Resumo: |
The domestic animal is considered a family member and it fills individual needs, improving the pet‟s owners‟ self-esteem by offering affection and companionship, among other perceived benefits. On the other hand, when a pet dies, an emptiness overcomes the owner, with grief by the loss of a significant creature in his life history. The aim of this study was to investigate, by means of a quantitative research, the recognition of the loss by pet‟s death. For this purpose, a survey was done by means a questionnaire published and answered on a page available on the internet by bereaved pet owners whose pet had died less than five years before. The study had 360 participants. A qualitative research was also done with a recorded interview, looking to describe the grief of six bereaved owners who lost their pets by pet´s death less than one year from the date of the interview to comprehend the bond formed with the animals. The grief is similar to the one which takes place when a dear person dies. This outcome suggests that there are three categories of dyads between people and pets: 1) relational dyad, 2) bond dyad and 3) attachment dyad that influencing in the differences of the intensity in their distress and lasting grief. Other studies to assess primary attachment styles and adulthood are necessary to confirm and to deepen these results, considering the repercussion in the bond with pets |
