National Pet Memorial Day, September 11, 2005
What Is National Pet Memorial Day?
The International Association of Pet Cemeteries (IAPC) has designated the second Sunday in September as National Pet Memorial Day, a day set aside to remember our departed animal friends.
Special events such as open houses and remembrance ceremonies are held at many pet cemeteries. A national listing of events can be found at http://www.stonesofglass.com.
Your cherished pet will always have a special place in your heart, no matter how you choose to remember your departed friend. Below we list several ideas:
Participate in online memorials and ceremonies or have one by your pet's favorite place.
Immortalize your pet in glass by the artist's at Stones of Glass http://www.stonesofglass.com
Put a paw print in clay that will harden with your pets name and date as a keepsake.
Create a living memorial by planting a tree or bush at Tree Givers, http://www.treegivers.com/index-pets.html

... br /> Participate in online pet loss groups to remember your beloved companions.
Collect photographs and make a photo album or scrapbook, frame pictures or just carry them with you in your wallet.
Start a pet loss support group in your area or volunteer your time at an animal shelter.
Collect your favorite pictures and turn them into a screen saver for your computer.
Make a donation to your favorite cause in memory of your pet.
Watch old video taken of your pet with you and your family.
Call the people who were closest to your pet and invite them over to your house and exchange stories with each other about good times spent with your pet.
