Beautiful garden memorial for our 9 year old cat Velvet...

We love our talking stone pet memorial for Velvet. It will be placed under our olive trees with our 3 other kitties' stones (Ruski, Cuddles, Scooter) who have passed since 2014.

Hi Tania, we're truly honoured that you have chosen us to create another memorial for another much loved kitty. It's wonderful to hear it Velvet's Tumbled Riverstone will be a special part of your garden under the olive tree along with the other stones.

This is the 3rd tumbled riverstone memorial I have purchased from Talking Stones

This is the 3rd tumbled riverstone memorial I have purchased from Talking Stones. It is a lovely way to memorialise a loved pet. However, the last stones was quite a bit smaller than the other 2, which is a real shame.

Hi there, thank you for your continued support and for sharing your feedback. We're glad you find our memorials meaningful. I have reached out to you re the size and hope to speak to you soon.

Amazing care and detail

I ordered a Pet Memorial River Stone as a gift for my father who just lost his dog and best friend. Every step of this process was easy and the end result was absolutely perfect.
We couldn’t be happier with the engraved stone. The image I sent was craved into the stone so well. It was exactly what I asked for and it has made my father very happy to have such a beautiful memorial of his best friend on display in his home. Thank you Talking Stones

Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear our personalised product provided a meaningful memorial for your loved one. Our team takes great care in accurately crafting these remembrances, and we appreciate you choosing Talking Stones.

A beautiful memorial

Highly recommend Talking Stones. The care and compassion is next level, starting with the ordering process and preview of the artwork through to the beautifully personalised and presented packaging. This is the second time I have ordered and would not hesitate to recommend them. The stones make a wonderful memorial that will be cherished for many years and have reunited 2 best friends.

Thank you for your continued trust in Talking Stones. We are glad to hear the preview process and final packaging met our standards of care for your second order.

We love the memorial stones you made for our beloved Lily and Oscar who both passed away in June

We love the memorial stones you made for our beloved Lily and Oscar who both passed away in June. We will always remember them both and the Stones will remind us often of how special they were!

Thank you for sharing that with us. We’re so sorry for the loss of Lily and Oscar, and it means a lot to know their memorial stones bring comfort and help keep their memory close. They sound like such special companions, and we’re honoured to have helped create something to remember them by.
