Book Synopsis
Pet loss has grown as an area of concern, with greater awareness of this kind of grief. Pet ownership itself is at an all-time high; half of all UK households own a pet, and 63 percent of all U.S. households, equating to more than 69 million US households.

Small wonder that losing a companion animal can be devastating.

For older people, it can mean the complete disruption of their daily lives - at least 40 per cent rely on a pet for daily exercise.

Subjects in this sympathetic and comprehensive book include: stages of grieving; when mourning mask deeper problems; dealing with those who don
