Honoring Your Beloved Pet's Journey: Understanding Pet Aquamation (Full Circle Pet Aquamation)
A Gentle Farewell: The Purpose of Pet Aquamation
For many pet owners, the bond with their furry companions transcends the typical definition of "pet." Dogs, cats, and other animals become cherished members of the family, bringing unconditional love and joy into our lives. When faced with the inevitable loss of a cherished pet, the question of aftercare can be a difficult one. Traditional cremation, while a common choice, may not resonate with everyone.
This is where pet aquamation, also known as alkaline hydrolysis, emerges as a respectful and environmentally conscious alternative.
What is Pet Aquamation?
Pet aquamation utilizes a gentle, water-based process to accelerate natural decomposition. The pet's body is placed in a specialized chamber containing a solution of water and a natural alkaline salt compound. This solution, combined with gentle heat, facilitates the breakdown of organic material into its basic components.
The resulting sterile remains, known as "aquamation ash" or "memorial powder," are primarily composed of calcium phosphate, similar to cremated ashes. This fine powder can be returned to you in an urn for safekeeping or scattered in a cherished location.
The Benefits of Choosing Pet Aquamation
So, what sets pet aquamation apart from traditional cremation? Consider these key benefits:
A Gentler Process
Unlike traditional cremation which uses high temperatures, pet aquamation employs a much lower temperature and a water-based environment. This method provides a more dignified and peaceful farewell for your pet.
Environmentally Conscious Choice
Traditionally, cremation relies on fossil fuels, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Pet aquamation, on the other hand, utilizes significantly less energy and produces no harmful emissions. This eco-friendly approach resonates with pet owners who are conscious of their environmental impact.
Suitable for All Pets
Pet aquamation is a safe and effective option for pets of all sizes, from tiny birds to large dogs.
