Pet Loss Support and Finding Comfort
Grieving the Loss of a Pet
It’s okay to grieve. Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest things we face as pet owners. At Wheaton Way Veterinary Hospital, we understand the bond you shared and the grief that comes with loss. We’re here to offer guidance and connect you with resources to help you through this time.
Pets are not just animals — they are our companions, confidants, and family. It’s natural to feel a wide range of emotions after saying goodbye. Whether you’re experiencing sadness, anger, or even guilt, know you’re not alone. At Wheaton Way, we are here to help.
Resources to Help You Cope
Support for the Whole Family
Children often experience pet loss differently than adults, and addressing their feelings is important, too. Many child-friendly resources can help kids understand and cope with the loss of a pet.
Sometimes, having information at your fingertips can make a big difference. Online resources like articles and forums can help you feel less alone and offer actionable steps for managing your grief.
We’re Here For You
Navigating the loss of a pet is never easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. We are here to provide compassion, support, and resources during this difficult time because we believe in supporting not just our pets but the people who love them.
