Yes, we understand how difficult this time can be. We provide resources and support to help you through your grief. Our team is here to listen and offer comfort, ensuring you don’t have to navigate this process alone.

You are welcome to bring your pet to our facility. We encourage you to take your time and say goodbye in your own way. Our team will handle everything with respect and care once you have completed this important farewell.

First, let us extend our deepest condolences. Losing a pet is never easy and now you have to figure out what to do.

If your pet has passed away at home, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our pet bereavement counselors will help walk you through the next steps based on your wishes and give you options with how to proceed.

Until decisions and preparations can be made, place your pet in the coldest part of your home. Put plastic down and then newspaper or a blanket to place your pet upon. Cover them with another towel or blanket.

It is always your choice who handles the final disposition of your pet. If your vet uses our services, they will organize the arrangements for us to pick up your pet for cremation and memorial services. If your veterinarian does not use our services, you can inform your vet that you will be using Pet Meadow and contact us to finalize those arrangements.

Yes. Your pet belongs to you and you have the right to take your pet home with you.

Cremation is the process of reducing matter by exposing it to intense heat. The body is reduced to bone. The bone fragments are processed in a machine to break them down into what are called “ashes” or more accurately, cremated remains. They are placed in a sealed, stronghold cremation bag and then into an urn.

No.

No. Embalming is a process that temporarily preserves a body and is not necessary for cremation. We do not embalm pets.

An urn is a receptacle especially made to hold cremated remains. Urns are made of wood, metal, ceramic, and even paper for burial.

Yes. We can place small, special mementos with your pet while they are cremated. Items made of natural materials are welcome, and small amounts of non-natural materials can be added. Some examples include a collar, a cotton blanket, a tennis ball, flowers, drawings from your children, poems, or treats.

Yes. We are able to save and return surgical implants such as screws and plates. Some very small pins, such as those used for cats and miniature dogs, may not survive cremation intact.

We ensure the integrity of every cremation service by using state of the art facilities, equipment, and a highly innovative tracking system. 

Please check with your local and state munipality and governing bodies. Regulations vary widely in different areas, and we advise you to contact your local authorities before scattering cremated remains.

By definition and individual cremation can be achieved by placing multiple pets into a single chamber, separating them by trays, bricks, or space, and documenting their location in the chamber. The pets are cremated simultaneously and removed one at a time. 

Pet Meadow does not perform individual cremations, only truly private cremations. With our state of the art pet crematory facilities, each pet has their own private chamber and is cremated by themselves. We perform private cremation in order to ensure that our clients receive their pet and only their pet’s cremated remains back.
