Why Choose Pet Cremation?
While burying pets at home may seem like a sentimental option, practical considerations and regulations often make it impractical. Pet cremation offers a dignified alternative, providing a lasting tribute to your beloved companion.
How Does Pet Cremation Work?
Remains are inspected for metal objects, which are removed before cremation.
Remains are incinerated at approximately 1,800 degrees (Fahrenheit)
The process takes about two hours, but it varies depending on the size of the animal.
Large pieces that do not incinerate, such as bones, are pulverized into dust.
In the case of private cremations, the ashes are returned to the pet parents.
Understanding Communal vs. Private Cremation
Communal cremations offer an affordable option where pets are respectfully cremated together, with the ashes scattered afterward. Private cremations, on the other hand, involve individual cremation for a single pet, with the ashes returned to the family. While private cremation is a more personalized option, it comes at a higher cost.
