Freeze dry your pet for $395!

Or more, if you have a normal sized pet.

This is topical for me.  My beloved rat, Scotch, died recently and because the ground is frozen I cannot bury her.  She is instead in my freezer at the suggestion of my father.  Some think that's excessive, as she is in fact just a rat.

So imagine the thoughts going through my head when I saw this:
That is Foxy.  When she died, her owner Debbie was distraught.  But rather than bury Foxy, as most of us would have done, or have her cremated as we have done, Debbie went to Perpetual Pet, which for $395 (or more for a larger pet) will freeze dry your pet in a lifelike position so you can make him or her a permanent part of your home's decor.

Is this the extreme version of a rat in a freezer?

  1. I know how you feel. When my pet tortoise died, I had him freeze-dried. Here's a link to the story and photo:
