How long does pet grief typically last and is my reaction normal?

There’s no “normal” timeline for pet grief, and your reaction is valid regardless of how intense or how long it lasts. Some people feel better within weeks, while others carry their grief for months or even years. You might experience shock, anger, guilt, or feel completely empty—all of these responses are completely normal. The bond you shared with your pet was real and meaningful, so the grief that follows is equally real and meaningful. What matters most is allowing yourself to grieve in your own way and for as long as you need. Don’t let anyone tell you it’s “just a pet” or that you should “get over it” by a certain time.
Guilt is one of the most common and painful parts of pet loss. You might be replaying decisions, wondering “what if,” or feeling responsible for your pet’s suffering or death. Most pet owners experience some form of guilt—guilt about the timing of euthanasia, about not recognizing symptoms sooner, or even about feeling relief when a sick pet finally passes. These feelings are part of the normal grieving process. Working through guilt often involves talking about these feelings with someone who understands pet loss. We can help you process these emotions and recognize that you made the best decisions you could with the information and resources you had at the time.
Children understand death differently depending on their age, so honesty at an age-appropriate level works best. Avoid phrases like “put to sleep” or “went away,” which can be confusing or frightening. Let them ask questions, even if you don’t have all the answers. It’s okay for them to see you sad—it shows them that grieving is normal and healthy. Young children might not understand that death is permanent, while older children might feel guilt similar to adults. Including children in memorial activities like drawing pictures, writing letters to their pet, or sharing favorite memories can help them process their loss. Every child grieves differently, so watch for changes in behavior and provide extra comfort and reassurance during this time.
Getting another pet immediately is usually not recommended while you’re in the acute phase of grief. You need time to process your loss and heal before you can fully open your heart to a new companion. A new pet won’t replace the one you lost—each relationship is unique. If you get a pet too soon, you might find yourself comparing the new pet to your previous one, which isn’t fair to either of you. Take time to grieve, remember your pet, and heal. When you do feel ready for another companion, you’ll know it. That readiness usually comes with excitement about new possibilities rather than just trying to fill an empty space.
Memorial options that feel meaningful to you personally tend to be most helpful for healing. Some families choose cremation with a special urn, while others prefer scattering ashes in a favorite location. Creating a photo album, planting a tree, or making a donation to a local animal shelter in your pet’s name can provide comfort and a sense of continuing connection. Some people find peace in writing letters to their pet or keeping a special collar or toy. The key is choosing something that honors your specific relationship and brings you comfort when you think about your pet. There’s no right or wrong way to memorialize your companion—what matters is that it feels right to you and your family.
Consider professional support if your grief is interfering with daily activities, relationships, or work for an extended period, or if you’re having thoughts of self-harm. Also seek help if you’re experiencing complicated emotions like severe guilt or anger that you can’t work through alone. Professional pet grief counseling can be helpful even for “normal” grief. Having someone trained in pet loss who understands the human-animal bond can provide validation and coping strategies that friends and family might not be able to offer. If you’re questioning whether you need help, that’s often a sign that talking to someone could be beneficial. There’s no shame in seeking support—it shows strength and commitment to your own healing process.
