Thank you so much to everyone who posted about their much-loved pet's for our annual Memory Tree 🌈.

We receive such an overwhelming response every year, and could only add up to 50 tags, but we loved reading and looking through the beautiful photographs of those who are being remembered this year.

We wish you a peaceful Christmas, surrounded by love and precious memories to be treasured, please feel free to continue sharing these with us in the comments if you would like to 🐾

Our Larkhall Crematorium have received a lovely review from Christine regarding her beloved cat, Troy.

"Dear team,

I just wanted to let you know that Troy is now back home and to thank you so much for looking after him whilst he was in your care, special thanks to Tony. It was heartwarming to open the poignantly designed box and see his beautiful sleeping cat casket, paw prints and bottled hair. All so thoughtfully presented. Thank you for your kind words and for confirming Troy's front left paw was used for the clay print. It has greatly helped to ease the heartbreak of losing my beloved Troy.

Kindest regards from Christine and Troy"

Our Larkhall Crematorium have received a lovely 5 star review.

"We had to put my wee man (dog) Jenson to sleep on the 2/01/24. We then took him to this company on the 3/01/24 & got his ashes back on the 4/01/24. From the minute we walked in with Jenson & when we got his ashes back. We knew they would take care of him just by the way they spoke & treated us. We would 100% recommend this company to take care of your beautiful pet & family member."

Thank you to David & Wendy for your kind words. We are so glad that we could support you during this sad time of losing your beloved Jenson.
