I completely understand why you're worried. It's a tough situation to consider the mental and emotional state of our pets after something traumatic. While animals might not grasp the concept of "killing" in the way humans do, they are highly perceptive and can be deeply affected by changes in their environment and the absence of a companion.
Pet B might not specifically understand the act, but it could sense something significant happened, particularly if it witnessed the event or frequently interacted with Pet A. Animals often show signs of stress or grief when another pet is no longer around. These signs can include changes in behavior, like being more withdrawn, changes in appetite, or even searching for the lost companion.
At home, provide comfort and a stable routine for Pet B. Offer extra attention, playtime, and comforting spaces. Monitor their behavior closely for signs of stress or anxiety that don’t seem to improve, such as excessive vocalization, destructive behavior, or a refusal to eat.
If you're concerned about Pet B's well-being or if they display prolonged distress, it's a good idea to consult with a veterinarian who can provide tailored advice and reassurance. Please consider booking a video consult with Dial A Vet to discuss Pet B's specific needs in more detail.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
