For many people, losing a pet isn’t “less” than any other kind of loss.

A new research survey found that the grief people experience after a pet’s death can be just as intense — and long-lasting — as grief after losing a human family member. Among nearly 1,000 adults surveyed, some showed symptoms consistent with prolonged grief disorder, including deep yearning and disruptions to daily life.

Researchers say the findings challenge the idea that pet loss is something people should simply “get over,” arguing that the emotional bond — and the pain when it’s broken — is often profound.

Our first custom blinged out casket for “qweenie”. I can not think of a better way to celebrate her life!

Morning dog snuggles = instant perspective. No matter what happens, they just want love.

I would love to see how you start your morning with your pets!

Tomorrow I’m equal parts stressed and honored — I have a meeting to help put the wheels in motion on new laws to prevent what happened with “Loving Pet Care Crematory” (owner Rodney Ward, who is currently in jail) from ever happening again. The State’s Attorney’s office worked incredibly hard to bring these charges forward.

We need laws that actually protect grieving pet owners. At minimum:
- Providers entrusted with a deceased pet must be held accountable if they deceive families or fail to perform promised services.
- Criminal penalties and licensing consequences for serious misconduct.
- Mandatory chain-of-custody tracking, clear written contracts, and itemized invoices.
- Required restitution for affected families.

Please wish me luck — I hope this meeting is the first step toward real change. Thank you for your support.bo if g by eyx

Can you lend a helping hand to Clover? Seeking a skilled sewer in Baltimore or Maryland to sew up his amputee onesies outfit clothing, I will provide the fabrics and compensation for your time and talent. Call/text 443-567-3192 or zbudreski@gmail.com or on FB messenger. Clover says thank you for helping his mommy who could not sew to save her life!

Clover, professional patience practitioner, is currently holding his “I’ll wait” pose while his sister enjoys her spa day. He’s refreshed his “ready to go” stare, rehearsed three different tail-wag levels, and claimed the comfiest spot by the door. Keep an eye out for their transportation — if you see a suspiciously proud pooch directing traffic, that’s probably him. 🚗🐾😂

Meeting minutes from today’s important office meeting:

Attendees: Clover (Head of Strategic Napping) 🐱, Buddy (VP of Snack Acquisition) 🐶, and the stunned Human (CEO).

Agenda:
1) “Sleep on the job” — Clover presented a compelling 47-minute case study proving conference tables are in fact prime nap real estate. Verdict: unanimously approved (by Clover). 💤
2) Lunch theft — Buddy accepted responsibility for “reallocating” the boss’s sandwich. Motive: science. Remorse level: zero. Said sandwich now a historical artifact. 🥪➡️🐾

Resolution: Formal reprimand to be delivered as belly rubs, extra treats, and a stern-yet-affectionate stare (from HR—aka the human). Meeting adjourned for mandatory cuddle break.

Any objections? (Asking for a friend.) 😼🐶❤️

Hey hoomans, Clover here! 🐾

I’ve learned something very important: if you work hard, you nap harder. Professional snoozer? Fur sure. After my big adventures, mom’s been taking extra time to sew me tripod clothes so I don’t have to wear that dreaded cone of shame — comfort level: 100, zoomies still pending. 😴✨

Do you have a cone-free hack or a cozy outfit for your tripod pal? Drop a pic in the comments or tag Charm City Pet Crematory — they’re a paws-itively lovely local crew we adore. Give them a like and tell them Clover sent you! Want to see more sleepy snaps? Share your “work hard, nap hard” moments below and I’ll send a wag. 🐶💤💕

We are excited to introduce Clover James, the newest member the three-legged Pomeranian! He will be a CCPC comfort dog. We cannot thank Leah from Bring Em Home Rescue and Trapping enough for making a connection with this sweet boy. Keep an eye out for him and his take on working at our center with “Cloves Corner”!
