Writing on a pet topic

Tonee said she was born able to communicate telepathically with animals, and, after studying education, business and counselling, found she had a gift for healing.

After a workplace injury kept her from her former employment, she reworked a seven-year-old manuscript.

Tonee said the book explained nine reasons people had pets and how owners could help keep their pets healthy.

"You will see your pets, and your relationship with your pets, in a new light," she said.

"This book is about remembering and relearning how important you are to this planet and all the animals on it; that you make a difference, and how vital your pets can be to this awakening."
