Cat memorials – The perfect way to say goodbye


For anyone who has been the custodian of a cat, the joy of having a feline friend is boundless. Most would agree that although a cat can appear independent, nevertheless they are intensely loyal companions, with their own unique characteristics. They often have an uncanny sense of when you are going out and will be waiting ready for your homecoming.  Having shared a life together, the pain of loss with their passing can be overwhelming, with the depth of sadness that a family member has departed.



Those who have never owned a pet may not appreciate the strength of the emotional support and the bond between you, leaving you feeling isolated with your grief. We each grieve in our own way and find different ways in which to cope, but many find that cat memorials are the perfect way to say goodbye when the time comes. Pets Remembered appreciate how certain rituals can help with the grieving process, in the same way in which we show our love and respect for the loss of any friend or family member. You will know how best to honour your feline companion, but inviting others to join you in a memorial gathering is often found to be comforting.



Within the Pets Remembered range of beautiful hand-crafted cat memorials, personalised tributes can be added to pet headstones, grave markers or plaques.
You may choose to lay your feline friend to rest in a tranquil spot where they have spent many happy hours, with a carefully chosen memorial such as the 'at peace' cat casket marking their final resting place. Your animal companion's cremains can be scattered beneath a newly planted rose bush, tree sapling or where flowers will bloom each Springtime. This can be marked with a pet memorial plaque inscribed with a personal message or a favourite picture of your cat.



In whichever way you feel is right to memorialise your beloved pet companion, this will be a lasting testimony to the many happy hours you have spent together and a recognition that they will always share a place in your heart.

When the life of a beloved pet comes to an end and they are no longer physically with us, the feeling of grief can be overwhelming. As pet owners ourselves, at Pets Remembered we can relate to the strength of the bond which has been forged between you and how bleak the future may seem without their presence. During this time of mourning it's also important to focus on the good times you have spent together and the comfort that precious memories can bring.   Adjusting to a new routine can be challenging, especially if previous habits have centred around social activities with fellow pet owners, such as daily walks or time shared together with your faithful furry companions. Following the loss of a pet, you may feel excluded at a time when you are most in need of understanding and support.  Memorialising a pet provides the opportunity for friends and other members of your family to join in a celebration of your pet's life and to express their condolences in their...

How a Pet Memorial Can Help With The Loss of a Cherished Pet

We should never underestimate how much love there is for a pet or how great the sadness is when their life comes to an end. These faithful animal companions who have given unconditional love, will have formed an intense bond with their owners often over many years and been considered as a member of the family. This close companionship may well have been a support during challenging times as well as a source of joy and comfort.   So how can our we overcome the loss of a cherished pet?
