What did you do with the dead pets?

I have thought about this, and it's always a hard subject for me to think about. I've never had a pet die, luckily, and I hope I still have a long way to go until that happens. The problem is, I don't live in a house so I don't have a yard to bury them in, and where I live there's no such things as pet cemeteries and pet cremations (and I mean the whole country, not just close to me). If they have to end their life being euthanized, or end their lives differently in the vets office, I would probably leave them to the vet. Otherwise, I don't know what I would do. I hope that my cats still have long lives in front of them, and that the situation will be better when they do meet their end. I would prefer to have them cremated, I see it as a nicer tradition than being buried.

When my dog Max died in 2007, we had him cremated. It wasn't cheap but it seemed like the most dignified way we can say farewell to our lost companion. The cremation also came with a plaster paw print that they take of the dog, some clippings of his hair, and a poem that your dog "wrote" telling you that he's in a better place. Honestly I could do without the hair and poem but I appreciated the paw print a lot.

I know that death is a part of life both in the human and animal world but it is still hard to deal with and sad. Cremation will be what we will do when the time comes for our Brogan. I pray to the good Lord that is very very far away though. I actually saw a friend post on facebook that they buried their pet on their family plot in the cemetery. I know that they did not get permission to do it so I don't see how they got away with that but they did it.

We buried all three of our dogs next to each other in our back yard. We had plastic tubs with lids that we placed them in with their favorite blanket and toys and some pictures and other sentimental things. Then we made some tomb stones for each of them and planted some flowers by their graves along with some solar lights to light them up at night.

My friend's vet does something kind of cool. They take a paw print and a hair sample and frame it along with a photo of the pet and a poem honoring them. They provide that long with an urn of their ashes.

I'm not real sure why your asking this question. If you loved your pet you would burry it.
