2016/5/4 10:13:05

The death of any family member is tragic enough; but the death of a beloved pet holds its own terrible sense of loss. Dealing with this loss is no less difficult. The same applies to the mourning period which one must pass through if they are to move beyond their pain. Many hard choices will be made during this trying time. Tending to the pet's memorial services, if any are to be held, and its final resting place are just a few. One option is burial at a pet cemetery. Nearly every state in the United States has pet cemeteries.

For those who can afford it there are a variety of cemeteries and services available, including public and private accommodations. You may choose to go with a burial or cremation. For burial services a wide variety of caskets and headstones are available. For cremation there are several different styles and sizes of urns to choose from; each can be uniquely engraved representing the individual pet. Additionally, there are a host of bereavement services which may be selected to help the family members cope with their loss and move on.

In addition to burial and cremation options, many facilities offer a variety of remembrance services which include bronzed dog collars, small stones, figurines, and an assortment of plaques - all depicting the pet's name and/or likeness. There are even internet based virtual memorials for pets who have passed away. This allows anyone the ability to visit the pets memorial any time they wish, day or night, from virtually anywhere in the world.

Another service being offered to help people cope with the loss of a pet is cloning. Currently certain South Korean labs are the only ones in the world cloning animals including pets. While this practice, reminiscent of the box office movie The Sixth Day - starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, is extremely controversial it is seen by some as a viable alternative to the permanent loss of a pet. People who are pro-cloning have argued that in addition to pets, endangered species could be saved through this method as well. Additionally, they point out that animals such as dogs, used in rescue and law enforcement for everything from finding bodies to sniffing out drugs and bombs, could be cloned as well.

Many people choose to bury deceased pets within the confines of their own properties. While this may be an option for homeowners, those living in apartments or condominiums do not have this option. For them a pet cemetery and the services it has to offer is the only option. It gives them a nearby place where they can visit their pet and pay their respects. No matter how we choose to deal with the loss of a beloved pet there are many services available to us.
