THE RAINBOW BRIDGE
Ways to Remember Your Pet
3
The poem, Rainbow Bridge, describes lush
meadows and hills where your pet can play after
their passing until the day you are reunited.
4
While this poem has become a favorite among
loving pet parents who are dealing with the loss
of their cherished companion there are a few
other ways to find comfort during this difficult
time.
5
Here are a few unique ways to remember your pet
that will help you honor their loyal
companionship while keeping their memory strong.
6
CREATE A BOOKSHELF MEMORIAL
7
Place your favorite pet mementos front and center
by dedicating a shelf to them.
8
If you chose pet cremation, then this shelf is
the perfect place to display the urn.
9
Keepsake boxes can also be filled with pet tags,
collars and favorite toys to provide you with a
place to visit when you want to remember the good
times you shared.
10
PET FOOD PLANTER
11
After your pet has passed, you can create a
living garden that is as bright as their wagging
tail.
12
Simply fill your pets food and water dishes with
soil and some cheerful flower blooms.
13
Then, place it near your pets favorite resting
spot or right by your front door as a reminder of
how they always greeted you with love.
14
PET PAW PRINT
15
Having a print of your pets paw is a lovely
keepsake that can be used throughout your home.
16
Try framing the print along with a copy of
Rainbow Bridge, and hang it on your wall.
Alternatively, you could turn the paw print
into a stepping stone for your outdoor garden.
17
Many families also use the paw print to create
holiday ornaments that can be hung with care each
year.
18
COLLAR BRACELET
19
Pet collars and leashes can be trimmed down to
create an attractive bracelet. For an extra
special touch, consider adding their tag to the
middle.
20
Then, you can keep your pets memory close at
hand no matter where you are during each day.
21
DECORATE THEIR RESTING PLACE
22
Headstones, grave markers and urns provide
mourning pet owners with a physical reminder of
their cherished animal.
23
Add flowers, toys and trinkets to your pets
space that will serve as a gentle reminder that
they are in a better place.
24
PORTRAITS AND PHOTO ALBUMS
25
Your pet was likely the most adorable animal you
ever saw. Show off their beauty even after they
are gone by compiling a photo album either with a
traditional book or online.
26
Alternatively, you could have a portrait painted
using a favorite photo that can then be hung from
the wall like the other members of your family.
27
DONATE TO AN ANIMAL SHELTER
28
Giving to others in your pets memory is a great
way to manage your loss. Contact the local
shelters in your area and ask about any specific
needs.
29
Dog food, bedding and cash donations are very
appreciated, and you can volunteer to help out if
you have some extra time.
30
CREATE A YEARLY RITUAL
31
Your memories of your pet will last a lifetime,
and honoring them on their birthday or the day of
their passing each year is a great way to keep
their memory alive.
32
Try lighting a candle or going for a walk in
their favorite park. Find something that
connects the two of you and do it each year.
33
When a pet passes, it can be hard to handle the
loss.
34
Although you will never forget the way they
curled up on your lap or greeted you at the door,
it is important to find ways to cherish their
memory.
35
Whether you choose to showcase their mementos or
create a private space to reminisce, your pet
will always be remembered.
