Pet memorial gifts and pet sympathy cards

For many people, having a pet die is a loss equal to losing any other member of their family. Our pets provide unconditional love and live forever in our hearts and memories. When a pet crosses the rainbow bridge, their owners may experience all the stages of grief, including denial, anger, depression and acceptance. There’s no right or wrong way to mourn the loss of your pet. Let yourself grieve but also remember all the happy moments spent together.

Making the decision to have your dog, cat or other four-legged furry pal put down can be truly heartwrenching. Send a friend going through this difficult time a pet sympathy card with a heartfelt condolence message to let them know they’re in your thoughts. If you’re unsure how to get started, our writers have a few suggestions for what to write in a sympathy card for loss of pet. Browse both dog sympathy cards and cat sympathy cards. You can even add a handwritten message and signature to the card using your phone, and we'll stamp and mail it for free.

Many people like to keep their pet’s memory alive with a special remembrance ceremony or pet memorial gifts. These special cat or dog remembrance gifts include memorial pet stones, jewelry or figurines. Other pet loss gifts include Christmas ornaments or picture frames featuring photos of their beloved pup or kitty.
