4、3 These women might sound eccentric or even neurotic to some readers, but their reaction is fully understandable to those who have lost someone or something special, says Tsukimi Washizu, a veterinarian and lecturer at Nippon Veterinary and Zootechnical College. In Japan, where extended families are
5、 becoming a thing of the past and people are increasingly choosing to live alone, more people are beginning to keep pets as their companions. Pets give unconditional affection and comfort to humans, but their death can also bring them unbearable grief.4 n Animals become a part of your family. It is
6、very natural to be saddened over the death of your family/ Washizu says. Many people, however, will consider you a little strange if you take even a single day off for your pets funeral, while theyll give you sympathy for a death in your family and allow you to take several days off from work or sch

While many books on how to raisea and train pets have been published, this book is probably the first book on pet loss* aimed at ordinary pe
8、t owners in Japan, she says. The book includes such subjects as the terminal care of pets, how to deal with the remains after the death, and advice on how to cope with the loss of pets.6 The term pet loss came into usage in the late 70s among some veterinarians and psychotherapists in the United Sta
9、tes and Europe. Beyond the physical loss, the term encompasses the pet owners1 psychological stress - such as grief, depression, anger, separation anxiety, guilt, sleeping and eating disorders, fatigue, sickness, transient auditory and visual hallucinations and so on.7 Although pet loss has recently
10、 become a topic in the Japanese mass media, Washizu is skeptical about the coverage. HMedia tend to sensationalize the story, focusing on only extreme cases, but it could make readers or viewers mistakenly believe thebeer on tap. 11:30 midnight. 19 Farthington St. Tel. 32341111.13 Disney Store Walt

Organizations such as these offer a wide range of goods and products from used household items to baby clothes.
25、 In many urban centers these types of shops cater to the needier segment of the population.4 But as recycling became fashionable during the 1980s, individuals opened secondhand shops geared to the middle and even upper classes of society.

Most people can get over the loss eventually, though it might take time.8 Keiko Yamazaki, a journalist and one of the authors of nPet no Shi J agrees with Washizu. nI wonder why the media is making such a fuss about the term Pet Loss Syndrome/ when we
38、don*t even have a term for spouse loss/ she says.9 Nevertheless, a general awareness is important. Yamazaki points out that very few pet specialists in Japan can properly guide troubled peat owners. In the U.S. and Europe, various forms of pet loss care support are offered. Veterinary hospitals offe

Telephone counselling has also been set up. * Trained volunteers man the telephone lines for callers twenty-four hours a day in some states i
40、n the U.S., listening to their stories about their pets, and giving them advice on how to deal with death. Self-help groups have also been organized in many cities in the U.S. and Europe. People who have lost their pets meet once a week to share their grief and try to readjust to life without their
41、pets. Books on pet bereavement and condolence cards for people who have lost their pets are also commonly sold. And although not all the people who have lost their pets are using these services, it is at least available. Veterinarian surveys report about 30 percent of pet owners in the U.S. may use
42、these services at one time or another. Pet owners claim that it doesnt matter how many use it, the most important point is that society recognizes the grief caused by the loss of pets.10 Chifumi Yoshida, a Kawasaki-based psychotherapist, is probably the only person in this country who is offering te
43、lephone counselling service for those suffering from pet loss. Since he started the service two years ago, Yoshida has had over 400 callers. Many callers dont need to phone him more than once, because they usually feel somehow relieved after sharing their feelings. Some, he says, seem to be meantall
44、y depressed, though the percentage is very low. nIf you have difficulty leading a normal social life for longer than two or three months, you should consult with a therapist/1 Yoshida says.11 According to Yoshida, many people do tend to humanize their pets, as if they were their children, so the pet
45、s death can impact people like the loss of a child would. Some callers openly say losing their pet caused them more grief than their parents death, he says.12 Often other peoples reactions have a great influence on recovery, Yoshida points out. Careless remarks such as nIt,s just a pet or You can ge
46、t another one can worsen grief and depression. Warm acceptance and compassion can help them get over the loss smoothly.
