Pet Loss Grief Support Group
2020-03-04 19:00 - 20:00 | Animal Welfare League of Alexandria, 4101 Eisenhower Avenue, Alexandria, VA, 22304, United States
Our pets are important members of the family. They are devoted companions who give us their unconditional love and acceptance. For a pet caregiver, the loss of a companion animal can be one of life’s most difficult experiences. When we lose a beloved friend, it often helps by sharing our feelings with others who have also experienced a similar loss.
For more than 25 years, Kathy Reiter has helped pet owners cope with their loss through the Pet Loss Support Group meetings at the shelter.
Kathy is recognized as the area’s leading authority on pet loss. By training, Kathy is a psychiatric social worker with a specialty in grief and bereavement. She has appeared on Good Morning America, CBS News and PBS stations. Kathy has also been featured in The Washington Post, Better Homes and Gardens, Good Housekeeping and other widely-circulated magazines.
Kathy was instrumental in establishing the hospice movement in the United States and was directly responsible for the construction of the first hospice in Arlington, VA. While the Arlington hospice was being built, Kathy’s beloved cat, Prince, was diagnosed with a terminal illness. While being experienced in human loss, Kathy was now faced with impending pet loss of her animal friend. Kathy turned for help, for resources, and yet found none. Through her own personal experience, Kathy came to realize the need for pet loss support, and generously offers her gentle support to anyone who is grappling with such a loss.
The support group meets at 7:00pm on the first Wednesday of the month in the shelter’s Community Room. There is no charge to attend these meetings and all are welcome.
Please come a few minutes early or ring the doorbell when arriving as we are closed to the public starting at 7:00pm.

On March 7, we invite the area’s most spirited pups to don their favorite costumes on-stage in Old Town’s Market Square to compete for the titles of “Most St. Paddy’s Spirit,” “Best Human/Canine Look-Alike” and “Most Creative Costume.”
The 2020 Fun Dog Show is sponsored by premiere sponsor McEnearney Associates.

This means that we have had to cancel or alter so many of our normal activities; we will not let it limit the services we offer to the community, but we can’t do it alone. Now more than ever, we have so many animals in our care — and so many more across the community — who need your help!
Make a difference, and make a donation today! On behalf of animals in need, we thank you!
