Preparing Your Pets Urn

It's never easy to say goodbye to a pet. However, it's even harder to say goodbye when you have no idea how you're going to bury them or what you're supposed to do with their ashes once they pass away. We don't want that for you, which is why we've put together this guide on how best to prepare your pets urn and keep the memory of your beloved companion alive forever.

Using a Funeral Home

Once you have decided to use a funeral home, it's time to find one. You can do this by searching online or asking around for recommendations from friends and family.

• What happens at a funeral home? The process at a funeral home is similar to what happens in the hospital when you sign your pet over for cremation or burial. You'll meet with an employee who will ask for basic information about your pet and their death, as well as whether there are any special instructions or wishes related to their final arrangements. For example, if you want specific music played during the service (and assuming it's not too loud!), feel free to let them know! They may also ask questions about where you would like them buried—if they're buried on the grounds of the facility itself rather than elsewhere in town—as well as which urn style appeals most strongly based on what type of stone work they offer inside their facilities right now (if any).

Once everyone has agreed on all necessary details including fees paid upfront so nothing comes back later unexpected costs due later down road should there ever be one! Then all parties involved will sign documents confirming these details before picking out an appropriate container which acts as both memorials containing ashes but also keeps them safe from elements such - rain water damage etc...

Urn Selection

Choosing an urn for your pet is not as easy as it may seem. There are so many factors to consider, from size and style to material and price. We've outlined the key components you should look for as well as some helpful tips on choosing the right one for your pet.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when selecting an urn:

• What kind of container do you want? Urns come in all shapes and sizes, so try not to get too hung up on your initial vision. For example, if you're looking at traditional wooden urns but would prefer something more contemporary or modern-looking, don't be afraid to pick one that doesn't match your original idea exactly!

• How much money do I have? Don't go over budget—it's understandable if this process is difficult for you emotionally and financially (and sometimes both). If possible, see if anyone else can help cover some costs related with choosing a burial container—this could include friends or family members who want their pets interred alongside yours.

How to Prepare Your Pet's Ashes

The first thing you'll want to do is mix your pet's ashes with the provided cremation ash powder. We recommend using a metal spoon or other utensil that can withstand heat and moisture, as this will help prevent any damage to your urn.

Once you've mixed everything together, use the funnel provided to pour the resulting mixture into the urn of your choice. If you're worried about getting ash on either side of the urn (and trust us, we know how messy it can be), feel free to use a cloth or towel while pouring it in. Now just check over every inch of it and make sure everything looks good!

Placing Ashes in the Urn.

If your pet is cremated and you are using a traditional urn to hold their ashes, there are several different ways to place the ashes inside.

• Some people like to pour their pet's ashes into a ceramic or glass container and then place it inside the urn. This may be easier if you have small amounts of ash.

• Others choose to use an insert that fits snugly into their selected urn and has a space specifically reserved for holding ashes.

• If you don't want to use an insert at all, some people will simply pour the remains onto loose bedding in their chosen vessel (such as sand) or bury them in soil or potting mix within the vessel itself (in which case they might also add flowers).

You can also purchase memorial boxes that contain small compartments where each compartment can hold one cubic inch of material (about 5 drams). These types of containers usually come with an outer box as well as an inner liner with removable dividers; this way, each compartment can be filled individually by adding about 5 drams worth of whatever substance is being used—for example, soil from a garden bed where your pet used to play outdoors together with some soil from his favourite spot on earth!

Make your pet's urn personal.

Even though your pet is gone, you can still make their urn personal. Keep in mind that they were a part of your family, so it's important to make sure the urn honours them. If you have children who love their pet, they may be very interested in helping choose an urn. Another option is to have several people help decide on an urn together—but make sure everyone tries to remember that this is about honouring their furry friend and not just making a decision based on what looks cool or expensive.

One of the best ways to keep the memory alive after putting your pet to rest is by creating something like a memorial stone or garden bench that commemorates all their years with you and how much joy they brought into your life (see our guide for more ideas).

As you prepare your pet's urn, consider how you want to honour them. There are many ways to do that, from choosing a beautiful urn to placing photos or other mementos inside. Whatever you decide, make sure it’s something that will remind you of the love and joy they brought into your life.
