Pets
The idea of Special Moment Mosaics is to celebrate life's most cherished moments, and that includes the bond with a beloved pet. Living or passed, a custom pet mosaic offers a unique way to immortalize these family members.
It’s definitely true that we’re a nation of animal lovers – but have you ever wondered how many pets there actually are in the UK? It’s really revealing.
PDSA is the vet charity for pets in need and every year they produce a report, together with YouGov, to survey the UK’s pet owners and find out all about the wellbeing of our pets. According to the latest findings in the 2024 PDSA Animal Wellbeing (PAW) Report, they can accurately estimate the number of pet dogs, cats, and rabbits in the UK.
· 51% of UK adults own a pet
28% of UK adults have a dog - an estimated population of 10.6 million pet dogs
24% of UK adults have a cat - an estimated population of 10.8 million pet cats
2% of UK adults have a rabbit - an estimated population of 800,000 pet rabbits

What Makes a Pet Mosaic Special?
If you’re like me, you constantly photograph your pet in all sorts of daily situations. But have you ever thought of having one amazing mosaic photo, created with hundreds of those images—perhaps of your family, your holiday, or treasured moments with your pet—custom made to form a stunning portrait of your beloved animal. From a distance, the mosaic looks like a detailed image of your pet, but up close, you’ll find layers of memories within every tile. It’s not just one photograph on display—it’s a visual story of your shared experiences.
How the Process Works
Ordering a pet mosaic through Special Moment Mosaics is straightforward and personalised. I am always available to offer help and advice and to guide you through the process when choosing the main image and the additional photos for the smaller tiles. Whether you choose the Standard Mosaic, where every part of the portrait is filled with small images, or the Layered Mosaic, which keeps your main image ‘unmosaiced’, while the background is filled with memories, the result is always stunning.

The mosaics are available as digital files, prints, or high-quality canvas pieces, ensuring they look stunning in any home setting.
Why Choose a Mosaic for Your Pet?
Emotional Connection: Each mosaic tells the story of your pet and family, making it more than just a decorative piece.
Customization Options: With choices in print formats—such as canvas, foam board, and photographic paper—you’ll receive a high-quality piece that suits your needs.
Durability and Timelessness: A mosaic portrait doesn’t fade with trends or time. It’s a tribute that can be cherished for generations.
Testimonials and Real-World Impact
