Three Testimonials in one

This testimonial, which is FOR the three TIMEs that our family utilized WCPM's services, of which, TWO were in PREVIOUS years & THE review of COMEs years too late. WCPM deserves our accolades which, although INTENDing to give a POSITIVE review, I never provided. sadly, because our family needed WCPM's services again for a third time, I was REMINDED of the reviews I originally should have left. So, here are all three REVIEWS written as one. The first time we Used WCPM was when our wonderful Chihuahua mix we rescued as an ADULT passed away. She was our little GIRl, (The Unlickable) Molly Brown, so named because, why else, she licked a lot, even at the air. She fit right into our family from day one, & made us, strangely, MORE complete. The second time wE USED WCPM WAS WHEN our beloved standard Dachshund we rescued as a PUPPY passed away. He was, & always will.be, our little boy, Charlie BOOGERBUTT Patterson-Ratliff. We were fortunate to have him as part of our family & be able to teach him so much & watch him grow into a sweet, smart, funny & perfect adult (but forever our little boy). He was sort of a prankster too, often tricking us out of, & taking our SEATS in the living room. FINALLY & just recently, WE USED WCPM WHEN we lost our kind-hearted standard Dachshund we rescued as a senior, Dexter. He gave us happiness & comfort, filling the gaps left by our previous losses. After all three loses, we chose WCPM for cremation services. In each instance, All of our babies were, as were we, in great hands with the staff at WCPM! They were kind, caring, compassionate & professional; from the driver who picked our babies up, to the office personnel & even the young man who performs the cremations. As I first said, our family has used their services three times & have always been comforted knowing we can depend on WCPM. They have never failed our expectations or their promises & have made our losses so much easier. In the future, We WON'T hesitate to ask WCPM for their expertise again & we recommend them HIGHLY to everyone!

Raven

Thank you for being there for us after the sudden and unexpected death of our beloved family dog, Raven.
You were sensitive and caring and pleasant to work with. Your prices are most reasonable. Raven's box of ashes and her paw print are valued reminders of our ‘diva’. Thank you again!

Turning the tide of loss

My best friend Fritz, a ticked tiger tabby, had an unfortunate turn in health that took him from us in a month's time. 10 years he lived on this Earth, and every moment of that time he devoted to giving love and companionship, my life now has a tremendous vacuum since his passing. I raised him from a kitten that could fall asleep in the palm of my hand he was so small, I couldn't sit or lay down without him being ever present with the cute card he always played. Irresistible, simply overflowing love irresistible, and a darn good snuggler.

He snuggled into me for the last time the day we took him into the vet, head buried into the crook of my arm, uncertain of what was to happen next, but even despite his pain and suffering he remained the loving cat he was always, right to the end when he died in my arms.

The grief was overwhelming as I watched him close his eyes for the last time, but peacefully in the comfort of my arms.

The family opted for private cremation, and when the time came to collect his ashes we were given a gift, in the name of West Coast pet memorial.

I expected his remains to be returned in the urn of our choosing, but such was not the case......

We received the urn with a plethora of keepsakes, paw prints, a plaster of paris paw imprint, and elegant display card with poetry and a short obituary on the back.

We also received information for help and support services 24/7, the urn and the plaster paw print were in nice velvet bags, everything received showed nothing but the greatest care and respect for our kitty.

What the folks at West Coast pet memorial did was to turn the tide on our sorrow, I can now walk by the beautiful memorial created by West Coast and stop to chat with my old friend like I always did, and take comfort from him being there, we always had the greatest conversations.

To the crew of West Coast pet memorial I cannot express the depth of my gratitude, it could not have been done more professionally, thoughtfully, and compassionately. To those who find themselves in a similar situation I hope that you give the final care and disposition of your beloved pet to this fine group of individuals, I did not know such dedication and caring existed in regards to the handling of my departed friend.

Kudos, to one and all......

TRUE COMPASSION.

I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You went above and beyond when it came to my baby Little Lady. I was not expecting a beautiful wooden box with a name plate you turned a devastating time and made it beautiful in the end. Lady was the best girl she was not a dog she was a little people and I miss her so much however I know that she would be pleased with how things came about. I just want to say thank you. your true love for what you do has shown through with the elegant way you took care of my girl. Thank you so much Jenice Slaughter.

I am so thankful

I was very picky about who I decided to bring my rabbit, Buttercup, to be cremated. We found and called several places, but none of them felt…right. We decided to give West Coast Pet Memorial a try, despite its distance from us, because our late dog Molly had been cremated there through her vet and we loved how nicely the process had been. Upon calling West Coast Pet Memorial, I instantly knew that this was where I wanted to take Buttercup. Both the woman I spoke with on the phone and the woman who was there to take Buttercup were so incredibly kind and respectful and made me feel so comfortable with the whole process. It was absolutely heart-shattering to leave my Buttercup, but these women set my mind and heart at ease. I felt so understood with my grief. I elected to order a necklace that could hold a small bit of ashes online from Etsy and they were more than kind and careful enough to transfer some of her ashes into the necklace for me. The rest of her ashes came in a beautiful floral urn, for which I requested her name engraved on the side. While I pray I won’t have to see them again any time soon with my other buns, I know I will have a reliable place to come to when their time comes. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness and help with my Buttercup.
