Coping Advice

Losing a pet can be devastating and is a difficult experience for anyone to go through. It's important to remember that it’s normal to feel grief and sadness. It can be especially difficult if the pet was with you for many years, and the bond was strong. It can take time to come to terms with the loss. Here are some ways to cope with the loss of a pet:

​

1. Acknowledge your feelings: It’s important to recognize that losing a pet can be a difficult experience. Allow yourself to feel the emotions associated with your loss, whether it be sadness, anger, guilt, or regret.

 

2. Seek support from family, friends, and/or professionals: It's also important to reach out to people who can provide you with a listening ear and empathy. This can come from family and friends, or you can seek out a professional therapist or grief counsellor.

 

3. Consider memorializing your pet: There are several ways to memorialize your pet, whether it’s by creating an online memorial, planting a tree, or having a memorial pet service.

 

4. Participate in pet-related activities: Being around other animals can help bring comfort and healing during the grieving process. Consider participating in activities such as volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering an animal, or joining a pet-related support group.

 

5. Take care of yourself: Allow yourself time to grieve and don’t be hard on yourself when you’re feeling overwhelmed. Make sure to get plenty of rest, exercise, and eat healthy.
