INDIVIDUAL CREMATION OPTIONS (ASHES RETURNED):
Individual Cremation can be organised with and paid directly to The Visiting Vet Company (please check to ensure this service is available when booking).
There are two options for this service:
​
We can take your pet with us to the crematorium in Harrogate and return their ashes to you, aiming to return ashes to you within the week. PLEASE NOTE THIS RETURN IS IN A SCATTER TUBE ONLY, AND CAN ONLY BE CARRIED OUT ON WEEKDAYS.
​
Or we can take your pet with us to be cremated by PCS. Ashes are returned within 2 weeks in most cases. This option is available 7 days a week. Prices quoted are for a scatter tube or eco bamboo casket with a plaque with your pet's name on. If there is any chance you may wish to scatter the ashes at any point, we recommend opting for the scatter tube as these also look nice on display. We are able to get other options from their website at an additional cost. Please ask if you would like a quote for an alternative vessel.
