1. Some tips on choosing the most suitable coffin for your pet
Pets add color to our life and become a part of the family. However, like every
mortal being your pet too will die, as most of them have a short life. So you
should prepare yourself for the death of your favorite and cute lap dog or the
ferocious bulldog as its age reaches around 9, 10 or 11 years. If you have
decided to give a burial to your pet after its death then you should order a pet
coffin earlier. However, bizarre it may sound this will surely help you to control
your emotions and also to minimize the cost and hassle of burying the pet. But
you must measure the length of your pet dog or other animal and order a pet
coffin of slightly larger size.
Factory made versus handmade
If you can afford then a factory made one is the best. It is available in a variety
of colors, features, protection level and comfort. These can be customized
according to your preferences. However, these are costly ones, especially if you
order them just one or two days in advance. Otherwise, you can go for a
handmade one. This will surely reflect more love and affection, but you will
have limited choice in terms of color, comfort and protection.
Biodegradable versus non biodegradable
If you want the casket as well as the mortal remains of your pet to assimilate
with the soil over time then you should go for a wooden casket, customized or
handmade. However, if you want the mortal remains to remain intact for a long
time to come then you should go for plastic pet coffins for sale with good
protection against moisture and seepage of water with the help of rubber
gaskets. Such coffins are made of polystyrene, a type of waterproof material,
which offers very good protection against moisture.
Before taking the body to the cemetery you must make sure that the city
permits its citizens to bury their pets within city limits. While digging the grave,
in the backyard or the pet cemetery, you must make it sufficiently deep. The
grave should be at least 3 feet deep. If you want to protect the mortal remains
then wrap the pet in a plastic sheet and place it within the coffin. This will
prevent incursion of moisture even if some of it is able to get into the coffin.
There are standard pet coffins for sale with bedding and upholstery, deluxe
coffins with bedding, crowned burial vault, farewell kit etc.
