Honor Your Pets Memory

These are some ideas that might help people cope with the loss off their pet.

Pray for your pet’s passing

Write your feelings in a journal

Have a memorial by yourself or with your family and friends

Bury your pet in a special place

Have a stone pet memorial engraved for your home garden

Cremate your pet and find a special place to spread the ashes or keep the ashes in an urn

Create a scrapbook, photo album or collage of your pet

Frame a photo of your pet and hang it on the wall

Save something that belonged to your pet, like a collar, hair clipping

Plant a tree for your pet

Volunteer your time to an animal charity

Volunteer to help bring feral cats to a shelter for shots or donate winter shelter (check your local shelter or vet for info. — see feral links below)

A new pet could never replace the death of your pet, but in time it may be a solution to help bring you some happiness

Make a donation to a charity in your pet’s honor

You may want to seek the help of a counselor or a pet loss support group, which are often sponsored by local Humane Societies and/or veterinarians.
