O...Ok and It's not my fault I'm a little slow

No no you're not slow don't say that :P That's not how I meant it, anyway. It just seemed obvious to me, but it clearly wasn't obvious to you and that's ok considering what you just came home to

[Roxyluvsme13]

Your not slow hon, you just lost a pet and now came home to see it dug up, I am 44 and I would be traumatized by that. Just take a deep breath.

Thanks...but to be honest I am a little on the slow side LOL But anyways *DEEP BREATH*

Then what do they do with their ashes if they arent in an urn?? I really dont like cremating, but then I would have her with me...

Well, with the place we use, the ashes are returned in a sealed bag if you don't buy an urn. Sometimes I pay for the little wooden boxes they sell, sometimes I have purchased an urn from somewhere else. I wear part of Hoodoo's ashes in a pendant. I've scattered some of ashes in special spots. There are lots of options.

I don't believe they can take the pet to a landfill, at lease not here where I live. Most likely they would cremate her and dispose of the ashes.

That's what they do with the bodies here if they are left at the clinic. There's a section at the landfill just for that purporse.

Aww OK...I'm still not sure what we'll do...Is there ANYTHING you can do besides cremating or burying her?

Nope they definitely take them to the landfill. I think thats terrible, so THAT is not an option.

Well there are pet cemetaries but your talking a lot of money for that.

Well like I said -- get a small metal box, bury her deeper than you did the first time (wild animals are more likely to dig up shallow graves) and then place large stones ontop and all around so there is no possibility of her being dug back up

I dont have a metal box...and I REALLY dont want to bury her again... But I guess I'll have to...the Funny thing is...We dont have a shovel, and we dug her grave the first time with a spoon...

[caseysmom]

Okay so that is why she got dug up, she needs to be buried at least 2 feet down, you need to go buy a shovel and a metal box.

If thats what you want why don't you go do it?

[AllAmericanPUP]

ozzy dug up one of my cats awhile ago, i buried him again and put a heavy block of cement over it and he never touched it again.

you just need to bury her deeper, buy or borrow a shovel(someone you know has to have a shovel)
