What you send and what happens next
Choose a finish, enter the wording for the base and add 1 to 5 clear photos on this page, or tick “I’ll send photos after ordering” and email them to hello@ripleysnest.co.uk with your order number. Start with a sharp front view in natural light, then add side angles. Blurred or heavily filtered pictures can hide the features that make your pet look like themselves.
We review your pictures and email a design proof to your checkout email before making begins. Up to two rounds of changes are included. If the design is still not right, a refund is available before we start making it.

Product details
A custom pet bust is a portrait in sculpture: your dog, cat or other pet, sculpted from the photos you send and finished by hand. About 18 cm tall, it suits a shelf, desk or mantel, and the name or short line you choose is engraved on the base at no extra cost. It can celebrate the pet beside you now, or be a keepsake in memory of a much-loved pet. See all our pet portrait sculptures from photos.
Made to order
Made to order from your photos in our Lake District studio. Pieces made from a photo take the longer of the two dispatch times shown beside the price, counted once we have everything we need from you.
As a gift
A thoughtful birthday or Christmas present for a friend or family member who adores their pet. The gift option lets you send the photos later, or you can post them a custom pet bust gift voucher so they choose the photos themselves.
Care
Keep it indoors. Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid long spells of direct sunlight and do not soak it.
Questions
Is it a sculpture or a flat picture?
A sculpted portrait with depth, made from your photographs. Dogs, cats and other pets can be made when the photos show enough detail.
Which photos work best?
A sharp front view in natural light first, then side angles. Blurred or heavily filtered pictures can hide important features.
Will I see it before you make it?
Yes. We email a design proof before making begins, and up to two rounds of changes are included.
How big is it?
About 18 cm (7.1 in) tall, a comfortable size for a shelf or mantel. Width and depth follow your pet’s shape; one photo shows a bust held beside a dog for scale.

Absolutely in love with the cat busts I ordered, the communication was amazing and any small amendments I asked for were changed to the exact likeness without any issue. I couldn’t be happier!

We had to say goodbye to our little fur baby earlier this year and I wanted something special to remember her by. I actually teared up when I opened the box. Now she sits on our shelf and I give her head a little pet every time I walk past.
I was worried she’d end up looking like a generic cat, especially as I really wanted them to capture her little sassy head tilt, but they absolutely nailed it! It looks just like her from her ears and eyes to her tiny button nose.
I’m so happy with it. If you’re looking for a pet memorial or just a different kind of pet portrait, I’d 100% recommend this. I’m already looking at the Viking/Caesar busts…. Which might accidentally become my husbands Christmas present (mostly just a gift for myself with a reason for it 😂)
Thank you so much!!!Steffie, July 2026

She made a little mistake on the first one and was wonderful to communicate with and work with. Would use her again!!!

Fantastic detail and quality
Ordered a bust of our recently passed, much loved Labrador. The quality and likeness is incredible and even though the sadness is still very much there, it brings us comfort to see it everyday.
