“Who Else Wants To Move Forward Through The Grief of Pet Loss... Rather Than Sitting And Crying Helplessly?” All pet lovers have to face the death of their pets, sooner or later. Other people don’t understand what it’s like. They may think that “it’s just a dog,” “only a cat,” or “just a rabbit.” But you and I know that the pain of loss that we feel is very deep and very real. You see, it’s not only the loss through the death of your animal...but also the losses of companionship, comfort, security and love...that cause your pain. Robin Jean Brown faced that journey when her beloved companion animal died in April 2005 after a long, painful ordeal with brain cancer. An Easy To Follow Guide That Will Show You Exactly What To Do To Cope People who experience intense grief over a pet who died (or will die) are weird. Truth: You are normal and healthy when you feel this way. People who have strong feelings about the loss are capable of intimate attachments and deep emotional bonding. This is something to be proud of, not something to put down. The loss of pet is insignificant when compared to the loss of human life.
