one of the biggest misconceptions about grief is that healing means “moving on.”

but many people do not want to move on from the pets they loved so deeply.

they want to stay connected. and honestly? continuing bonds after loss is a very real and healthy part of grief.

talking to them.
looking for signs of them.
keeping their photo close.
wearing their tag.
dreaming about them.
feeling their presence in quiet moments.
including them in your life in new ways.

love does not suddenly disappear because someone is no longer physically here.
for many people, healing is not about letting go of the bond. it is about learning how to carry it differently.

and sometimes, those we love most never fully leave us at all.

Guilt after euthanasia can feel incredibly heavy because the decision often comes from a place of deep love, responsibility, fear, and heartbreak all at once.

Your mind may replay the timing, the details, the final moments, or all the “what ifs” because it is trying to make sense of something painful and permanent.

But guilt is not proof that you failed them.

Many people choose euthanasia not because they stopped loving their pet, but because they loved them enough to protect them from suffering, fear, or pain.

A loving decision can still feel traumatic.
Both things can be true at once.

If you’re carrying guilt after saying goodbye, I hope you can be gentle with yourself today. 🤍

And if you’re feeling this right now, there is space for you in The Pet Loss Club. A place to feel understood, supported, and less alone in your grief. Link in bio.

here’s a look at what’s coming up inside The Pet Loss Club over the next few weeks. 🤍

from grief support circles, to guest conversations, workshops, candlelight memorials, and gentle community spaces, my hope is to continue creating ongoing support for grieving pet parents in ways that feel meaningful, accessible, and human.

because healing after pet loss does not look the same for everyone.

some people need connection.
some need education.
some need a space to talk.
some need a place to quietly feel understood.

The Pet Loss Club is meant to hold space for all of that. 🕯️

stay tuned for more information, reminders, and details about each upcoming event over the next few weeks. 🤍

and if you are someone who works in pet loss, grief, wellness, creativity, movement, or healing and would be interested in collaborating or hosting an event with the community, please feel free to message me. I’d love to connect.

if you’d like to join the community, you can find The Pet Loss Club through the link in my bio. 🤍

🌿 Monday Memorial 🌿

Today we remember Tuesday- a constant companion, a healer, and a deeply loved part of her family. 🕊️

“You left us too soon but we are filled with so many wonderful, funny, and happy memories of our life together. Thank you for loving and healing me and your daddy. We love you forever and ever big girl. Our hearts are broken in a million pieces but we can take ease in knowing you are no longer suffering. Thank you for loving us unconditionally and helping us heal.”

Favorite memory

“You were our constant companion. From walks, car rides, and trips we were never without you.”
November 28, 2012 – March 11, 2026

— Remembered by 🤍

Some pets become part of every chapter, every routine, every memory — and their absence is felt everywhere. Tuesday’s love and companionship will always be carried with her family.

If you’d like your pet to be honored in a future Monday Memorial, you can submit through The Pet Loss Club — and those memorials will continue to be shared here on Instagram.

this is one of the most painful questions so many grieving pet parents ask themselves after loss.

not because they made the wrong decision…
but because they had to make an impossible one.

we are suddenly placed in a position where we have to “play god.” where we have to choose between holding on and letting go. between more time and more suffering.

that is deeply traumatic for so many people.
and after trauma, our brains often try to make sense of the pain by rewriting the ending as our fault.

“maybe i waited too long.”
“maybe i did it too soon.”
“maybe i missed something.”
“maybe i failed them.”

because somehow it feels easier to blame ourselves than to accept how powerless and heartbreaking the situation truly was.

but making a loving decision through unbearable pain does not mean you betrayed them.

it means you loved them deeply enough to carry the heartbreak yourself. 🤍

grieving a pet can feel incredibly isolating, especially when the world around you does not fully understand the depth of the loss.

our bi-weekly support circles are a gentle space to connect with others who do understand.

a place to share, listen, reflect, or simply exist alongside people who get it. 🤍

there is no pressure to speak.
no expectation to have the “right” words.
just support, understanding, and community.

I think there is something really beautiful about creating small spaces of light and love in our homes when grief feels heavy.

This urn from Sky Urns has felt like such a meaningful way to honour their memory while also creating beauty around them.

Whether it’s fresh flowers, dried flowers, their collar, photos, or quiet little touches that remind you of them, it becomes a space that continues to hold love. 🌿

I also really love that they come in different colors and sizes, so you can create something that feels fitting for your pet, your space, and the way you want to remember them.

A memorial space does not have to look one specific way. It can simply be something that helps you feel connected to them and keeps their presence woven into your home in a gentle way. 🤍

saw a reel by that said:
“forever empathetic because i know what it feels like to want to take your own life after losing the dog that kept you alive.”

and i connected with it deeply.

my dogs have gotten me through some very hard points in my life, and honestly, i can say there were moments where they were the reason i stayed.

they are my constant.
my comfort.
my family.

losing a dog (or any animal we love) that means this much is an incredibly deep experience.

in this work, people often tell me:
“i don’t want to continue without them.”
“i don’t know how to do life without my dog.”
“they were my everything.”

and if you are feeling this deeply after losing your pet, you are not alone in that experience.

the bond between humans and animals can be life changing and the grief that follows can feel life changing too. 🤍

pet loss can impact mental health in very real ways.

if your grief is feeling overwhelming, or you are having thoughts of su***de, please reach out to someone you trust, a mental health professional, or your doctor.

you do not have to carry this alone.
