A Cat Memorial for the Kitty You Loved
For some people, the shape of the memorial matters most. Cat-shaped urns and cat statue urns can reflect the familiar silhouette or resting pose of a much-loved cat and feel more like a personal object in the home than a traditional cremation urn.
Others prefer a simpler urn for cat ashes in wood, ceramic or metal. Color can also make a memorial feel more connected to your cat, whether you are drawn to a black, white, gray or warmer-toned design.
There is no need for the urn to match your cat exactly. A color, pose, material or small detail that brings them to mind can be enough to make the memorial feel right.
Full-Size Cat Urns and Smaller Keepsakes
Cat urns are available in different capacities depending on how much of the ashes you plan to keep.
A larger cat cremation urn may hold all of your cat's ashes, while a cat ashes keepsake is designed to hold only a portion. A keepsake can be meaningful if several family members would each like a remembrance, or if most of the ashes will be buried or scattered and you would like to keep a small amount close.
For an even smaller memorial, pet cremation jewelry can hold a very small portion of ashes in a piece that can be worn or kept nearby.
Make Their Memorial More Personal
Many families choose to personalize a cat urn with their companion's name, dates or a short message. Depending on the design, personalization may be engraved directly onto the urn or added with a plaque or pendant.
A photograph can offer another meaningful connection. If keeping a favorite image alongside the ashes feels right, you can also explore our cremation photo urns.
A custom cat urn does not have to be elaborate. Often a name, photograph or few carefully chosen words are enough to turn the memorial into something unmistakably theirs.
Keeping Your Cat's Urn at Home
Many cat urns are designed to rest naturally on a shelf, mantel, table or other quiet place in the home. You may choose to display the urn alongside a photograph, collar, tag or another object that holds a memory.
Where you keep it is personal. Some people create a dedicated memorial space, while others prefer an urn or cat memorial box that becomes a subtle part of the home their cat once shared.
