If youâve ever considered commemorating your beloved deceased animal with a memorial sculpture, youâll be inspired by Mémoire de toutouâs wide range of options. Based in Chicoutimi, Quebec, the company was founded in 2016 with the goal of finding a use for surplus concrete from construction sites and the foundersâ business plan was a runaway success on Dans lâÅil du dragon (the French language version of Dragonâs Den). The companyâs environmentally-conscious commemorative sculptures are strikingâfor instance, in the shape of a bone, a paw, a kennel or a dog ⦠with plenty of choices also available to cat lovers. Each mini-memorial comes with a permanent, weather-resistant marker which provides families in mourningâand especially childrenâthe possibility of personalizing their sculpture with a permanent message, thought or memory. Some memorials have a sealable compartment to let you safely store your special pet souvenir. âSome of our clients keep their dogâs collar, a fur clipping or some of their ashes,â says company co-founder Frédérique Bouchard. âPeople can keep their mini-memorial inside or else put it in their garden, wherever their animal liked to be.â A new product series will be launched during the summer, featuring a collection of mini personalized gravestones for pet cemeteries. Located in the Saguenay region of Quebec, Mémoire de toutou distributes their products throughout the province in Mondou stores. You can also order online for delivery throughout Canada. Prices start at $49.99. Website in French only. (Pawsie)
