Pet Memorial Pendants
How can you keep your Pet after it died close to you?Anyone who has ever loved a pet knows how valuable that pet can be in our lives. Sigmund Freud, famous neurologist and founder of psychoanalysis, once said, "Time spent with cats is never wasted". This is saying a lot coming from one of the largest critiques of a behavior, and while Mr. Freud narrowed that scope down to cats, we feel all pet owners agree that the same sentiment can apply to any pet, regardless of species. Our pets not only become part of our lives and families, but actually influence our lives in a positive manner. Even the smallest hamster can be a great pet, especially for small children, as it teaches them to be responsible and even empathetic towards others. With that said, any pet who has created their niche in our lives is certainly missed when they must, unfortunately, leave. While the grief that ensues is often very profound, many are surprised to find that celebrating the pet's life, rather than mourning their loss, can pay just respect to everything that the pet gave in their lifetime, and even be a great comfort. With that said, a beautiful pet memorial pendant can certainly help create a small tribute to the pet that can help honor their memory. These wonderful pendants feature a number of elegant designs, and some of which feature a pet theme, to help tie the piece to their memory. While some pieces do feature a pet theme, some feature an elegant design instead, which helps create a gentle reminder of the loving memories the pet left. What sets these wonderful pieces apart from standard jewelry is that these pendants hold a small remembrance within, such as a small lock of fur, earth from a treasured area, or even a small portion of cremation ashes. While these are items are all commonly used to fill the pendants, any small amount of a similar memento can be placed within. The pendants feature a discrete opening that is either worked into the back of the pendant, or under the bail, which helps the memorial reflect the happier moments shared with the pet. These wonderful pendants are available in a number of precious metals, such as sterling silver and vermeil, as well as 14k white or yellow gold, and even stainless steel. Many families take advantage of the engraving option, to add the perfect final touch to the jewelry. The loss of a pet can leave one in a state of grieving, which can certainly seem arduous. While that is so, our pets spent their entire lives bring us joy, and comfort, and it only makes sense then, that their memory should do the same. While we cannot hold our pets in our arms, they will always remain in our hearts and memories. A wonderful pet memorial pendant can help hold a small remembrance of the pet close to our hearts, and the happy memories that reside within. |
