Deciding on the size and type of the pet urn
To determine the size of the pet urn, know the pet’s body weight. Every pound of body weight is equal to one cubic inch capacity of the urn. If the pet, therefore weighs 20 lbs., one needs an urn which is roughly 20 cubic inches. However, it is always best to settle on one which is a little bigger than what one needs. The place where the urn will be placed may also be considered. If it will be placed indoor, its color and size must suit and blend with the room’s color and size.
