Very wierd Question

[krystalirelan@southslope.]

we have a ferret 3 hermit crabs 2 goldfish and a betta in my flower bed. We find an approprate box and dig a hole and sing amazing grace. My oldest picked the song. our services have been as small as just the 4 of us to half the neighborhood gathered around and Grandma on the phone.

Haven't had a pet die in a while thank goodness, but when I was little our old duplex had a trio of kittens (sad story, one from the SPCA had an illness and passed it to our two others), a few snakes, and a couple fish. They all had individual graves with markers and a nice little garden around them. I was really sad when we moved and had to leave them...

In the summer, I just dig a hole and throw it in. In the winter, my pets have usually been stuffed in a plastic bag, placed in a box and then thrown in the bin.

Haven't lost any snakes yet.

Moving and leaving them behind is why I cremate most of my pets. But for snakes, I have this prairie - about a half acre of prairie plants that we encourage - and I bury them there. I think it is an area they would like.

Mostly I put them in the freezer.
I do not know why, because most of the time I do nothing with them.

my ideal is burial, but I lack opportunity
we still have the ashes of a cat that died in '99 in a box, meaning to bury them someplace or at least toss them in the wind some nice place
with that in mind, smaller animals have ended up in the bin after after a few weeks in the freezer
once we move things may change

Why do you guys freeze them?

[Snaky]

It's probably to be able to do a dissection afterwards. That way you might still learn something about the animal or the death of the animal.

i used to boil them to remove all flesh etc so that i could keep the skulls. my wife made me get rid of them all though so now my garden is 1 big pet cemetary.
