Just like us, our pets form deep bonds with their furry companions. When a loved one passes, it's not uncommon for other pets in the household to experience grief. They may show changes in behavior, appetite, or mood as they adjust to the loss. Understanding and supporting them during this time can help them heal. 💔🐾
