Recommended questions that should be asked:
For the private cremation, is my pet the only pet in the cremation unit? How does the provider prove that?
How long before my pet is picked up by the cremation facility?
Where is the crematory located?
How long before I receive my pet's cremains (shipped or hand delivered)?
What is the cost for cremation, private versus partitioned versus communal?
Pet Cremation Process at Paris Pet Crematory:
The cremation process begins with the pet owner's decision to have their pet cremated. All paperwork is to be filled out and should have clear and precise wording as to the exact type of cremation.
The three major types of pet cremation are communal, partitioned and private.
Communal cremation is the process of multiple pets being cremated together without any separation of ashes (also known as cremains). The cremains are spread in our on-site memorial garden.
Partitioned cremation is the process where a small amount of pets are placed in the cremation unit and are divided by "partitions". The location of the pets in the unit are documented and the cremains removed according to the documentation. This service is only offered to the vet hospitals that we service. Cremains are then returned to the owner.
Private cremation is the process where just one pet is placed in the cremation unit. Cremains are then returned to the owner.
Once the decision of what type of cremation service you would like for your pet is made, the Cremation Form is then filled out with your and your pet's information.
If you are at an animal hospital, your pet is then placed in a cadaver bag with the Cremation Form attached. Your pet would then be placed in cold storage until transportation to the crematorium.
When our pick up and delivery personnel arrive at the animal hospital we will make sure all the information on the Cremation Form is legible and corresponding.
Once at Paris Pet Crematory the cremation will begin.
