Maybe most appropriate for the SPHYNX breed?

Lol. Not heard of that one. There is a company that will turn your pets ashes in to a DIAMOND though. Wow!

Re: Pet mummification?

Ooooh how creepy - not something I would look to do but it must appeal to a small minority of people or there wouldn't be a trade for it in the USA

You can have your 'loved one' turned into a diamond too I'm giving that serious consideration for my DH
Wouldn't want to have a pet mummified though and certainly not stuffed - horrible

Re: Pet mummification?

What an odd thing to want to do. I can't imagine it being particularly popular. To me the body is just a vessel and once the animal is dead then it isn't really them anymore so I don't even get ashes back or anything like that, just bury in the garden or have them cremated.



Also mummies (particularly human ones) are a particular phobia of mine so I can't think of anything worse. I would have nightmares.
