Coping with Pet Bereavement

Coping with Pet Bereavement
2

• When a pet first comes into your life, it feels
  like they will be there forever. You cant
  remember what life was like before them and cant
  imagine life without them. The sad thing is,
  house pets just dont have the lifespan we do and
  inevitably, there will come a time where you have
  to say goodbye.

• Whether the death is sudden, accidental, expected
  or planned through euthanasia really wont make a
  difference to the heartache you will feel. Losing
  a pet, no matter the circumstances, can be on par
  with losing another close human companion.

4

• As much as your mind might try to tell you there
  is a difference, your heart will say otherwise
  and you will grieve according to your heart.

• The pain may be fierce, come in waves, or be
  offset by emotions of anger or guilt but it will
  be real and it will be hard. Allow yourself to
  grieve as you need and do not feel ashamed or
  embarrassed by how much you are hurting.

7

• Enlist the support of family and friends you
  may need a shoulder to cry on, an open ear, or
  someone to just sit by your side. Those that love
  you will understand and be there for you.

• You will likely feel the need to commemorate the
  life of your dear pet. Do what feels right. Some
  people simply frame a photo or create an album
  while others hold memorial services, plant trees
  or make a charitable donation in their pets
  name. There are many ways to pay tribute to the
  life of your pet.

• Memorial stones are a lasting tribute to honor
  the life of your animal companion. This is a
  real, beautiful keepsake with your pets name,
  photo or clip-art graphic and small epitaph
  etched in real stone.

• Perfect for the burial site at the pet cemetery
  or as a memento kept in your home or garden,
  memorial stones offer a lasting legacy of your
  pet. They are made to withstand weather and time
  and therefore, are a permanent marker of your
  pet.

• No matter how you grieve or memorialize, be sure
  to keep your pet forever in your mind and heart.
  They were a significant part of your life, they
  brought love and joy and companionship to you and
  others every single day for years remember that
  and cherish it.

14

• Dont act like they never were that doesnt do
  their memory any justice. If you want to keep
  their spirit alive, live with it every day.
