I feel kinda conflicted about this whole pet cemetery thing 
. On one hand, it's beautiful that people are recognizing the importance of their human-animal relationships and wanting to find a way to honor those bonds. I mean, who wouldn't want to spend their last goodbye with Fido or Whiskers? 
But at the same time, it's also kinda worrying that this trend is becoming more mainstream and we're starting to normalize the idea of parting ways with our pets in such a... permanent way 
.
I don't know if I'll ever be ready to pay €200 for a spot on some pet cemetery
. It just seems like there are so many other ways to celebrate those memories, you know? Like, we can take them out on walks one last time, create these amazing digital memorials or even just have a proper old-fashioned funeral with all the trimmings 
.
But I guess that's the thing - it's all about what makes sense to each individual. If pet cemeteries are really where people feel most at peace, then I'm not gonna judge
. It just means we need more options and support for those who can't afford or don't want a fancy farewell

. It's crazy how much has changed over time, yet some things remain the same... people still struggle to talk about losing a pet without feeling weird or judged 
. On one hand, it's awesome that there are resources like the Rainbow Bridge Pet Loss Grief Center helping people process their grief. On the other hand, €200 is a bit steep for many ppl, especially those who've lost more than one pet 
what's new? pets have always been part of our fam...
