Some of you may have seen my post about Barbaro - the vet hospital who had been fighting for his life over the past 8 months have just put up this list of web sites designed to help people grieving for lost pets. I thought some of you might find them interesting.

The Association of Pet Loss and Bereavement - http://www.aplb.org
http://www.petloss.com
http://www.griefhealing.com (may take some time to load)
http://www.rainbowbridge.com

Sara, good resources. May I add some information as well for people living in Melbourne?

There is a Companion Animal Support Group which is run by the Australian Centre for Grief and Beareavement, in partnership with the RSPCA. I have been co-faciliating this group over the past few months.
Details here http://www.grief.org...imal%20Loss.pdf

More information about the Australian Centre for Grief and Beareavement here http://www.grief.org.au/ including the bearvement counselling service.

I might move and pin this in the In Memory of forum - if people want to add sites they have found helpful it would be appreciated and might help others.

Hi everyone,
As you all know I am still grieving for my baby Ellie, but I would like to thank this site and its members as they have really made me feel loved. Their support is amazing. Thank you for this wonderful website.
I would also like people to go to
www.petloss.com
and I just cannot thank enough www.petcrem.com.au for the way they looked after my baby Ellie. They were so respectful and listened to my needs and wishes.
and I would also like to thank www.badabingjewellery.com.au for their phone support and caring card and gift I received when I purchased my cremation locket.
Thank you everyone again for your wonderful support during this really hard time.
Maddie
