Indie documentarian Errol Morris trains his lens on obsessive pet owners and the zeitgeist that supports them, including pet cemetery owners and embalmers. Pet owners talk candidly about the challenges they face dealing with feelings of bereavement.

I personally am all for a pet cemetery I think that it could be a good idea for those of us living in towns where we don't have a yard to bury or beloved pet or for those who do not wish to bury there pet in there yard due to a possible move. My mom had 2 of her dogs cremated and that is also a good idea to me but when I found out that you have to pay more for your animals ashes back I thought that was ridiculous because the vet told my mom she could pay a small fee and get ashes back from several animals or she could pay more to insure it is her pet and not someone else's!!! I couldn't believe it that someone would pay to have there pet cremated with other pets and then not really be sure how much of your pets ashes you where getting. So think after watching this film I have become more interested in pet cemetery's due to the fact that I have pets of my own.
So what do you all think? To cremate or bury? How do you feel on this subject?

Fortunately for me my husband's family has their own home. They've had this home for many years & plan on giving it to my husband & his brother should anything happen to them. If anything were to happen to any of my pets I would like to have them buried there since my husband's favorite childhood dog & cat are already buried there as well. I think it's a good idea though to have pet cemeteries for those pet owners who do not have a back yard of there own.

I too thankfully have family with property, so I always have the option of burying my loved pets there, I am glad for it too because otherwise I rent my home and my yard is small. I think Pet cemetery's are a good idea and could be helpful to many people.
