How to select the right saying to use when someone has lost a pet.
Whether you’re writing a card for a new baby, looking to wish someone a happy anniversary, or are giving words of encouragement to someone starting a new job, selecting the right sayings is a huge part of the process. Finding the right words for someone who has lost a pet is a sensitive subject matter, but these tips and tricks might help you on that journey.
Find the right tone.
Finding the right tone is so critical. If the pet’s owner is looking for a more positive point of view, one that celebrates the pet’s life, then words of sadness and loss do not feel appropriate. In contrast, it’s important not to go too far the other way. Tone is thus a huge part of the process.
Consider the owner’s personality.
We often think we can learn about someone just from social media and their digital footprint. But in truth, there’s only so much one can find out from a Pinterest board. Create sayings and messages that reflect the pet owner’s own personality. Ensure that they will take the message you are sharing in the way you intended.
Reflect on the pet’s life.
