Pet Urns for Dogs and Cats

When your furry companion dies, there are decisions that need to be made: what is to be done with their ashes and how do you honor their life in a respectful way? Some people decide to have a service, complete with a ceremony and similar components to that of a person's memorial and other opt for a more simplistic, yet still meaningful approach. Urns may be obtained in order to serve as a resting place for a pet.

Urns for pets are available in a multitude of styles, designs, shapes and sizes to suit various tastes. The most common design models a traditional urn used for human remains as it is comparable in shape and classic style. Materials used to create urns include: glass, ceramic, stainless steel, wood, and biodegradable materials. Depending on the materials used, prices fluctuate.

Classic wooden urns are available for a pet's remains made out of different types of wood. Cherry, walnut and maple woods are frequently used for construction of Wooden Pet Urns. To add a personalized touch design characteristics can be incorporated. Pictures of your companion may be embossed, etched or encased on the top of various urns.

Ceramic decorative urns similar to those used for human remains are available for use for your pet. These urns are sealed to safeguard the remains and are typically placed on a mantel or shelving as a reminder of your pet. Both modern and traditional styles can be chosen.

Modern advances in memorials have mixed contemporary ideas with traditional preservation. Glass urns or memorial urns have been developed to utilize your pet's remains in the creation of a beautiful, decorative memorial. These memorials can take the form of a glass decoration (e.g. ornament), jewelry, or specialized urns. Using a small amount of your loved one's remains, respectfully, a modern urn is created and incorporated into the design of the product.

Environmentally-friendly urns using biodegradable supplies have also been developed as urns. Boxes, urns and other shaped containers can be ordered made of eco-friendly materials. Carefully designed water-Burial Urns are constructed with earth-friendly materials to float momentarily and then sink, releasing your pet's ashes into the water. Other ground burial, eco-friendly urns break down quickly and easily over time.

Additionally on the market are vaulted or keepsake urns. As with traditional vaults, vault urns seal your pet's remains permanently. Employing the use of various types of metals or steel, these vaults accommodate the remains for burials. Remains can also be sealed permanently using a keepsake urn with some designs making allowance for an unsealed space used to house your pet's items such as a leash, tags or toy. A picture or design may be etched into the top of the keepsake urn or slid into the top. Renderings may also be applied.

Regardless of the choice of urn you decide on, your pet's memory can be cherished and respected in many ways. Ensuring you choose a company with a good reputation and one that will suit your specific needs will allow you to honor the memory of your loved one in this difficult time.
