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.

So sad

BCMuttMom

I'm sad. Just so sad. Still. My husband is pretty much back to normal but I still want to do nothing. Just thinking about him makes me cry. I cry at the drop of a hat.  Every single day still. I feel like he thinks I should be ok or at least better than I am. I have no interest in anything but I'm working on faking it. Who's closer to normal. Me or him?  It will be 4 weeks on Monday. I know I'm not normal but I really don't think he is either.

I am so sorry that you are having a hard time. It can take quite awhile to get over the loss of a pet. I think after a year of "firsts" normally you feel better. After my cat Lucy died I often sensed her around me and had a dream where she jumped on the bed and nudged me with her nose. I picked her up and held her and then she starting walking around me on the bed again nudging me with her nose. I picked her up and hugged her when I suddenly woke up with a start. It was very real and I think she wanted me to know that she was OK. We will see each other again at the Rainbow Bridge. (((Big hugs)))

Sorry you lost fur baby. Grief is different for each individual. Neither right nor wrong just struck at different levels.
