When someone passes away be it is a human or a beloved pet a void is created in our heart. Pets are not just animals, they are members of our family. The biggest decision we make after their departure is of their funeral
“They are not with us today, but the love they gave us will always remain.”
In this post, I will give tell you in detail what things should be kept in mind while choosing a pet cremation service.
What is a pet funeral?
When a pet leaves this world, it is very important to give it a respectful farewell. Just like we perform funeral rites for humans, similarly nowadays these facilities are available for pets as well.
Pet Cremation means turning the dead body into ashes through fire (or machine-controlled temperature), so that we can remember it with respect. Now, how to find a pet cremation service provider near you, for this read the guide below :-
You first need to know what pet cremation services are available in your city or nearby. How to find?
- Search on Google: “pet cremation service near me” or “pet cremation [city name]”
- Ask pet hospitals or veterinary clinics
- Contact animal shelters or NGOs
Tip :-
If you are in a small town and such a service is not available, sometimes mobile pet cremation vans also come from nearby big cities.
Communal vs Individual Pet Cremation
When you contact a service provider, they may give you two options :-
Communal Cremation: This involves the cremation of several pets at once. Usually, you do not get the ashes back. It is Cheape but emotionally difficult to keep personal connection and memories with your pet.
Individual Cremation :- Your pet is cremated separately and their ashes are given to you in a beautiful urn. It provides personal touch, gives you your pet’s ashes and helps in memories preservation. Also it is slightly expensive.
Prices For Pet Cremation :-
Different services have different prices. Some factors that determine the price are :-
- Size of pet (small dog or large cat)
- Individual or communal cremation
- Is urn included or not
- Is there a pickup/drop-off service?
Usual prices:
Small pets (e.g. rabbit, guinea pig): 25$ – 50$
Medium pets (e.g. cats, small dogs): 50$ – &0$
Large dogs (Labrador, GS): 100$ – 150$
Why is it important to choose a reliable Pet cremation service?
When we are emotionally very sad, we often make the wrong choice in haste. So make sure to check these things before taking a service :-
- Is the company registered?
- Do they have client reviews?
- Do they guarantee the ashes?
- Do they provide photos or videos of the funeral (if you want)?
