Mourning the death of a pet.

Mourning the death of a pet is a very natural and necessary part of the grieving process.

The special relationships that we have with our pets brings on a special kind of mourning when the end comes.

The following few lines are taken from a article on mourning a pets death and describe feeling that we have all had:

When her silver tabby cat, Lucas, died in her arms two years ago, Lynn Cummings was grief-stricken.

"It was tragic to lose him," she says. "We had a special bond. He was like a son to me."

Besides being a beloved pet, the friendly cat was the popular mascot of Cat Country, Cummings' gift shop on Main Street, Hyannis. Her customers were saddened by his death, too. "He had his own following," she says with a smile.

Cummings had Lucas cremated with his catnip blanket and favorite toys. The day after his death, she held a wake in the store's back room. She placed his remains in a cardboard box, lit candles, and surrounded the box with photos of Lucas. Friends and customers came bearing flowers, plants and condolence cards and shared stories about the cat - an "uplifting" outpouring of sympathy that comforted Cummings.

Mourning a pet's death is a normal reaction, experts say that it has become a more publicly accepted form of grief in recent years.

While in mourning for the death of a pet it is always good to mark that passing and remember the life of your pet in as much detail as you can.
