About FurMemor

What is FurMemor?

FurMemor is a pet memorial brand creating personalized keepsakes to honor beloved dogs, cats, and other companion animals. Our collection includes personalized pet urns, memorial jewelry, custom pet portraits, and meaningful pet memorial gifts.

What types of pet memorial products does FurMemor offer?

FurMemor offers personalized pet urns for ashes, memorial jewelry, custom pet portraits, pet keepsakes, and personalized memorial gifts. Product materials and customization options vary by design, so please check each product page for details.

Are FurMemor products handmade?

Many FurMemor memorial products are individually handmade by artisans. Depending on the design, products may be hand-sculpted, hand-painted, carved, assembled, or otherwise individually crafted rather than mass-produced.

Do you use AI or 3D printing to create handmade pet memorials?

FurMemor focuses on handmade creation. Our handmade memorial artwork is created by real artisans rather than generated by AI or mass-produced using 3D printing. Your pet’s photos are used as references when creating personalized artwork.

Personalization & Pet Photos

How do I send my pet’s photos for customization?

After placing your order, please send the required pet photos and customization information to support@furmemor.com. Please include your order information so our team can match your photos with the correct order.

What kind of pet photos should I send?

Clear, well-lit photos provide the best reference. For products that recreate your pet’s appearance, we recommend sending front-view, side-view, and close-up photos that clearly show coat colors, markings, facial features, and expression.

Can you work from old pet photos?

In many cases, yes. If the photo clearly shows your pet’s important features, our artisans may still be able to use it as a reference. If possible, send several photos so we have more information about your pet’s appearance.

Can I personalize a product with my pet’s name?

Selected FurMemor products can be personalized with your pet’s name, memorial date, or other available details. Please check the individual product page to see which personalization options are offered.

Can you recreate my pet’s unique markings?

For products created from your pet’s photos, our artisans use visible details such as coat colors, facial markings, patches, fur patterns, and expression as references. Clear photos of distinctive features are especially helpful.

Will my custom memorial look exactly like my pet’s photo?

Handmade memorials are artistic representations rather than exact photographic reproductions. Our artisans use your photos as references and carefully recreate important details while preserving the natural character of handmade work.

Personalized Pet Urns

What is a personalized pet urn?

A personalized pet urn is a memorial container designed to hold a pet’s cremated remains while incorporating personal details such as the pet’s name, portrait, markings, colors, or other customized features.

Do you offer both dog urns and cat urns?

Yes. FurMemor offers personalized dog urns and cat urns for ashes in different styles, materials, sizes, and customization options.

What materials are FurMemor pet urns made from?

Materials vary by product. FurMemor pet urns may be made from composite ceramic and resin, wood, or other materials depending on the design. Please refer to the individual product page for exact material information.

How do I choose the right pet urn size?

Please use the size and capacity guide shown on the individual product page. Pet weight recommendations are approximate because the actual volume of cremated remains can vary depending on bone structure and the cremation process.

Can I choose a larger urn if I am unsure about the size?

Yes. If you are unsure between two urn sizes, choosing the larger size can provide additional space. We recommend checking the actual volume of your pet’s ashes whenever possible.

Can pet urns be customized from my pet’s photos?

Selected pet urns can be hand-sculpted and hand-painted using your pet’s photos as references. Other urn designs may offer name personalization instead. Please check the product page for the exact customization method.

How should I place ashes inside a pet urn?

The storage method depends on the urn design. We generally recommend keeping cremated remains inside a securely sealed inner bag before placing them inside the urn. Please follow the instructions provided on the specific product page.

Pet Memorial Jewelry

What is pet memorial jewelry?

Pet memorial jewelry is a wearable keepsake designed to help you keep the memory of a beloved pet close. FurMemor offers memorial jewelry and personalized designs inspired by dogs, cats, and the bond shared with them.

Can memorial jewelry be personalized?

Personalization options vary by jewelry design. Some pieces may feature customized pet details, charms, names, or other memorial elements. Please check the individual product page for available options.

How should I care for pet memorial jewelry?

Keep memorial jewelry away from harsh chemicals, excessive moisture, perfume, and prolonged exposure to water unless the individual product instructions state otherwise. Store it carefully when not in use.

FurMemor offers different styles of personalized pet artwork, including handmade and hand-painted memorial pieces as well as layered portrait designs. Materials and production methods vary by product.

Can I order a pet portrait before my pet passes away?

Yes. Custom pet portraits and keepsakes can be created to celebrate a pet at any stage of life. They do not have to be ordered only as memorial products.

What are pet memorial gifts?

Pet memorial gifts are keepsakes created to honor the memory of a beloved animal. They may include personalized artwork, jewelry, urns, portraits, keychains, and other items connected to the pet’s name, appearance, or memory.

Can I send a FurMemor product as a pet loss gift?

Care & Product Differences

How should I care for a hand-painted pet memorial?

Keep hand-painted memorials indoors and away from prolonged moisture, harsh cleaning products, and direct sunlight. Gently remove dust using a soft, dry cloth when necessary.

How should I care for wooden memorial products?

Keep wooden memorial products indoors in a cool, dry environment. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight and excessive humidity. Natural variations in wood grain, color, and texture are normal.

Why does my handmade item look slightly different from the product photos?

Handmade products naturally have small variations. Differences in brushwork, sculpted details, wood grain, color, texture, or assembly are normal and help make each memorial unique.

Can I order a memorial for an animal other than a dog or cat?

Some FurMemor products may be suitable for other companion animals. Please contact us before ordering so we can confirm whether the product can be customized for your pet.
