At Infinity Urns, we understand that losing a beloved pet is a deeply emotional experience. As a family owned UK-based provider of pet caskets and pet urns, we specialise in bespoke pet memorials created with care, dignity, and compassion. Choosing a casket or urn is not simply a purchase — it is a personal decision made during a time of grief. Our approach is built on compassion, personal support, and bespoke design, working closely with families online or via telephone or email to ensure every memorial feels right.
This FAQ is designed to answer common questions while offering gentle guidance and reassurance.
1. What is the difference between a pet casket and a pet urn?
A pet casket is typically used for burial or a final farewell and is designed to hold your pet ashes with dignity and care. At Infinity Urns, our pet caskets are crafted with quality materials and can be personalised to honour your pet’s life.
A pet urn is designed to hold cremated remains. Our urns range from classic to bespoke designs, allowing families to choose a memorial that reflects their pet’s personality and the bond you shared.
2. Do I need a casket if my pet is being cremated?
Not necessarily. Some families choose a pet casket for a private goodbye or viewing before cremation, while others prefer a simpler arrangement. After cremation, ashes are usually returned in an urn.
If you’re unsure what feels right, we’re happy to talk this through with you personally. Please email Sue at infinitycaskets@outlook.com or call on 07732 339517.
3. How do I choose the right size pet casket or urn?
For pet caskets, sizing is based on your pet’s weight and length. For pet urns, a common guide is:
1 cubic inch of urn space per pound of your pet’s weight before cremation.
If measurements feel overwhelming, Infinity Urns offers personal guidance by phone or email, helping you choose with confidence.
4. Can pet caskets and urns be personalised?
Yes — personalisation is at the heart of what we do.
Infinity Urns specialises in bespoke pet memorials, including:
- Custom engravings and plaques
- Your pet’s name and dates
- Personal messages or sentiments
- Engraved portraits or paw prints
We work closely with families to ensure every detail feels meaningful and respectful.
5. What materials are used in Infinity Urns pet memorials?
Our pet caskets and urns are crafted using high-quality materials such as:
- Solid wood, including oak
- Metal or alloy engraved plaques
- Carefully selected finishes for longevity and beauty
Each piece is designed to be a lasting tribute.
6. Are your pet caskets suitable for burial?
Yes. Many of our pet caskets are suitable for burial. If you require an eco-conscious or specific burial option, please let us know so we can advise accordingly.
7. Is it normal to feel unsure or overwhelmed when choosing a pet memorial?
Completely. Grief can make even small decisions feel difficult. There is no correct or incorrect choice — only what brings you comfort.
At Infinity Urns, we believe in listening first, offering gentle support without pressure.
8. How long does a bespoke pet casket or urn take to make?
Bespoke memorials take a little longer, as each piece is created with care and attention to detail. Timeframes vary depending on personalisation, and generally take between 5 & 7 working days to complete. We will always discuss this clearly with you before proceeding.
9. Can I include personal items in my pet’s casket?
Yes. Many families choose to include meaningful items in their pet’s casket as part of their final farewell. This can be a comforting and healing step in the grieving process.
Common items include:
- A favourite toy or blanket
- A collar, lead, or name tag
- Photographs or letters
- A small keepsake that holds special meaning
Including personal items allows the casket to truly reflect your pet’s life and personality. At Infinity Urns, we can advise on space, placement, and suitability, ensuring everything is handled with care and respect.
If you’d like to talk through what you’re considering, we’re always happy to help via telephone or email.
