide and help me be an effective transmitter of Spirit’s ever present healing light and love. Even when I consciously thought I was finished with the treatment, my hands intuitively kept moving as if they knew exactly where to touch, press, and pull. When the flow of healing energy stopped, I thanked everyone for their help and was filled with gratitude and reverence. When I went to bed that night, it was with the confidence of knowing I’d now been able to “Do something” positive for Chop Chop’s highest good, regardless of what the outcome might be. What happened the next morning was nothing short of miraculous. He stood up on all four legs and shook his mane! He hadn’t been able to do either of those things for quite some time because his hind quarters had been paralyzed. Within a week of receiving regular healing treatments, he was completely back to being his normal self! Most of you won’t ever be faced with quite such an extraordinary situation, and it’s important to realize that not every spiritual healing treatment brings about a physical cure as this one did, but you will have many opportunities in everyday life when your pets need healing help in a variety of other ways, too. That’s why it’s been so important to me to write this series of books—to empower you to be an active participant instead of a helpless bystander. By implementing some of the healing techniques I’ve shared with you, you may be able to help your pet maintain optimum health, manage more comfortably through chronic illness or pain, or even recover from a serious illness or injury. This third book of the series is designed to provide you with guidelines for using alternative and complementary methods of healing. Many of them have a long and successful history of use, and many, that at first may seem to be unconventional, are actually scientifically supported. Some you’ll be able to use right away after reading about them, while others will require study or further research on your part in order to use them correctly. You’ll also learn about various healing modalities a professional can provide for your pet. The topics we’ll cover in this third book of the series include: • Flower Essences for restoring spiritual balance to help relieve both physical and emotional symptoms • Essential Oils that quickly and effectively transport oxygen and nutrients into every cell of the body for physical and emotional healing • Homeopathy—a healing system based on the principle that like heals like • Magnetic Therapy, Reflexology, and Massage for pain relief, relaxation, reducing anxiety, and promoting overall wellbeing • Sound, in its many different healing forms, which serves as a bridge between body, mind, and spirit • Color that can influence how a pet feels and behaves • Crystals as an effective means for focusing healing energy • Incense fragrances for healing emotional and behavioral imbalances • Animal Communication and the importance of healing at every level—spiritual, mental, and emotional—to bring about lasting physical healing • Acupuncture and Acupressure to eliminate blockages in the body’s energy system • Chiropractic to correct misalignments in a pet’s body • Hydrotherapy to promote healing in a weightless environment Another chapter you may find helpful shows you how to pre-test remedies before you buy or use them. Using the techniques I’ve described may help you discover ahead of time whether or not a certain modality is the right one to use for your pet, or this type of pre-testing may save you from spending money on something that wouldn’t be beneficial for your pet. It’s also important to know how pets age, what emergency kit supplies to have on hand and first aid procedures to use, as well as how to provide for your pets when you’re no longer there, so I’ve included chapters about these topics also. If you’re able to ease your pet’s pain, or provide a better quality of life by implementing any of the healing techniques described in this book, or in any of the books of this series, the time and money you’ve spent will be well worth it. My teacher and beloved animal friend, Chop Chop, finally did pass on at almost fourteen years of age, but what he asked me to do, when he was only two years old, touched not only our own lives, but also the lives of many other pets and pet parents as well. Though he and I were both on the verge of giving up many years ago, he taught me that I didn’t have to be a helpless bystander and that I could “Do something!” I hope you’ll “Do something” for your precious pets, too! Remember, we can’t always do great things in life, but we can do small things with great love. This is exactly the lesson our animal friends teach us—whatever you do, do it with unconditional love. * * * You can learn more about the contents of each book in the series by turning to the Epilogue at the end of this book. You can read Chop Chop’s entire story in Chapter 1 of my first book, What Animals Tell Me. You can also learn how to use Cosmic Healing yourself in Chapter 6 of Book 1 of the series For Pet’s Sake, Do Something! How to Communicate With Your Pets and Help Them Heal. Sometimes, my clients will ask if I still use Cosmic Healing to help people as well as pets. Many years ago, I did, but there are so many animals who need my help today that I now devote all of my time to working exclusively with them. Dr. Monica Diedrich

