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.
My boyfriend broke up with me a little over a month ago after being together for 6 years. We have two cats and a dog, and I took them all because I'm afraid if he has any he won't let me see them again. I told him he could see them whenever he wants, but he said he didn't want to have to see me. It was a pretty nasty break, but I had to reach out yesterday to see if he would take our dog. I love her so much, but I am deployed right now several hours away and I just can't take care of her. He said he would let me see her, but I'm afraid if I ever ask he will say no. At this point I am being selfish to her by keeping her with me. I move almost every week and she just hangs out in a hotel room until I get off because I can't find a dog sitter for every new place. I know him and his parents love her and will give her everything. I just feel like a failure.

I invited Bill to have dinner with me last Sunday. He wasn't willing to drive 7 hours to mid Michigan and teased me with his beautiful ribs!!! So, of course I ate alone and had cedar salmonĀ
