End-of-Life Services & Pet Loss Support

End-of-life services at Kenton and Cathedral Animal Hospital are designed to provide compassionate support and care for pets and their families during a difficult time. These services typically include:

1. Quality-of-Life Assessments
   Our veterinarians help pet owners evaluate their pet’s comfort and quality of life, offering guidance on whether it may be time to consider euthanasia based on medical, emotional, and ethical factors.

2. Palliative and Hospice Care
   For pets nearing the end of their lives, we can provide palliative treatments to manage pain, maintain dignity, and enhance comfort in your pet's final days or weeks.

3. In-Clinic Euthanasia
   Euthanasia is offered in a calm and private environment at our clinics. Our veterinary team ensures the procedure is as peaceful and stress-free as possible for both your pet and your family.

4. Aftercare Services
   Our practices often collaborate with local cremation services to handle your pet’s remains, offering options such as Aquamation, as well as standard communal or private cremation. Keepsakes, such as paw prints or fur clippings, may also be offered as mementos.

These services aim to honor your pet’s life while ensuring they pass with dignity, peace, and love.
