Make plans for your pet's cremated ashes before you die
San Antonio area pet owners have options when it comes to what will happen with their pets' cremated ashes upon their death, including having the ashes buried with them.I am a single female with no dependents. I cremated one of my many critters, Divine, a dog, in 2016. What happens to those remains once I cross the rainbow bridge? I don't think they can be buried with me; hopefully, I am wrong.
I have relatives, but I hesitate to give them this responsibility. My brother is in the same situation, although I know he would take Divine's ashes as I would take his cat Scooby's ashes. I am sure there are others in this same predicament. What can I do?One option for a beloved pet's ashes is to have the urn buried in a pet cemetery before you die.Creating a chain of custody for a pet's urn can be challenging.
"There are no laws prohibiting you from including your pet's cremated remains in your burial; it just depends on the funeral director," says Mitzi Chafetz, funeral director for Eloise Woods Natural Burial Park, a natural cemetery for people and pets just north of Austin. “Funeral homes will have different policies about whether they allow this, so people need to call around to find out.
Unbroken Circle, a natural green cemetery about 25 miles south of San Antonio in Atascosa, and Eloise Woods Natural Burial Park both operate burial services for people and pets, and will allow you to bury your pet's cremated remains with you. You also may choose to bury the urn in a separate plot in their pet cemeteries.
Unbroken Circle also has seen instances when a person dies before their pets and the pets end up at the city shelter.
