We had no idea what Aquamation was or that it would be used on Weeble. We just had her sent to whichever company Metropolitan Animal Specialty Hospital used. Other companies asked that we request a paw print for an additional cost, and told us when our pet was picked up. In this case, we weren't asked if we wanted a print or told when Weeble was picked up. I was a little nervous.
Suddenly, Weeble appeared at my door. Her paw print was included and looked a million times better than the ones we paid extra for. Her name was spelled out in cursive, and the print was attached to a beautiful multi-jewel chain. Weeble's ashes were NOTICEABLY cleaner and beautifully packaged in an olive ring box with a heart paw print. on top. We bought separate urns before, but might hold off this time because this box is really chic and perfect for now.
Now we were REALLY curious about this Peaceful Pets Aquamation company, because let's be honest, I had just run in to an emergency hospital saying my cat is either dead or dying, I wasn't really paying attention after that. Luckily Susan and Jerry included a hand signed card. First of all, aquamation is really amazing for a lot of reasons. Environmentally it sounds great and part of me is comforted by the fact that it seems much more peaceful for my pet. It sounds far less traumatic and dramatic.
Part of the card says they work with a variety of rescue groups and charities. We do rescue work as well (that's how we got Weeble) and I already highly recommended Peaceful Pets Aquamation to one of the gals in charge of the rescue...for that day no one wants to deal with).
