Not meant to be an urn but more something that captures the essence of your pet’s personality, these keepsakes will hold a tiny amount of cremains. Set one on your desk or nightstand and see if you don’t soon smile through your tears at the memory they evoke.

Recently added to the urns carried by CCPC, these are whimsical keepsakes that are made in limited editions and can carry not only a small amount of your pet’s cremains or fur but also are valued for their collectability. Each urn is made of crushed marble mixed using an age old formula originated in England. The urns are carved with bas-relief designs and incorporate realistic as well as fanciful characteristics of our animal companions.

Forever and Ever

Felinicity

A lidded cat themed cachepot, created in the English Cotswolds by Ann Richmond. Orange tabbies, tuxedos, maine coons, grey Persians, and seal point Siamese are among the bas-relief cats prominently featured on the lid and around the entire urn. The stretching and napping cats will snugly hold your beloved feline’s cremains.

Cirque du Furet, Mangrove’s Eden and The Masquerade

For people who love exceptional pets we offer urns for ferrets, lizards and birds.

Cirque du Furet features over a dozen playful ferrets doing what they do best – performing! Carved in the USA by Angie Caradonna and produced overseas. Angie will donate a portion of her artist royalty to Support Our Shelter (S.O.S.), a non-profit charity that provides monetary assistance to ferret shelters throughout the U.S.

Mangrove’s Eden, created in the USA by Angie Caradonna, depicts domestic and tropical birds from nearly every continent on the planet. Angie chose the name for her Jardinia because the Mangrove tree is a natural habitat and nesting place for many of the featured birds. Produced overseas. Approximate height 4 inches.

The Masquerade features 17 species of reptiles, including chameleons, turtles, geckos, iguanas, and even a Gila Monster. Created in the English Cotswolds by Ann Richmond and produced overseas. Approximate height 4 inches.
