Cat cremation ashes urn 'Sleeping cat'

Resting, as you remember her

Your cat curled in the sun, settled beside you on the sofa, entirely at peace. That quality of stillness is what this urn holds. Hand-modelled from clay and finished in bronze, the sleeping cat figure is not a generic memorial object. It is a recognition of who she was.

Hand-modelled ceramic with a bronze finish

This pet cremation urn is not cast from a mould. Each piece is shaped by hand from clay, a process that takes time and a feel for proportion that no production line can replicate. The bronze finish is applied with durability in mind and gives the surface a depth that sprayed lacquer does not achieve. Because every piece is formed by hand, there is a slight variation between them. Each one is its own object, which feels right for a urn that honours a particular animal.

Personalisation by engraving

If you would like to personalise this urn for ashes, engraving is available. You can have your cat's name added, a date, or a short phrase that meant something to you both. Take your time deciding what to include when you order. There is no pressure to choose immediately.

Practical things worth knowing

Ceramic is a solid material, but it rewards careful handling, particularly when transferring ashes or placing the urn on an uneven surface outdoors. This urn is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

The bronze finish and outdoor placement

The bronze finish is weather-resistant and tolerates moisture well in normal conditions. Prolonged exposure to standing water or hard frost can affect the surface over time, so during severe weather it is worth bringing the urn inside. A sheltered outdoor spot will keep it looking its best across the seasons.

How much ash will fit

You do not need to decide everything at once. This cremation urn can hold the full volume of ashes, but a partial arrangement works just as well. Some people keep part of the ashes in an urn like this and scatter the rest at a place that held meaning, or divide them between a memorial urn and a piece of memorial jewellery. If you are not yet sure of the volume, the crematorium can usually tell you. If you have already received a standard pet urn, you can work out the volume from that and transfer the ashes across.

If you are unsure about size or what to have engraved, please do get in touch before you order. You do not have to work it out alone.
