Haga una donación

Consider making a donation in your pet’s name to a local shelter, veterinary school, or charity. Helping other pets in need is a fulfilling way to pass on the joy that your furball brought to your life. If you’re unsure of where to start, ask your veterinary team for suggestions.

Get a little creative

Create some art based on your pet. This could be a painting, poem, collage, or any other number of ideas. Invite your friends and family to join in on the experience.

Start a scrapbook

Put together a book of memories of your pet. Fill it with photos, their favorite things, and stories.

Commission a keepsake item

If art isn’t your forte, leave the work to someone else. There are a number of artists and companies around the world who create meaningful keepsake items like necklaces, portraits, ornaments, and more. Your veterinary team may be able to help you directly with this process.
