What is Wolfie’s Wish?

After the sudden and tragic death of Erica's cherished cat, Wolfgang. Faced with the profound challenge of dealing with grief and trauma, particularly in light of her history of mental illness and addiction, Erica found herself in search of a simple yet effective coping mechanism. Disappointed by the absence of suitable resources, and spurred on by her mother, Bonnie, she ingeniously devised a remedy: Pet Loss Grieving Cards—the pioneering affirmation cards tailored for pet loss. Thus, Wolfie’s Wish was conceived.

Since its inception, the company has not only expanded its array of healing offerings but has also garnered acclaim, earning a prestigious Best New Product Showcase Award at the international pet retail tradeshow Superzoo in the summer of 2022. Wolfie’s Wish has evolved beyond the realm of affirmation cards, now encompassing a multifaceted platform that includes a podcast, online courses, a blog, a YouTube channel, virtual support, a private Facebook group, and therapeutic music curated from Erica’s background as a professional harpist and clinical musician.
