A memorial video for your cat, any time of year
A cat memorial video is a short tribute made from a photo of your cat. Ours is AI-generated: from one picture, the model draws your cat into a scene and animates it for 10 seconds. It is not real footage and makes no spiritual claim — it is a calm way to see them move again, made for remembering rather than for laughs.
Cats are hard to photograph and harder to film, so many people have only a handful of pictures and almost no video. That is exactly where this helps: one good photo is enough. The scenes come from the Mexican Day of the Dead — candles, marigolds, a home altar — but you can make one any time of year: the day they died, their adoption day, or the first anniversary.

Which scene suits your cat?

Candlelight
Best for most cats. Your cat rests on a soft blanket among candles, breathes slowly, blinks and looks up at you. Quiet rather than festive, and the scene people choose most after a recent loss.

The Ofrenda
Your cat sits beside a candlelit home altar with marigolds and papel picado, ears up as if they just arrived. A digital cat ofrenda for anyone who cannot build a real one.

Marigold Bridge
Your cat walks along a glowing path of marigold petals — slower and more graceful than a dog, tail up. Good for confident, outdoor or very social cats.

A Gentle Guide
Your cat walks through a marigold field beside a glowing Xoloitzcuintli, the Mexican guide dog of souls. A gentle choice for homes where the cat and dog were friends.
Choosing the photo
- A clear face matters most: eyes, whiskers and markings are what make it look like your cat.
- Lying-down or curled-up photos are perfect for Candlelight; sitting photos suit The Ofrenda.
- Photos with the cat looking at the camera give the strongest final look toward you.
- One cat per photo. For two cats, make one video each — the 2+ pets pack covers every scene for both.
Ways to use it
- Share it on the anniversary or on Instagram, TikTok or Facebook — it is vertical 9:16, made for phones.
- Send it to the people who knew your cat: family, the neighbor who fed them, your vet.
- Loop it on a tablet or digital frame beside their photo or urn.
- Make one for a friend who lost their cat — with a photo they chose and their permission.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use an old or low-quality photo of my cat?
Yes, as long as the face is visible. Very dark or blurry photos give the AI less to work with; check the free still preview, and remember each video includes one free re-creation.
Will it really look like my cat?
The AI keeps your cat’s coat, colors and face from the photo, but it is generated imagery, so small details can differ. Tabby stripes and white markings usually come through well.
Is the video sad?
Candlelight is calm rather than sad: warm light, slow breathing, your cat looking at you. If you want something brighter, try Marigold Bridge.
How much does a cat memorial video cost?
The still preview is free once a day. One 10-second video is $9.99; packs for all four scenes or for two pets are on the pricing page. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription.
