Selecting The Right Urns For Pets

By Casandra Newton


The passing of a loved animal friend is a difficult time and choosing the perfect urns for pets that have gone onto the next life can be healing. Cremation is much more common today, as many places disallow burial. Maintaining the ashes in a beautiful keepsake urn gives you something special to honor him or her with.

Usually, the animal crematorium provides a temporary urn. This is usually a tin box or something similar. You can have a private urn delivered to the place of cremation. Simply alert the vet's office or staff at the crematorium that you prefer to have an urn brought right to them.

Your departed was very loved and needs the perfect urn to rest in. The process of choosing is actually a time of reflection on his or her personality. Finding the types of things that your departed would have liked can help you place things back into perspective. Your connection with him or her does not have to be gone just because their body is. It is said that the animal companions of the world wait for their beloved humans on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.

You can have the urn delivered to your home. This typically means that you will need to transfer the contents of the temporary container. There are those who can take on a fully clinical perspective and have no problems touching or seeing the remains of their departed. The body is truly just a shell and the spiritual connection that you had with your companion is still right there, as that was made from energy.

You might not be very capable of putting things into a clinical perspective and have a high level of sensitivity to the idea of cremation. This is fine. A friend or even the vet can do this task for you. It is usually better to take both containers to the vet's office and ask someone there to take this little job out of your sight. Choosing the vet's office over a friend is recommended just in case your friend happens to drop or spill the contents. At the vet's office, this job is done in a flash with no risk of being uncomfortable in your home.

You can select from a wide variety of final urns for a beloved's resting place. Ceramic, wood, and even those that will transfer a photo can be found, along with many others. There is a lot of love and care that goes into the creation of each individual piece. When you find exactly what you are looking for, you will know.

Not everyone intends for their departed one to stay in an urn for a long period of time. Beaches, forests, and other natural settings make great places to scatter ashes. You may also consider planting a tree in the yard and give all whom have moved ahead a final place to nourish the earth.

Selecting the best urns for pets allows you to take a little space and get more comfortable with the loss, the final burial, or taking a place of honor in your home. Humans and animals collide together with such a great love and respect that the loss is difficult at best. These creatures are there for their humans in a beautiful and loving way that keeps your heart attached to theirs.
