    A blessing is a blessing, no matter the faith. Go with your friend or find another ceremony. Do one yourself or invite some friends together to bless your pets.

    The Feast of St. Francis was on October 4th, which is when many pets are blessed.

    I really should get mine blessed, but mine also do not travel well.

    That is so nice, and the certificate is a nice idea. Many of the Catholic churches around here have a special time for the blessing of the pets, around the Feast of St. Francis. I have never taken my cats, as I can't imagine having a cat (or mulitples) in a carrier and the people around me having dogs on leashes. Something tells me that is just not a good mix.

    It is not just cats and dogs. People bring small mammals, birds, reptiles, and even a few goats and pot bellied pigs mix in. There is always an announcement in the paper before hand, and often a photo follow up the day after. I don't envy the church clean up crew after such a Mass!

    I agree with Catmandu, I also believe they are all blessed. I have St. Francis medals on the collar for each cat, along with the ID tag. On one side of the medal is a depiction of St. Francis surrounded by animals. On the other side is a picture of a kitty angel and around the kitty angel is says: "God Bless My Cat." I get them on ebay. There are several different types available. The ones I get are silver tone, and say "Cat" not "Pet" (too generic). I think they are about $6 each. Crystal keeps losing hers, no idea how. I now have 3 for her; they eventually show up, just "miraculously appear" in the middle of the floor. She must have a secret stash somewhere!
