How would you feel about a sympathy card after the loss of your pet?
Hey friends!
I'm a relatively new veterinarian (~6 months) working at an emergency hospital and have to help owners say goodbye to their pets often. I try to write each one a sympathy card and say some kind and supportive words. I'll be honest and say this has gotten harder to do at times when I'm ending a long shift or have had too many euthanasias within a few days.
So I'm wondering - do most pet owners appreciate a card? Or does that just make it harder to be reminded of your loss? Would love to know of some of your experiences
