I recently lost a very precious family member and I am having a tough time coping. Is there a Lemmy-equivalent community for Pet Loss? I've done a fair amount of searching but haven't found anything active or similar. Apologies if this has been asked for the hundredth time.

Sorry for your loss

I'm sure we can give a go at helping you here, if you can't find a more suitable community

Thank you, kindly. Your offer to help means a great deal to me, however I don't want my grief to affect those in this community who are vulnerable to such emotions. I also understand it's not the nicest of topics and most people would prefer to avoid it.

If there is no current community for it, I suppose I may have to make one myself.
