In this post, we’ve highlighted 5 main worries that pet parents share with us. We’d like to help explain away these pet euthanasia myths. We’ll cover topics such as: will my pet be scared during at-home euthanasia, whether passing at home is more stressful than in the clinic, and whether pet euthanasia is only for dogs. We’ll also touch on the cost of euthanizing your pet at home and what happens afterward.

This article covers helping children cope with pet loss, how to explain pet loss to a child, whether children should be involved in saying goodbye to your pet, helping children create happy memories before their pet’s passing, and some suggestions for pet loss memorials you can make, build, plant, and more.

In this article, we’ll discuss anticipatory grief and pets, what it is, how to cope with these stressful feelings, how to prepare for expected future events, how to talk about this grief with your family, and making the most of the time you and your pets still have together. Grief hits people at different times and in different ways. We want to give you some tools to help you work through this difficult time.
