‼️ Summer heat can be dangerous—especially for our pets! Even on mild days, the temperature inside a parked car can rise rapidly to life-threatening levels.

Here’s why never leaving pets in cars is so important:

🚗 Temperatures inside a car can climb over 100°F in just minutes—even with windows cracked.
🥵 Pets can suffer from heatstroke, organ failure, or worse in a very short time.
🏡 If you're running errands, leave pets at home where it's cool and safe.
❤️ Protecting our furry friends means planning ahead and staying vigilant.

"Bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. They are often discredited as being good pets because they don't ‘do anything'—ask any rabbit owner and watch how they laugh!"

☀️ Summer is here, and as temperatures rise, it's our job to ensure our furry friends stay healthy and safe!

Here are some essential tips for heat safety:

💦 Always provide fresh, clean water to prevent dehydration.
🐾 Walk pets during cooler parts of the day to protect their paws from hot asphalt.
🥵 Never leave pets in a parked car! Cracked windows don't always prevent internal temperatures from rising.
👀 Recognize signs of overheating, like excessive panting, drooling, or lethargy.
🏡 Ensure pets have access to shaded or air-conditioned spaces.

Simple. Elegant. Timeless.

Our hand-carved sheesham wood urn is our most popular memorial choice—for good reason. With a delicate vine and flower inlay, it offers a warm and dignified way to honor a beloved pet’s memory.

Featuring an intricate carved design, bottom access enclosure, and an optional gold foil name label for personalization, our hand-carved sheesham's are crafted with care to help you say goodbye with love. 🤎
