    Very amusing. I wish I was that funny.

    If you had read my posts you would see that I buried a cat on private land, myself.
    However, had I known that it was not strictly legal and that the city council would have disposed of the cat for me, I would have availed of the service.

    Cats dead, cat's gone, lets move on.
    Cat & tread is dead.
    I done whats best in the circumstances.
    Given the warm weather.

    Person (owner) who fead the (stray) said it wasn't his, he only fed it for years !! :confused:

    Why does everything be so argumentative here, I took responsibility for a situation that I wasn't responsible for and made the best judgment in the little time I had to sort it.

    I asked for advice, got condemnation without any useful telephone numbers or links.
    And caring advice and funny advice, which is all good and adds to the discussion.

    Would all stone throwers be willing to except the next dead cat ?
    I dought it !!!!!!



    See ya

    End of this discussion from me.

    Well, the first reply you got was to contact a vet - without knowing where you are, it seems a bit much to expect people to provide you with phone numbers.

    The condemnation started when you decided that you didn't want to do the responsible thing and bury the cat instead.

    But yes, next time you find a dead cat, please do bring it round. I work with an animal charity, we often get called to dead animals (usually victims of traffic), and our first step is always to contact a vet to find out if we can locate an owner who might want to know what happened. If not, the vet disposes of the body.

    If it's a big cat it can take quite a bit to wrap it up.

    If it's a labrador, I wouldn't be rushing off to bury it - they taste like lamb apparently:
