Granite Pet Memorials
By Max Bellamy
Though everyone knows death exists and that it will
strike one day, dealing with the death of a loved one is
a traumatic task. Perhaps, all that someone can do on
the death of a loved one is to express grief and allow
time to heal the pain.
The death of a pet is no different from the death of a
human, even though there are quite a few people who
think that it is not worth mourning a pet. Pet-lovers
are sentimental and need some closure after the passing
of a cherished four-legged companion. The law in most
states permits only the cremation of animals and so
pet-lovers have no opportunity to visit a pet's resting
place. Hence, a pet memorial is the most appropriate way
to pay homage to a departed pet.
A pet memorial can be as unique as a bereaved pet-lover
would want it to be. Most people opt for a simple plaque
to commemorate the bond of love that they shared with
their pets. A granite pet memorial consists of engraved
plaques that can be laid over the pet's last refuge or
be fitted in the pet-lover's home.
Granite monuments, designed especially for pets are
available on the Internet. They are engraved with the
pet's name and important dates, at no extra cost. Some
granite plaque manufacturers also offer to engrave
salutary remarks, quotes and epitaphs for the pet. A
wonderful feature, available through some sellers, is
laser carving, which enables the pet-lover to engrave
the pet's picture on to the granite.
Granite plaques come in a range of colors and very often
the visibility of the engraving depends on the color.
For instance, darker granite is the best suited for
laser engravings whereas a lighter one is suited for
verbal etchings.
Granite pet memorials are everlasting and can literally
immortalize the pet in stone. Most people choose to lay
it in a place they can visit often or the pet's favorite
location.
