Cemetery month began last week, but today’s post is anything but spooky. According to Tripadvisor, the number one activity in Kanab, Utah, is a visit to The Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. We didn’t take an outdoor bus tour due to the extreme heat, but we enjoyed learning about the mission, petting some kittens, and buying a t-shirt or two to support the facility. It’s more than just cats and dogs; it’s a whole ranch of rescue animals of all shapes and sizes that have plenty of desert to roam forever, even into eternity. Follow my hooves…
We spent time in the petting place. Mosaic Monday
Volunteer!
As we drove through the sprawling property, we came across the most charming cemetery in the world. If not for the outdoor inferno, I would have taken more photos. Be sure to follow the link at the end of this post to listen to the cemetery wind chimes….
Each grave, for every animal, was decorated with thought and care.
I’ve embedded a link to my Instagram page in the photo above. Please visit and scroll to play my cemetery chimes reel, which is sure to bring you peace. I can’t imagine a better resting place for cats and dogs, and if I could rest amid a field of windchimes, I’d choose that for eternity in a heartbeat. Why don’t human cemeteries adopt this charming chime idea?
Stay spooky and read scary (or at least paranormal sci-fi) books this month! My favorite freaky fiction newsletter is coming up on the 20th! Be sure to sign up on my homepage. I have so much fun with my October newsletter.
Yes, more windchimes in cemeteries.
Beautiful photos. Yes, more windchimes.
The animal cemetery with wind chimes is a beautiful, peaceful idea.
I think I would like to rest under a tree of wind chimes too. Pitty abut the extreme heat during your visit. But it looks cool under the chime tree. Enjoy your week. I am visiting you from Mosaic Monday.
what an original idea.
Autumn, beginning the dark season is our way too to went to the cemetery. And there are rememberings to the special mood in the irish cemeteries.
Thank you so much for sharing at MosaicMonday ❤️
Hello Sharon,
What a wonderful place to visit. It is nice to hold the kitties, cute photo. The wind chimes are lovely.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a wonderful week. PS, thanks for leaving me a comment.
I had that Which Witch game but here it’s called Haunted House. I loved it so much. I still have it but the kids weren’t so into it.
What an interesting place! And yes, more charming chimes for me as well.

Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. ♥
What a great place to visit. I love their cemetery.
Very interesting.
What an awesome cemetery!
What a lovely way to honor/remember the animals. More wind chimes, anywhere, would be excellent. Thank you for linking up and have a great weekend.
Dont really want to think about the time when my cats will need such a place – but given that they will inevitably move on, this would be a great place for them to lie.
cheers, Stewart M – Melbourne
