If you want to remember a pet who has passed away, then you are not alone. So many people lose pets every year, but there are ways for you to keep them in your memory forever. If you want to find out more, then take a look below.

Get some Jewellery Made

One creative and very special way for you to remember your pet would be for you to get a dainty necklace made. You can have an image of a dog’s nose, or you can even have someone make jewellery using your pet’s ashes.

Things like this can help you to truly remember them and you would be surprised at how much it could mean to you when times are tough, and you are in mourning. You can even get your dog’s name engraved onto the necklace if you want, so keep that in mind.

Memory Quilt

Another great thing that you can do would be for you to create a memory quilt. This is the best way for you to remember your pet and you can do so by taking their favourite toys and then stitching them together. If you do not have any toys from your dog or if you want to make something special to remind you of them in a different way, then why not check out Woof Blankets?

Plant a Tree

Why not plant a tree in your garden to remember your pet? The best thing about this is that it will help you to remember the life that your pet has lived, and it also gives you a day to day reminder of the memories that they have given you.

If they had a favourite spot in the garden or if they had a place that they love, then why not choose this spot?  It’s a great way for you to symbolise their life and it also gives you the chance to remember your pet every year when the tree blossoms.

Donate Something

It can be very difficult for you to even think about adopting a pet after you have just lost yours, but you have to remember that donating something to the animal shelter is a brilliant way for you to give joy to another animal.

Many pets in animal shelters do not have their own toys, so if you can give them something like this, then it will make their day. You never know, a dog may steal your heart and you may decide to go ahead with the adoption process for them. This is a brilliant way for you to make sure that you are giving them the care that they need.

So there are many ways that you can remember your pet, and if you follow this guide, you will find it easier than ever to give yourself something to look back upon. Remembering the times you had with your pet is important, so take the time to treasure the good times, as opposed to remembering the bad.
