That’s very touching.
It makes me feel that we should have done something similar for our first two cats who died and, to my shame, we just asked the vet to dispose of their bodies.
On the other hand, I suppose they wouldn’t have known anything about it.
As I think I’ve said before, funerals are for the living rather than the dead.

I am so sorry…what an awful thing to go through. Losing a pet is a family loss. How is Nemo?
Still wandering the house like a little tabby ghost - but he has stopped ‘calling’ for her. Even though I have washed all the cat beds he will not sleep in any of them yet.

Cats are indeed more intelligent than we realise.

Do you think he knows? I’m sure he must…poor wee soul.
Yes, Pixie, he was with us on the sofa when she died in my arms - and I made sure he had a good look.

Y’know, I’m so glad you said that Tabby. He gets closure at least - it won’t stop the grief, but at least he isn’t left wondering where his best friend went off to suddenly…

I might do that for our two cats, though hopefully it will not be for a long time as they are quite young.
Of course, I’d have to go down on my knees to persuade Marge to give up a small area of her garden, though she could also replant a plant on top of their grave(s).
Does that include horses Muddy?
Sadly no .
