In a few days, I'm going to get a nice wooden box with Holly's ashes in it [View all]

I have Bootsy's ashes in an ugly maroon-colored tin can with black paw prints on it and scotch tape over the top. I guess my former vet used a much cheaper cremation service.

So sorry for you and Holly. We had Mom's two cats cremated and got wooden boxes with a brass plate and photo holder for eppur_se_muova Monday #2

That sounds nice. Mines ashes Figarosmom Monday #3
