The Cat Cremation Process
At Patch & Purr, your beloved cat will be cremated alone. Our unique Pet Tracker 360 means that you will be sure that the ashes you receive will be those of only your cat.
Visit our South Coast or Middle Cove locations to meet our friendly staff to organise your cat cremation. You will be made to feel at home in our comfortable and spacious facility. Our South Coast location even has a viewing window into the cremation room so you can feel secure in the knowledge that your furry friend is treated with the respect they deserve.
Why Choose Cat Cremation
Whether your cat has lived a long and happy life or it was sadly taken too young, cremation is a great way for you and your family to deal with the grief of losing a loved one.
We will offer you guidance and throughout every stage, so you will always feel informed about what will happen in the cremation process.
After the cremation, you will receive the ashes of your pet alone. It’s up to you what you do with ashes. For an outdoor cat, you could scatter the ashes in their favourite hiding spot. Indoor cats are often kept in an ornamental urn in your home, where they loved to play and snuggle.
