There are a number of different options available for paying your respects to pets. Choose the method that not only will bring some comfort but also help with the grieving process.

Pet Cemetery Burial

Pet cemeteries are found in many towns and municipalities and provide families with a place to lay their pet to rest. Local town offices should have the rules, regulations and fees associated with laying a pet to rest in the cemetery. Depending on the town in which a family resides also determines whether or not a pet can be buried on the family's property. Choosing a place to visit your pet can provide a measure of comfort and peace. It is important to check with the town office to determine the rules and regulations with pet burial on town or personal property.

Pet Cremation Urns and Jewelry

Pet cremation urns are another option when it comes to having ...
... a resting place for a family pet. Many families choose the option of cremation for their pet and a local veterinarian should have all the necessary information on pet cremation. Most vet offices carry a wide assortment of brochures or information on obtaining pet memorial urns. Shopping online for a pet urn may not only offer more variety but also a less expensive price than purchasing through a vet. Most online retailers can overnight or express ship your pet wood urn if the family requests it.

Another unique expression of remembering and honoring a pet is to select pet cremation jewelry.

Typical tributes would be cremated ashes, some ground from where a pet was buried or some fur. Pet jewelry urns allow entire families to have a part of their pet that they can carry with them. Key chains, rings, pendants and bracelets are just a few of the keepsake ideas available.
