Hey! Dear Britt, I'm so sorry for your loss. I never take emotions behind a pet lost very seriously, why? I thought it's faked. After some time with my veterinarian dude, I knew what it means to lose a pet.
See, the pain of pet loss is real, because the emotions you shared with your pet were real. The grief associated with pet loss is valid, yeah, because you didn't lose a thing, you lost someone, someone close and someone special to you.
Wish I could give you more of my hugs. Deeply sorry for your loss.
