Is this plan for a deceased pet creepy?

Some people preserve their pets through taxidermy, some keep their ashes, others bury them. I think you can even make a diamond out of their ashes now.

Assume you have a pet with exceptionally soft, shiny and well-kept fur. Is the idea of having something made out of that fur (I have no idea what. An hand muff?) as a reminder of a beloved pet a nice idea or rather disturbing?
