- Pet loss Syndrome refers to the sense of loss that people feel when their loved pet has passed away. If it happens to you, no matter how prepared you are, you will be very sad. Let's find out how to move through grief after loss.
Coping With Losing A Pet
#1. Grieving The Loss Of A Pet
1. Feel Sad
Right after the death, you may feel sorry and sad because of things you couldn't do for her instead of thinking of the good old days. Grief is normal. So take enough time to feel sad. Deep sadness will go away over time. But if it’s hard to let go for a long time, see a pet-loss counselor.
2. Stay Away From Unsupportive People
Some people don't get the sadness of losing a pet. While you feel empty, they don't get what you feel and say things that can hurt your feelings. In this case, you may feel more depressed. Stay away from those for a while.
3. Keep Memories
You can keep memories in a photo album, a memory box, or a tree. As you focus on collecting things, you can not only keep the memories, but also cope with sadness and bring back happy memories.
#2. Helping Other Pets Deal With Their Grief
1. Do Daily Things Just As Before
If you have another pet at home, she can feel the same loss as you. Animals bond with each other. So when one has gone to the rainbow bridge, the remaining one might get sick or even die shortly after in the worst case. To help her, just do daily things as before.
2. Don’t Reward Your Pet For Depression
Rewarding your pet for depression isn't helpful and can make the situation worse. When she looks sad and depressed, you can try to turn her attention to things like toys.
If you are having a hard time with this these days, we want you to remember the good old days with your pet. Your loved one may watch over you at the rainbow bridge now. If you are sad, she is sad there. We hope you're getting a little less sad. - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
My dog was my best friend, he unfortunately died a few days ago on Easter due to unnatural causes. I’ve been feeling so guilty because I’ve been away at school for months and haven’t been able to see him regularly…I just hope he knows how much I loved him because he never failed to show how much he loved me 💔
I'm sorry for your loss I hope you heal I feel every bit of your pain
My kitty Adore was a very good cat
She even saved my life like legit she woke me up before I could had a Stoke in my sleep which led me to be alive today
She only lived with me for a few months
I know I was a bad parent to her
I kept neglecting her I wish I rather stayed in home than going to private classes
5 days before she died it was my bestie's bday I was leaving with the cake but my kitty ran upto me & meowed so loudly as if she was telling me not to go
I wish I stayed with her I wish I did better I wish I stopped her eating that lizard which led her to her death
I couldn't be with her at her last moments
I know my baby waited for me she passed away right at the time when I come home but alas I couldn't come home that day
I couldn't say my goodbyes
I couldn't hug her for the last time
I miss her so much just so much that I still can hear her loud meow for not letting me go
My family hated cats on beds I wish they loved her as much as I do so today probably she would've been alive they laugh at me when I cry about her loss
The night before she died she was on the bed my mother screamed at me scolded me so she got up & went down despite being so weak by the poison
She was a very good kitty I hope I can meet her in heaven one day
R.I.P. Adore
My rabbit also died on Easter this year😭
@@sweetheartxd9457 Ok, listen to me right now, I feel the same guilt about my guinea pig and his passing, but I was lucky enough to be there the night he passed. I had no idea, I was just going in to check on him a bit early, and found him acting abnormally, I got lucky, and I'm so glad me and my whole family was there for him in his last moments. But It's s not like you knew this would happen, and it's not like you had much of a choice. I doubt you left to go to class because you wanted to be away from her. If she understood why you left, sure she would have missed you still, but she would realize that you were doing what you needed to. The fact that you feel guilty shows that you care. I think she knew that you cared for her, that she was loved even when she couldn't be with you. Remember that. She wasn't with you for long....but I'm sure when you were there, you made her feel loved, and that's all any animal could ask for!
im so sorry for your loss, i think the guilty feeling after losing a pet is the worst feeling ever. But think like this, animals are way better than us in forgiving and understanding, that is their magical talent, and im sure your baby knows that you love him and he loves you too. unconditionally. Thats why our bonds are so strong and deep.I hope we will meet our animals when it is time. I send you my hugs.
Same my dog died yesterday and I'm also away for college, but I always go home every weekends or any chance that I can. I'm not ready to go home yet because my heat broke whenever I imagine going home and not seeing him. He always waits for me in the bus station together with my brother whenever I go home, and now it would only be my bro😢
Had to put my baby to sleep yesterday....I had 15 years of love and happiness but it still did not feel like it was enough. I just wish to hug my little angel one more time, kiss him on the nose and tell him i love him.The house just feels empty and cold without him. I still look around and hope to see him come to me.
A car ran over my cat while I was at school today.
I was already having a bad day and it just broke me down when I got the news.
I can’t live with the fact that I won’t be able to call her name when I get home ever again.
Now I have to go to school and just get over it for the sake of passing my classes.
Sometimes I wonder why God takes our loved ones away so suddenly. I love you so much Sandy. I really hope your sleeping and playing happily up in heaven.
❤️🩹
I'm so sorry for your loss. I just lost my cat and it's very very hard. The memories will live on with you though. And your pet will still be there for you even though they have passed. They are very special that way. God bless.
I have a cat named Beau. I can’t imagine losing him. Just thinking about the day I loose him I break down completely. I can’t imagine how that would’ve felt to you.