What Your Animals Tell Me

Through True Stories, An Animal Communicator Reveals the Fascinating and Heart-Warming Inner World of Our Pets

By: Dr. Monica Diedrich

“You do what?” people exclaim in amazement when I tell them I am an animal communicator. “And how exactly do you do that?” they ask. “Well,” I reply, “I get pictures in my mind like clips of a movie. These pictures tell me whether an animal is happy or sad, if it’s longing for something, or satisfied with its life. They show me their wants, desires, needs and their hurts.” The images I receive do not refer to time, so it may be hard to place the content of the picture in the past, present or future. Also, the meaning depends greatly on the circumstances surrounding the event or the context of the situation. The images are often accompanied by impressions, feelings, tastes, sounds, and smells. I use all my senses when I am receiving the picture clips so, when I see a scene, I also know how the animal feels about what I’m seeing. Occasionally, I call myself an animal behaviorist, which is tongue-in- cheek because most of the time, any behavioral change called for is on the part of the human and not the pet. People often assume that, because I communicate with animals, I grew up close to them, observing them and sharing their lives. In fact, I grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a busy metropolitan city, surrounded by apartment buildings. The downtown area, where skyscrapers competed for the sky and for how many apartments or offices they could contain, was no place for pets. To see the slightest hint of green, I had to walk to a park, the lungs of the city, a couple of miles away. When I was eight, my family bought a summer home about two hours away from the city. It was a large Spanish-style home surrounded by lush green, and lots of fruit trees. It was a little piece of heaven, away from the noise of taxi horns and exhaust fumes. All of my three-month long school vacations were spent there and, on one such vacation, I realized that I could hear animals’ thoughts. On the corner next to us were neighbors who had emigrated from Europe. They had a farm and everyone within 30 miles knew the family and sought them out for fresh produce. They also raised chickens for eggs, cows for milk, a few work horses, a couple of dogs and some barn cats. We felt lucky to have them nearby as it meant that we would not starve, even during bad summer floods. I would often go next door to buy milk and eggs. On one occasion, I was given a tour of the farm and saw a new mother pig with about 20 piglets beside her. I was surprised to hear her complain about how incredibly tired she found nursing her young. As I “heard” this, she was looking right at me, and it was clear to me that I was not imagining it. I was paralyzed by this phenomenon and couldn’t move for a long while. From then on, I volunteered to go for supplies all the time so that I could talk to the animals. Once a dog tied to a tree told me how hot he was and laughed about the beating he received the previous day for breaking his chain. He said, “It didn’t hurt that much, and besides it was worth it. I got to inspect the whole ranch and marked everything. Now, even if I’m tied down most of the day, everyone will know it’s all mine.” I also heard a cow that warmly offered me some freshly squeezed milk, and the chickens complained about the new arrogant young cock. At such a young age, I took these things for granted, never realizing that not everyone had this gift. I simply replied to the animals and went on playing. It was not always pleasant, however. One day, a dog was about to be beaten and I really heard his desperate cry for help. The man undid his belt and called the dog to his side. The faithful animal, well aware of what was going to happen, obediently trotted over to him, shoulders sloughing down, head looking at the ground, and tail curled low between his legs. He looked at me and screamed, “Tell him to stop, tell him not to do it.” “Please don’t hurt him,” I begged the owner, but to no avail. “He needs to be taught a lesson,” the man said gruffly. Filled with anger and disbelief, I turned and walked away, the dog’s cries ringing in my head. His pain was my pain. I ran home and vowed to never experience this again. It wasn’t until my eighteenth birthday that I realized I was different, and began asking why I got extrasensory information from people and animals but others didn’t. Why was vivid déjà vu an everyday occurrence? Why could I foretell events? For example, in conversations, I routinely knew what someone would say next. This was a matter of mild curiosity for me until the day my world stopped. I had just married and we went to a furniture store to buy furnishings for our new apartment. The moment I set foot in the store, I started to see a “movie” that showed me what the two-level store looked like, and I noted that the sweeping main staircase reminded me of the one in Gone with the Wind. I saw how every piece of furniture that we would buy was already in our new apartment. And I suddenly discovered why I was there and why this was happening. The picture inside my head showed me a little girl playing on the staircase accidentally fall and break several bones. My mind raced. What am I supposed to do, I wondered. Has this already happened? Or is it about to happen? And if so, what am I supposed to do? Stop the little girl? Tell her mother? WILL SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TO DO, I screamed internally. The movie played for several minutes, during which time I actually saw a little girl begin to play on the staircase. She was jumping to the first step, then turning around and jumping to the ground. The next time, she jumped two steps and turned to jump back to the ground level. She did this several times, each time jumping up one more step before turning and jumping down. I was motionless, watching and reliving my premonition. I counted six steps and, as I saw her begin to turn, I screamed. This startled her and she shifted her weight so that, unlike the premonition, she was only bruised, with no broken bones. She still cried and screamed for her mother but I felt so good when I saw her stand up and run to her family. Somehow my scream had changed the outcome. Shaken and confused, I wondered to whom I could speak about this. Who would understand? Would I be judged