Euthanasia
When it is time to say goodbye
We have a special, peaceful room reserved for euthanasia where you can take the time you need to say goodbye to your pet.
Burial
The City of Vaasa maintains a graveyard for small animals along Rantamaantie. Contact details: tel. 0400 169022 viheralueyksikko@vaasa.fi.
Cremation
Pet cremation takes place at a crematorium intended for pets. At our clinic, we cooperate with the pet funeral home Tähtipöly, which is located in Vaasa. You can leave your pet with us after the euthanasia, or if your pet has died at home, funeral home Tähtipöly will collect him or her the same day.
You can choose from two cremation alternatives: a joint cremation after which your pet’s ashes will be placed in an urn cemetery, or an individual cremation after which your pet’s ashes will be delivered to your home or you can pick them up from the crematorium office.
Of course, you can also choose to use another crematorium. Crematorium Aarnituuli in Kauhajoki can collect your pet from your home on any day of the week between 8:00–22:00, or you can deliver your pet to the crematorium yourself. Of course, Aarnituuli can also collect your pet from our clinic during our opening hours, but it is up to you to organise the collection with Aarnituuli.
Post-mortem examination
If a post-mortem examination is to be carried out on a small pet, the pet is to be delivered to the Finnish Food Authority’s office in Helsinki.
Contact us by phone for more info, in case it is needed.
