Death Cafe for Pet Lovers
Presented by Rickie Redman

Calling all pet lovers! Please join us for tea and (human) treats as we honor the important role of pets in our lives. This special Death Café is dedicated to talking about our beloved pets, both those who have crossed the rainbow bridge and those who are still by our side. Together we will gather to share our thoughts and feelings around the love and loss related to our pet companions.

For some, there might be feelings related to the thought of a pet dying, even if they are healthy. There might be grief related to a recent loss or a death from long ago that still feels tender. Perhaps it’s sharing a favorite memory with a group who understands the joy and special bond between a human and their pet. We welcome tears, laughs and everything in between.

Keep in mind, this discussion group is a relaxed space without an agenda, rather than a grief group or counseling session. All ages are welcome, however minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Facilitated by Rickie Redman, Director of Aging in Place Services and End-of-Life Practitioner at the Susi Q, and Debbie Naude, End-of-Life Doula.

Please take a moment to review our terms and conditions.
