Links to external sources of support.
Losing a pet is often as difficult and traumatising as losing a member of the family, sometimes more so. Sadly, this is often not recognised by wider family members or work colleagues.
If you feel the need for additional support, please explore the links below that. You are, of course, also able to call the surgery, if you have questions about the circumstances of your own pet’s loss and parting.
For 30 years, the Blue Cross has been helping pet owners cope with the loss of a pet, either through death, enforced separation or theft. With a free and confidential helpline, webchat, email and Facebook group, you can find support when and where you need it.
