What is World Pet Memorial Day?

Every year on the second Tuesday in June, World Pet Memorial Day provides a moment for pet owners to recall the furry companions that have passed away. It's also a day to do something for those that have recently lost their beloved pet.

People love their pets, and it's no surprise. And rightly so. These enchanting creatures provide companionship, emotional assistance, and a lot of joy. Pets are also beneficial to one's wellbeing. For example, those with pets have reduced blood pressure and cholesterol levels. In addition,, pets provide more opportunities for exercise.

Dogs and cats are the most popular pets in the world, not surprisingly. According to the most recent estimates, over 470 million dogs are kept as pets. There are also over 370 million pet cats in the United States. Although some pet owners prefer either dogs or cats, some prefer both. These animals make their way into their owner's heart, regardless of what kind of pet a person has. When they die, it's very difficult because humans are so attached to their animals that it's so difficult. It can often take several months to get over a pet's death.

Pet owners may experience guilt, denial, and depression during the time of remembrance. Pet owners will eventually feel acceptance and resolution, but not quite yet. It's crucial for pet owners to not let others tell them how to feel during this process. It is also helpful to reach out to those that have lost their pets and seek professional assistance if necessary. After crossing the Rainbow Bridge, some pet owners hold a memorial service.
