10 Weirdest Ways to Remember Your Pet


10. Clone Them

If you just can’t give up your beloved pet, you can always try cloning them if you have a DNA sample and $50,000 lying around like Bernann McKinney did when she got five clones of her beloved pit bull created. Of course, the new puppy clone may look just like your old furry friend, but it will not grow up to have the same personality and behavioral traits, so really, aren’t you better off adopting a new puppy from your local animal shelter?

Most, if not all, of these ideas are very creepy. Especially with "ashes" being mentioned everytime...

The worst one is easily "Load Bullets With Their Ashes: Did little Fido love hunting with you? Then why not take him on one more hunt by loading up your shotgun cartridges with his ashes like Joanna Booth did with her husband’s ashes?" . Well, first of all, I am surprised that so-called "Healthy Living Editors" talk positively about hunting in one of their articles.
Secondly, Joanna Booth and everyone else who claims to love their dogs while they kill other animals, you are nothing but barbaric mad hypocrites. Really, loading the shotgun with your husband's ashes and go killing animals in his memory, something only gun-crazed Americans could do.

i had different reactions to the different ways of remembrance. i saw a woman interviewed that knits animal fur. you send her the fur and she'll mail you a sweater. the cloning bothers me since there are so many homeless animals. and last but not least, is it hygenic to add ashes to tat ink?

Photographs were invented as a way to remember people, places, events and pets. My house is full of photos of my long gone beloved animals. This is enough "remembrance" for me. For everyone else, well, to each their own.

Wow this is bizarre!

I liked most of them except the cloning. Your not getting the same pet- and so many are homeless it just makes no sense to me. Favorite was the diamond from their ashes.
