Hyde Park Pet Cemetery, Pet cemetery in Hyde Park, London, England
The cemetery contains approximately 300 small marble headstones with inscriptions marking the final resting places of Victorian pets near Victoria Lodge.
Starting in 1881 with Cherry, a Maltese terrier, the cemetery grew into a burial ground for pets of London aristocrats until its closure in 1903.
The cemetery reflects the Victorian era relationship between humans and pets through emotional inscriptions such as 'Dear Impy - Loving and Loved'.
The Royal Parks organization arranges special viewings for groups of up to 6 people at a cost of £60, including value added tax.
Three small monkeys and several birds rest among the numerous dogs and cats, with one grave belonging to a dog named Scum remaining unmarked.
