The death of a much loved and cherished animal friend can be a very deep and significant loss to a loving human companion.

We bond very closely with our pets and they become part of the family, enriching our lives in so many ways with unconditional love.  A pet memorial service can be a helpful and comforting way to remember the life of your pet.

Many people feel that laying their beloved pet to rest is a last act of love and can often help in the healing process.  You can choose to honour the memory of your beloved pet with a burial or cremation service, where family and friends can share their stories of your pet, acknowledge their death and celebrate their life.

Pet cemeteries usually offer full burial and cremation services, for pets of every description including dogs and cats, as well as more exotic pets such as birds, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets, snakes, lizards, turtles and fish.

Parents often worry about the effect on their children when a pet dies, and these services provide a wonderful way to help families understand and give closure to the sad loss of the passing of their best friend.  They will conduct a personalised service to help you say goodbye to your pet, and if you wish, children can be given a role in the ceremony.

Some of the options available include a celebrant to conduct the service, a lock of fur and a paw print, a copy of the eulogy, and morning or afternoon tea for your guests.  You can choose to have the service at home, in the park where you spent time or a favourite location.

You can contact a Pet Cemeteries and Crematoriums directly and they will make all of the necessary arrangements for you.

Some Pet Cemeteries and Crematoriums offer pre-payment plans that will ensure that your wishes will be carried out, without you having to make arrangements at an upsetting time.
