What happens next?

After saying your final farewell to your much loved pet, your options are either home burial or cremation. Sophie can transport your pet directly to your local crematorium, or you may transport them yourself.

Sophie recommends discussing cremation directly with your local crematorium so they can go through your options.

Below is some further information regarding aftercare, local crematoria and some keepsakes and memorial ideas.

Aftercare

After the home visit Sophie can transport your pet to your local crematorium.

Some people find keepsakes such as memorial artwork or jewellery using your pet’s ashes particularly helpful for coping with grief. Please see the keepsakes tabs for some ideas. Crematoria can also provide other services such as ink paw prints.

Please see below links to grief resources.
