What do you do when you're not supposed to be on the couch? Try to blend in with the blanket. But, what if that fails? Pretend you have no legs 🍞

Our traditional paw prints have had a bit of an upgrade as well, we will now be sending them home in these little card frames.

Not much of a change, but just that little extra step we try and take here at FurEver After.

The frame will make it easier to display them if you don't have one on hand, as well as protect the edges from damage.

Please note: these card frames are only currently available for A6 sized paper, we are still sourcing a card frame for bigger sizes. If you wish to purchase these for any A6 prints we've done in the past, please contact us.

We would love to show you all this new style of memorial paw prints available.

A beautiful foiled gold based iridescent print centred in a matching 6x6 frame.

Please note: as long as we have a paw print from your pet, these can be created at any time.

Michelle's concentration face while making a feather display for one of our lovely clients to memorialise their beautiful little bird 🌈💚💛

Whether it's feather displays, fur clippings, ink prints or any other way you ask us to memorialise your pets, we are dedicated to putting in the same amount of love and care for every one.

In loving memory of our cherished companions, here are the names of the pets we've had the honour of holding services for this past July. Each one held a special place in their family's heart, and their memories will forever be treasured. ❤️✨️

We are always grateful to have been a part of their journey and to have helped celebrate their lives here at FurEver After.

May their families find comfort in the memories they left behind.

🐾🌈

THE NEWS YOU'VE ALL BEEN HOPING FOR IS HERE!

Firstly, FurEver After is here to stay! And so is Michelle!

Secondly, we are thrilled to announce that Sam and her loyal companion, Reaper, a beautiful 6-year-old White Swiss Shepherd, have officially joined FurEver After Pet Memorials as partners. Sam brings a wealth of experience and passion to our team, and we’re excited about the new energy and ideas she will bring to our business.

Reaper was named long before Sam and Michelle’s paths crossed, and given the nature of our business, it’s a funny coincidence that his name aligns so closely with our mission to honour and memorialise beloved pets. While the name “Reaper” might conjure certain images, it’s important to remember that reapers are often seen as guides who help souls transition peacefully—a fitting symbol for the care and respect we provide to the pets and families we serve.

Reaper will be joining the team alongside our smoochy office cat, Daemon, and we’re sure they’ll both bring plenty of warmth and comfort to everyone they meet.

Going forward, Sam will be working closely with Michelle to continue providing the compassionate and personalised services that our community has come to trust. We are deeply committed to keeping FurEver After Pet Memorials open and thriving, and we believe this partnership marks the beginning of a bright new chapter for our business.

Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this exciting journey together.

Warm regards,
The FurEver After Pet Memorials Team
Michelle, Sam, Daemon & Reaper

Welcome to FurEver After, where our fur family are forever in our hearts. Offering premium, personalised pet memorial & private pet cremation services for all pets, big and small. Melton, Victoria

As a child, I dreamed of becoming a vet. As I grew up and learned about the realities of life - and, inevitably, trauma and death - I thankfully had the self-awareness to realise I would not be able to cope as a vet due to my C-PTSD. Had I pursued this dream, I almost certainly would have become one of the worst possible statistics.
So many of my friends in the industry have either themselves come close, or have lost a friend or collaeague, or more than one.
The industry is in crisis on many levels.
To vet staff: You are not alone. Please, PLEASE reach out if you are struggling in any way.
To veterinary clients: Remember to be kind to vet staff. They are dealing with so much trauma already without us adding to it. 💕

Vet Professionals: You are not alone. We see you. We hear you. We will keep speaking up for you.

Please keep sharing your stories and messages of support. They affirm why we created the Lost campaign and make us determined as ever to push for change.

Don’t forget to share our campaign with others. The more signatures we get, the stronger we are 👉 https://sophieslegacy.com/campaigns/lost

If you are ever in need of urgent support please call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Stay tuned, we have an awesome announcement coming in the next few days!

In the meantime, don't forget to give your fur, feather and scaly babies a cuddle from us!

