But it is kinda cool how you can remember your pet or loved one like that. But, it iis waaaaaaay to expencive. So when my guinea pigs die I think I'll just remember them by keeping a lock of hair or something. :) that is sad. But it is kinda cool how you can remember your pet or loved one like that.

There was no saving the sweet little thing. This was her first kitten and beloved. (And too young to get the shots to prevent FIV. She had already been exposed before we got her.) My husband and I had a locket engraved with the kitten's name, put in a photo of the kitten, and a few hairs cut from her fur under plastic facing the photo. While nothing can replace the pet, the locket has provided some comfort. She wears it most of the time. Entire cost: $25. Different people grieve differently. In many cases pets are loved dearly. Last I checked I'm not the arbiter of how one should grieve. As long as there is no cruelty or neglect to the animals people can make their own choices. Personally, I know of much better uses for the ltons of money spent on cloning (and it's only a genetic clone - not the same animal and personality - remember "The Boys from Brazil?"), pet costumes, ash diamonds, etc. There are so many great pets available at shelters that need loving homes. A new pet can't replace the old one but it will give a lot of love. My teenage daughter was absolutely devastated when her beautiful 3 1/2 month old kitten died of FIV last December.

Let these animals go in peace. If having them cremated works best for you, then leave them in the urn, instead of extracting their DNA. Who's to know what happens after all that?

I think it's a great way to remember your pet. Since I'm against diamonds, I would go with cubic zirconiums though. I love it. I think it’s a great way to remember your pet.
