Cats are notorious for being unable to make up their minds. And the phantom felines in Ghost Cats 2: More Afterlife Encounters with Feline Spirits prove that, whether or not they have a heartbeat, cats are always on the wrong side of the door-even the Pearly Gates.
Award-winning journalist Dusty Rainbolt has assembled a collection of eyewitness accounts that provide haunting yet entertaining hints about our pets‘ afterlife destiny-as well as our own. Rainbolt’s narratives of things-that-headbump-in-the-night will have you laughing and crying. You’ll feel comfort as well as the occasional chill creep up your spine as you enjoy chapters on:
- GUARDIAN ANGELS who stand as dedicated protectors of their chosen humans
- FELINE HARBINGERS warning of impending tragedy
- Joyful but often brief appearances in FAMILY REUNIONS
- MANY HAPPY RETURNS that highlights reincarnation homecomings
- And mystified homeowners scratching their heads because that’s NOT MY GHOST CAT