weird or worse, insane? I decided to say nothing to anybody, except God, the Universe, or whoever out there was in charge and hopefully listening. “If I am never shown any bad things, then I will accept this gift and put it to work in helping people and animals. I will honor this promise as long as you never, ever show me scary things again.” Getting over the furniture store incident took many years. By then, however, I knew what the word “psychic” meant. I had read all the books by Jane Roberts in which she channels an entity named Seth, and was glad to learn that I wasn’t the only one who was “strange.” Jane Roberts had the same doubts that I had and as she recounted that she was, in fact, her own worst skeptic and critic, I began to feel more at ease. Then came other authors. And so my path began. How will I use my gift in a positive way to help animals, I wondered. I reasoned that when you meet new people, you begin by asking them about themselves. So why not just do the same with the animals? I will ask them questions, and they will answer, I decided. As I would come to find, animals are usually happy to describe their personality so that I can get to know them quickly. For example, they may describe themselves as “a little lady,” “an old grouch,” “an adventurer,” or ”a couch potato.” Sometimes they explain their interaction with family members. They might tell me, for instance, that they are very close to Mom or Dad. (Most animals hold a parental-like image of their humans, so ‘Mom’ or ‘Dad’ often comes to mind.) Members of a multi-pet household talk about who is “top dog.” A few talk about “friends” when describing the humans with whom they share a home. Amazingly, even those who are beaten and cursed talk lovingly about their families. Some give me deep spiritual messages while others talk about their favorite food or activity. They all talk about love, about patience, and about having a job to do. Their jobs vary and are the most important part of their lives. Dogs, for instance, might take care of the house, watch for strangers, keep an eye on the kids, prohibit the cat from entering the room, or watch the baby. Outside dogs can go hunting, fishing, hiking or herding. No matter what the job is, they always enjoy doing it well. They want to please their human companions and see them happy. Cats, on the other hand, are more independent. Although some of them have a job, their main desire is to sleep, sunbathe, and do exactly what they want (as opposed to what you want). Still, they balance their wants and desires so that the relationship can be give-and-take. Granted, some of you give more than you take ... or do you? At times, it seems as if our animals give us a lot more than we offer them. Their unconditional love is always there for us, regardless of how we treat them, and that far outweighs any payment or sacrifice that we can make. Many of the stories in this book reveal that often our animals’ main purpose is to teach us something about ourselves, and if they don’t achieve that purpose in one lifetime, they will reincarnate back with us to continue their work. This may involve an animal getting the same sickness as its human guardian. With one of my clients, the animal died while she made a complete recovery. Understanding the role of our animals and what they do is sometimes far beyond our comprehension. By their actions, they mirror your feelings, showing you whether you’re having a good day or a bad one. By being stressed themselves, they show you how stressed you are. Even when you show no outward signs of stress, they sense it because they can see your aura (the energy field surrounding your physical body) and become sponges, absorbing your stress for themselves. This helps you feel more relaxed. And what do you do then? You pet them and tell them you love them. They, in turn, show you their tummy, look at you with adoring eyes or simply purrrrrrrr .... Purring signifies a magnificent feeling of contentment. To make your kitty purr with delight means that you must be a wonderful person. She needs you to show love and you do. In return, she shows you just how special you are. After all, she doesn’t purr for just anyone! When our animals speak to us, they say things they need us to hear. They seldom complain, but do want us to see their perspective. It’s not enough for us just to understand what they’re saying, though; often we must also take some action. If, during a consultation, I tell you that the reason your cat refuses to use her litter box is because it’s dirty, I get concerned if you give me excuses such as, “I work long hours and get home tired,” “I can’t change the location of his box!” or, “He always liked that brand of litter before.” I can’t change your animal’s mind; I can only tell you what they tell me. It’s up to you to act on it and do the changing. Some people scoff when pet lovers ascribe human-like feelings to their animals. As an emotional empath, I disagree; every day, animals share their feelings with me. They can also rationalize what they want and what they prefer, and events and circumstances to do with home and family. It is my hope that this book will open a door in your mind. Even if you question my gift, please strive to be receptive to the insights it offers. And know that I have been as truthful and honest in every detail as I possibly can. Some of these consultations are on audio cassette for my reference, and others have been verified with the animal’s owner. The stories are all true! Hopefully, this book will reveal the rich and deep inner world of our pets, so that owners may appreciate them more. Animals know far more about what is happening in their lives—and yours—than we give them credit for. And as you will see, they have souls that survive physical death as do we, and often watch over us from the other side. For clarification in the following accounts, I have put the animals’ communications to me in quotation marks, as if they are speaking. Sometimes, I do in fact hear actual words; when it is important, I get the whole sentence and, other times, I get a few words with the movie clip. I hope this conveys the to-and-fro nature of our telepathic “conversations.” So please relax and enjoy each chapter, filled with the animals’ insights and perceptions, and walk alongside their families to experience how animals affect, enrich and enlighten our lives every day.

