Yes, I received a sympathy card from my vet when I had to have Claudius PTS. It broke me up all over again, but it was a lovely thought and stayed on my fridge for weeks.

We got a card from our vets as well with a note written by Claire about how sorry she was, and how we'd done all we could.

I was very surprised and touched too that they'd taken the time to do that  :)

our vets send a card as well, I think it is a nice touch but was a bit shocked and upset at first

We got a card from the vet the other day but there was no verse in it. It was hand written though.
They got OHs name wrong (they must have misheard me but at least they tried  :)

I got a sympathy card

from the vets today.

It had a poem in

So sorry You've lost your pet

Not many people understand
Just how you feel today
and really its so difficult
to find the words to say
for you have lost a special friend
who meant so much to you
and they will stay inside your heart
whatever you may do
such precious recollections
of a love you truly shared
so just remember happy moments
smile if you can
be thankful for the time you had
and you will understand
although its hard there has to be
a time to say goodbye
but memories which are dear to you
will never ever die

Im off again now  :'( :'(
I miss Mogs so much and its so hard watching Amber look for her

I hope it may help others who've lost loved ones recently
 :hug: :hug:
love
