Writing pet sympathy card messages can by as easy as find a quote or verse and personalizing your card with a sympathy sentiment.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when writing a message for pet loss.

You should use the pet’s name, instead of referring to the pet as “your dog” or “your cat.”

Your message should be brief. Pet sympathy card messages can be a simple line or two about your favorite memory of the pet.
You might want to say something like, “I remember when you first brought Maggie home, she was such a cute puppy.”
You can also mention one of the animal’s positive or lovable traits, for example:
“Toby was a great friend.”
Some other pet attributes you might want to use are:

  • a joy to be around
  • a loyal companion
  • a comforting presence
  • a faithful friend
  • a cheerful presence
