Pet Bereavement Support Group

The loss of a pet or animal to which one has become emotionally bonded can be an intense loss, comparable with the death of a loved one. Whilst there is strong evidence that animals can feel such loss for other animals, this community focuses on human feelings, when an animal is lost, dies or otherwise is departed.

Need advice...

We recently lost one of our cats. He was only two, he had a blod clot in his heart..and after only two days we adopted a kitten (2 months old). Our other cat who is two years old was use to the other cat but isn't really found of this kitten. It's actually the kitten...whenever he can, he charges at the older cat...and she isn't very playful, never has been. We try to keep them seperated for now until the kitten gets a little older and bigger. Any advice on a good way to get these two use to each other?. We just don't want the older cat to harm the kitten. I guess once the kitten is bigger, he might just have to get smacked by the older cat and learn she doesnt want to play.lol..Please give any suggestions.

I had to separate my cat from one I had adopted. He was not a kitten, but he did not tolerate coming to a new home very well. After a couple of weeks he got used to the new place and the other cat, so I let them be in the same room together. Eventually they became friends. Maybe you could just continue to separate them for now until they get a little more used to each other.

A vet recommended Rescue Remedy for my Keegan when we lost Giz, he was stressed and this helped him to relax, it's all natural, not expensive , one drop on each ear can even put it in the drinking water , if you look it up online its also available at walmart

    I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field. I was trying to get out of teaching and I feel so devastated. I felt this crushing feeling when I signed the paperwork and when I was in the meetings. I know that sounds so dramatic but it is how I felt. It...
