Your Aftercare Options
After the house call, we will take your precious pet with us and make all the necessary arrangements for cremation. We offer two options:
Private Cremation:
Your pet will be individually cremated and then your pet’s ashes will be returned in a cedar urn with a personalized name plate and white clay paw print.
We also provide the unique option of having your pet’s ashes placed in a Living Urn® which is a fully biodegradable urn designed to transform your beloved pet into a vibrant living memory tree, plant, or flower.
Choose your own plant and start it from a seedling or sapling that will grow in the name of your loved one. By choosing this option, you can celebrate and memorialize the life of your pet by transforming death into a return to life through nature.
Communal Cremation:
Your pet will be cremated with other pets. You can then choose to have your pet’s ashes buried in a pet cemetery, or respectfully scattered at sea in the Pacific Ocean, in accordance with state regulations.
The cremation service we use is West Coast Pet Memorial (WCPM)
We hand-selected this crematory because it is a business that we trust. Your beloved pet will be tracked throughout the entire aftercare process. They will treat your pet with respect, like it was a member of their own family. You can rest assured that your pet is in good hands with WCPM.
Most pet parents choose pet cremation, however there are other options as well. Where permitted by law, you may bury your pet in your back yard. If you choose to do this, please check with your local ordinances and make sure you bury your pet at least 3 – 4 feet deep. You may also opt to bury your pet at a pet cemetery.
Glass Memorial:
If you choose private cremation, we also offer the option to have a special glass memorial made. The glass memorials are hand-crafted, using crystal glass. They incorporate a small amount of cremation ashes, allowing you to scatter, bury, or store the remainder in traditional memorial urns and keepsake urns.
Orbs
With the exception of the Solid Orb, you may choose up to two colors within all the other Orbs, and have the option of adding a decorative wrap of glass around the base of the Orb. It comes it two sizes: small is approximately 2 – 3 inches in diameter and 1 – 2 pounds; large is approximately 4 – 5 inches in diameter and 3 – 4 pounds.
These Orbs glow magically upon our Mahogany Lighted Stands.