I lost my dog today @ bus accident within 1 sec I lost my love.. Unbearable pain😭😭😭😭
every day for 2 years my cat would greet me after i got home from work, and yesterday i got home and she wasn’t there. i was a bit worried but i figured she was out wandering around, after 2 hours of being home my sister told me she came with bad news and instantly my stomach dropped and all i could think about was my cute soft paws, and i was filled with dread, she takes me to my cat and she had passed away, even though i was looking at my cat, it didn’t feel real, the cat i had cuddled with in cold nights and had fun teasing, was now gone and i could never ever talk to her again and she will never be there to greet me after work again, i will never hear her voice ask for food. or her meow of when she wants to be let in. i’m so sad i don’t know what to do, i was in a daze all day today at work thinking about her, and for the first time in 2 years (since the time she was a little kitten) she wasn’t there waiting for me when i got home from work, i felt alone, and depressed. yesterday i buried her, it was the hardest thing i have ever done, i loved her like a daughter, and for most of the time i was crying and saying my goodbyes, i kept touching her fur since i would never be able to again. i didn’t want to bury her, but i wanted to give her the respect she deserves, it was so hard, i still can’t believe she’s gone, i feel like she might just be waiting on the other side of the door waiting for me to open it for her to come in and start asking for food. i can’t believe it and i don’t want to believe it, she was my daughter.
@@gerardosantiago8694 I’m so sorry for the loss of your precious kitty.
one of my dogs passed away today, and i have cried more then i have ever cried before. ive never dealt with a loss/death that was close to me. Ill forever have her in my heart and i hope where ever she is that she is in peace.
My dog Tammys dates are similar to yours…sorry for your loss ❤️

RIP Dixie dudes

I just picked up my baby's ashes today. It hurts so much.
@@leopardchickenYOUR BABY DIED?
It’s been 8 days and I still feel so negative, I cannot put it into words, ten years just like that.
My cat died 2 days ago. I am so so so sad. He would eat in my room and sleep. I miss him and everything in my room reminds me of him. But I know he is not suffering anymore and I'm happy for him but I miss him so much. My cat was 17 btw
Stay strong and stay positive
Had my dog put down yesterday, do you have anything that helped? I’m just struggling
How are you doing now? I’m at 36 hours since I lost my best friend and I’m completely in pieces 😭
Hi Sarah, I'm 2 months in and, actually not doing good. 😢 It's actually getting harder to cope with her absence. 😢
Our pup of nearly 17 years just passed away yesterday. He walked over to us and appeared to nap in the company of us, but it turned out he just stopped breathing. There was no struggle, no cries, no whimpers, its as if he was content or something. Regardless, we'll really miss him, he was like a little furry brother, was really hoping he would make it to 20.
Rest in Peace, Buster Dec 29, 2006 - Nov 2, 2023
My son, Growler, died three days ago when I had to put him down. He was my closest friend and I miss him so much. There are no words to describe the pain and only one comes close: hell. It is like someone cut my heart out of my chest with a spoon then tore my soul in a million pieces and stomped on it.
My cat,Mama cat died after getting a lump on her chest which made her breathing harder and harder each day.She was brown and her fur was smooth and silky.The vets had to euthanize her so she wouldn't be painful.During the shot she was screaming and then afterwards,she was looking at me very lovingly and passed away peacefully. I love you mama cat,If you hear me.R.I.P. 😭
My dog Buck was only 9 (young for dachshunds) and he was struggling with Cushings then all of a sudden his heart and lungs started failing and we didn’t want to prolong the suffering
I know he’s not hurting for the first time in years at least
I feel terrible. My dog of a 15 years passed away this morning while my family was sleeping. I grew up with him since I was 6 and I just feel a huge hole in my heart. As an only child, I grew up with a brother because of him. I love you Mason. 6/15/23 💔
Mine was almost 16 but she was dying
My dog named mason is getting put down in a few months he is also 15 and he has been with my my whole life ♥
My dog died yesterday. November 2013-February 26th 2024 She was everything to me
2 months after Mason passed, my other dog Clay reunited with him. I cried today. Its a forever hurt :(
It’s been like 3 years since my dog died and I still can’t get over his death
Strange how my dog gave me a hug and cried to me. This morning she was found dead infront of our house. I miss you Cookie. I love you Cookie. I hope you make alot of new friends in heaven.
My cat died 2 days ago. I miss him a lot. I feel your pain.
Bless you. 😢
My dog passed away yesterday. She’d been ill for a few weeks already and I kind of saw it coming, but I don’t think I was prepared for the actual pain of her death. I just hope that wherever she is, she knows how much I love her 🥺🖤
No one is prepared
Nobody ever is...especially when it happens suddenly.
Just happened to me man lost my boy after 15 years & I been crying non stop. Shit is a different type of pain.
@@SSGKvsh sorry to hear that bro. It’s tough and you’ll miss him a lot, but in a weird way with time you’ll feel better. I like thinking that she always comes back to me in spirit whenever I call her and it makes me feel really good
@@danielmgiant appreciate the kind words my friend I've been pretty hard on myself about it because you feel so hopeless seeing them fade. But as long as he knows we all loved him I can't be mad. I cried my eyes out & myself to sleep yesterday. But today was a lil better. Just glad he doesn't have to suffer 🙏🏽
My cat got ran over by car yesterday, seeing her little body lying there broke my heart, I wish I could turn back time and save her. Her and I were really close, she followed me everywhere, now I feel empty and alone. I still have my other cat but she wasn’t as attached to me as that cat, I love the two of them so much, I never expected something like this could happen to me. She was such a beautiful, happy and smart cat, never hurt anyone, I hope she’s happy wherever she is and I hope I can meet her again one day
Thank you for sharing this. My dog was hit by a car and died on 2.29.24. The pain is awful. He is all I can think about. 😭
The same exact thing happened to mine. My entire family hasn’t been the same since
❤ I'm so very sorry for your loss of your fur baby.
You will meet your best friend again over the Rainbow Bridge
🐾🌈🐾
Same 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 this is so depressing
omg rip :( my little 6 month puppy got ran over today and man it doesn't feel real
My dachshund passed away suddenly from congested heart failure a week ago. Her sister passed away a few months prior. Once her sister passed, she barely would eat and no longer wanted to do things she used to. I truly believe she died of a broken heart because 6 months ago the vet said her heart was strong with no issues. Rest in Peace my sweet Winnie. Mommy loves you 💗
My guinea pig just died. I feel so empty without her.
