Still working on the third one but realistically by the time I hit 40 we'll definitely be set.

•Internet stranger hugs• for the third one. I already have all boxes checked, but I'm hoping to avoid adding a second dog's ashes for a few more years. My pup already surprisingly old and hasn't died yet, so, if that trend continues, he should live forever.

41 and I have the weird collection (pro wrestling memorabilia from before 1980. Toronto specific preferred) But I don’t have the friends or pet ashes, I have jars full of my live parrots feathers, which I guess is another weird collection.

2 out of 4 ain't bad, but there's still a little time left for me.

If you have a collection of pets ashes, does that count for both? Also, did they have to be my pets?

[–] sheepishly@fedia.io 2 points 1 week ago

No friends but I have multiple weird collections to make up for it

Thanks, hippie

I have a pet buried in the back yard, does that count?

No, because you have to take your Lil buddy to the vet to get euthanized before you get ashes. Part of the fun trauma of this age is having to be old enough to make that decision. That today is fluffy's last day on earth. Then you get to be guilted by the vet into buying some sort of memorial package in a moment of weakness.

Having your pal turn up toes at home is what gets you a backyard burial. Not awful enough, sorry friend.

Oh, you can have them cremated even if they died peacefully at home, either through a vet or by dealing directly with a pet crematorium. And you can take the body home to bury in the yard even if you've put them to sleep.

Yes to all of these, although my current friends and wierd collections are both relatively newly acquired

[–] _lilith@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago
