Attending A Pet Grief Support Group At The Funeral Home
Have you ever had a pet that felt like a member of your family? You know that death is a part of life, but you don’t want to imagine what your life will be like without that particular pet. Unfortunately, eventually you have to. Pets don’t generally live nearly as long as their human companions so we have to say goodbye to them a lot more often than we’d like. If you want to honor your pet, perhaps you cremate them, have a little service, and scatter their ashes. But what happens next? It’s not easy to move on and just get over it, even if some of those around you aren’t sensitive to your grief and think you should. Consider attending a pet grief support group at local funeral homes in Lapel, IN.
When you lose a loved one, there are plenty of groups and counselors as well as resources to turn to, which is great. But when you lose a pet, you might feel at a loss if you need extra help and you don’t know where to find it. Loose Funeral Homes & Crematory has a pet grief support group on the 4th Thursday of every month to give you a safe place to open up to your grief with others who are going through similar issues.
One of the biggest things you can get from a pet grief support group is the knowledge that your feelings are normal and you’re not alone. There are other people who felt very deep emotions for their pets and are grieving their loss, just as you are. You can share your story or just listen to others and understand that pets are a joyous part of life that can take time and effort to get past once they die.
Visiting the pet support group will help you feel a part of something unique. You may not be able to express your emotions to just anyone in your life. Not everyone has a pet they feel close to or that is like a member of the family. But those at the pet grief group know just what you mean when you say your pet was like a best friend, a sibling, or even a child to you. It’s okay to say those things in this safe environment.
