What Pets Do When Death Is Near


Listen Later

Have you noticed a pet acting differently as someone approaches the end of life?

In this episode of Sit With It, Dr. Dandridge explores the quiet, often unsettling ways animals respond to transition, presence, and goodbye. Drawing from years of hospice chaplaincy, this conversation offers comfort, clarity, and grounded guidance for families who witness unusual pet behavior during end-of-life moments.

This is not about superstition—it’s about presence, stillness, and sacred companionship.

🎧 Topics include:

• Why pets stay close at the end of life

• What animal behavior does (and doesn’t) mean

• How to respond without fear or over-interpretation

• Honoring pets as companions in sacred moments

👉 Subscribe for thoughtful conversations on grief, faith, and sitting with life’s hardest moments.
