I didn't realize you could get coffins for pets. I'm not surprised but I never even entertained the idea.
Thanks.

That's fair enough. Over here you can have your pet cremated privately (they give you a cert to show that he or she was treated separately; of course you pay for this) and then they deliver a tiny little coffin/casket with the pet's name on a little golden plaque on it. It's actually quite comforting, I find: almost like he never really left.

No of course not, his ashes are. See above.

Not an urn as such: it's made to look like a coffin but yes essentially an urn.
