Pet parents love their pets and spend a lot of money on them. They buy them food and toys, and pay high fees for medical treatment. Some people think this is a waste of time and money, but owners never think so. After all positive effects and great things pets bring to our lives, they deserve to be loved and treated like kids.
Recently, a nursing assistant loves her cat so much that she pays 5000$ to have her dead cat Tango stuffed. Everyone says she is wasting money on a horrifying thing, but she says it’s the best money she's ever spent.

The nursing assistant named Harriet Peace shared that her cat Tango was like her child. Therefore, when he was hit by a car and passed away, she was devastated. She couldn't bear the thought of him being buried or cremated, so she decided to have her cat preserved in a curled-up sleeping position. She thinks that it is "the perfect way for him to be with her forever."

In order to stuff Tango, she bunged Tango in the freezer to prevent him from decaying and then sent him from Scotland to London-based taxidermy business Get Stuffed. At first, she worried about her decision, but when she went to pick Tango up, all her fears dissipated and she knew she did the right thing. The cat is now preserved forever in a sleeping position with his eyes closed.

Harriet said: "I was really nervous when I dropped him off because I was worried he would look different and I would have made the wrong decision. But when I picked him up it was all worth it. He looks so realistic. He's exactly how he was and I'm so happy I have him here to remember him."

"Everyone jumps to the conclusion it is disgusting or degrading or prevents an animal from being at peace, but it's done very respectfully. If you had the chance to have your pet preserved how it was before for the rest of your life, wouldn't you do it? It is the best decision I ever could have made, " she added.

She continued: "You hear a lot of bad things, and it costs a lot of money, so I was worried. But as soon as I walked in and saw him sitting with all the other cats I just knew he was absolutely perfect. Tango is exactly how he was. It's not for everyone but honestly, I couldn't thank the man who did it enough. After losing my best friend, it's the best gift anyone could give me. It's the best decision I ever made."
