Share Your Pet Loss Stories

Through my own experiences of pet loss I've learnt that every one of our pets is unique and when they leave us they leave behind so many wonderful memories.

When they suffer a loss of a pet, many people find that they want to write their experiences down. Not only to capture their memories but also as a way of making their way through pet grief and moving on to pet grief recovery.



Your Pet Loss Stories - Red and Boo


Red and Boo



"Not the least hard thing to bear when they go from us, these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so many years of our own lives." - John Galsworthy



Writing can be a really effective way of expressing your feelings and remembering what made your pet so special to you.
