Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect if my pet passes at home and what should I do and not do?2024-01-11T16:14:11+00:00

What to expect?

When your pet first passes, you may find it difficult to handle their remains and you may want your pet to be collected immediately. Alternatively, you may want to stay with your pet for a while. It is normal to experience a range of feelings and each person will handle this differently.

Your Pet may still show signs of ‘life’ like twitching, expelling air, and release of bodily fluids and gas, these are just natural bodily functions that may continue after a pet dies naturally. Being prepared for this will help, as this can be difficult to navigate.

If you choose to remain with your pet for some time, your pet should be left in a cool room for no longer than 24 hours. You should also be aware that rigor mortis – the stiffening of joints after death – can begin to set in from anywhere from 10 minutes to 3-4 hours after death.

Sadly death is unpleasant and decomposition will begin shortly afterwards. Depending on your collection wishes – We would suggest if possible placing something underneath your pet and also wrapping them in a blanket or something similar.

If you have a cool place it is a good idea if possible to move them there until you have arranged collection with Beloved Pets

Try not to leave your pet on a carpet or sofa to prevent fluid stains.

Place a towel under the tail and mouth of your pet. This will protect flooring and furnishings. If your pet dies with their legs stretched out, gently fold them in closer to the body if they haven’t already stiffened. This will make it easier to move your pet and also gives off the impression your pet is asleep and peaceful.

If you have other pets do allow them to smell as it will help them to understand what has happened and they can start to grieve.