It's Time To Say Goodbye

Hi everyone, it is with a heavy heart that I bring you this news. After nearly 10 years, the time has come that I must step back from FurEver After.
In the last 5 years in particular, I have given everything to the business. I have willingly sacrificed much to be there for my clients during this time, but sadly, when it comes to sacrificing time with my loved ones - furry and human - I am not the only one who loses out.
The loss of my beloved Napoleon in 2022, and the passing of numerous family members (furry and extended) in 2023 has made me realise that my loved ones need and deserve my time and energy. Further, my recovery after being a passenger in a car accident last November has made me realise that *I* also deserve my time and attention.

As such, I have made the very difficult decision to stop providing cremation services in the near future. I do not yet have a date of when this will be, but will provide updates as arrangements are finalised.
It is my aim to continue to provide memento services on request, and I can then assist with transfer to a chosen crematorium, and more details on this will also be forth coming.

For anyone whose bubba is currently with me, or whose mementos are in progress, this news does not effect anything and everything will proceed as normal for your babies and mementos going home.

I will be selling the cremation equipment and related stock, and if anyone is interested, you can email me at [email protected] to discuss.

Thank you to everyone who has been supportive of the extreme difficulties and challenges our family has faced these last couple of years. It has been an honour to care for so many beloved pets.
Please give your fur babies a cuddle from me.

14/11/2023

Posted with permission from a wonderful client, your kind words mean so much ❤. We are always honoured to be able to help bring your pets home again.

If you want us to post a photo of the beautiful memorials you have set up, please feel free to DM us a photo with a quote if you like and we would love to share a post of your pets and honour their memory with everyone on the Furever After page.

Please take a moment and appreciate the beautiful pawprints we had the opportunity of creating recently for a lovely young family.

Diego, their darling little boy won't be able to make memories as he grows with his big fur brother, Clyde, who has sadly moved across the rainbow bridge, but he will hear stories and be able to look at these prints we created with fondness knowing he was there.

We want to thank them for the honour of entrusting us with helping to guide Clyde on his journey and in creating this memory for their son.

Sorry if there is a delayed response to any messages, we have the management team on Michelle's back about it.

The Optus network is also completely down currently, so management is mostly just getting cuddles in response.

05/11/2023

We will be closed on the 7th next week due to the public holiday, business hours will resume as normal after 😊

02/11/2023

Hey everyone, this is Sam, and I'm here to help Michelle, so I'll be posting on the page going forward.

As many of you know, Michelle is the heart and soul behind FurEver After, and for the last 9 years she has been doing the majority of the work herself.

In the last 18 months, she has endured extensive physical and emotional trauma including covid, injuries and the loss of multiple fur and human family members - including the devastating passing of her beloved special needs kitty, Napoleon (pictured), this time last year.

Michelle has always made an effort to be available for her clients when they need her, however these last 18 months have taught her that she also needs to take time for herself, and her human and fur family, if she is going to be able to continue doing so.

As Michelle is managing the majority of communications on her own, we ask for patience in getting a response and respect for the business hours, as while she is the creator of FurEver After, she is still only human. It is better to contact the business via sms where possible.

Thank you for your understanding.

Business Hours:
Mon - 11am - 6.30pm
Tues - 11am - 5.30pm
Wed - Closed
Thurs - 11am - 6.30pm
Fri - 11am - 5.30pm
Sat - Closed
Sun - Closed
Public Holidays - Closed

PLEASE READ:

On sunday night Michelle had a bit of an accident that resulted in a late night visit to emergency. For the next few days she will not be answering phone calls and may be slow responding to text messages, as she needs some time to recover.

Please don't worry, she will be okay, but she needs some time to rest and heal. We appreciate your understanding while Michelle takes care of herself, so she can continue to be available to take care of your furbabies.

How adorable is this as an urn for our beloved teeny tinies?

On another note, I will be posting an announcement in the next couple of days with an update on reopening our services properly. Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding during these incredibly difficult months. We aren't through it all yet, but your support and kind words have helped me find the strengths and resilience to keep FurEver After going. xx
Please give all your furry, feathered and scaly babies babies a pat, cuddle or treat from me.
xx
Michelle
