Having A Proper Burial For Your Pet

For many people, pets are family. If you love your pets like family, then you will want to memorialize them when their time comes. After all, animals give us years of enjoyment and companionship. The least we can do is see to it that they are memorialized forever after they pass on.

There are many pet urns available in a variety of styles to suit any family's tastes. You can easily find a cremation urn thatrepresents your pet's personality.

You can simply ask your veterinarian to cremate your beloved animal and give you the remains so that you can store them in a memorial piece.

When shopping for pet urns, there are a few things you need to consider. The first consideration is the size. Allow 1 to 2 cubic inches for every pound of the animal's weight.

If you have a 12 pound cat, for example, you should choose an urn that is between 12 and 24 cubic inches. It's better to go larger than smaller, so that you can be sure there will be adequate room.

Another thing to consider is what your pet would want. Don't just take your own personal taste into consideration - think about what your furry companion would want as well.

If your dogie loves chewing on bones, then you can get an urn shaped as a dog bone. If your feline companion loves prancing around like she's the Queen of the house, then you can get an urn shaped as a proud, statuesque cat.

There are also plenty of styles available for horses, rabbits, birds, hamsters, ferrets, and so on. For a horse, you will want to choose a full size horse cremation urn with a lovely figurine on top. Some stores also sell horse busts as cremation urns.

Next, you need to think about where you will be keeping the memorial piece. Will you be keeping it indoors or outdoors? In a garden or a vault?

Or perhaps you want to keep it in your home? Some are more suitable for indoors and some are ideal for outdoors.

If you want to keep the urn outdoors, then you will need to choose one that is made out of a durable material, such as steel, brass, or metal. There are also biodegradable urns available that can be buried.

They will return to the earth without causing any environmental harm. Your animal will ultimately become part of the earth. Marble is an elegant choice if you want to keep your pet's remains inside of a garden.
