Reasons To Participate In Pet Cremation Pre-Planning

By William Russell


Cremation is a popular choice for many pet owners when their dear pet passes away. Most cities have pet cremation facilities, as does Maryland. These companies will take care of all of the little details, such as picking up the pet's remains, ensuring that cremation is completed, and then returning the ashes to the owner in a box or urn. Owners may know that a pet is going to die, such as if the animal is sick or ill. Pet cremation pre-planning helps owners make certain decisions before the pet dies, so that they are not faced with difficult decisions during that stressful time.

Planning in advance how to handle your pet's remains relieves you and your family of making decisions at a very vulnerable time. This is important, because you do not want to make financial decisions when you are upset. Also, you might be tempted to spend much more than you should.

You will be able to pick items and services that you want to include way ahead of time. You may choose a simple box, a polished urn, a memorial market, or another type of keepsake. The company you choose should have these things and if you choose beforehand, they are sure to have what you want or can order it for you.

Rates are often locked in when purchasing these items in advance, which could save a ton of money in light of inflation rates. The earlier you plan, the more money you will save. Also, you can sometimes purchase niches in a pet cemetery in advance or even pay the money off well before your pet passes away.

In some places, the remains of both the pet and their owner can be interred in the same or adjacent niches. Ask the company if this is available. Some pet owners love the idea of being placed next to their companion animal for eternity.

Most companies will offer special memorial keepsakes, including paw prints and nose prints. These prints can be made into jewelry or mounted on plaques. It is important for the company to know this ahead of time so that the print can be created before the pet is cremated.

A memorial service is something that pet owners also like. This could include the scattering of your pet's ashes. This can be arranged by the company. They may print cards for you with the pet's name, picture, and a special poem. The company could also provide silk or real flowers, scatter tubes, and books about grieving for children and adults. Special music can be chosen that can help soothe the minds of those present. This all can be done in advance.

Make sure you make many memories with your pet while she or he is alive. This is useful for planning memorial services and also helps grieving loved ones remember their pet fondly. Many pets live long and full lives, truly loved by their human companions. Make those memories while they are here. After they are gone, having preplanned their cremation and memorial, you will be able to grieve without the undue stress of lingering decisions. Your pet and you deserve no less.
