Welcoming 2026 With Love & Light
As we prepare to say goodbye to 2025 and welcome a new year full of hope and possibility, many of us find ourselves reflecting on the moments that mattered most. For pet lovers, those moments almost always include a wagging tail, a soft nuzzle, or the joyful chaos that only our beloved animals can create.
Pets are family and they make each year richer.
At Pet Perennials, we are deeply grateful to the pet parents and pet-centric businesses who trust us to help celebrate, honor, and remember the furry companions who shape our lives. Everything we do is built on one powerful belief:
Love lives on, especially when a pet is part of the story.
A Year of Memories and Meaning
This time of year brings a meaningful blend of joy and tenderness. We cheer for new beginnings while our hearts may ache for the pets who won’t be ringing in 2026 with us. Whether a new puppy joined your home or a cherished senior pet crossed the Rainbow Bridge, each of those experiences leaves lasting pawprints on our hearts. For many families, acknowledging that mix of joy and remembrance is what makes this time of year so emotional and so important.
Why Businesses Must Recognize Pet Loss
For many clients, losing a pet is losing a family member. When a veterinarian, groomer, dog walker, pet daycare, or pet retailer reaches out during that moment of grief, the gesture makes a profound impact. We’ve seen families cherish a simple condolence message, and we’ve witnessed how receiving a heartfelt package during a painful time deepens trust between a client and a business. Offering sympathy is far more than good customer service; it’s a compassionate expression that says: “Your loss matters and so does your pet.”
The Gift Perks Service: Compassion Made Easy
Our Gift Perks Service was created to help pet-centric businesses share comfort with grieving clients in a meaningful yet effortless way. We handle every detail, from thoughtful remembrance gift selections and personalized handwritten messages to careful gift wrapping and direct shipment to the recipient’s home. The pricing is all-inclusive and surprisingly affordable, without any monthly fees or order minimums. It allows businesses to focus on what truly matters: being there for those who are hurting and honoring the pets who brought joy into their lives.
Including Pets in the Countdown to 2026
As the New Year’s Eve celebrations begin, we encourage families to make one more memory with the pets who faithfully stay by their side. Offer them a festive treat made especially for them, take a “New Year’s kiss” photo together, and create a safe and cozy space for them to enjoy the excitement of the night. And if your celebration feels quieter this year because a beloved pet is no longer here, take a moment to reflect on the joy they brought you — the adventures you shared, the comfort they provided, and the unconditional love that remains long after they are gone. Those memories are gifts that endure well into the years ahead.
Looking Ahead with Gratitude
To all the wonderful customers and business partners who have supported our mission this past year: thank you for allowing Pet Perennials to be part of the loving legacy pets leave behind. Your dedication to your clients’ emotional well-being inspires us every day. Together, we will continue to support pet lovers through the excitement of every joyful hello and the tenderness of every heartfelt goodbye.
From our team to yours, wishing you a peaceful, hopeful, and heart-filled New Year as we welcome 2026.
