Acknowledge the silence, skip the guilt
"We miss you" works. "We noticed you haven’t opened our last eight emails" does not — it reads as surveillance, and post-MPP it is often not even true.

Import
How to import this template into Klaviyo, step by step.
The download is a single HTML file. Here is where it goes in Klaviyo, what the platform expects, and which tags are already wired up.
- Open Content, then Templates, in the Klaviyo sidebar.
- Choose Import and upload the downloaded HTML file.
- Name the template and save it.
- Replace every placeholder before you send — image sources, link targets, product and price copy, the sender name and the footer address. Klaviyo’s editor handles copy and images inline, or edit the HTML directly and re-import.
- Attach it to a campaign, or to a flow email, when you build the send.
Editing Klaviyo opens an imported HTML template in its own editor. Copy and images are editable there, and the underlying structure stays as generated, so the layout does not drift between sends.
Watch for Klaviyo rejects an import that carries no unsubscribe tag. This template already wraps {% unsubscribe_link %} in its footer link, so it imports as-is — if you rebuild the footer, keep that tag.
Swapping the placeholder images
Klaviyo opens an imported template in its own editor, so the images can be swapped there without touching the HTML. Upload yours to Klaviyo first, then point each image block at it. Editing the file before you import works too — Klaviyo keeps whatever src it is given.

When to send this re-engagement email, and what to change first.
When to send it
This is not a broadcast. It is a flow timed to the consumption cycle, where the trigger is elapsed time since the last order, sized to how long a bag of that food actually lasts. A small dog on a large bag and a large dog on a small bag are two different intervals, so set the delay per product or per size rather than once for the whole catalog. That timing is configured on the flow in Klaviyo. The template carries none of it.
What to change first
Pawform owns the masthead link, the footer legal block and the copyright line. The reorder module is the weak point out of the box: “Their favorite feast” names no product, so pull the item from the customer’s last order instead of shipping a generic headline. The subscribe-and-save block promises 15% off every order, which has to match your real plan. Both the “Reorder now” button and the “Set up a subscription” link point at example.com/sub, and the two dog photos are stock.
The craft
What makes a re-engagement email worth sending.
Make the exit visible
A preferences arrow-link and a soft "or unsubscribe here" in the pre-footer. Respecting the reader’s choice is part of the voice, and a clean list is worth more than an inflated one.
Protect the sender reputation
Frequency should match engagement — send most often to the recently engaged, and to contacts dormant past six months only inside a campaign like this one. Repeatedly mailing the disengaged is what trains inbox providers to route you to spam.

Questions
Klaviyo template questions, answered.
Can I use this template in a Klaviyo flow, or only a campaign?
Both. An imported template is available to any campaign or flow email you build afterwards. The trigger and the timing are configured on the flow itself, not in the template.
Do I need a paid Klaviyo plan to import a custom HTML template?
No. Template import is available on Klaviyo’s free tier, which covers up to 250 profiles. Removing Klaviyo’s own footer branding is the paid-plan feature, not the import.
Should a win-back email include a discount?
Only if the reason they left was price. Give them a reason to stay or an easy exit — a reflexive discount teaches the engaged half of your list to wait for the next one.
Does Pet food replenishment reminder — Klaviyo hold up in dark mode and Outlook?
Every zone sets its background twice — once as a bgcolor attribute and once as an inline background-color — which is the pattern that survives dark-mode inversion in clients that repaint backgrounds.
The “Reorder now” button is a bulletproof VML button, so Outlook on Windows draws a real filled button instead of collapsing it to a bare text link.
The layout is a 600px table backbone with a mobile breakpoint, and the CSS is already inlined for the clients that strip style blocks.
