What To Notice 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.
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.
The method of transportation matters. Ask the company which mode of transportation they will use and if they only transport the animals or any other things. Most animal owners prefer to have the animal wrapped in a cloth, rather than having it dumped into a plastic bag.
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.
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.
How much the funeral home charges for its services matters. You will have to get in touch with the company to know how much you will have to pay. This is because charges mainly depend on the specific services you want. You can compare costs of different mortuaries to decide which one to use.