She has been with me since I was a child. I'll miss you so much love ❤
My Guinea just passed away today so randomly and my other Guinea is sad and im sad death sucks
My 15 year old shihtzu was put to sleep today (01/06/2023) and tonight (first night), i feel like my soul has been ripped apart. I just keep getting glimpses of his suffering and I feel guilty that he wasn't put down earlier. I just feel like the world suddenly lost its colour. I don't know how to keep going on. I read that maybe making memorials for him will help, and i think it is. I feel so sad tonight. I miss you so much my Sammy Wammy. I love you so much. I will meet you again. You're no longer in pain
This video made me think of my dog and cats who passed away over the years.. I absolutely miss them but I'm always thankful for the love and the happiness they gave to me.
My little sweet dog of 3 years old died this morning. She smiled at me calmly before passing away. I feel so empty inside. I hope she knew how much I loved her. Tomorrow I will go bury her in the woods with flowers because I am too poor to have her diagnose for cause of death.
Maybe soon I will adopt another dog after, I feel like it can be my 2nd chance…and also in order to fill my empty heart once again.
I lost my sweet boy yesterday. His name was Happy. And he lived up to his name. Not only was he always happy he made US so incredibly happy. To his last second he made sure we were ok...he gave us kisses even while being in pain...im not ok...but i know god and my grandparents and other pets i lost throughout the years are with him. I loved u Happy. Thank u for everything my sweet little boy❤❤❤
My hedgehog died today. I’ve been crying for hours though I’ve had him for only 2 months. this really helped me out
I am so sorry. Our hamster died on Tuesday last week, still utterly heart brokem, he was 19 months, it do not matter if you had something for just one month or ten years ,or 20 years feelings are still equal if u love him /her with all your heart
My guinea pig died a few minutes ago. I cannot even write my story. I'm so sad
My dog just died about 3 days ago, and I've been looking into ways to cope with the loss. And this definitely helped. Thank you so much.
I just had to say goodbye to my best friend of 15 years ago this week and I’ve never felt anything this awful before. I miss her so much and can’t believe she is gone.
Ayy 3 days for me too
Same. My dog died 3 days ago. Right after valentine day

Thinking 6ř
We lost one of our cats (the one on my profile photo) 3 days ago and I truly regret not spending much time with her when she was alive...her passing indeed taught me a lesson and now I try my best to spend time as much as possible with our remaining cats.
I miss you so much, Rani - run free and healthy again over the rainbow bridge.
My Princy left me on 12th September. She was like ur kitty. White furr mixed Persian ,round eyes,very bubble. She was only 5months. When she got viral infection, she was sad but cooperating wit the treatment. She wanted to live but couldn't make it. Died infront of me on hospital bed. I don't have any other cat but i lost a precious gem. Don't know how to overcome this. It's too hard for me .
My cat died on September 5th. I’ll definitely try to spend more time with future cats. Her kidneys suddenly failed and she didn’t show any signs she was dying or even slowing down except for her last two days. She was about 14+ but acted young. I didn’t expect it to be so sudden I wish I would have held her more.
I know for a fact pets go to heaven though if they bring you happiness. When I was putting my cat down I was annoyed because I couldn’t get the song amazing grace out of my head. Guess what the opening song that day in church was? Amazing grace. Also the readings were about the lost sheep (I haven’t believed in god for a while) Heaven would be boring without animals. There is no way there aren’t animals. I prayed for a sign she was in heaven and got one.
Sorry I don’t mean to sound too pushy I just wanted to share
@@sparklyinosuke8504 It's heartbreaking know
My cat died today walking outside i saw him got hited by a car i was in shock and pain i miss him
True...I feel the same way 😢
I lost my cat recently, i miss her so much, i learned it in history class and I’m scared to go in this classroom and learn another sad thing. She was 19 and spent 17 years outside, i miss her so much
Rest in peace my angel ❤
I lost my cat on sunday unexpectedly. She ran away and she passed away alone :(. She had a heart murmur for the six years I took care of her. I never got the chance to say goodbye to her, right now I am dealing with a way to cope through loss, watching this video has really helped. Thank you
Even if you had the chance to say goodbye it will still hurt believe me , my cat of 13 years died three weeks a go between my arms and i'm still crying every day
My Cat also unexpectedly died at the age of 13 on Tuesday (18/10/2022). The cause of that was his Osteoporose, which we didn't notice until he jumped of the bed and landed bad. The Osteoporose then blocked the nerves in his spinal cord, which made him unable to move his lower body, hold in his pee, etc. Because of that he also has gotten bad blood circulation, which can lead to heart failure. (This happend on Monday(17/10/2022) at 11PM) We went with him to the Emergency Vet, where they wanted to put him down. My Mother disagreed as she wanted to get a 2nd Opinion at our Vet, which we wanted to go to on Tuesday Morning. (at around 10AM)
He sadly passed away on Tuesday at around 3-5AM on our couch because his Heart stopped beating while he was asleep, which the Vet said can happen.
We have noticed his death when we woke up and wanted to check how Lucky is doing. (Lucky is the Name of my Cat)
We buried him at his favourite sleeping spot in our garden.
