Why? Because writing feels good. It is probably the most basic and simple
method of creative grieving. Experts all agree that expressing your grief is
essential to a healthy mourning process, whether due to loss of an animal or
human companion. Think of your own "loss of pet" page as
an emotional outlet for you, one you won't find elsewhere. We will not be
judgmental or make you feel "crazy" over your deep sorrow. All you will find
here is a silent army of readers, other animal lovers, who have gone through
what you have. We feel your pain and wish you well. So tell us all about your lost pet, what you will
miss about him. Tell us what happened
to him, and how you feel about your tragedy. Express your words of pet loss
sorrow; it will be therapeutic in the long run. Come back later and read the comments left by visitors to your page, and see how
you felt "back then".
