Soul Cats

How Our Feline Friends Teach Us to Live from the Heart

De: Tamara Schenk

“Life often offers miracles; you just have to see them and take action.” (Max)

Sometimes life calls upon us to take matters into our own paws.

Soul Cats is a book that carries with it a very special and personal mission. The dying wish of “soul cat” Max was for his human guardian to write this very book, as he passed away just a few short weeks after.

Within the chapters lies a story overflowing with deep love between Max, Flix, Howy, and their human guardians. Together, their love is the prevailing force that sees them through times of significant challenges.

Our animal-human relationships exist on a plane of consciousness that transcends that of our relationships between other humans. Soul Cats puts the listener in the perfect center of our animal-human relationship, engaging in a journey about communication, true connection, distress, and the light that gets us all through it.

We all come with our own mental and physical baggage, something that older cats from the animal shelter share in common with us. Soul Cats explores the symbiotic healing power of cats and their humans caring for one another until they one day cross the rainbow bridge on their own terms.

Soul Cats is teeming with stories - following the alpha cat Max, cerebral thinker Flix, and the ever-bright Howy. The cats and their human guardians experience situations laced with joy and emotion, but also those of profound and sobering reality.

At its core, Soul Cats makes an indisputable case for how conventional medicine, natural healing methods, and energy clearing work can create a powerful trinity of relief and deep meaning in our lives.

The experience of listening to Soul Cats is one that touches the soul of the listener. It’s a beautiful story that weaves together courage, deep care, and shows the power that a legacy of love can produce.

“Let love and joy be your guiding principles.” (Howy)

cat lover

this was a sweet story about cats at the end of life. exactly what it's like having senior cats

Beautiful Story

I loved it and it was exactly what I needed right now. Having lost my soul cat of 14 years a few months ago, I was drawn to this book... I kept putting it off thinking I wasn't ready. But my soul Cat Gus must have been pushing me to read this now. I'm so grateful, and I really appreciate this story! I've always knew I could communicate with animals but learning how more there is to it brings me so much motivation to continue my path. Thank you to the wonderful author for sharing her stories!

A "fur family" journey that does not disappoint

The companionship of pets is a blessing. Learning and growing through your extended "fur family" -- those whom we have hand-picked to do life with us -- can be a healing and inspiring journey for ALL involved.

Disclaimer: I'm much more of a "dog dude" than a cat person, but I was fully inspired by Tamara's fur family's journey. The fact that she hand-picked (rescued from shelters!) three senior cats with three unknown histories set the stage. And just because they were hand-picked clearly didn't mean that they didn't come with baggage and challenges to overcome ...just like all of us who have lived a bit of life. Her detail of the unveiling of those histories, and the healing process to create a "forever home" for them can be a template for all of us to follow far beyond just our furry friends. Unveiling more with each new chapter all the way through end-of-life.

Tamara takes us on a journey of how unpacking, embracing and addressing that "baggage" as a family can be a beacon of life-giving light to all involved -- the trust, love, time, patience and clarity that is called for / created in the course of that journey. It is a journey that I highly recommend you take, ESPECIALLY if you are a cat person ...but even if not, I'm sure you will enjoy, and benefit from, the voyage.
