Pet Cremation Ash Keepsake
Dogs, cats, horses, birds and more pets have a way of becoming something more than just an animal that is around the house. They are not only our companions they are also a huge part of our family. Having a pet is not only fun or fulfilling- but has been found that their addition into our lives even have great health benefits... like helping to ward off allergies (Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology -- shows that children exposed early on to animals tend to develop stronger immune systems overall), they also provide a great means for improving your socialization skills and opens doors for communication with others.
Many studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institute of Health (NIH) have proven that pet owners exhibit decreased blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride levels -- all of which can ultimately minimize their risk for having a heart attack down the road.
And of course we need not forget how they have the most uncanny way of lifting our spirits no matter what is going on in our lives their unconditional love can fight off feelings of loneliness by providing companionship, which can boost our overall mood and even bring us feelings of joy and happiness. Which is also found to help reduce or at least control their our overall stress levels.
There are so many ways that our sweet fur babies make our lives better that is is almost impossible to list them all. Daily they are here for us through thick and thin expecting so very little in return for their unconditional love.

They leave a paw print on our heart and in our lives that will never be forgotten.

Saving the memory of a special cat named "Whiskers" was a true honor. This Pandora compatible keepsake bead was created using cremation ash of Whiskers and included a small lock of her fur. The paw prints were added to represent the impression she made on her human familys lives and heart.
Her mother has written a beautiful article about her beloved Whiskers and I was touched to read her sweet review of this keepsake. It meant so much to me to see the kind words and to read all about the life and memories that Whiskers has provided. She will be missed and loved by many...
I hope that you too will stop at TaylorsLife and read her story. It is a beautiful testimony of the love shared with her sweet fur baby.
I created this cremation ash keepsake for "Whiskers" mom before I re-branded to "More than Memories Keepsakes". I had been trying to come up with the perfect name fitting for my work. I was even getting suggestions from most everyone I knew. As I gave Whiskers bead to her mom, she was telling me how much she loved it and sharing the moments she had with her sweet Whiskes that I realized that these keepsakes will forever be more than a keepsake, they are More than Memories...they are a way of honoring the moments in our lives. It was this keepsake that helped to re-name Crafty Compliments to More than Memories Keepsake....I can not help but feel it was Whiskers way of once again leaving her paw-print on our human world.
Let me know the story of your sweet fur baby in the comments below!
