Grief is a deeply personal journey, shaped by emotion, memory, and environment. When we lose a beloved pet, the spaces where we say goodbye, reflect, and heal can profoundly impact our ability to process loss. Inspired by the work of philosopher Michel de Certeau, who distinguished between "place" (a physical location) and "space" (a meaningful environment shaped by movement and interaction), we understand that grief does not simply unfold in a place—it transforms within a space.
