What to Expect: Pets, grief and loss, memories, the afterlife.
Pets very quickly become members of any family they live with, and because their lives are considerably shorter than most humans, their bond with children can be both rewarding and—when it’s time for it to end—heart-breaking.
Miew-Miew is a fortunate cat—she was rescued by a loving family when she was just a kitten, injured and abandoned in the street. For 12 years, Miew-Miew has lived a life filled with love, laughter, and comfort. However, her rough start to life has taken a toll, and now Miew-Miew is not her usual self. With her appetite and energy fading, her family is grief-stricken to realize that Miew-Miew is reaching the end of her happy life. However, the family can take comfort in one thing—the end of Miew-Miew’s earthly body won’t be the end for her spirit. Miew-Miew is on her way to Óg go Deo – the world of the Forever Young.
In this touching story, readers will share a family’s journey of grief and healing as they say goodbye to a beloved pet. Any pet-loving reader is sure to relate to the strong bonds and kindness of the family in this story, who are both vulnerable and caring. The afterlife waiting for pets after death is painted in loving, comforting detail, helping readers use their imaginations to heal from loss.
Óg go Deo is a beautiful story about the love we hold for our pets and how that love will help us live through the grief of losing them.