May he rest in peace
@@HeinzAnimation our dog died on October 11th :( I know how u feel man
❤wqp😮
I hope things are better for you ❤
lost my cat yesterday, I’m truly broken, my mom and dad too. The house just feels so empty, everyday efter school I come home and cuddle with my little cat. Now there’s nobody to cuddle with.
every day for 2 years my cat would greet me after i got home from work, and yesterday i got home and she wasn’t there. i was a bit worried but i figured she was out wandering around, after 2 hours of being home my sister told me she came with bad news and instantly my stomach dropped and all i could think about was my cute soft paws, and i was filled with dread, she takes me to my cat and she had passed away, even though i was looking at my cat, it didn’t feel real, the cat i had cuddled with in cold nights and had fun teasing, was now gone and i could never ever talk to her again and she will never be there to greet me after work again, i will never hear her voice ask for food. or her meow of when she wants to be let in. i’m so sad i don’t know what to do, i was in a daze all day today at work thinking about her, and for the first time in 2 years (since the time she was a little kitten) she wasn’t there waiting for me when i got home from work, i felt alone, and depressed. yesterday i buried her, it was the hardest thing i have ever done, i loved her like a daughter, and for most of the time i was crying and saying my goodbyes, i kept touching her fur since i would never be able to again. i didn’t want to bury her, but i wanted to give her the respect she deserves, it was so hard, i still can’t believe she’s gone, i feel like she might just be waiting on the other side of the door waiting for me to open it for her to come in and start asking for food. i can’t believe it and i don’t want to believe it, she was my daughter.
An hour ago I just found my little cat dead! 💔
My heart is broken into pieces! I am so sorry little friend! 💔 I will miss you forever 💔
So sorry for your loss :( I bet she was happy and his happy in cat heaven as well :)
To me, pets are not just pets, they're family members. My 2 doggies passed away, a father one passed away on second day of Lunar New Year (few years ago) and a child one passed away before Lunar New Year in this year. A father was sick and for some reasons a child one...😞. I still miss them, cry everytime they show up in my mind, hope if heaven is real, they 2 are happy there, and to Lucky and Shorty, a mother one - Cream is ok, she misses you really much, poor girl. Miss you so much, Lucky and Shorty❤️😔
Our family cat passed away yesterday of old age. We feel terrible, like we weren't able do enough. He was waiting for us under the bed. My dad called me to take him out. I managed to do so, but after meowing twice, he stopped breathing. I had known him since I was born. The house feels really empty without him. 10 whole years of love and joy ended here. But I know that he is in heaven. His friendly attitude and spirit still lives in the house. I hope he will visit us soon. I love you Kitty. Let God bless you.
My dog, who i knew most of my life passed away today, April 24th, 2023. I don't know what to do, it hurts so much but I know she wouldn't want me to be sad, But I can't help but feel sad. She was my best friend, one of the reasons i am still here today, i will miss her so much. Rest in peace, Billie. Fly High in Doggy Heaven ❤
My bunny of 6 years passed away this april 24th 😢
thank you.❤️ just this morning my stepdad forced my mom to give away my cat, who’ve i have grown up with since first grade. i miss her so much and i know i’ll never see her again and my heart is shattered.
I just lost my ginger buddy. He was really big and really fluffy! He lived for a long time. We pretty much lived to the same age (I’m a year or two older than him) so I really did just lose someone I’ve been with my entire life. He survived so much including many fights and getting hit by a car. On the last day that I saw him, he stayed with me and I just sat and talked to him. I gave him cuddles and he meowed back in response to me.
I vividly remember the first time I met him. He was a kitten, but not too young. I remember seeing this ginger little guy sat looking up at me. Toddler me bent down to him and we just locked eyes. Since then, I’ve loved him so much.
His death was quite unexpected, so I was so shocked. I’m currently bawling my eyes out because it’s just so sad that I’ll never be able to give him a hug again.
i barely had my dog for about 2-3 months but she just passed away a few hours ago and in a way that was not peaceful. thank you so much for spending your time to make this video, i really appreciate it. :)
Same. Today my dog died and I had him for 2-3 months
I lost my dog yesterday.. He got hit by a car after he ran away from the house. I feel so empty, sad, and full of resentment for his death.. Can't help to cry every time I think about him.. My cat has been calling him since yesterday and sitting on his grave.. It's so heart-breaking
my cat died yesterday his name was pounce and he was only one he got hit by a car and i miss him more than anything i feel so drained and depressed i dont know what to do. i miss him so much
edit: it’s been a month. i am still sad and cry here and there, but it’s gotten a lot better. it takes about a week or a couple days to start to feel a bit better about your pet dying, but you will eventually feel better! may God bless everyone in this comment section and help them deal with loss! i love you all and know that all animals go to heaven, no matter what. you are appreciated and know that it will be okay!!
omg sorru for ur loss:( my 6 month puppy got ran over today too and ugh it doesn't feel real
My dog died today. Thank you so much for the vid. It really helped.
my dog got ran over by a car, the driver didn't care to check and my dad rushed her to the vet. She's still alive but I don't know how long she'll last, i literally trembled and cried when I heard the news. I knew here since I was 3 and I can't let that 10 years of memories with her go to waste, my whole family loved that dog and we can't let her die by being killed, we wanna finish her life story and give her the love she needs. Sorry for venting these out btw
it's ok I understand, my pet bunny I had her for 5 years and yesterday my uncle broke her legs because he dropped a box on her, she died last night on 22-2. I love her so much and I feel so sad
@@taha2824 I'm sorry for your loss 🥺
my 3 year old husky had to be put down yesterday after getting hit by a car the day before. her brain injuries were too severe to save her. she bolted out the door because she wanted to play outside, her life was cut so short. she was so good for a husky, so gentle and she never barked. i just feel so sad, especially since we still have our goldendoodle, her best friend, he now has nobody to play with. im only finding comfort in the fact that my last memory with her was playing at the dog park the morning before the accident. she was so happy and loved
My 9 month old puppy passed away on Sunday (November 19). I was absolutely heartbroken and devastated. I had let her out to go potty and wasn’t watching. She was missing for 4 hours and we found her body in the forest. We had to bury her and I was in tears because she had only been a baby. I might go to the doctor and get checked out, I still have the images replay in my head and constantly cry from time to time, it was my fault. ❤
Nobody would wish that to happen. I understand. I lost my boy, too. I know you feel guilty for not doing something but it is what it is no matter what. Their time is borrowed and we have to give it back. Just be happy that s/he let you be a part of their lives. Eventhough we know deep down we will miss them everyday.
