Facts To Know When Choosing A Pet Mortuary
Individuals who have domesticated animals may grow to be attached to them after sometime. To this end, when the animal dies, they may want to have it disposed off in a respectful manner. A pet mortuary can come in handy in this regard. Knowing a few things will help you find a good facility, whose services you can use.
When the animal dies, you should find out if the company will pick up its remains. In most cases, the companies pick up animals from animal hospitals. However, if the animal dies at home, you can call the staff of the company to find out if they can pick it up from your house. Most companies operate throughout the day and night throughout the year.
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 internment method that you are most comfortable with. The animal can either be buried or cremated individually or in mass grave. If you want the ashes of the animal returned to you, opt for individual cremation. If you do not want the ashes back, then mass cremation will be suitable.
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.
