We just had to put our Jack Russell Terrier down on Friday. Her ashes will be spread over the flower garden. Nothing too wierd.
Doggie ping!
photos, videos, a few fur samples, a nice urn with colors that kind of match.
for now. i get them back in the end, Thank You Lord.
I had a friend that wanted to keep her kitteh's PAW to carry around with her (like a lucky rabbit's foot). 'Course, she also thought about having her deceased dad's torso stuffed by a taxidermist so he could sit in his favorite chair forever! She was bummed that no one would actually DO that for her.
We had some pretty cool dolphins made out of Bahamian mahogany from a local artist on one of our trips. Stella proceeded to TEETH on them - so I guess they will be our souvenirs of her! ;O)
I actually like the nose print idea.
I’m thinking of making my own.
The silicone mold material can be bought at Michaels and I could use a simple plaster mold technique.
In fact, I could just use polymer clay instead of metal and make it black and shiny...:)
Sheesh! They left out freeze-drying! A friend of ours has her cat on her desk, curled up on her favorite pillow. Sometimes, she;ll take her to the office, put her & the pillow on on the desk.
It seems to be popular.
All I have is claw clippings from my beloved Shepherd, 1 of the last times I cut her nails. Hair gets lost too easily. I still have 18-year-old nails in a box.
Otherwise, by far what I’d do is get a portrait. I already made some myself as is, pencil drawings. Currently hangs in my son’s bathroom.
2. Rock Out With Their Record
Whether you named your pet after a musician or How Much Is That Doggie In The Window makes you think of your beloved critter, sometimes music is one of the best ways to remember your lost loved one. Thats why And Vinyl presses ashes into vinyl records for you to listen to forever after. You can either use your favorite song or have the company write a track specifically for you and your pet. The company will even paint a portrait of your pet using its ashes and include that as the albums cover art.
Didn't Jim Morrison get his start this way?
That takes the game of "I've got your nose" to a whole new level.
#7 is just creepy
I had my lab Pepper cremated and decided I did not want ashes as I wouldn’t know if they were really her ashes, but they made a foot print of her on a plaque with her name and date of death. The foot print in plaster of paris even had the small amount of dirt that dogs collect from their paws when outside. I just had surgery and my daughter took her and witnessed it was my girls footprint...I didn’t know that would be done and I love that plaque...
A Cowboy lost his two favorite horses, a Stallion and a Brood Mare, on the same day. He took them to the local taxidermist to have them stuffed.
“And mounted?” asked the taxidermist.
“No, no...” said the cowboy, “...standing side by side would look more respectable.”
