Paws Over The Rainbow

The month of August marks the 3 year anniversary of having to say goodbye to our lovely Tank. At the time of his passing we did not have the headspace to decide on what should happen with him afterwards. We therefore got his ashes back in a scattertube.
Just last month Kings Hill Cremations showed me this beautiful urn with "paws over the rainbow" and it just felt right. Tank was my inspiration for starting this venture. We always aim to give pets the same dignified, peaceful and pain free passing that I gave Tank.

I can’t believe it has been 6 months since I officially started Paws Over The Rainbow. I am so grateful for all the support and help I have received. Please allow me to mention my husband Paul Headland in particular, who has been fantastic in taking on most of the day to day family practicalities allowing me the time and space to dedicate to my little business whilst still having quality time with our girls.
Secondly, I would really like to thank Emily Jane and Laura Scrase who help out whenever they can to make sure we help as many families as possible whilst also allowing me the occasional weekend off.
But most of all I would really like to thank all the lovely families who over the last 6 months have trusted me to help their beloved pet on their final journey. I feel so privileged to be able to use my skills to offer dignity and peace at the final farewell and hopefully a little bit of comfort.
I know many of you, bereaved families as well as friends and families, have kindly spread awareness of Paws Over The Rainbow and recommended me. I am truly touched by all your support and I couldn't do it without you all.

Another few pictures from the archives. This handsome man would have turned 10 yesterday. Sadly, we lost him some years ago to cancer. Tank was with us through all our ups and downs including a long drive to Denmark, so he could be at our wedding. We miss him every day.
At Paws Over The Rainbow we understand how pets are not just pets, they are part of the family. Therefore, when it is time to say goodbye it is important that it is done peacefully, compassionately and without pain. This is often easier to achieve if the pet is in their own home.

Everyone meet Pelle. Apologies for the poor quality photos, but somehow these photos are nearly 30 years old. When did I get this old?
Pelle was my first cat. I was 14 years old when we got him, and I had wanted a cat for many years so he was a dream come true. He was the most cuddly, funny and loving cat I could have wished for and we were never found far apart when I was at home.
At my third year of vet school Pelle unfortunately got very ill. The vet told us, our only option was to humanely put him to sleep. He then informed us, he was going to take Pelle to the back and place a catheter into a vein and bring him back for the injection that would make him pass away. I remember asking if we couldn't stay with him, but the vet explained to us, that was not how it was done, his kit and nurse was in the back so it was better that way. I remember the heart ache of knowing my beautiful boy only had a limited time left, and I wouldn't be spending every minute of that with him.

A home euthanasia visit means you can be by the side of your pet right until the end. Your pet can be cuddled up in your arms, laying on your lap or be curled up in their favorite bed to make the goodbye as comfortable as possible.
We always use a sedation before placing a catheter into their vein. They go into a deep snooze, making the catheter placement peaceful and pain free.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
💜🧡💜
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable...

At Paws Over The Rainbow we offer Saturday appointments for several reasons. Firstly, we are aware that sadly at times workplaces are not supportive of time off for our poorly pets, so a Saturday appointment might be less stressful for the owner.
Secondly, at times children might have flown the nest but wanting to be present for the final goodbye, and again a Saturday appointment might help facilitate this.
It is worth being aware, we do NOT charge an extra fee for a Saturday appointment nor do we charge extra for visits that are not pre-booked.

I have been terribly quiet on here lately and I apologise. It is so important to raise awareness about the possibility of home visit euthanasias.
Lately, however, my time has mainly been taken up by helping lovely families who want their pets to pass away in their own home. If you are considering using my services, why not read my google reviews to get an idea of how families feel I helped them at their time of need.

Home visit euthanasia can be the right decision for you and your pet for several reasons. Some of those are:

🟣 Being in your own home means your pet will often be less stressed than at the vets
🟠 Being in your own home offers you more privacy at such a sad time
🟣 Being in your own home means there are no limitations on how many loved ones can be present. And if close family are far they can always join by video call
🟠 Being in your own home means there are no time constraints

If you think a home visit euthanasia might be the right thing for you and your pet then please do not hesitate to reach out either by phone 07942077180 or email [email protected] . Your are also welcome to have a look around my webpage www.pawsovertherainbow.co.uk

At Paws Over The Rainbow we understand that a pet is much more than a pet, it is a part of the family.

It can be very overwhelming as an owner, when it is time to let a very loved pet go. Paws Over The Rainbow offers gentle and dignified home visit euthanasias and can help you at any point of your journey right from deciding when it is the right time to let your pet go to choosing what you would like to happen after your pet has passed away.

It is always important to know your choices. When your pet has passed away there is the option to bury your pet at home, however, most owners decide on cremation. You are always welcome to make your own arrangements for cremation, however, Paws Over The Rainbow are happy to help if needed. We work with Kings Hill Cremations, which is an individually owned crematorium near Nuneaton. They share the same beliefs that pets should be handled with respect and dignity at any point of their journey. Furthermore, they are able to offer a range of beautiful keepsakes and pawprints.

We had our beloved dog cremated here ourselves and were very assured he was in safe hands until we got him back.

If you have any questions about home visit euthanasias or aftercare please reach out.

Paws Over The Rainbow started as a dream in 2021 after the founding vet, Tine, sadly had to euthanise her beloved dog, Tank, due to cancer. Tank had never liked visiting the vets, so Tine and her family found comfort in being able to send him on his final journey from the comfort of his own home.

Paws Over The Rainbow offers owners the possibility of a gentle and compassionate euthanasia of their beloved pet in the comfort of their own home.
