Pet memoir: Expensive pet funerals in Japan

According to Reuters on September 18, a special "pet rainbow Fiesta" activity was held in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, local time. Various ceremonies were held for pets, including cremation, setting up altars, burning incense and chanting sutras. It is reported that for the funeral of pets, the Japanese can be said to have achieved a very meticulous level. There are also some special temples serving pets. A woman mourns her pet at the event.
In fact, in Japan, funeral services can be said to be various. According to earlier reports, at an international funeral industry exhibition, Japan has a chanting robot, which can recognize human emotions and perform Buddhist Chanting at funeral ceremonies. But its "appearance fee" is not cheap. It is reported that the price of the pet funeral is also clearly marked. First of all, the price is different from the weight of the pet. The light weight ones will be cheaper, such as hamsters and birds. The basic price is 95800 yen, and the price of a dog is 114800 yen.
In addition, in addition to the price of pets themselves, some pet memorial gifts and props also need to be charged extra. For example, the price of flower altar is 30000 yen. Of course, you can also play mourning music on the spot.
Pet Memorial gifts
It is understood that the burial of pets has always been controversial. Many people think that throwing it away may pollute the environment. It takes time and effort to bury it. Therefore, this kind of funeral service appears, but it is relatively difficult to implement because it is difficult to classify the pet funeral service. However, the Japanese always have the belief that the soul should rest in peace. Even pets are willing to pay for their care.
It is reported that there are not only pet cremation, pet funerals, pet cemeteries, but also temples dedicated to pets in Japan. Japan's pet crematorium not only provides Pet Cremation services, but also provides farewell ceremony, ashes storage, sale of pet memorial gifts, chanting of the dead and other services.
