I Couldn’t Notice My Pet’s Illness: How Pet Memorial Goods Helped Me Heal From Days of Self-Blame

ペットオリジナルクッション

This is a knitted cushion I created by weaving threads together.

 

Sometimes, a knitted cushion like this can ease the deep pain of pet loss and help someone recover from the heavy burden of self-blame.

That’s because memorial goods remind us just how much we truly loved our pets.

Among those who have lost a pet due to illness or accident, many feel it was their fault.

Even when people around them say,
“It wasn’t your fault,”
those words don’t reach their heart.

Their guilt feels far too strong. And because they blame themselves so deeply, they can’t even recall how much love they gave their pet.

The greater the love, the greater the pain.

But then, there are moments that bring a sudden realization:
“I really did love my pet.”

This can happen when someone receives a memorial gift from a loved one, or when the custom-made item they ordered finally arrives at their door.

The joy in that moment often surprises them the most.

They say things like:
“I really did cherish my pet.”
“I can finally see just how much love I had to give.”

We never know what the turning point will be, but my hope is that someday you, too, will feel,
“I truly loved my pet. This pain I feel now is proof of that love.”
