Pet Shrines were inspired by a trip to the country of Mauritius where the Hindu Shrines stand as tall at 108 feet! Seeing how they honored animals, music, nature...the experience remained with me and inspired small pet shrines that each offer a special place to burn an incense cone or place a small item in each one that is special to you. Several of the Pet Shrines have a place for a plant, flowers or anything you wish to place in the water tight area behind the shrine.
