Your friends and family are telling you to “just get another [dog, cat, hamster]” like you're buying a new toaster. But it’s not that easy. Any pet parent knows how gutted you feel. I know what it's like to lose a pet you loved. I work with adults who have experienced the loss of their pet and with ongoing challenges with anxiety and depression.
