Pets Are Family
They are also our friend, support system, and confidant wrapped in one. They are by our side, always present and eager to support us through good times and especially the bad times.

The loss of a beloved pet is one of the most painful experiences we can face. Not only have we lost our companion and friend, but oftentimes we also lose the only constant positive support and comfort we have in our lives.
Coronavirus is making people suffer alone. Grief is normally very isolating, but this pandemic is preventing many people from accessing the normal forms of support that exist: Like friends, family, and our communities.
Those of us who are grieving during a pandemic have discovered new found meaning for loneliness. It leads many people down a darker path of social and physical isolation.
Especially now, we need that comfort and support from those who understand this loss. Those who have gone through this pain. We don’t have to do this alone!
At PetCloud, we host virtual support groups that meet throughout the week to provide critical grief support when YOU need it. Grief strikes during the day without warning. Knowing you have people who you can contact provides comfort, understanding, validation, and perhaps a measure of peace on your grief journey.

Your Grief is Normal and Natural
You are not going crazy. This grief is real, and intense. The bond we share with our pets is a different level of intimacy than we will share with most other humans. They are in our lives, from the best of times and through the worst of times your pet was by your side.
This is a hard goodbye. For many, you might be feeling guilt, anger, loneliness, and on top of everything else, oftentimes, our friends and family just don’t understand this level of pain. Although they may mean well, they often can say things that are very hurtful, like “Are you still sad about that”, or “When are you going to get another pet”.
You don’t have to go through life stuck in grief, or pretending that you are “okay”, or being “strong” for the family. You deserve to grieve. You should be allowed to grieve.
With a PetCloud Membership, we will allow you the space, tools, and community to do just that. Grieve and honor your loss in a way that is specific to you and the relationship that you have lost.
