🤍 Supporting you with gentle veterinary care, every step of the way 🤍

At Cherry Tree, we work closely alongside some truly wonderful veterinary professionals who offer home euthanasia, as well as caring vets who support families here at our calm, homely clinic.

To make things easier at what can be a very difficult time, we’ve just updated the veterinary section of our website, making it simple to find trusted vets and understand the gentle options available whether that’s at home or here with us at Cherry Tree.

We hope this helps bring reassurance, clarity and comfort when it’s needed most.

🤍 New at Cherry Tree 🤍

We’ve recently received these Frame Impressions as samples and wanted to share them with you.

They’re designed to hold a favourite photo alongside your pets paw print. Creating a simple but very personal keepsake for remembering a much loved pet.

We’d really love to know what you think, would this be something you’d find comforting to have at home, either on its own or alongside an urn?

Your feedback genuinely helps us decide what to offer families in the future 🤍

❌ Horse cremation service ❌

When choosing a dignified individual cremation service for your horse don’t just compare prices, but also compare the level of service.

What makes cherry tree different.

✅ We carry out cremations on our own premises.

✅ Kent’s only dedicated individual only pet and equine crematorium.

✅ Established for 25 years

✅ We only collect one horse at a time and return directly to cherry tree. (No collection rounds)

✅ Cremations are carried out on the same day or the following working day.

✅ We have our own temperature controlled room for horses, should cremation not be carried out the same day.

✅ Ashes preparation are carried out to the same standards as a human crematorium.

✅ Your horse is normally ready to come home within 2-3 working days.

✅ One of our three horse vehicles can normally be with you within 2 hours of your call 7 days a week.

✅ We are a bespoke crematorium for pets and horses and not for fallen stock.

✅ Cherry tree’s cremation facilities behind the scenes are renowned for being one of the best in the country. 

✅ We are proud of our crematorium facilities, and regularly share photos and videos for openness and transparency.

✅ We know the comfort it brings owners to come to cherry tree to collect horses ashes.

✅ All our horse cremations are carried out individually and not low cost mass incineration or disposal.

When the time comes we care.

🤍 Coping with Pet Loss at Christmas 🤍

🎄Christmas can be a joyful time, but for those who have lost a beloved pet, it can also feel especially hard. The quiet spaces, familiar routines and traditions can all serve as reminders of just how much they are missed. If this is your first Christmas without them, please know that how you’re feeling is completely normal and you’re not alone.

There’s no right or wrong way to grieve, but some people find comfort in lighting a candle, creating a small memorial, talking with someone who understands, or simply allowing themselves time and space away from the festivities when needed. It’s also okay to change traditions or create new ones that honour the love you shared.

Grief is the price we pay for love and that love never goes away.

From all of us at Cherry Tree Pet Crematorium, we’re thinking of anyone missing a much-loved companion this Christmas and sending you warmth, comfort and understanding 🤍🐾

Lovely Testimonial from our client: Les Biggs

I would just like to say what a service this company provides, they treated us well and explained everything in detail, our Pet Dog “Sid” could not have asked or barked for a better send off. They’re well recommended and speak to us all with CARE too.

Thank you Les for your lovely words about Sid’s journey with in our care. Sending you our condolences from us all at Cherry Tree.

🤍 A gentle but important reminder for pet owners 🤍

From time to time, we receive calls from owners who contact Cherry Tree believing their veterinary practice uses our local, family-owned cremation service and their pet is in our care, only for us to have to gently explain that their surgery doesn’t use cherry tree.

What makes this especially sad is that many of these owners have already agreed to cremation arrangements without being given clear details about where, when, or who will be caring for their beloved pet. At such an emotional time, peace of mind is so important knowing that your pet is in safe, caring hands and understanding when they are likely to come home.

The moment of losing a pet is overwhelming. Thinking clearly, asking questions, or making rational decisions can be incredibly difficult which is why we believe it’s vital for owners to be properly informed and supported when options are discussed.

We gently encourage all pet owners to:
• ✅ Ask which crematorium will be used
• ✅ Ask where and when your pet will be taken and how far they will travel
• ✅ Ask whether the cremation is individual
• ✅ Ask how long it will be before your pet comes home

Better still, if you have a preferred crematorium, you can put this in place in advance, so your wishes are known when the time comes.

Being informed helps bring reassurance at one of life’s hardest moments. Your pet deserves the very best care, and you deserve peace of mind.

🤍 Local. Family-owned. Individual care always.

If you’d like to know more or have any questions, we are always here to talk.

✨ A very special Cherry Tree evening ✨

Last night we headed out for our Cherry Tree Christmas meal at the Red Lion, Charing Heath and what a truly lovely evening it was.

We are incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such a supportive, dedicated team who go above and beyond throughout the year to make Cherry Tree what it is. It was wonderful to spend some relaxed time together away from work, sharing good food, laughter and plenty of memories.

We were also delighted to be joined by friends of Cherry Tree, Ian and Mee from Farewell Friend, Juana from Pet home farewell, Loraine from Time 2 Say Goodbye, and Karim from KFS along with our fantastic Cherry Tree team and their partners. Thank you all for coming and for being part of what made the evening so special.

A huge thank you to everyone for their continued hard work, care and commitment throughout the year it truly doesn’t go unnoticed and is very much appreciated.

And finally… the secret Santa certainly turned out to be one not to be forgotten 😄 which also explains why some photos will definitely be staying off social media!

Thank you all for a wonderful evening and for everything you do 🤍

Megan Allen - Monty

My boy, boozy, Monters, Montgomery it’s hard to believe that such a larger than life character is no longer here. You gave us almost 14 years of love, laughter and naughtiness (but we secretly loved you for it).
You lived quite the adventure moving to different homes with us, escaping numerous times as you loved the thrill and thought it was a game, but were always happy to come home and snuggle up to one of us or have a foot to chest rub. For a dog that was wild and at times socially awkward you had the sweetest little soul and got us through hard times. We will miss you forever and you were and still are, very loved. Hope you are happy over the rainbow bridge, no longer in pain and continuing to be your cheeky beautiful self . Thank you for everything and thank you to Cherry Tree for looking after our boy, giving him his last moments and send off with a lot of peace and respect.
Until we meet again, we love you Monty ❤️
