A World-Famous Pet Cemetery


The Hartsdale Pet Cemetery just north of New York City, has been open since 1896 and is the final resting place for 85,000 animals. Dogs and cats may make up the majority of pets buried here, but the cemetery also has horses, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even a lion cub buried on its grounds.

The gravestones -- some funny, some sweet, some sad -- are a reminder of the love between animals and their people. "Only a dog could be so true," reads one; another describes the dog as his owner's "only friend".

And while it may be Halloween, this pet cemetery isn't the stuff of horror movies; it's just a peaceful place filled with a lot of love.
