Can you promote here?

The rules prohibit promoting your own product here. You can still be genuinely useful in comments (which builds the account standing every other community checks), but any promotional post or link is likely to be removed and can earn a community ban.

From the rules · Only self posts allowed; images okay inside the self post; no fundraising or business promotion; not for lost-pet/Found posts; posts auto-archive after 6 months.

Links are prohibited in posts or comments. Name things in plain text; interested readers will search.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: story, discussion, question

Headline: short, heartfelt (e.g., ‘Saying goodbye to Luna, 2010–2026’). Write in first person, sharing memories, feelings, and timeline; include one or more images inline in the self-post if you wish. Typical length: a few short paragraphs to a long personal tribute. Tone: gentle, grieving, supportive; upvoted posts offer sincere memories or ask/offer emotional support. Removed: promotional, fundraising, trolling, or unrelated ‘lost pet’ news.

Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.

Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked August 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/petloss's rules page before posting anything that matters.

Thread Otter checks this before every send

These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
