📕 📖 ✨ We stumbled across this beautiful book by Nancy Tillman recently and thought the messages portrayed in her story would be comforting to those grieving their beloved pet.

We have a handful of these in stock for those after a little more comfort - they would also make lovely gifts if you have a friend/family member that has endured a recent loss. 🤍

✨ Navigating your first Christmas without your beloved pet ✨

The upcoming holidays can be a difficult, often bittersweet time when you are missing your beloved pet. Here are some tips to help you navigate this tough time:

❤️ Share their memory
Talk about your pet and your favourite moments together at upcoming gatherings. It’s okay to laugh, cry, and reminisce.

🎄Create a Tribute
Hang an ornament with their photo, light a candle in their honour, or set up a small memorial in your home.

🤗 Lean on Support
Surround yourself with understanding friends and family that acknowledge your grief.

🍓 Focus on self-care
Allow yourself to feel all the emotions and do things that fill your cup. Don’t put pressure on yourself to feel “festive” if you’re not there yet.

🐶 🐱 Give love to other pets
If you or other family and friends have pets, give them some attention - animals are the best form of therapy. They actually release hormones that can help reduce feelings of sadness and depression.

✨ Grief and joy can co-exist. It’s okay to celebrate the season while cherishing your pet’s memory. 🧡

We have had a Male Entire Black Labrador found in the Maheno, Main Road area. Unfortunately he has no microchip to help us identify his owner. We are hoping to reunite this cute fella with his owners. If you think this is your dog please contact the 𝗩𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗢𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘂, 311 Thames Street, Oamaru - Phone 03 434 5666

A couple of the recent paw castings we have done 🐾 one of these will be mounted on timber and the other will be alongside a nose casting in a shadow box.

We recently had a client want their dogs paw print engraved on the top of a wooden urn which also came out beautifully 😍

If you have an idea of something you’d like and we haven’t done it before we will try our best to accommodate, so always feel free to ask.

I have recently done some training with Julie so that we can offer castings as a part of our pet cremation business.

Julie is a great teacher and we got on so well the time flew by!

I 100% recommend getting Julie to do your castings and or training in castings. She is professional, empathetic, kind caring and fun.

Thanks so much Julie!
