The first hours
If your pet has just died, there is no need to hurry. These are the things that help in the first few hours.
Stay with them, stroke them, say whatever you want to say. Children can be there too, if they would like to.
Lay them on their side on a blanket or towel, somewhere cool in the house. If you can, gently tuck their legs towards the body.
Tell us your address, roughly how much they weigh and whether you would like an individual or communal cremation. We will agree a time that suits you.
Our partner practices can keep them in a cold room for up to 48 hours. We collect them from there.
Not sure what to choose? Call us and we will talk you through the options calmly, with no pressure to decide.
000 0000 0000Cremation
Both are dignified. The difference is whether the ashes come back to you.
from €120
Your pet is cremated on their own. A numbered metal tag stays with them from collection to urn, so the ashes you receive are theirs alone.
from €60
Several pets are cremated together. Their ashes cannot be separated, so we scatter them in our garden of remembrance just outside town.
Some providers hand back “a few ashes” after a communal cremation. We don’t, because they would not be your pet’s alone. See the prices by weight.
Collection and farewell
We arrive in a vehicle fitted out for animals, with a soft cover and a stretcher. We carry your pet with care, and you decide whether to come along with us.
At our premises on Example Lane there is a small farewell room: a sofa, a soft bed for your pet and a window onto the garden. Stay as long as you need. Most families stay for around half an hour.
Keepsakes
We make them here while your pet is in our care. You can also choose them later, when you collect the ashes.
A fired clay disc with their name and a ribbon for hanging.
€25
Hand glazed, in three colours and two sizes.
from €45
Beech or walnut, with an engraved plate.
from €65
For the collar, a favourite toy, a photo and a lock of fur.
