For some pet owners, losing a beloved pet is akin to losing a member of one’s family, and the wood or ceramic urns that many choose to keep their pet’s ashes in only provide a minimum of consolation. The Soft-Hearted Pillow is an alternative to traditional urns that features a zippered pouch containing the pet’s ashes at the center of a soft pillow, so mourning pet owners can still hold and hug their lost pet.
The pillows are hand made and sized 16 inches square and approximately 4 inches thick; customers can choose from various fabrics and have their pet’s name and dates embroidered into them. The pouch containing ashes is tucked securely into a hidden pocket in the pillow’s center.
Soft-Hearted Products has now been in business for over a year and has created a line of pillow urns for many kinds of pets, with distribution both online and in pet funeral parlors in the U.S. and abroad, selling for around 125$ each. The pillow was awarded Pet Style News Magazine’s “Editor’s Choice Award” for best pet memorial product.
