Discarding a live animal/pet is one thing, but I think there are plenty of folks (including me) who don't fuss over a pet once he/she is dead. I had a cat I adopted from a shelter - a 9 year old toothless, fat cat. That cat slept in my bed, was fed fresh fish for dinner, had every cat toy available, was pet so much I'm surprised her fur didn't chaffe and basked in all the attention I gave her. She was Queen of the House. I spent thousands on stuff like ultra sound biopsies and medication when she developed a liver disorder. She died in my arms. But when she was gone, I got in my car and chucked her out the car window into a wooded area in the middle of nowhere, throwing her toys after her and yelling "I love you!" Surely her body was eaten by animals. I have no guilt. My memories and over 1000 pictures I took of her is my memorial - not a
grave.
Ditto!
That's what I plan on doing when the time comes as well. I'm hoping that is a very long time off though. I agree with everything you said. :clap:
I take it you have labs? I have a black lab and he is my BIG baby!
Well, at 21 years old, renting without property to bury my cat, no local animal shelter and serious credit card debt rung up with big medical bills for treating her condition (something that sounded like "Happatic lipidosis") and her dying as we were getting ready to move, I don't think putting her in the woods was out of line. Ashes to Ashes. I would never harm a living animal or person.Ditto!
Well I certainly won't discuss the incident anymore, but just so we're clear here......I placed my DEAD cat in a remote area in the woods. Not when she was still alive. Obviously, an important clarification (to me at least).
