How to Choose the Right Pet Urn

Whether you had a long time with them or they were taken too soon, losing a pet is difficult.  You then have to make the decision about what to do with their remains. If you decide to have your pet cremated there are many different options when it comes to what to do with their ashes. We’re going to go through some of the choices available at Dignity and how to choose the right urn for pet ashes.

Choosing An Urn For Pet Ashes
Selecting an Urn or casket is a very personal choice, we’ve listed some of our more popular options below but if you need any help deciding, our team is available to talk to you about them.
Before you look through the options available, think about what you want from the urn. If you want to display it in your home, opt for something you will enjoy looking at. If you’d like to create a natural tribute, choose one of the eco-friendly choices.

Classic Pet Caskets
If you are looking for something traditional, a wooden casket may be the option for you. These caskets are made from solid wood and available in a range of sizes. You can choose from light or dark wood, with the option to add end rings for a look similar to a traditional coffin.

We can also custom engrave a metal plate with your message which can be fixed to the top or side of the casket. For a more personal finish, you can add a laser engraved plate that can feature a photograph of your pet.


Scatter And Burial Options

For those wanting to scatter or bury their pet’s ashes, we offer several options. One of our most popular choices is the Scatter Tube, which is adorned with a peaceful bluebell woodland scene. The ashes are loose inside the tube, which can be either buried or used to scatter the ashes in a special spot.

Metal Urns
Our metal urns are simple and elegant. The Polished Metal Urn has a traditional look and can be personalised with an engraved or laser-engraved plate. It’s also available in a range of sizes.
If you want something a bit less formal, we have Urns available in a tall or rounded option. These urns are made from brass and feature a paw print design with a screw-on lid. You can also choose a Teardrop Paw Print Urn in black, brown, or white colours.

Eco-friendly Options
If you want to give your pet an eco-friendly send-off, we offer a range of products, including the Scatter Tube and Pouch mentioned above.

The Bio Urn is a round biodegradable vessel with a paw print design. Available in Salt (white) or Sand (brown) colours, these urns are made entirely from natural materials. They can be buried in the ground to return your pet’s ashes to the earth, alternatively, they are soluble for use in water.

For those who want a lasting reminder of their pet, we recommend the Bio Tree Urn. This beautiful bright green capsule allows you to enter your pet’s ashes in your garden or in a planter along with a seed that will eventually grow a tree.

Pet Specific Urns
Some people may prefer an option that provides an instant reminder of their pet, so we offer a range of pet-specific urns.

For dog lovers, we have the beautiful brass dog urns and Dog Caskets available. These urns have a hidden compartment to store your dog’s ashes. You can add an engraved tag that’s placed around the dog’s neck on a simple ribbon. See our range of dog-specific urns here.

Cat owners can choose from a range of feline-inspired urns, including a peaceful sleeping cat available in wood or metal. For a stylish look, the Cat Sculpture Urn is available in black, brown, or white. See the full range of cat-specific urns online here.

These are just some of the casket and urns for pet ashes options we offer, we have many more styles available on our website. You can order these over the phone or online at Urns UK, for delivery anywhere in the UK.
