How would you feel if you just lost a big part of your life, amp quot someone amp quot very special to you?
Meet Aleta. She has two best friends, Cassie and Nina, and she wants to be a vet. Aleta knows that animals don't live forever, but when her dog Kate dies, she can't believe it. It just feels so unfair! And she doesn't want to talk about it. She wants to be alone, and she's really sad and a little angry, too.
With the help of her family and friends, Aleta learns to deal with her feelings and comes to be able to remember Kate with happiness.
From the Tip Sheet for coping with the death of a beloved pet:
The death of a pet is sad and difficult. Feeling lots of strong emotions now is normal. But you don amp rsquo t have to go through it alone. Remember that you can and will get through this with the help of your family and friends.
