In a few days, I'm going to get a nice wooden box with Holly's ashes in it
and a plate with her paw print and name on it.
I have Bootsy's ashes in an ugly maroon-colored tin can with black paw prints on it and scotch tape over the top. I guess my former vet used a much cheaper cremation service.

each. It really does brink back good memories to just catch a glance of them occasionally, and be reminded of their lives with us.
You could always find a better box or lovely china urn and put Bootsy's ashes in it.
You can get nicely engraved little plaques online, too. I've done that for my furbabies when I didn't like
the box their ashes came in. Something to think about when you feel ready. Sending love and light.
You are most definitely not out of line for suggesting I could find a better container for Bootsy's ashes. As a matter of fact, I did look at boxes and urns online for several months after she died. The problem is I have never looked at her ashes and I never will. I just can't look at them. It's almost a phobia. Maybe one of these days, I will look into it again and buy a nicer container as long as I could get someone else to move the ashes into it. It's something to consider anyway.
Thank you again, HeartsCanHope.
