What You Should Expect When Looking Into A Proper Pet Funeral

When adults have been charged with organizing a pet funeral, they'll have to look into things carefully. They may even want to seek some professional advice early on in the process. There are a number of perfectly fine ways that a dog or cat can be honored with a memorial service.

People must first decide what they will do with the pet. Small birds, for example, can be gently placed in a shoebox and buried in the back yard. Larger animals will require a bit more planning. Dogs and cats might have to be buried in a larger box.

Other individuals might want to have a cremation instead. Instead of burying the animal in soil, the ashes can be scattered in the forest or added to an urn. Most urns are very decorative and will feature sealed tops. This way, the ashes will not become dislodged.

A ceremony for a beloved pet might also involve a number of pictures. Images of Fido or Fluffy in their younger days can be laid out for all to see. This is a wonderful way to honor the animal, and all attendees will be pleased with the choice. Some pictures might even be framed and set up near the grave for a few days.

Small kids might have an especially tough time with the loss of a family pet. They might need to have the situation gently explained to them by a loved one. With some delicate words, they will eventually understand that their animal friend will not be coming back.

At the end of the day, a pet funeral should be planned properly. Some families might wish to pull out all the stops. Whether they want to do a burial or a cremation, they can seek professional advice before they begin. Fluffy can be given an eminently elegant sendoff with flowers and memorial plaques.
