What You Should Expect When Finding A Mortuary For Pets

For some people, a pet is an important part of their family. Such individuals may want to honor the relationship they have with the animal even after it has died. A pet mortuary offers a selection of services that can help in the proper preservation and disposal of the animal. There are various factors to be on the lookout for when picking a service provider.

Inquire whether the company offers pick-up services. Most mortuaries work in liaison with animal hospitals to pick up dead animals. If the animal dies in hospital, ask the hospital if they are affiliated with any service provider, who will pick up the remains. If the animal passes on in your house, call the company directly and ask them to pick up the animal.

Think about how the animal will be taken to the facility. In most instances, the company will provide a cloth, which can be used to wrap the dead animal during transportation. You can also provide a soft fabric for wrapping the animal.

Choose the disposal method that you want. A cremation or burial can be done. A burial is appropriate if you cannot stand the thought of having the remains of the animal burned. You can request to have the ashes of the animal sent back to you, if you opt for a cremation.

You can come up with creative ways to remember the animal. You can request the facility to give you a part of the animal, so that you can keep it as a souvenir. This may include the skin or any other part of the body.

When choosing a funeral home, find out what their costs are. The amount charged usually depends on the type and size of animal you have. It also depends on the type of service you want, be it cremation or a burial and any other additional stuff you may have to buy, like an urn.