I have lost a dog 3 years ago but i was able to say goodbye. Last week, my 2 month old puppy suddenly started to choke and died on my arms… I am devastated and it seems that the pain is never going away
I just had to say goodbye to my 12 year cat that had cancer. I can't stop crying, it's so heartbreaking. I understand that it's for better but it's difficult to cope with my emotions
my dog just died today, got run over by a public vehicle that didn’t stop. it’s so painful, a part of me was dying and i can’t even function properly.
it’s so so hard, i miss you so much mochi, we miss you dearly.
we’ll never forget you.
rest in peace.
When my cat Snare passed away I didn't feel ok from December 25th to early January. When I wasn't crying I was either on my computer, asleep due to crying, or going out to just hug my family. I had Snare for 12 years, had him since he was only 2 years old he was 14 years old and losing him the day before Christmas hurt like heck!
I still remember the day I had to make one of the hardest calls I had to ever make. Snare was losing weight, his ribs were showing and I knew just how fast an old cat can go down hill cause my sister's cat Zephyr. I didn't want that to happen to Snare, I made him a promise that I would do everything in my power to make sure that he had a better life then he would have had with his other owner, his other owner wasn't nice to him. It was no one else's call but mine.
My other family members, like Aunts, Uncles, and Cousin knew I loved him. One of my cousins as soon as she got the text from my older sister telling everyone what happened actually went out to Walmart to find something for me. She ended up getting me a grey and white cat plushie, it looked almost like Snare. I ended up naming him Snare Plushie.
It's been 2 years since his passing and I still don't remember what all I did besides crying, sleeping, crying into family, and playing on my computer.
One thing I do 100% remember is a dream that I had of him in January. I just kept asking God to make sure that he was ok and he answered it.
I was in my mom's computer room playing on the computer, I didn't have one of my own at the time, when I felt something furry touch my feet. I looked down and there he was. Snare looking up at me looking as young and healthy as I remembered. His light green eyes shining as brightly as ever. I just smiled, scratched his left cheek and watched as he closed his eyes, leaned into my hand, a smile appearing on his face as he began to purr.
My cat that I knew my whole life recently passed, I have had a hard time coping, but I am happy someone out there realizes how to help me.
My cat died a few days ago, and I've tried really hard to not think about it. But I just can't, I miss my Olive a lot. (Olive was my cat's name) Thank you for this video. I can start to heal and not dwell on the pain.
I lost my dog on 13/05/2024. She was 3 years old. Both my dogs(male and female) had loss of appetite. Diagnosed with Tick fever. The female puppy couldn’t make it. Somehow I blame myself for thinking about the things I could/ should have done to save her.
Thank you for this video.
She was too young to die.
My first pet loss.
Forever in our hearts Thatcher (Barbie) ❤
i just lost my bestfriend of 6-7 years yesterday and i miss him so much i can’t stop thinking of him and i’ve been crying so much
One of my bunnies passed yesterday and I don’t think words alone can describe how much sadness, heartache , and guilt I feel. I miss my baby boy so much😢
I had a dog who used to sleep with me in my bed. My room feels empty. I love pets but nothing but heartache pets are family 🐾❤️
My chihuahua, Pipsqueak, died in my arms today after 13 1/2 wonderful years. She was showing signs of age for awhile but seemed to have a lot of life left in her until yesterday. She went downhill quickly and had a stroke mid-afternoon. I’m devastated but so thankful she wasn’t in pain for long. This hurts so much.
Just lost a cat that's been with us for 17 years. Now for the first time in close to 22 years, we're without a pet and the house feels so empty now. I'm struggling pretty hard right now because I was too weak to be there for the euthanasia. I couldn't even bear the weight of bringing him home to be buried... I just feel so damn empty now that he's gone and I couldn't even be strong enough to be there with him.
just figured out my 19 year old cat is getting put down tomorrow. she isn’t doing good and i am really upset and stressed. she has been around my whole life and helped raise me. this video changed my approach to this situation so thanks
My dog was put to sleep yesterday. Everything reminds me of her and I miss her so much. I love you Gem ❤️

My precious cat passed away at October 6, 2023 at age 18. She was having difficulty getting up on her feet and trouble breathing. The moment I saw her behavior, I took her to the vet immediately. The doctor informed us she had respiratory distress, fluid in her lungs, dehydration. Then, my fear came true, and it was a very hard decision for me to choose. It was very painful to see my cat go. When she ut to sleep, I haven't cried this hard since high school. For the past 17 years, she was like a daughter to me and we took care of her very much in great health! The last thing I wanna do for my cat is to cut off her thick fur ball for free, which is very pricey these days, so I took my time cutting off her fur before taking her to the vet.

My dog of 15 years is getting put down later today. She is older than I am and I’ve been with her ever since I was born. Even though she is still here for a few more hours, the pain I feel already is unimaginable. I received the news not that long ago and it hit me like a bullet. I will never ever be the same, and there will always be a hole in our families hearts.
My cat has to be put down tomorrow. I've had her my whole life and i'm seriously struggling to deal with it. This video gives me some hope, though.
I hope you’re doing okay ❤ sending love to you
My beautiful angel is going to sleep today. He was always the one who used to follow me around everywhere, my little pal. My whole family is devastated by the news. He wasn’t even meant to be part of the family, we were only going to look after him for a few days until he could be rehomed but he won all our hearts with his kind nature.
