    when I lost my best friend she was cremated (not with other bodies on her own because I did not want her being mixed up with other animals) and she is now in a beautiful urn

    it cost a **** load more than I think most people would pay for

    but it was worth it 100% she saved my life over and over and the thought of her just being tossed away made me/makes me *kitten* sick

    great now im going to cry

    Honestly, with my animals, I would shoot them myself and bury them myself on my land. Free.

    But it's not about the money AT ALL. I think it's more special/respectable to do the deed myself and of course give them a proper burial. Some won't understand.

    I am not comfortable with cremation.

    When the time comes, I think I will bury my dog in the backyard.

    We cremated two cats we've lost. Mass graves make me so sad. Yes, it was costly but not so much that for us it broke the bank.

    Pet fish get flushed.
    Pet birds get thrown out in the trash.
    Pet Cats and Dogs get buried in the garden.
    Ex-wives get buried in the basement.

    Oh my, this is funny!

    We have our own septic system and since we don't like flushing non-waste material my husband decided to throw our dead goldfish (who committed suicide btw) out into the yard. We walked outside the next morning and the damn cat had "hunted" it and left on our doorstep. :huh: :laugh:

    We have both of our dogs, who we had for 10 and 13 years, buried in our back yard. We are hopefully living on our forever property but in the case we do move I'm hoping to come visit their graves every now and then anyway.
