When your pet was your whole world, your safe place, your family, your home, their loss can feel like losing part of yourself. Today, I’m sharing why this grief reaches so deep, and how to begin seeing what your animal left alive within you. I’ll also share something that recently dawned on me about my sanctuary animals: the animals we love don’t only give to us, they awaken something in us. Their love changes the way we love, and that is their legacy living forward. Once connected, always connected. I’d love to hear from you in the comments: what did your animal give you that you now share in your life?