For Pet's Sake, Do Something! Book One

How to Communicate with Your Pets and Help Them Heal (Mom's Choice Award Recipient)

By: Dr. Monica Diedrich

“Where can pet parents go to find a compilation of information that will help them support their pets’ various physical, emotional and spiritual needs?” A frequently asked question in my practice—Dr. Monica There usually comes a time toward the end of our pets’ lives when we need to let go and let nature take its course. But in the face of most of the distresses and health challenges our pets encounter in daily living, we don’t need to stand by crying helplessly and feeling sad. We can—Do Something! Yet, where can pet parents go to find a compilation of information, which will help them support their pets’ various physical, emotional and spiritual needs? As I finished writing my second book, Pets Have Feelings Too!, it was this very question that impelled me to begin yet another book—one that would be a “how to” guide for everyone who wants to do everything they can to help their pets, especially when their pets are in distress or experiencing health challenges of any kind. It all began with my desire to respond to the question, asked by so many of my clients and students over the years, “How can I talk with my pets?” But there were so many other topics which sprang to mind as I continued to write that before I knew it, I had enough material for a series of three “how to” books: • How To Communicate With Your Pets and Help Them Heal; • How To Heal Your Pets Using Nutrition, Herbs and Supplements; and • How To Heal Your Pets Using Alternative Therapies This, the first book in the series, begins by teaching you how to communicate with your pets about everyday things, as well as their health challenges. But discovering what your pets want to tell you is only the beginning. Once you’re truly aware of their needs, you must then Do Something! That “something” usually involves restoring balance and harmony in their lives. So, the second part of the first book shows you how to use spiritual and energetic healing methods as one way to bring about that balance and harmony. There are also a series of guided meditations to enable you to help your pet cope with a variety of life situations. The second book of the series covers the importance of nutrition, herbs and supplements, plus foods to avoid, and recipes for pets with special needs. The third book presents practical healing modalities including homeopathy, flower essences, incense, essential oils, crystals, color, sound, massage, magnets, hydrotherapy, acupressure, acupuncture and chiropractic, plus some other helpful guidance. As I was writing all three books, I knew many readers would wonder what qualifies me to teach people how to communicate with and heal their animals. What experiences and training did I have that prepared me not only to do this, but also to teach others to do the same? To answer this question, I’d like to share a few of the highlights of my life with you. I’ve known that I can understand what animals are saying ever since I was eight years old. However, when I was young, other children used to call me weird or crazy, and that was very painful. I didn’t want to be different, so I tried hard to push aside the images animals were sending me and make believe I wasn’t receiving them. But by my late teens, I began to realize that what I was experiencing was a gift—one that was becoming virtually impossible to ignore. So I nurtured this gift, and soon I grew more confident about using my abilities. I began communicating with many different species of pets and was delighted to be able to help them and their humans better understand each other. In time, I realized that I’d taken the first step on the path of what I considered to be my Life Assignment. But I’d also been searching for answers to many spiritual questions for the better part of my life. The answers to those questions came one at a time over several years. I read a lot of books and attended many classes. One of those classes, offered by a Vietnamese gentleman, Master Tam Nguyen, would change the direction of the rest of my life and teach me how to use my intuitive gift more fully. From him, I learned that healing is about restoring balance and harmony, that healing is available to everyone, and that we can bring about healing for ourselves and for others. During the last week of Master Tam’s class, he was able to help me experience the Life Force Energy that always surrounds every living being. This loving, healing Light and Energy surrounded me in a way I’d never felt it before. When the class exercise was over, I was crying. For the first time in my life, I’d been able to feel this energy. It came charged with such Love that I felt God had just embraced me. Master Tam approached me after class and encouraged me to continue to learn to let this loving, healing Energy flow through me for the benefit of others. He also invited me to come to his Center. I think I went the first time because I was curious, but I kept going back because I was learning so much about helping others to heal, not only spiritually, but also physically. I was drawn to return again and again. Observing many healing experiences filled me with the desire to further deepen my knowledge and understanding of metaphysics, and it was this study that would gently lead me along the path of unconditional love. And what better way to express unconditional Love for someone than by bringing balance and harmony into their lives through