I’ve lost pets in the past and it doesn’t get any easier but it does make me feel better to know I did the utmost best I could to make them feel loved and safe while under my care. I have hope I’ll see them again someday, so it’s not really goodbye. Nothing lives forever and I truly appreciate life thanks to my pets and all the responsibility that came with it has made me a much better person. So don’t grieve for what has to happen to us all one day but be happy they were part of your life for a time. If our pets could talk, I’m sure they’d say thank you from the bottom of their hearts for every ounce of time and love you shared together. ❤
i know he died 2 years ago, but i haven't been able to vent and say most about it.
i was young and stupid when i got him as a child. my other pet had died, but i got another (later i realize i shouldn't've) and he was the only one in that small jail of a cage at the pet store. standing there, looking at me sadly, i felt bad. i adopted him.
i loved him. he was such a highlight of my life and he was such a good thing. i always greeted him as i came from school. he was always happy to see me.
he never had a cagemate. i was so stupid to believe my own company was enough for him. i was so fucking selfish. why. why did i ever let him suffer like that? i just let him deal with loneliness his entire life and probably depression, and yet i thought it was fine.
im so mad at myself still. he lived for about 5 years with some trouble here and there but he was such a great guinea pig.
one day i came to see what he was doing. i thought he was sleeping, and i wanted to hold him. i took his igloo and greeted him... and... and he was dead. limp. cold.
that was my life check. in the pandemic. already feeling bad. just... the recollection of all my terrible actions... i never gave him enough of anything. i never gave him enough attention. i never let him get out enough. what did i not do?
panda, if you can still read this. i'm so sorry for the shit i've done. i really took you for granted, like a doll that i can just pick up without any other interaction or anything else and play with you, and just leave you.
i just let you suffer... suffer.
ALL I HAVE FELT SINCE THAT 2 YEARS AGO IS DEPRESSION... HOW DID YOU ALWAYS FIND THE POWER TO SMILE AND BE HAPPY WHEN I CAN'T?? YOUR ENTIRE LIFE??
The fact that he was looking at you sadly in the pet shop, but then always happy when you had him means you did something right. Sounds like he got the power to smile from you and your love.
Had to put down my 21 y.o. cat after months of fighting cancer. He was such a brave boy. Miss him so much 💔 I wish we had more time together.
My beloved kitty died yesterday. So much memories and emotions for each day of his 15 months filled through rvery corner of the home.. Thanks for this video.
my cat just died a few hours ago and we buried her under a tree and i really miss her so this really helps i was actually away from home for a funeral and we didn’t see her come home we found her dead behind our washroom and i really miss her as i didn’t have her for long.I’ve been trying not to feel bad but i’ve been so shaken up and this is my first cat ever so it’s really hard to know that she died. She died because stray dogs that come in our yard attacked and killed her.They but her belly open and killed her.The worst part is it was just my birthday a few days ago😢
My german shepherd has just died last night. I miss her a lot and don't know how long i will feel empty. I hope you are happy right now Roxie wherever you might be.
I lost 3 of my pets in just less than a month... i really feel so down from one loss after another... I am affected mentally, socially and even at work...
I feel u,same,im also loosing 3 cats in a month.is it because of the virus?

@@intanhadi931 i been like that for almost a month but I just tried to fight the sadness and just focus on taking care of the other pets I have.
😞
I lost my Brownie 8 days ago and until now I am still crying. My husband doesn't like it .He said we have 8 dogs at home why are you crying for Brownie. Brownie has kept me company in the office. He slept with me in the office and he was there during my struggles with those stressful documents that I was able to submit several months ago...I really miss my Brownie...still crying..can't hold back the tears...
I lost my cat 6 months ago and can't move on. I keep watching this video, it does help. 🫂🫂
My dog die from cancer and died at the vet at 3:42 and this video made me feel like I’m not alone so I thank the creators of this video and send them lots of love
Our 10 year old black lab Juliet was put down today. I don’t feel like doing anything or seeing anyone. I plan on buying a wool felt miniature from Etsy of her for Christmas… Thank you, dear Juliet, for all your unconditional love
Omg pls do it’s so worth it!! We got a miniature wool figurine done off of Etsy too. It took about a year and a half, but it’s so beautiful. It poses too! So you can see their personality in the model too ❤
@@kristin_niicole the one I was looking at is a little over $400 and I was gonna get it for my parents for Christmas to put by her urn. We have like a “little shrine” for her on the bookshelf 😊. It’s still not easy, and tears are still shed
@@freshbrewedasmr3378 same here, we actually got the figurine done when our dog Zeus was still alive. Now that he’s gone as of Sunday, it was very fitting. We have it also in a display box so that it doesn’t get dust on it throughout the years. Maybe that’s something you can do for Juliet’s shrine too :) also thinking about shadow boxing my dog’s collar and cremation certificate etc
My cat, Mini, died today due to a snake bite. I didn't know what to do since there was no pet hospital open at that time. I hoped to take her in the morning, but when I woke up, my mother was crying beside Mini. My mother loved her as much as her own child she named her as mini because she is small in size . We miss her so much. 😞
My cat Apple just passed away last night and today I started to look for ways to cope with grief. What happened was so sudden, I'm still processing everything and I'll let myself grieve for the next few days. This definitely helped. Thank you so much.
It’s been 9 months since your comment. How r u doing now
my pet dog died from a sickness. My dad was so happy when we bought him. He always wanted a dog... but my dog got sick and we couldnt help him. We did everything, but right before the blood tranfusion my dog died. I had him only for a month, but i loved him very much. He was a golden retriver, a puppy. He was in so much pain when he died. I hope he is in a better place now
RIP my friend. You will always be in my heart.
Hello. I lost my 4-month old golden retriever pup to Distemper. I had to put him to sleep. I wished I could have done more to save him. I had him only for a month too but it was so painful, like a massive hole has been left on my heart.
I may not know you but I stand with you as you grieve and process your puppy’s death. I am sure one day we will be reunited with them at the rainbow bridge.
