A Peaceful Goodbye for Your Beloved Companion — Serving Western Montana
Aquamation – A water-based cremation process for the gentle disposition of your Pet after they have passed. This is a safe, natural, organic and environmentally positive way to honor your pet’s life and legacy.



“Making the choice to use water aquamation made sense to me. I thought fire or ground burial were my only options. I’m really glad I found this gentle and green approach for my 14-year-old Shepherd when she passed way in January. Thank you for taking care of Rosey and for making it easier on me.”

What Is Aquamation?
The Process
The Aquamation process uses gentle water flow, temperature and alkalinity to accelerate our ecosystem’s natural method of breaking down and decomposing organic matter. At the end of the process, the only remains are the inorganic minerals of the bone, which are dried and processed into a powder for return to the family.
Environmentally Friendly
A gentle process that uses water instead of fire to return a body back to Mother Nature. Using 90% less energy than flame-based cremation. No emissions of harmful greenhouse gases or mercury. The process uses a solution of 95% water and 5% alkaline – It gives peace of mind to those who value sustainability and compassion.