healing. Through Master Tam’s teachings, I’d already been introduced to the technique of Cosmic Healing, which helps every living being function, as it should in perfect harmony with the Universe. Cosmic Healing doesn’t use any physical modalities like touch or medicine. Instead, it’s done spiritually, from the heart, and with love. This type of healing requires direct communion with the Source of All Life, God, Spirit, Life Force, Supreme Being, All That Is. In the process of learning to tune in to this loving, healing Energy, the skeptic in me reacted by asking, “If healing energy always surrounds everyone all the time, why isn’t everyone accessing it more often? And why do we see so much sickness around us? What, if anything, can we do to bring healing to others, or to help people find healing for themselves?” With patience and further experience, I began to understand that often, people in need of healing haven’t learned to ask for help, or they feel they don’t deserve it. Most of them know they want to be healed but they don’t ask to be healed. They may not even know how to ask. So what should we do to find effective healing? First, we need to believe that healing is possible, that it does take place, and that we can heal ourselves. We also need to have confidence that the healing energy of The Universe can flow through us, or flow to us through others. Above all, the person needing healing, and the person helping, must take time to be in communion, or attunement, with the one true Source of All Life. Then we must stop looking at the problem itself and start focusing on our connectedness to, and our oneness with, the Source of our Being, the Source of our balance and harmony. When we once again fully remember our oneness with Spirit, we’re then able to manifest abundant good health for ourselves and for others. For a number of years, I helped many people heal, and I communicated with many pets about everyday things, but I’d never thought about combining my gift for healing with my gift for communicating with animals. It was one of my own precious Shih- Tzus who would show me the way. Chop Chop was only two years old when, one day, he was lying beside me with his eyes fixed somewhere on the horizon. He was giving up, and death seemed to be looming not many hours away from him. Unable to think clearly, all I could do was to keep him company, crying because there didn’t seem to be anything else I could do to help him. Two different veterinarians had already closely examined him. Medications were no longer effective, and the prognosis was very bleak. I lay on blankets on the floor next to him to give him what comfort I could. But as I reclined there beside him on the floor, feeling very sad and miserable, he sent me a telepathic message just as clear as day: “You call yourself a healer. You’ve helped a lot of people. So Do Something!” He now looked me straight in the eye as he prompted me to be an active participant, not just a sorrowful bystander. What he said to me kept playing over and over again in my mind until I finally got it. His plea was very simple, yet I hadn’t thought to use spiritual healing for him, or for other animals for that matter. I’d only used it to help people. But that was about to change. He responded, literally overnight, to the first healing treatment I gave him, and within a week of continued treatments, he was completely back to being his normal happy self. You can read the full account of his story in Chapter 1 of my first book, What Your Animals Tell Me. Thanks to the lesson Chop Chop taught me, I knew, then, that it was time to combine my gift for healing spiritually with my gift for communicating with animals. There were many other intuitives available to help heal people, so from then on, I resolved to dedicate my life exclusively to helping only animals. My work now includes not only private consultations for pets, but also presenting classes, workshops and lectures, as well as doing extensive research, and writing books to share with others all that I’ve learned about how we can make life better for our beloved pets. During the early part of my experience with Chop Chop, I could only cry, feel sorry for myself and for him, and wait for the inevitable. I felt completely inadequate, totally devoid of ideas, and utterly helpless. Later on, it occurred to me that many pet parents often feel just as I did whenever they’re faced with their pets’ illnesses. But you don’t need to go through those same feelings because there are so many things you can do, either to help your pets heal, or at least go through the process of their illness or pain with less discomfort. To help you, I’ve described as many healing modalities as possible in the three books of this series, For Pet’s Sake, Do Something! If you’re able to ease your pet’s pain, or provide quality of life for another day, week, month or even longer by implementing any of the healing techniques described in these books, your time and money spent on them will have been well worth it. My teacher and beloved animal friend, Chop Chop, taught me that I didn’t have to be a bystander. Thanks to him, when I was on the verge of giving up, I discovered instead that I could Do Something! I hope you’ll Do Something too. Healing can be brought about in many ways, not only for your pets, but also for yourself. When you’re able to be an active participant in your pet’s care, or bring peace and comfort to your pet because you’ve been able to Do Something, your spirit will also be healed.

