For most, a pet is more than "just a pet," it's a member of the family. The loss of a pet is a personal traegdy - there's really no other way to put it. It's a loss we feel as sharply and painfully as losing any family member. Unfortunately, these days, comfort can be in short supply when the time comes. While the vet may handle cremation of a pet, most of the time the remains are returned in a cheap cardboard box or - in one case that left us pretty shocked - a paper bag. For something that meant - and means - so much, that generally doesn't feel right.

This is why we began offering the Memoria Pet Urn. This oak urn provides a beautiful, durable, and personal enclosure for cremains. As with almost all of our products, we will engrave the facing panel with unlimited text so you can say what you want to say - a poem, a quote, a personal message from you; whatever feels right to you is what we'll do. You also have the option of adding engraving as many of the other faces of the Memoria as you'd like. If you have a favorite photo of your pet, we can convert and engrave most snapshots, and we'll gladly put your pet as you'd like to remember them on your Memoria for an additional fee.

The loss of a pet is a deeply personal thing, and how you want to mark it is equally personal - and what feels right for you is what's right for you. Should you decide a memorial is what would make you feel best, we will be there to provide the memorial you want to see.
