Pet Necklace: Honoring Beloved Pets with Memorial Jewelry

Remembrance Of A Beloved Pet

Pets offer unconditional love, stay loyal and give you precious moments of joy to cherish and are true companions. Losing a pet can be a very difficult phase because of the role they play in a pet owner’s lives. It is understandable that you would wish to honor your beloved pet’s memory in some form or the other. You could, for instance, opt for memorial jewelry to sustain the connection you had with your precious pet. 

Memorial Jewelry And Its Significance

The tradition of using locks of hair of a beloved encased in a locket has been around since as far back as the Victorian era or perhaps even earlier. It’s the same with using ashes of a departed loved one, be it a person or a pet. Ashes serve as a tangible and physical reminder of someone who’s no longer with you, kept close to your heart at all times. While many use urns to preserve ashes of a beloved pet, they are not portable and you may not be able to have access to them at all times. On the other hand, you can wear your memorial jewelry anytime anywhere. There are different forms of memorial jewelry, including bracelets, rings, charms and one of the most widely used – pet necklace with a pendant. 

Necklace As A Tribute To A Dear Pet

One of the ways in which you can keep the connection with your beloved pet alive is by wearing a pet necklace, which is a chain with a pendant containing a small amount of your pet’s ashes. It is a convenient and meaningful way of constantly remembering your much loved pet. 

Why Choose A Pet Necklace 

Sustaining the connection: A necklace is a physical reminder that your beloved pet is close to your heart. It helps you retain the connection and remember the good times you shared with your beloved pet. 

Wearable reminder: There are different kinds of keepsakes that you can use to remember and cherish the bond you shared with your pet but a pet necklace is wearable and available with you all the time. This is especially true if you have to constantly travel and aren’t able to access other keepsakes or urns which you can’t carry with you while travelling.

Compact and secure: A pet necklace is a compact kind of keepsake, not bulky and easy to carry and wear. It is also a secure way of preserving your loved pet’s ashes because the compartment containing the same is designed with care. 

Closure and healing: Like other cremation jewelry, a pet necklace helps you go through the different stages of grief. By wearing a tangible keepsake, you may be able to find the much-needed closure and heal from the loss. 

What To Keep In Mind While Picking A Pet Necklace

• Material: A pet necklace with a pendant can come in different types of material but stainless steel is one of the most commonly used materials. It is long lasting and doesn’t get impacted by weather conditions. Typically, the stainless steel pendant that holds your pet’s ashes comes with a finish, either 4K gold-plated (bronze) or stainless (pewter).
• Compartment that holds ashes: Check the compartment in the pendant that holds your beloved pet’s ashes. Make sure it has been designed to avoid spillage and secures the ashes. The compartment is usually located at the back of the pendant and is sealed with a threaded closure.
• Design: Pet necklace pendants come in many designs and shapes - from cylindrical to round, oval or heart-shaped. Choose one that matches your personal style and honors the memory of your dear pet the most. Also, many pendants come with designs such as paw prints, hooves, feathers, whiskers or anything else that reminds you of your pet embedded on them. You could also get pendants with messages, names or dates to remember your pet by. 
• Reflection of personality: When you pick a pet necklace, make sure you align it with your personal style and overall personality. That way, you feel comfortable wearing it at all times and it doesn’t feel out of place. You can pair your necklace with any outfit and what’s more, the ashes are stored in a discreet manner so you don’t have to worry about any spillage as well.
