Each bond is unique, so feel free to share your wishes openly with us. We understand these times can be difficult, and we are here to support you. Below is a guide to what happens during our visit:
Our pets are our family
We are sorry you have found yourself in the position where you are considering euthanasia for your pet.
Our hospice vets work closely with you to make these last moments as peaceful and comforting as possible, taking into account every detail of your pet’s environment and condition. For example, we use an oral sedation protocol for rats to meet their specific needs and reduce stress as much as we can.
What does a visit for a pet euthanasia at home involve?
If you are at a stage where you need support with the process of decision making, please reach out to us. As one of our colleagues can discuss quality of life during an online visit with you. An online consult or phone consult can put your mind at ease that we have the knowledge and compassion to make it the visit as peaceful as possible.
All our vets are trained to identify the right pre-sedation protocol for your pet, ensuring a stress-free passing.
Please talk to us you don’t have to go through this difficult time on your own. We are here for you and available to answer any questions you might have. We also have a lot of information on our FAQ page.
Aftercare
At the end of the euthanasia visit, your hospice vet will assist you in arranging your pet’s aftercare. You can choose for your vet to transport your pet for cremation or arrange for crematorium staff to handle the collection directly. Our vets are here to guide you in selecting the best aftercare options based on your needs.
We recommend considering your preferences for cremation or burial ahead of time if possible. We understand that making decisions while grieving can be difficult, and we’re here to support you through the process.