My cat died last night, i am so grateful for the 10 years we had together. It's going to be hard to move on but i know i will eventually
Lost my pet rabbit today. At least he died as he slept. He wasn't mauled by a fox. I'm glad he lived his life with people who loved him.
so sorry
My beloved dog just died yesterday. I can't express how much painful how it feels.😭 I feel depressed because he's been my companion for more than 8 years. He's very loving, and he's always there for you when you're sad by coming to you and wagging his tail to you, his presence alone lights up the room, and he guards our home like it's his own. 😞 I watched videos on coping because it's really unbearable, I always cry whenever I remember him or his thoughts came to mind. I felt guilty because I was not able to bring him to the veterinary, thinking it's just a simple cough and diarrhea. Just woke up he's slumped on the floor lifeless with eyes still open.😭 videos like this makes me understand and lessen the pain a bit BUT I don't know I still cry every moment because I can no longer feel his presence. The home is very quiet without him. Please pray for me, I don't want to eat and can't sleep, I really miss and love him.😭 Thank You.🧡
Just lost my dog of 9yrs reading through your comments made me to understand my grief thank you for sharing.I know that I will also be ok one day.Rest in Peace JR you were a loving dog.Will forever carry you in my heart😢😢
There was this cat that lived at my grandmas house not too long ago, I created a special bond with her and ended up calling her Athena. I prepared myself telling myself everyday that I could and would lose her any day now. A few months back she went missing and I’ve no lost hope in ever finding her. I still sit outside my grandmas house hoping that one day she’ll somehow come back. This video and the comments brought me a tiny bit of comfort knowing I’m not the only one going through this.
Just today a bird I was taking care of has passed away. I know that he is happier in heaven but it is still hard for me to let go. I just found him yesterday and I also feel guilty that I didn’t give him much attention in his short life. Right after we buried him, we got the sign from heaven of the white butterfly. I hope he is happy now
Thanks so much! My kitten who was only 8 months old died early this morning. He had this horrible fluid in his stomach and we had to put him down. I have couldn’t stop crying for hours so this helped SO much!!!
i’m so sorry for your loss, my kitten of 10 months just died this morning too. I hope you get better
Thank you so much 😊
Just had both my cat and dog put down at the same time and i just feel so lonely and empty now even though i still have one dog. And i was even prepared but i didn't how how hard it could be loosing a pet.
The stray cat that I fed, pet and walk everyday is died today because any stone heart people open their house for him. Even my parents don't let me to take him in. So he died. He was my best friend. We've met at a huge earthquake. He found me and I found him. We hug each other and wait until it's totally safe. Until today, oh lord i cant.
I lost my Bernese Bear at nearly age of 8 in August. It was very sudden and within a few days he was gone. Fast forward to yesterday Dec 9, My Golden Retriever Beemer suddenly lost all function of his legs and was whimpering in pain in the morning and by afternoon he was gone. The vet diagnosed him with meningitis at age 8. Thank you for making videos like these.
My shiny died yesterday ,she was a street dog not our pet but she used to more than often stay at our home ,she used to make me feel loved and make my presence matters. I can't help but remember every now and then the moment she died, she was crying, then shaking on the floor and then she was no more in just a few seconds and on that day just a few minutes ago she was all happy and playing and fiddling here and there and the next moment she left the world.... She was just a three year old . People around me including my family are telling me that she was not ours to begin with, she did not love us, she was just a stray (my mom even scolded me saying that what kind of worthless daughter she gavd birth to ,who is crying over a dog who did not loved her) but for me she was my everything, it was me who used to wake countless time at night to see if she is ok, it was me who used to go with her at 2 am wherever she wanted to go ,it was me who used to feel the pain if anyone even as much as sweared to her, she was like a daughter to me.... I don't have pets but other street dogs who used to come at home... But after she is gone so abruptly i don't feel anything, not eaten anything in these 2 days ,does not want to do anything... I just want to go to her, please someone take me to her ,how will she live alone ,i want to know how is my shiny... Please someone take me to her... I want to hold her... Just once..
Ps. I knew for 2 ½ years but that doesn't matter, she is my heartbeat, i don't feel like breathing now that's she is not with me.
my cat named butters died and i cant stop crying everytime i think of her i just cry idk what to do but i know i cant forgot about her hope you have a great day.
thanks this helped alot, I am now after 3 hours on stage 5 with grief process: acceptance. Ill just remember the good times we had and smile and keep my pets closely. Once again thank you for calming me down.
My cat, who was 20 years old, died today, just around an hour ago. She was with me for literally my entire life, and was the mamma cat of the house. She’d always yell at us if we were even a few minutes late to get in bed, she was the best.
RIP Jaiden, 1/12/24. You were the best cat anyone could ask for and I’m gonna miss you so much.
My cat, shelly, died 2 months ago. She just turned 3. It is very hard. She was just so young. I always think of her, which makes me cry. I don't know if ill ever get over her.
My dog Orson passed due to a tumor in his upper jaw today, and they put him down right in front of my family. It was devastating seeing them cry and hold onto him. I don’t like to cry in front of others, so I’ve been crying for the last hour or so. This really helped me realize that you’re happier when you think of the good times instead of bad. I love you pup pup, always will.
To my cat Garfield, i want to say: Thank you for being our cat for the last 13 years. you will always be a part of our family. May you rest in peace💔💔💔
My dog is very old and has dementia, constant accidents, no longer wants attention or to go on walks. My mom told me it’s time to put him down since he has such poor quality of life but I just can’t do it. I burst out crying every time I think about it and the thought of it makes me sick. I know it’s the right thing to do but I can’t imagine life without him i’m 17 and have had him since I was 5 so I can’t picture life without him. I know that it has to be soon though probably in the next couple weeks because he can’t keep living like this.
Just this morning my dog passed away from a heart attack at only 2 years old. In the morning we brought him to his normal vet due to him being uncomfortable and he suddenly passed there. We will miss him dearly and he will forever be in our hearts ❤
Rest in Peace Leo 2021 to 2024
My dog had to be put to sleep in April and everytime I think about him I end up crying sometimes for several hours and occasionally have dreams where he was still alive but I know that he despite only living four years that those four years where filled with treats and love.
