Hello FBM. This can be a tricky situation. My daughter was living in a rented flat until recently. She had 4 hammies in her times there. We buried all 4, one by one, in a decent sized pot with rose bush in it. Each time we lifted the plant and added another furry. We have a garden but she did not want to bury them here. She wanted them with her once she had her permanent home. The pot went to her only this summer.
Perhaps your mother would have a pot like that outside in her garden while you can't.
This gave me the idea to do the same. I have one pot for each hamster and if we ever move, after 30 years here! - then my boys can come with me. Only my daughter's childhood pets would be left behind but that was a long time ago now.
