Change the name and the story to theirs.

  • The loss of a dog

    I am so sorry about Bruno. He greeted me like an old friend every single time. He was a good boy and he had the best home.

    Make it yours: Their dog's name and one habit.

  • The loss of a cat

    I am so sorry about Luna. The windowsill will not be the same without her. She chose well when she chose you.

  • A friend

    Losing them is losing family. I am so sorry. Come for a walk with me this week, or do not, and I will bring tea.

  • A colleague

    I was so sorry to hear about your dog. All those calls he joined made him part of the team. Thinking of you.

  • A child

    I am sorry your friend is gone. You looked after him so well, and he knew you loved him.

  • Short

    I am so sorry. They were lucky to have you, and you them.

What to write in a pet loss card

  • Use the pet's name. It shows you knew them.
  • Tell one story: the stolen sandwich, the greeting at the door.
  • Say that the grief is real. It is.
  • Do not suggest a new pet.
