What Should I do?

What Should I do?

It's not uncommon for an elderly companion to peacefully pass away in their sleep. While discovering this might be a surprising and unsettling moment for you, find solace in the knowledge that your devoted friend spent their final moments in a place where they felt loved, secure, and comfortable. Additionally, take comfort in the awareness that you are not alone in navigating this situation.



A simple call to Forever Loved Pets ensures that you don't have to face this alone. We will coordinate the process of collecting your cherished animal companion from your home and transporting them to our facilities. Throughout this journey, your companion will be treated with the utmost dignity and respect, from the moment they leave your side until they are returned to you.

Should your regular veterinarian's office be unavailable, it's advisable to reach out to an emergency veterinary clinic. Contacting them can assist in evaluating your cherished pet's condition and guide you in determining the necessary medical care.

If euthanasia becomes necessary, a simple phone call providing details of your appointment's time and location enables our compassionate staff to arrange for the prompt pickup of your faithful friend after the appointment concludes. It's essential to inform your veterinarian's office that Forever Loved Pets will be handling your pet's remains, ensuring a seamless release to us.

For those who find it challenging to manage the journey or are unable to transport their pet to a euthanasia appointment, a caring member of Forever Loved Pets staff will come to your home. They will pick up your beloved pet, transport them to your veterinarian's office, offer comfort and affection throughout the euthanasia process, and then transfer your cherished companion to our facility, where they will be treated with dignity according to your instructions.

An unexpected death can be extremely difficult. Not being able to say goodbye, especially for children, can leave a wound that may take a long time to heal. At Forever Loved Pets we understand the human need for closure and want to give every family this opportunity.

If your boarding facility, or pet care giver, calls with this sad news, let them know that you wish Forever Loved Pets to care for your pet’s body. Then give us a call and we will discuss your preferences and make arrangements to collect her body. Among these options will be the opportunity to say goodbye to your beloved companion when you are home from your trip.
