I’m a therapist, and one of my clients is putting her dog to sleep this week. Her first time. She cried through the whole session. And this was the first time I ever cried in session myself in 5 years. And I’ve heard some shit… but this got to me.
Thank you for being there for them. I had to put down my soul pet, my cat of 20 years, in October. First time losing my pet as opposed to the family’s. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever been through. Thankfully I was seeing a counselor who helped me through the worst of it and I’m so grateful to her. She cried too, and it touched me that she could empathize so deeply with what I was feeling.
When I talked about losing my kitty on here, someone said the sweetest thing that will always stay with me, “May her sunspot never move and may she rest in play.”
Being a cat person, I don’t know how relevant the sunspot part would be to a dog, but I feel like “rest in play” is such a lovely way to think about any pet’s passing.
I started sobbing in front of my manager at work when I was telling him I needed to go home to be with my dog for his last day because I just gotten the call from the vet that we needed to put him down. Absolute no fucking control, I was a mess. Literally got four words in and just exploded
I keep wondering how I’m going to tell my boss when this happens because I’m not going to be able to come into work for the day and I hope he’s not going to belittle me for feeling this way about my pet. Because he’s not just an animal but my family.
