cremation

[timefore]

does anyone know whether cremation for pets is available in TRNC?

[Marions]

No facilities, I believe. But double check with KAR they will tell you for sure. they used to be able to use hospital facilities, but that is no longer the case. But, as I say, do double check with KAR who have up to the minute information on this. But I am pretty sure the answer is 'no'.

Shame because goodness knows where I will be able to bury my dog. Living in the mountains it is impossible to dig a hole.

Hi Marion,Dudu ain't going anywhere yet!!!

[Marions]

Thanks Owl Lady. I would hope not, and by the time she has to go, you never know, they might have a doggie crematorium, or a proper dog cemetery, or I might be liv ing somewhere else where there is.

Apparently K9 kennels advertise a pet cemetery ( no comment!!!)

[Marions]

Yes, we have spoken of this before on Kibkom. I really ought to do some proper research and report back, but time has eluded me. Not enough of it!

Yes this is something that a lot of people are concerned about. Most people don't have the room or want to have the dog buried in their garden. Surely some enterprising person has some land that could be used for a pet cemetery.

There are no facilities for cremating animals unfortunately. In any case the cost of "no smoke" incinerators is humungus. Some dogs are huge as you know and permission to operate one would not be given. Cremation is not a concept in this or any other Middle Eastern country (to the best of my knowlege) I believe K9 do advertise a pet cemetery.

We had our Golden Retriever cremated by Pet Line—very nice and discreet service.

Cost £350 last year.
