this was posted awhile back on another thread.......Freeze Dried Pets I believe was the post title, if you want to do a search on YT to find that thread........

Also, in that thread, someone posted about this place.

My family and I are not big fans of cremation.....we just aren't for some reason. AND, we tend to move around alot so to bury our beloved Mojo is not an option.......

So, this pet-gems (even though it is cremation) will probably be what we do.....that way, we can keep him in a special way and with us all the time!

That place is cool... I don't really care for cremation either...don't know why. But we don't move around alot, but that is so different - I like the idea.

I remember them talking about this years ago. I thought is was real expensive and doesn't it take a couple of years to get it done? I always cremate our babies. I remember when eBay had a stuffed yorkie for sale. ICK Who would sell their poor dead, stuffed pup.

I don't think so! That would be wayyyy too scary!!!!!
I think I'll cremate mine. Does anybody know how much they charge for that?

We had our last dog Tesla cremated (we had her for 14.5 years...R.I.P) and I believe we paid around $100.00.

Now that the Catholic church allows cremation, I'm getting cremated (also because that is what my grandparents are having done, and they are my "role models" when it comes to religion).Since I'm getting cremated, so will my furbabies. All of my pets have been cremated (excluding fish, hamsters), therefore I will continue to do so. I wouldn't want to have a freeze-dried dead animal. I couldn't imagine looking at it and knowing it's dead, not able to run around and be happy. I think that would make it harder and harder each day, just looking at a body like that.

We have had and will continue to have our furkids cremated and kept at home with us until it's our turn, At that time our children have instructions to combine all of our ash's (pets included) and then scatter them to the four wind's in a place of our choosing with a simple God's Speed.
