First Days Support Pack

The First Days Support Pack

For the days after losing a pet, when even the smallest things feel difficult.

The house feels different. The routines you shared have disappeared. You might be struggling to sleep, finding it difficult to concentrate, or going over everything that happened and wondering whether you could have done something differently.

And there are moments when you simply don’t know what to do with yourself.

The First Days Support Pack was created for those moments.

It brings together practical guidance, emotional support and manageable resources to help you through the first days and weeks after losing a beloved pet.

You don’t need to read everything. You don’t need to follow a programme. You can begin wherever you need help today.

What’s included

Three detailed guides

• How To Get Through The First Days (41 pages): For the shock, exhaustion, sleepless nights and practical decisions that can feel overwhelming when you’ve just lost your pet.
• The Pet Loss Guilt Guide (45 pages): For the questions that keep coming back. The decisions you replay, the things you wish you’d done differently, and the painful what-ifs.
• The Quiet Home (44 pages): For the empty spaces, the missing routines, their belongings, and the difficulty of living in a home that no longer feels the same.

Three shorter companions

• Emergency Calm Pages (13 pages): Short, focused pages to turn to when your feelings become overwhelming and you need something manageable to read.
• Today Counts (4 pages): A simple checklist for the days when getting through ordinary tasks feels difficult.
• A Few Words (6 pages): Gentle writing prompts for the memories, feelings and things you still wish you could say.

Plus two additional resources

• Start Here (5 pages): A simple introduction to help you find the resource that best suits what you’re experiencing.
• A Gentler Thought (2-page access guide): Access to a private, browser-based reflection tool that helps you work through one guilt thought that keeps coming back, in five guided stages. No account is needed. Your writing stays on your device, and you can save or print your session.

The First 72 Hours is a free introduction to the earliest days of pet loss.

The First Days Support Pack goes further, with detailed guidance on grief and guilt, support for coping with an empty home, short resources for difficult moments, and a private reflection tool.

It’s a collection you can return to as often as you need.
