PET CELEBRATION

Our 7th annual Pet Celebration event was held on Sunday, Jan. 29, at the Maloof Auditorium in downtown Decatur.  More than 500 people attended the Celebration of Life, which paid tribute to those pets lost in 2011.  As pet owners and families entered the auditorium, they had an opportunity to place a heart, commemorating their pets, on the Memorial Wall.  The crowd was treated to animal video clips and pet poetry.  The highlight of the day was the photo tribute to those pets who passed away during 2011.  The tribute, set to music, was an opportunity to honor those furry and feathered friends, who we miss so much.

 


 

PAWS, WHISKERS AND WAGS ACQUIRES

FAITHFUL FRIENDS PET CREMATION CENTER

Paws, Whiskers & Wags, Your Pet Crematory, Atlanta’s premier pet cremation company based in Decatur, recently acquired Faithful Friends Pet Cremation Center in Covington, Georgia.  Paws, Whiskers & Wags has served over 30,000 pet owners, since opening in 2005. The business will be Paws, Whiskers & Wags, Your Pet Crematory - Faithful Friends Campus. This Covington based business will be re-located to 1595 Access Road, Covington, GA 30016.  Former owner, Faith Ford, and her brother, Dennis Ford, will remain on board and operate the business in its new location.

Christine Hunsaker, owner of Paws, Whiskers & Wags, states, “Acquiring Faithful Friends is a good fit for our Company.  We operate with similar principles: commitment, integrity, honesty and a desire to serve families.  Faith and Dennis are quality people and add significantly to our team.”

Paws, Whiskers & Wags, Your Pet Crematory has become a household name in Atlanta.  We have done so by bringing piece-of-mind to pet owners who desire to have their pet cremated alone and the pet’s ashes returned to them. We have a state-of-the-art facility and are known for 100% full disclosure operations, allowing owners to be present throughout the cremation process.   Our exclusive, trademarked system, the Pet Tracker 360, is one way to ensure the ashes returned are, indeed, those of the intended pet. In addition, our procedures (from start to completion) are filled with pet identification measures.

Since opening in late 2008, Faithful Friends Pet Cremation Center has become known by pet owners and veterinarians for their kind and compassionate service.  “It is our love for pets that has helped us grow,” says Faith Ford, owner of Faithful Friends.  “Merging our companies together is a logical step for us and we are excited to be a part of the Paws, Whiskers and Wags family.”

Samuel Butler once said, "All of the animals, except man, know that the principle business of life is to enjoy it. Pets are constantly reminding us to live life to the fullest, making happy memories from the simplest moments. Frame a photo of your beloved companion to remind you that, even though they are not near, they still wish your every day to be filled with joy and warm memories worth recording in this hand-pressed journal.”

Each gift comes packaged with H&W signature papers, ribbons and tissues. Chocolates, teas and dried fruit are contained in exclusive H&W tins. An embossed signature medallion and a strip of printed ribbon are included in each package. H&W is your gift company when friends need it most.
