Feelings of loneliness during these difficult times can be magnified when dealing with the the loss of a pet. We’re all seeking new and safe ways to connect and support one another at this time, which is why we have shifted our usual in-person Pet Loss Support Group to a virtual platform so that we can still support those who need it.
Find comfort and compassion in Hawaiian Humane’s Virtual Pet Loss Support Group, facilitated by counselor Rosemarie Grigg on the first Tuesday of every month via video conference. Spaces are limited and open to the public as well as current attendees. To RSVP and receive the link to join the private virtual meeting, please email outreach@hawaiianhumane.org.

Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is never easy. When a person dies, there is often a network of family, friends and professionals to help loved ones with the painful process of grieving. When a pet dies, those left behind are often alone with their grief. Celebrate your pet’s life in so many ways.
- Record happy memories in a journal or a letter.
- Make a photo album or collage.
- Plan a memorial service.
- Volunteer to help animals.
- Make a donation in memory of your pet to the Humane Society.
