Precious and unique keepsake
I had seen this item in a catalog a few years back, mentioned it to my husband, then forgot about it.<br /><br />In August my Maltese, Milo, with whom I had been practically inseparable from for the eight years he was with us (he was a rescue) got pancreatitis and never really recovered. When he stopped eating we decided to just keep him comfortable. Husband told me to order the kit, which came the next day.<br /><br />We made the nose mold. The kit says the putty sets "fast" so we felt a little panic. It does set quickly but not crazy fast. It would be nice if they mentioned roughly the time you have.<br /><br />Milo passed the next day, Nov 22. I mailed the kit out the next morning and got it back exactly one week later, yesterday.<br /><br />There is an option to get more than one medallion made (the paperwork says to call the company) and I did not, but now I wish I did. It's irreplaceable and I'm nervous about losing it. A spare in my jewelry box would have been nice. Get a second one.<br /><br />The directions were easy to follow, although not easy to read. The print was very small and the contrast between the ink and the paper was slight. They need to tweak the instruction form. Larger font, darker ink.
