Pet Memorial Gifts That Keep a Companion Close

A good memorial piece lives where you already spend your time, on a shelf you pass each day or somewhere you can carry it.

Three ways to keep a pet close

There is no right way to remember a pet. These are three simple places to begin, and you can take your time choosing.

Somewhere to lookA figurine or portrait for a shelf or wall.

Something to lightA candle holder with a simulated flame.

Something to wearA necklace or ring you can carry with you.

A figurine for a quiet shelf

A clay figurine is a small likeness you can see from every side. The small size is about 5 cm and the large is about 8 cm. A lying-down pose can suit a pet who loved a long nap, and sitting suits an alert one.

A candle holder with no open flame

Our memorial candle holder is shaped like your pet and paired with an LED tealight, so there is no live flame. You can choose a flame that gently sways, or a fixed flame that is easy to wipe clean.

A portrait for the wall

Our hand-drawn portrait is an original illustration, drawn as a head portrait or a full body. Choose a digital file if you would like to print it yourself or share it with family, or add a framed print.

Something to wear

Some people would rather keep a reminder with them through the day. A clay pendant sits close, a pin can go on a favorite coat, and a ring stays in sight on your hand. Our jewelry guide compares them.

When only older photos remain

You may only have a few photos, and that is fine to start with. These steps can help.

Choose the clearest photo you have, even if it is an older one.
Look through family phones and shared albums for another angle.
Add an extra photo if it shows markings the first one misses.

If a photo is not clear enough to work from, we will contact you before we begin. Our photo guide has more detail.

Together in one portrait

A hand-drawn portrait can show up to three pets in the same picture, and you send one photo for each. That means a pet who has passed can appear beside another pet from your home, even when they were never photographed together.

Giving one to a friend who lost a pet

A gift like this works best when it feels like an offer of remembrance and not a surprise that catches someone off guard.

Consider asking a close family member whether the time feels right.
Use a photo they have already shared with you.
Choose something quiet, such as a figurine or portrait, if you do not know their taste.
