A memorial is an object or space that helps people remember and honor someone who has passed. Traditional physical memorials include plaques, statues, and garden stones, but they can be expensive and difficult to acquire, especially for children.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\">\n<figure ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"630\" data-attachment-id=\"257\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/online-pet-memorials\/banner_pets\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?fit=2560%2C630&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,630\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Pets\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?fit=646%2C159&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=646%2C159&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?w=2560&amp;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=300%2C74&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=1024%2C252&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=768%2C189&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=1536%2C378&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=2048%2C504&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?resize=770%2C189&amp;ssl=1 770w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?w=1292&amp;ssl=1 1292w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ilovedmypet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/banner_pets.png?w=1938&amp;ssl=1 1938w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 646px) 100vw, 646px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Online pet memorials solve these problems by offering a free, easy-to-create alternative that anyone can access.
