I gotta say, it's pretty cool that Barcelona is getting a public pet cemetery 
... it's like they're acknowledging that our pets are more than just furry friends, you know? I mean, think about it - we spend so much time and love with them in our lives, but when they pass away, it's like, what do we do? Do we just forget about them? No way! 
But seriously, it's interesting that historian Eric Tourigny talks about how gravestones and epitaphs have changed over time. I mean, in the past, pets were often written up on gravestones like they were humans, which is actually really sweet

I think this is all part of our growing understanding of human-animal relationships
... we're learning that our feelings for animals are valid and important. And who knows? Maybe one day we'll see more pet-friendly cemeteries popping up everywhere!
