I too want to see photos of the foxes!

I kinda like the idea if doing this with birds, but I could never have Ruby stuffed, way too creepy! I really like the idea of having her ashes pressed into a gemstone though, then I could always have her with me. Not that I have to worry about they for a long, long time; she's only just 8months old and has a lot if living left to do yet!

Nothing against taxidermy but I draw the line at pets with a big fat no and in horror.

Good grief! I watched the first 20 seconds of that! Big fat no-no! Especially not a pet.

That I could handle, that's sweet. Probably cost a fortune

I can't watch it. I don't think I could do it. I don't think I could ever find closure doing something like that.

Din't watch it but the answer from me is No !

prettylola · #31 01-05-2013, 02:29 PM

As much as I love my pets I think that answer would be no. I would have a hard time seeing that daily. But I would go and have them cremated and then keep the ashes.

I had lots of pets as a child and we Burris them all in my garden. Having to deal with the death side and particularly finding them was the main thing putting me off getting dogs. I have dealt with a lot of pet deaths but a dog is different. I wouldn't stuff my dogs. The whole idea creeps me out. I do kind of think it would be disrespectful, like having the dog as an ornament or possession and not letting it rest. I do kind of like the idea of having the fur or ashes made into a diamond though so they can be with you. Though I'm not totally sure how that differs from what I just said. I was around before my mum and dad buried my childhood chi so i was able to cut a bit of her fur off and keep it and i feel that really helped. I just hope I don't have to deal with it any time soon.
