Your Pet's Sacred Passage

10/07/2024

Dogs gather to help burry their friend that just died. They are using with their snouts instead of their paws, expressing respect and love. Animals are more intelligent than what some humans think. Dogs analyze, problem solve, they have feelings, yes emotions, and they have moods.

"Nothing you love is lost. Not really. Things, people—they always go away, sooner or later. You can’t hold them, any more than you can hold moonlight. But if they’ve touched you, if they’re inside you, then they’re still yours. The only things you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart."

Do you have a pacemaker?
Did you know this:
👇👇👇
You can put it in "Your Will" to have your pacemaker donated to a dog in need after you pass. Pacemakers cannot be donated to another human, but they can be donated to dogs with cardiac issues who would depend on it to stay alive.

You can have the pacemaker brought to a vet of your choice. So many of those get thrown away and dogs die because people don't know they can do this. It even saves the dog's owner the cost of the actual pacemaker which sometimes means the difference in being able to afford lifesaving treatment or not.

"If I die while I have a pet, let my animal see my dead body. Let them see my dead body please. They understand death and seeing me dead will allow them to mourn, but if I just never show up one day they’ll think I abandoned them. I know what it feels like to be abandoned and I never want anyone to feel that way, especially my dog."

"The nature of life includes the eventual miracle of death; a Rite of Passage that deserves dignity and loving care.”

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (2018) in the United States, 57% of households owned a pet with 66% owning more than one companion animal. Of individuals surveyed, approximately 80% consider their pets to be family members, 17% consider them to be a companion, and only 3% consider them property.

Seeing the statistics above, we realize that most of us see and treat our pets as a family member. Caring for a pet has magical powers for human health and wellbeing and the grief we feel when our pets die is natural and normal. It is beneficial to lean into your pain, instead of ignoring it. Consider contemplating on this powerful quote 💚

Reflections on the Bond Between Pets and Humans
Today, let's take a moment to appreciate the incredible bond we share with our furry and feathered companion animals. They bring joy, love, laughter and companionship into our lives like no other. Cherish every wag, purr, chirp and snuggle, for these are the moments that truly make life precious and beautiful. 🪶🐾

«La fonction vitale que remplissent en ce monde les animaux de compagnie n’est pas encore reconnue à sa juste valeur. Ils protègent la santé mentale de millions de gens. Quand vous caressez un chien, quand vous écoutez le ronronnement d’un chat, il arrive que vos pensées se figent en vol et qu’apparaisse en vous une sérénité sans bornes, un portail vers l’Etre.»
Eckhart Tolle
