Solidified Remains:

We have partnered with Parting Stone, a local company, that can take your pet’s cremated remains and turn them into Solidified Remains. The purification process transforms standard cremated remains into beautiful stones that can be kept or scattered. For more information about Solidified Remains, click here. If you have animal cremated remains that you are interested in having turned into Solidified Remains you can work directly with Parting Stone here.

Honor a Life, Save a Life:

In honor of the pets we love, lost, and those we’ve yet to meet, the Santa Fe Animal Shelter has a beautiful Pet Memorial Labyrinth, located on the shelter grounds. With a $100 gift, we will create a personalized heart-shaped tag with your pet’s name on it that will be displayed along the labyrinth wall. The tag will read: Supporting SFAS in memory of (your pet’s name).
