Pet . Therapy. Notes...
rehoming a beloved pet:
we need to change the narrative.
You have every right to grieve a pet that is living, but no longer in your life.
​​​
I don’t know your particular circumstances, but I imagine this is not a decision you made lightly, or without some level of shame, and maybe even heartbreak. Life happens, and sometimes we find ourselves in situations we could have never imagined. I’m glad you reached out for help, and I’m so sorry for what you are going through.