Alexander Cartwright

The Life Behind the Baseball Legend

By: Monica Nucciarone

Alexander Joy Cartwright Jr. (1820?92) was present during the organization of the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club of New York in the mid-1800s. That much is certain. Since that time, and especially with his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1938, Cartwright has been celebrated as the founder of our national pastime, much like Abner Doubleday. As with Doubleday, Cartwright?s claim to fame has caused all sorts of conjecture and controversy. His complex life, not just the mythography surrounding him, comes clearly into focus in Monica Nucciarone?s biography of the incomparable Cartwright. ø Through journal entries, letters, and newspaper clippings, Nucciarone traces Cartwright?s path from Elysian Fields in New Jersey to a gold-rush adventure in California, and on to Honolulu, where he became involved in the movement to annex Hawaii to the United States. Beginning with the widely held notion that Cartwright created the game of baseball as we know it today, then spread it across North America to Hawaii like a Johnny Appleseed, Nucciarone?s book separates fact from speculation. Although the picture that emerges may not be the Alexander Cartwright of legend, it shows us a man as colorful, complicated, and immense in character?and as worthy of the history books?as any legend he inspired.

Fillmore

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Fillmore

By: Carina Monica Montoya

Fillmore is nestled at the foot of the Topatopa Mountains at the confluence of the Santa Clara River and Sespe Creek. The town was formed in 1887 and named after Jerome A. Fillmore, who was the general superintendent for the Southern Pacific Railroad at the time. The rail line enabled passenger travel and the transport of commercial agricultural products, and it put Fillmore on the map. Incorporated in 1914, Fillmore is one of the oldest incorporated towns in Ventura County and is designated as part of the county's agricultural greenbelt. Fillmore's history is based on it being located on some of the most productive agricultural and oil-rich lands in the country. Today, it is still a predominately agricultural town that supplies citrus, avocados, and a variety of vegetable crops around the country and abroad. It is a hidden small-town gem in Southern California, and its downtown architecture epitomizes small-town charm, making it a popular tourist destination and site for film and television productions.
