Equivalent of RIP.ie for pets is 'adorably tragic' but there's a twist for grieving owners

An Irish, TikTok creator has discovered a version of RIP.ie but for your pets. 

This discovery came from the traction the creator made to a recent video where he said "people don't take pets dying seriously enough."

The creator then thought why not set up an RIP.ie version for pets, to then discover a Dublin company already did. 

Paws in Peace, is the pet version of RIP.ie and it is adorably tragic.

Ronan Mitchell said: "I put up that TikTok saying about how people need to take pets dying more seriously and people were grieving their pets in my comments. I felt that, respect that, RIP. I then thought there was a bit of a market here like. There is a lot of grieving pet owners. I will fu**ing set up an RIP.ie for pets. It is one of the busiest websites in Ireland, I will do it for pets. Then I found someone in Swords, Dublin set it up. I have never had an original thought in my life."
