When a pet dies, the loss is real and it deserves marking. Afterstone's pet range is made for exactly that: personalised memorials and remembrance pieces for a dog, cat, horse, rabbit or any animal that shared your life. Every piece is made in Britain from natural materials, engraved or handmade with their name, so you have something to keep, to place, or to return to.

The collection covers several things you might want.

1. Something to hold, like an ash-into-stone memorial pebble that keeps a little of their ashes close.
2. Something to place, like an engraved memorial stone or an oak remembrance plaque for a garden, a grave or a favourite spot.
3. Something for the everyday places they belonged, like an engraved wooden plaque for a stable door, a kennel, or above where the leads and collars hang, so their name stays where they always were.
4. A hand-thrown pottery urn to keep their ashes at home.

You do not have to decide everything at once. Some people mark the place their pet's ashes are scattered with an engraved stone. Some keep a pebble made with their ashes on a windowsill. Some hang a wooden plaque where they will see it every day. There is no right way, only what feels right to you.

Every piece is engraved with whatever words and icons you choose, so it suits any animal and any words, from a name and dates to something only the two of you would understand.
