Where there is grief, there is deep love.

Remember the Pet You Loved
Reflection questions about life with your dog, cat, or other pet, like how they greeted you at the door and their silliest habit.
Alone, Together, or as a Gift
Write your answers like a journal, talk them through with someone who understands, or give the deck to a friend whose pet has passed.
If a Child Loved Them Too
Half the deck, 35 cards, is kid-friendly (marked 7+). All other cards are accessible for older kids and adults.
Keep the Little Things
The backs are blank for the small things you want to remember, like a nickname only your family used or a story you want to cherish.

Hand fanning Grief Is Human Pet Edition cards: "What has been the hardest part of adjusting to life without your pet?"

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I spend $39 on a deck of cards?

We know you want to spend your hard-earned money on things that are truly worth it. Here's why we believe our decks are, and why we've sold over 200,000 of them. And if you don't agree, you get 100% of your money back.

1. Free questions exist, and we hope you try them

More meaningful conversations is our whole mission. We made our decks because the free questions we found online or tried generating with AI, and even the decks we paid for, never hit the spot. The kind of conversation you never forget comes from spending an unreasonable amount of time writing and rewriting with real humans. It's what we do best.

2. Years of research and real-world testing

We hand-write every card with experts who test them with their clients, and hundreds of playtesters who use them with the people in their lives. We try to make every reprint better based on customer feedback we continuously collect.

3. Informed by neuroscience and over $50,000 in programs and therapy

In the last decade we've personally gone through more than $50,000 in inner work programs, workshops, and therapy. Some of what we've learned from:

– Cognitive and behavioral neuroscience

– Internal Family Systems (IFS)

– Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

– Nonviolent Communication (NVC)

– Emotional inquiry and executive coaching

– Social and emotional learning (SEL)

– Meditation and body awareness

– Grief counseling

We draw on all of it in every card we write.

4. Made to last 1 to 2+ years

Our favorite way to use a deck is one card a week. I did this with my parents for a year, one question a week on a call, and it felt like we made more progress in getting closer than potentially decades on our own. A dinner out for two can cost $60 to $90, once. A deck used weekly for a year is only $0.75 a week.

5. Made with love and care by a small family business

We have no outside investors, so we spend extra on what we care about: recyclable and reusable packaging, 1,200 GSM boxes, matte-laminated cards, Pantone colors, and organic pigments. My mom and dad pack every order by hand, and we regularly donate decks to nonprofits and community organizations.

6. They cost less the more you add

One deck is $39. Any four are $78 ($156 separately), or $19.50 each, so you can have these conversations with everyone in your life.
