Lianna Champ explains why pet deaths affect us so deeply and how to cope with pet bereavement
Coronation Street viewers were subject to some tough scenes on Wednesday's episode of the show, when Evelyn Plummer's pet dog Cerberus died after experiencing kidney failure.
The scenes could have been particularly triggering for those viewers who have previously experienced the grief of losing a pet. "If we have lost a pet, either recently or a long time ago, the scenes with Cerberus can bring everything to the forefront 2. Remember the happy times It's okay to feel sad, but also try to remind yourself of all the love and joy that they brought into your life. In lower moments, try to focus on the fact that you have given your pet a loving home and they lived their best life with you.
4. Remember the other pets If you have other pets at the time of the loss, remember that they will be feeling the absence of their companion too. Try to keep them in a routine as this will provide some semblance of normalcy. Give them some extra affection, which will have the added benefit of relieving some of your pain. Sometimes grief can feel like a big ball of love with nowhere to go.
