Pet type description

Every animal counts as a pet here

Dogs and cats dominate anything written about pet loss, which leaves people who have lost a rabbit, a parrot, a horse, a rat or a tortoise reading advice that quietly assumes they are grieving something smaller. They are not. The length of a life does not set the size of the loss, and a two-year rat that sat on somebody's shoulder every evening leaves a real hole.

These pages exist so that every kind of animal has somewhere it belongs. Browsing by type is also the quickest way to find memorials written by people whose loss actually resembles yours.

If the animal you lost has no type listed, it still has a memorial. Tell us what they were and we will add it.

Questions about pet types

Can I create a memorial for an animal that is not a dog or a cat?
Yes. Every kind of companion animal belongs here, including small pets, birds, horses, reptiles and fish.
What if the type I need is missing?
Get in touch and we will add it. In the meantime you can create the memorial and set the type afterwards.
Can I change the type later?
Yes, from the memorial itself, at any time.
