Houston, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Feb 13, 2026 @ 11:05 AM US/Central —
Every year, millions of pet owners face the agonizing “limbo” of end-of-life care—a period marked by difficult medical decisions, anticipatory grief, and the looming weight of a final goodbye. In her new book, Furry Mortals: The Oliver Project, author Angela Human provides a much-needed bridge between the professional world of end-of-life logistics and the raw, personal heart of a pet parent.
Inspired by the loss of her beloved pet, Oliver, Angela brings a unique perspective to the subject. As a veteran of the deathcare industry, she has spent decades navigating the intersection of technology and memorialization. When faced with Oliver’s decline, she realized that even with her professional background, the emotional and practical hurdles of pet loss were overwhelming.
Furry Mortals: The Oliver Project moves beyond traditional manuals by weaving together expert palliative advice with a collection of poignant stories from pet parents who have walked this road. These narratives provide a raw, honest look at the diverse ways people navigate loss, ensuring readers never feel alone in their decisions.
“Loss is universal, but the path through it is deeply personal,” Angela explains. “By sharing these stories alongside practical guidance, I wanted to create a space where pet parents feel seen, heard, and supported by a tribe of people who truly ‘get it.’”
Key Takeaways from the Book:
Navigating the “Limbo”: Strategies for managing the anticipatory grief that occurs as a pet’s health declines.

After decades on the “human side” of deathcare, Angela has expanded her advocacy to animal companions.
