Animal communication was an amazing revelation after my childhood cat ascended in 2003, confirming a wholehearted belief. I seized a workshop that came to Manitoba. When our beloved boy went missing in 2017, I wanted to brush-up. We are anguished that his Mom & Dad went to the afterlife last year! I urgently learned energy healing and seek books geared for cats. I saw “Communication With All Life: How To Understand And Talk To Animals”, 2007, second-hand but disliked it so much, I would grade it with two stars if I did not recognize that Joan Ranquet means well. I no longer want her healing book, unless I encounter it in a bargain bin locally.

My circle has so long comprised animal lovers that equal sentience goes without saying but I will state the obvious for the benefit of future communicators or healers. No life is above another; we only have different interests and biological needs. If people thought they were smarter for speaking & replying in mutual conversations, the realization that all animals understand and answer telepathically nullifies that notion. It is humans who failed to hear them! I was glad I happened to become vegetarian the year I witnessed it myself. Species, brain size, and word count estimation are completely irrelevant. We just talk soul to soul. If I encounter an animal communicator who subscribes to those antiquated beliefs and eats critters, they lose credibility.

I love horses as powerful, soulful beings. My interest in racing or animal shows is nil, which promotes breeding instead of rescuing. I loathe anyone treating cats as decorative, who deem dogs their “real pets”. Cats and telepathic instruction were hardly present! Anyone new wanting to learn intuitive communication, would be furious that Joan mostly rants about logical animal care throughout this book.

I love this book. Gives me tools to use in trying to understand my animals and be understood by them. Reaffirms that using my intuition is a good thing to do.

I enjoyed this book. I thought she could have dived a little deeper with more "how to", but I did get some good tips.

I highly recommend Communication With All Life: How To Understand And Talk To Animals. This book would be extremely beneficial to the novice, the experienced or the just curious. It’s a great book for anyone interested in legit instruction on animal communication. Joan Ranquet’s got a fabulous writing style and the material and ideas just flow, making the book an easy read.

The book’s introduction is a very personal story about Joan’s experience with two of her horses that is both heartbreaking and courageous. It provides the back drop for Joan’s motivation to study and train in animal communication.

Joan’s stories and case studies are not only relevant to the narrative, they are uplifting in tone and most describe break throughs with animals and their human companions. They further serve to highlight both Joan’s experience and knowledge of animal communication, which are unselfishly shared in the book and provide invaluable insights.

Joan introduces the reader to many important concepts, some of which may never have crossed your mind (household dynamics, pictures you’re sending your animals, and what your animals may already be teaching you). I was also reminded to be the ‘emotional leader’ in the house for my skittish cat, which has made trips to the vet less stressful, as well as helping my cat with unexpected changes (i.e., food, routine, repositioning of a chair, introduction of a yoga mat, etc.).

I am studying animal communication myself, and I feel so fortunate to have come across this book.

I purchased this book following a workshop with Joan Ranquet. That was many years ago. Now that I have increased my animal family to include 2 horses and a dog I find that I want to understand them better so I pulled this book off my bookshelf. I love her approach. Even if I never get to the point where I can effectively communicate with my animals I can appreciate those who can. I hired someone who has trained work Joan and received a lot of insight into my animals, especially my older horse. My appreciation for all animals has increased since reading this book.