It hasnt even been 24 hours and we buried her. my dog passed from pyometra and because of all the commenters under this video, i know im not going through this alone. im only in highschool and she was my first best friend. i wish well for all you people under this video, and we can get through this together.
my heart horse, munchkin, a haflinger cross, was put down on march 13th and a week prior, i saw him everyday, i felt as if i was the most attached to him, i thought after that day, oh i’ll be fine, but now i’m just crying every once in a while when i think of him
just lost my fish, and my cat died recently this really helps
My pet chicken died today, this helped alot thank you, especially how people don't care much for chickens and just told me "its only a chicken" but she was smarter than my dog, could do tricks and was potty trained, i miss her
My pet chick died just after two weeks of living
This commented really comforted me. Today, I lost my beloved pet rooster, Georgi. He was the sweetest little guy I know.
I Iost my childhood dog 4 weeks ago on Christmas Eve, even though dogs are now widely accepted to be considered family, I still got the "it's just a dog" treatment. The people didn't say that directly but we were told by a handful of people to just bury her in the yard and get it over with, rather than spending money to get her cremated which is what we wanted (and did do) so we can bring her with us if/when we move houses.
I really sympathize with you this past summer I lost my 2 year old chicken Henrietta that I had since she hatched and it just really hurt because that day I knew something was wrong and that she wasn’t going to make it so I just held her for hours until she passed away.
Im sorry to hear that. I had a pet rooster named Rufus and he was quite the character when he passed it hurt pretty bad
Thank you for this video, I just lost my dog today due to his age, he can't eat, walk or sit down comfortable like he used to when he was young. My parents and I have to make a difficult choice to...either seek medication or put him down. But it's hard to see my dog in and suffering so much so we have to let him in peace and it's hard to say goodbye. I always remember how much good time with my dog walking, eating, roll on the grass, clean his paw and kinds of stuff for almost 12 years from puppy to grown dog and later his end of journey...I want to say it's a fun life with him and I'll try my best to keep on living without sadness and keep active for his sake and mine.
My baby bro finally rest after 20 years with me. He passed when he was wrapped in my arms. I am still grieving and I dont know how long it would take.
Thank you for this video. I truly appreciate it. I will watch it again to cope with my grieving process.
I want to tell you! When my dog Princess passed away, I went through all of this madness that this video describes and that was no fun! And, the worst part, the memories of your pet never leave you. So, the sadness, while yes does fade, but it never truly goes away. While I have another dog now, the memory of my other dog was no fun at all! You'll actually feel like crying and you'll feel like that you want to bury the dog's bed, toys and one time, I actually wanted to burn the dog bed. The sadness was that bad. I know this sounds like something from a movie but it is real. I had to get counseling. Luckily, my adoptive sister is a therapist but it still...that was not fun at all! This is what I recommend. When getting another dog, get one of an entirely different breed from the other one. That way, you know that you can truly move on. If you get another dog the same breed, the sadness will continue to hurt. So, be very careful about getting a new dog the same breed as the one that passed.
My cat passed yesterday. She was old, but we thought she had a little more time with us. She had been sick within the past months, but just last month we took her to the vet and she was all fine. My parents have had her since a year before I was born, and I don’t know a life without her. Her and I never had the best relationship and I had a better one with my other cat (still alive and I love him to bits). But over the last couple of months she started snuggling up to me. The last time I ever saw her was on Wednesday, while my friend was in my house we passed her in the hallway. I wish I had stopped and given her a pet or something. But I didn’t know. My parents had to put her down yesterday. They thought it would be best for me not to see her, she was just not in the best state. I agree. So yeah. I found out and have been non stop crying. I miss her so much.
I feel so sad and helpless for anyone that’s watching this video because something has gone wrong, I lost my cat today, she was a very gentle Himalayan cat. She was succumbed to death by panleukopania virus,she suffered so much and when she was on her deathbed she called for me with her tiny little paws with that oxygen mask on her face, and as soon as I held her hand she died within 10 seconds, it’s as if she knew it was her last and she wanted to have me by her side when she passed. I am so heartbroken I don’t think I can ever love any pet like the way I loved her
I had a whole generation of cats raised at our home and i have sent most of them for adoption and i kept my one and only beloved cat 🐱 he wasn’t like any other cat he used to love and and doesn’t mind belly rubs he used to trust me and doesn’t only think about food like the other cats do. Yet today he passed away i am fully depressed and going through one of toughest times in my life never been through this before never felt sad for any cat before.. he is gone he had kidney failure and passed away. Its really tough to look around your house and remember them in each and every corner it’s really tough and suddenly you feel like life is becoming grey and uncolorful .. hope we get through this
My best buddy passed on the 9th from kidney failure i rescued him during a really rough time in my life but it turned out to be the greatest because i had him he was like no other cat i have had before he would of been 4 years old next december i cant stand to even sleep in my room where he passed i dont want to move on from him it all still feels like a nightmare
It’s been almost a year since my dog Jax died and I still think about him so much, he was my dog since I was 2 years old. I’m fine most days but then I start thinking about him and it makes me sad for the rest of the day. I don’t know what I can do! Is it just like this from now on? He was one of the only deaths I’ve been through.
I just lost my Dog Roger recently, he was our family dog of 10 years now. I know my lil pups will miss him just as we do. Cherish the moments you have with them and everyone you love and care about, you never know if it will be your last. ❤️
My Gillu (rabbit) died yesterday... she was such a cute and charming baby... We loved her so much... She was totally fine but suddenly left eating anything and left us... Our family is heartbroken...please pray for her... I wish she could come back to us😣 and never leave us.... Our life will never be the same again... We love you Gillu and miss you so so so much.... Please be happy wherever you are...
