Burial or Cremation? Pet Urns May be the Answer for You

It’s one of the most difficult things a pet owner has to face – the death of their faithful, furry friend. We all dread the day that our pet passes, but when the time comes, we need to make the decision of how to deal with the remains. While burial has been the traditional choice for centuries, cremation is becoming more popular these days for many reasons. Why would you choose to keep your pet’s ashes in a pet urn rather than burying it?

The grief process when a pet passes is very similar, and often just as difficult, as when a human family member or friend dies. We need to be able to grieve our pet and have a way to preserve its memory. Having its ashes in a pet urn in the house provides a way to spend time with him or her whenever we need to feel close to him or spend a few moments remembering the fun and companionship we had. 

Keeping your pet’s ashes in a special pet urns displayed prominently in your home will allow you to stay close to it and will help you get through the healing process of the loss.

When you choose to bury your pet in the backyard, as people have been doing for centuries, visiting the grave takes more time and effort and you may find that you don’t go visit as often as you would like. When you have a pet urn on your pet memorial.

Another problem with backyard burials is that you may not always live in the house you are in right now. How will you feel when you can’t go visit the grave anymore because it is in someone else’s yard?
