A few pets have been buried in the back yard and over the years, the markers got moved or knocked over and mowed or blown away during hurricane type weather. I guess we should have planted a small tree but they're all in the same area.....3 cats and more recently, my last two pets, doggies who lived to be 17 and 19. We got a cross at Walmart that could be stuck in the ground and it's marking the spot now.
The last one, we had euthanized and a little casket was provided so we could bring her home and bury her next to her playmate of so many years.
Thank you for the links up there. I most definitely will get one of those stones soon and let it be for all the pets.

I thought they were neat and that way if you moved and buried them you can have them with you always and something to remember them by! They will always be in your heart but something like that i find great, with the personalized, really touches me!
This made me think of when we were discussing if we wanted to keep this house or move someday...and then it dawned on us...the pets! We can't move and leave them. They're buried in the backyard. I know some have no choice but to move....but we do...at least for now. But yes the urns and taking them with you wherever you go is a great idea.
Even for those who don't even have ashes, the urn can just be a memorial to the pet(s). Or a marker could be placed in the yard even if they're not buried there....a place just for a memorial. I even have a memorial in a pet cemetary in a game I play and often go sit there and "visit" with them while I'm doing work on the computer. They were my computer buddies when alive....still are.
