The relationship with a pet can start when a new puppy, kitty, or feathered friend is welcomed home, or it can begin by rescuing a loyal companion. The bond between an animal and its family is undeniable. These amazing creatures show us complete acceptance, unconditional love and fill our hearts and homes with precious moments. For these simple reasons it can be very difficult when a cherished pet makes its final transition from the earth. Whether you know the depth of pet companionship firsthand, or you simply care about someone that has a pet, recognizing when that animal has died will mean the world to someone who is grieving.
Remember to use the pet's name if you know it. And don't be afraid to call and talk to them about their loss. Pet loss breaks hearts, because pets are family.
