📘 Preparing Your Pet for Cremation: What Families Should Know
When the time comes to say goodbye, many families aren’t sure what steps to take next. At Pethaven, we want the process to feel as calm and comforting as possible. Here are a few simple ways to prepare your pet for cremation:
🐾 Spend a quiet moment with them
If you’re able, take a few minutes to sit with your pet, hold them, or say a few words. This can bring peace and closure during a very emotional time.
🐾 Gather any personal items you want included
Some families choose to send a small blanket, collar, or note with their pet. This is optional and completely up to you.
🐾 Decide on your memorial choice
Whether you’re selecting a private cremation or a communal one, knowing your preference ahead of time can bring clarity and comfort.
🐾 Contact your vet or Pethaven directly
We’ll guide you through each step, answer any questions, and ensure your pet is transported and cared for with dignity and respect.
At Pethaven, your pet is treated like family. We’re here to support you with compassion, understanding, and gentle guidance during this difficult moment. ❤️
