Family pets are just that important and make our lives that much

richer and more meaningful. They stick with us through thick and thin and show us loyalty and friendship that is unconditional. A beautiful cremation memorial can be created indoors or outdoors depending on what type of urn you should choose to go with.

There are many options for creating a memorial to your pet. Creating a cremation memorial with a one of a kind urn as the centerpiece is a truly wonderful way to keep the memories of that beloved pet alive for all time. Hand made art urns are a great addition to any memorial display and can be kept on a mantle or in a special place to constantly remind you of the special time you shared with you wonderful family pet.

Glass cremation urns, metal funeral urns, ceramic art urns and pet urns are all available to keep the cremated remains of that special animal close to you. Decorative urns made especially for that wonderful family pet will be perfect for showing the world how much your sweet animal meant to you. Dog urns or cat urns can be a custom made cremation urn that reflects the personality of that special dog or cat that brought so much joy and love to your life.

If you want to create a memorial shrine outdoors, it is best to use a durable material for the one of kind hand made funeral urn. Selecting a metal cremation urn or a stone funeral urn is ideal for the outdoors, because it provides a durable material that is strong and will hold up against the elements and the weather. Indoor cremation memorials offer a little more flexibility in what type of material you choose to go with.

Having a custom made funeral urn crafted by a truly expert artisan is the best way to go about this process. This way, you can have the art urn created to your specifications and ensure that the vessel that holds your special family dog or beloved family cat will be a true memorial to that special friend. Finding an artisan who specializes in these types of hand made urns can be a challenge, but these days it is not as hard as it once was.

There are now companies that specialize in creating unique urns for any occasion. Cremation urns are available in many places, but finding some folks who truly care about honoring the memory of your pet as much as you do is rare. Look closely and choose wisely to make sure that you are dealing with a reputable dealer who understands the importance of what they are creating and the honor it is to do this sacred duty.

Pet Ashes Into Pottery

Friday, March 13th, 2009

Pet ashes into pottery? it’s not first the question every grieving pet-owner thinks about after losing their pet.

Once you’ve consoled the kids by telling them Spot’s gone to a better place, there’s always the issue of what to do with the body.

yorkie urns for pet ashes,
Now Brooklet-based actor and quirky entrepreneur Joss McWilliam has come along with a novel solution: Turn your pet into a piece of pottery.

"My mate Mark Warren actually came up with the idea," Joss said yesterday. "He’s a ceramic artist and all-round creative guy, and he decided to experiment using cremated ashes as glazing on pottery."

For $220, Joss’ company Ash Glaze Ceramics will glaze an urn with some of your pet’s ashes, then seal the rest inside.

The process works surprisingly well, creating an interesting organic texture.

A veteran actor, Joss is best known for his role in the 1984 film The Coolangatta Kid and has appeared in many a classic Australian television drama including Blue Heelers, Water Rats, Pacific Drive and the Adventures of Skippy.

These days he does mostly stage acting and is currently performing in Hamlet with the Queensland Theatre Company, appropriately enough as a grave digger.

But with the downturn in Australian theatre and television production, he also has been forced to look to other sources of income.

"It’s just a matter of me trying to make a buck," he said. "Last time I went to Centrelink I told them I’d rather eat dirt than go back on the dole."

pet ashes jewelry,pet ashes pendantWhile some people find the idea of turning pets into art weird, Joss reckons William Shakespeare got it right in Hamlet when he wrote: "In all the world, there’s nothing, neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so."

Joss likes the idea of having a permanent, physical reminder of a pet, made from its essence, and is even keen to put his own pup, Eddie, on the mantelpiece eventually.

However, even Joss has his limits: "Mark’s experimented with human ashes as well, but I find that really disturbing."

Pet Ashes how they arrive for your pet urn

Most people who decide to have their pet cremated do so for several reasons- they don’t have a permanent home where they can place their pet in their own final resting place.

Where can I buy Urns For Pet Ashes?

Now our family pet has passed away, and the kids are adamant that they want to have her cremated as well so that they can keep the ashes nearby so Peaches will always be with us. 

Paw prints and other keepsakes

Keeping a pet’s ashes or ordering one of those garden stones that look like grave markers just aren’t my style. I do have all the old license and name tags from dogs I’ve lost through the years.

Art from Ashes

Companion Bracelet Art from Ashes was the first company I ever featured in my Pet Memorial category. Now, almost two years later, they are still the only company I hav fef e there. 

When Placing Your Pet’s Ashes in an Urn

When you are putting your pet’s ashes in the urn, it is a good time to focus on closure. The way to keep this experience positive is to create a ritual around the act. -Gather up photos, toys, blankets, etc.

Pet Cremation Keepsake Jewlery

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Abraham Lincoln said, "I care not for a man’s religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it." Love between the pet and the owner has been immortalized by many a legends. Many novels described the love and trust that an animal and the owner shares. So did many movies. Why even you or me would have had a pet at some point of time in our lives and loved our association with it. It is probably one of the purest relationships to experience for anybody.

We talk to our pets and they listen. They give us unconditional love and await our attention. They amuse us and make us feel good about ourselves. As Samuel Butler famously said, "The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too."

After a hard day’s work, the moment your dog runs to you when you are home wipes off the day’s fatigue. There are innumerable incidents of where a dog saved his owner or a cat woke up her owner when there was a fire in the house. Do pets have psychic power? They do. They can understand when you are standing at the door or when you are depressed. Pets fill in that void in our lives that no human relationship can fulfill.
cremation and pet cremation jewelleryMedical research says that seniors who own dogs visit a doctor less than who do not. It is a proven fact that pet owners have lower blood pressure or that the companionship of a pet helps families and people cope with serious illness. Playing with your pet burns up to 250 calories an hour. There are dogs that assist blind people in their daily lives and there are dogs that help police force in their mission to protect people. George Salpiatro, Connecticut lost his vision. He received two-year old Karl, a German shepherd as his assistant dog. As Salpiatro says, "I like to tell people, on January 2, 1995, my opportunity to be equal to others came with four legs and a tail that wags!"

But there would probably be fewer people who would own a pet because of the above mentioned reasons. People who own pets simply love their pets and any and every benefit that they get because of the association is just a byproduct. And it is true that once a pet lover always a pet lover.

When a pet passes on we feel a huge loss that seems incomprehensible. It gets difficult to console the children in the family. Just as a loss of a family member pains us, losing a pet how much ever inevitable it might be seems difficult to cope with. We look for ways to immortalize our lost pet. It is important that we treat the memory of the pet with dignity. That is probably the first step that we can take in our grieving process.
