It's hard, losing a beloved pet. Our pets are our furkids. We love them just like our (non-furry) kids. We had a dog cremated and his little wooden box is surrounded by angel figurines. So, you're not alone, in your morbidity ;)
That's not creepy. I'm sorry for your loss :(
I think that's a sweet memorial, not creepy.
don't feel bad. The two cats we've lost in the past year and a half are on display in our house too, their ashes and framed 5x7s of each of them. I'm really sorry for your loss.
For a second I thought Shawn was stuffed! This is not creepy.
Not creepy at all. Pets are like children, and losing them is always hard. I thin its wonderful you can always remember him.
we have a photo up of our Kayla (dog) who passed and our girls are always looking at it and talking about her.
I think its beautiful. To have that kind of love for a pet is amazing. I'd have it no other way :)
The picture is great, the ashes would creep me out a little. So sorry for your loss!
I think losing a pet is very hard. Sorry for your loss
What a beautiful picture of Shawn! And a great way to remember her, not at all creepy!
It is not creepy and weird. I think it's a lovely memorial. ((HUGS))
Kas
I think it's sweet!
oh no, this is totally normal! i have a lock of my dead dogs hair taped to my dream board. lol any way you can keep their memory close that feels right to you, is right!!!
It is beautiful! And when our dog Chase died when I was a teen, we took his ashes and spread them on the path in the woods he'd always come running out of when we'd drive in.
I don't think it is creepy, it is a nice way to remember him.
Awww, that's actually an awesome idea...such a pretty kitty. Not creepy at all!
This is always hardest during the holidays. So sorry for your loss.
Awww it is really hard losing a pet. Sorry! :)
