| Pet Cremation Memorial Box When the time comes and you lose a beloved pet, it's hard to think of these things. I hope this will give someone else comfort. Reading some RIP's last night, I was reminded of how heartbroken I was when a precious pet died a few years ago. My boss, bless his heart, was so kind--he told me that the vet's office could have her cremated and the ashes put in a box for me to keep. I did that. It's plastic, the size of shoe box, and I have that in a lovely floral box. I have a provision in my Will that her box is to be placed in my casket with me, in the same place where she always slept with me. I believe she is waiting for me in heaven--with my mom. But, it's a comfort to me to know we'll also rest together. Now I have other pets I love dearly. I don't like to think of the next time--but when that time comes, which is inevitable, I'll probably have her cremated and placed in another memorial box. (It may be very crowded in my casket.)

| Oh my! It's something that none of want to think about. I know I have 3 boxes. All 3 are different. One wooden, 2 others are gold metal and their names engraved on the top. My son has told me on various occassions that he hopes he doesn't go before I do, cause I'll put him in one of those little boxes and place him next to Cleo, Melinda and Rusty...... and any of my other dogs that go to rainbow bridge. My uncle had a had a poodle that was the love of his life. Sadly to say my uncle passed before Inky. When Inky passed, the family had him cremated, late at night we went to my uncle's grave site, pulled back a small section of grass, dug down deep enough and placed Inky with my uncle.
