Basics You Should Learn When Finding A Mortuary For Pets
A lot of people treasure their pets. They consider them to be an important part of their family. That is why when the animal dies, they may want to have it disposed off properly. You can utilize the services of a pet mortuary, to ensure that the animal gets a proper send off. A number of issues will come in handy when deciding which company to hire.
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.
Know how the funeral or cremation exercise will be carried out. You can have the animal buried in an individual or mass grave. If you want to have the remains of the animal returned to you, then an individual cremation is best. If you do not want the remains then opt for a mass cremation.
If you want to memorialize the animal, you can have souvenirs made from its body parts. This includes its paws, bones or fur. You can also have photos of it taken and used to make jewelry.
The costs charged by a funeral home varies. This largely depends on which services you want, the animal that you are having interred and which disposal method you go for. Ask the company if there are any other extra charges that you may have to foot.
