About

We are a local, family owned and operated business, who as animal lovers truly understand that the passing of a pet, is like losing a precious family member.  Pet Cremation is just one way to honour your best mate, who we know has always been there for you, right till the end.

​

Paws for Thought (formerly Paws & Claws) is run by Tracey and Billy (alongside their kennels and cattery business) and has been operating under the watchful gaze of Mt Taranaki since 2014.

​

Located in the peaceful Egmont Village, Paws for Thought is dedicated to serving families in need during the most difficult time of being a pet owner. We offer a full pick up (collection from all North Taranaki Vet Clinics) and drop-off service for cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rodents, reptiles, birds and other small pets at our onsite crematorium.

​

With Paws for Thought, you can be certain that your pet stays in Taranaki and has dignified, respectful care while with us.
