I prefer to bury but sometimes wild animals dig them up. Today I found a dead cat under my deck,really wanted to bury the lil guy but all the maggots crawling on him and the smell had me dry heaving. Had to spray him with bu killer to get rid of the maggots(eyes,nose mouth...) it was a horror show !! I had to wear gloves and a mask and bags to keep them from crawling on me,then tuck my pant legs in my shoes. Eating my macaroni salad was a lil nauseating after that. Once I see all the maggots gone I'm going to try another burial with heavy rocks on top and around him in the ground.

I have all my dogs cremated , horses buried , or given to the sled dog people depending how the horse dies. Some people think i'm nasty for giving my horses to mushers ! I think if it goes to a rendering plant its going to end up in dog food any way. Why pay to have it put down , they come take care of it all. Costs lots a cash to put a horse down an bury it, and some places its against the law to bury them.

If you put moth *bleep* in the hole while burying the animal it might help. I've heard that a lot but never did it. We have our animals cremated.

I have a pet cemetery in my backyard. so sad, I tell my kids to put me there as well.
-
My pets get buried. Other dead animals I put in field behind our house so the turkey vultures have something to eat...or any other animals that eat carrion.
-
I know people who have cremated their animals after they died. It is just a way they stay close to the animal :)
-
I've done both: Cremate and bury them.

First animal I ever buried here was a Midget kitten I found who was cut by something,she was suffering and all her blood was becoming puss,she died right after I found her.Cleaned her up,wrapped her in a hand towel,put her in a shoebox and buried.
-
I've only had them buried in boxes.
-
We had our last dog cremated. We had him for 16 years and he was like a part of our family. All of our other animals were buried when they passed away.
-
My past animals have been buried. I currently have a peek-a-poo and boxer - really considering cremation for both.
-
I don't have any pets so don't have to worry about this but if I did they would get buried.
-
All of our dead pets are buried in the back lot of my in-laws house. It's a regular pet cemetery.
-
My pets will always be cremated. We have the ashes of three dogs in our house.
On a side note, I've seen maggots crawling in and out of the skin of a live dog. I thought they only fed on dead flesh. :-X
-
I have always buried mine, I give them respect..
-
I have some in my freezer because we don't have a place to bury them but it really all matters what pet it was that died.
our furry pets we like to bury but fish and similar pets go in the trash
-
We bury all our pets. There is a pet cementary in our area, the pet goes into a casket and get buried with a small prayer said. Then then are given a headstone. I know some people will laugh or think I’m stupid, but I don’t care. They are part of my family and I love them. I don’t mind the expense of doing this.
-
We've buried all pets... though it is illegal here.
Our last two dogs we had cremated & they are in little wooden urns in our dining room hutch.
-
We put all our little hamsters, gerbils and even a parakeet into the boxes that paper checks come in from the bank and buried the box. Our cat we just put in a hole in the ground underneath the tree in our backyard.
-
When one of my children pet would die, we would bury them in the back yard.

We bury our pets

We always buried our pets. We have a big field out back so all of them are buried out there. Kind of weird now that I think of it, it is like we have a pet cemetery in our back yard. :neutral:
