In memory of
deceased small animals
No animal is too small to win our hearts.
A beloved pet that has passed away leaves a huge void – whether it was a
rooster, a rabbit or a hamster. Pigs, hedgehogs and parrots can
also
be beloved pets and leave a deep sense of loss when they die.
With a
gemstone or a pearl imbued with the soul of the animal, made
from its ashes or fur, your little companion
becomes a
lasting memory – a memento of small pets.
When your spirit animal suddenly goes missing
The hamster cage is empty; the hedgehog is no longer in the garden. You look forward to your parrot’s chattering, but there is only silence. Only the last few fine feathers on the floor remind you of the lively conversations you had with him.
No feeding, no stroking, no cuddles. Somehow your life feels empty – because these little moments are missing. The ones that carried you through your day-to-day life.
Perhaps you’re also hearing hurtful comments from others – such as: ‘It was just a hamster! It’s not the end of the world. Don’t be such a wimp. Are you seriously thinking of having a memorial made for your hamster?’
But no. It wasn’t just any pet. It was your soulmate. Your little companion. And the one closest to your heart. You’re allowed to grieve – no matter what anyone else says.
Tears open the door to your memories of deceased small pets
Tears and grief are door-openers. They open your heart to memories – and others to greater compassion. For it is only by experiencing grief that you can come to terms with your feelings.
Whether you choose a pet burial or cremation – your beloved pet deserves a dignified farewell. And perhaps also a keepsake that will last forever.
When you’re ready, there are ways you can carry your companion with you forever – right close to your heart or on your arm. As a gemstone made from your pet’s fur. Or as jewellery made from your pet’s ashes. Simply as a memento of a beloved pet who has passed away – forever.
Any animal can become a cherished keepsake—regardless of its size.
Whether it is a rabbit, turtle, bird, snake, or any other beloved companion, a personalized memorial can be created from cremation ashes or hair/fur.
Depending on your wishes, you can choose a personalized sapphire or ruby created from your pet's ashes or hair, or a meaningful piece of memorial jewelry that keeps your faithful companion close to your heart forever.

There are several options for saying goodbye to a small pet. You may choose burial in a pet cemetery or cremation at a pet crematorium. In some regions, burial on your own property may also be permitted under certain conditions.
To qualify for burial on private property, the animal must not have been kept as livestock, must not have been suspected of carrying a notifiable disease, and must not have been euthanized by a veterinarian. As regulations vary by country and region, we recommend checking the applicable local laws before making arrangements.
