Animal Communication for Pet Loss: Questions to Ask Your Pet in Spirit
The early days of grieving the loss of a pet can be brutal.
In this post, I’m sharing what kinds of things your pet may want to talk with you about in an animal communication session and a few questions to ask them now that they are on the other side.
Dear Intuitive one,
When the house is suddenly too empty and you can’t sense your pet’s physical presence around you, but everywhere you look, you see reminders of your animal friend and the life you shared, it can feel like nothing feels right or fair.
Even if their passing was peaceful, even if you know they are no longer in pain, and even if you feel certain they were ready, the grief of losing a pet can be overwhelming.
Questioning our decisions after pet loss
And then come the big questions….
Are they okay? Are they safe? Is someone looking out for them? Did I do the right thing? Do they still know how much I love them? Did I wait too long? Should I have given them just a little more time? Is my pet mad at me for putting them down?
When these kinds of thoughts flood in from the darkest corners of your grief, in some ways may feel worse than the grief of losing them in the first place.
I get it. Unfortunately, all too well.
It’s like when you have poured so much love and care into the friendship with your pet, and then suddenly all of that energy has nowhere to go, it shifts, and our brain starts searching for understanding, to try to make sense of this new reality.
A new reality where it feels like a piece of your heart is missing.
What is in-spirit animal communication like?
Animal communication isn’t a magic pill that can make your grief go away, but it can help by giving you a touch point to know where you can point your intuitive antenna, so you can at least sense their spirit on the other side in the days and months ahead.
It can also give you a moment to just touch base with them and check in to make sure they are okay and transform the worry and self-doubt that creeps in after helping a pet pass.
The intuitive process of communicating with pets after they have passed is the same as with pets who are alive. But there are a few minor differences in what your pet will most likely want to talk with you about.
In my experience, after pets pass, some want to talk about the process of dying, and some don’t. Often, those who don’t want to talk about their passing instead focus on sharing details of their life that they are missing or giving advice about caring for other members of the animal friends they left behind. And many share how they are feeling about their experiences, rather than the life they left behind, now that they are on the other side.
If you have an animal communication session set up with your in-spirit pet, or are intuitively tuning in with them on your own, here are a few questions I suggest asking to help ease your broken heart
6 questions to ask your in-spirit pet
Can you tell me about what it is like for you where you are now?
Is there anything you want me to know about your passing?
What do you feel your purpose was this lifetime?
What did you learn during your life with me?
What do you feel the other animals in our home need to adjust to your physical absence?
Do you have any advice for me for my life going forward?

“I had an incredible session with Joanna shortly after the passing of my soul dog. I had never worked with an animal communicator before and Joanna absolutely blew any expectations I may have had out of the water.”
