(634 posts)I'm so sorry for your loss.
I've had several of my cats cremated and don't remember how long it's taken but I do know that the crematorium doesn't pick up from my vet right away and I guess that goes for when they deliver the ashes back so 2 weeks doesn't sound like too long, really. Maybe they pick up once a week and deliver once a week so they say possibly 2 weeks to allow for extra time depending on pickup/drop-off schedules ???
Once went to an actual pet cemetery and actually had a viewing before the cremation. Won't do that again because it didn't really help and just seemed to give me time to cry in front of others, although I guess that's true of human funerals as well.
My cousin has agreed to have my cats' ashes buried with mine in the family plot. There are already one beloved dog's ashes there (added some time after my Uncle's funeral).
