As the title says, I need to bury a kitty that has been dead for an unknown amount of time.
See, I was looking for my cat, which was outside, and saw one running past a shed. I figured it was mine, and realized he hadn't eaten in a while, so I threw some clothes on, and walked outside. I ran toward the shed, and saw my cat nowhere's in sight, so I began to investigate. I glanced around, in the bushes, and started over towards the shed, which is slightly raised off the ground. I start to get on my hands a knees when I notice some little paws coming from underneath. As I get closer, I notice a cat.
Sitting on top of a couple of broken cinder blocks was the body of a cat; I couldn't see the face, as it was turned in the opposite direction of me, but I could clearly tell it was dead. The stomach was caved in, and the fur was pattered with dirt. The body was eroded into the ground, showing it had been there for a while; there patches of tall grass all around it frail body. I looked in horror, and was startled at first, but I stayed calm, and continued to look around for my cat.
Eventually, I found my cat, but my mind has stayed on the other one. the people who own the shed, and assumed, cat, are very recluse, and I rarely see them outside. I feel its my sworn duty to bury the body, yet, the time frame is the problem; all the diseases, bacteria and such. Also, the people who live their are not to kind, and that could also fester into a problem.
So, any thoughts?
Put on gloves if you have a problem with it..Make sure to still wash your hands.
is it really that hard? put on some gloves or something if your really feel like you need to do this
:saddowns:
Use gloves.
Gloves, Cat into plastic bag. Then bag into shoebox then into ground then much tears etc. I have done this before by the way.
Do it ASAP otherwise it will smell REAL bad and you most likely will not want to.
Maybe scoop the little kitty into a garbage bag, and continue to bury it's body without touching it.
Make sure the body hasn't become bloated. Those fuckers can pop.
Just wash your hands afterward, you'll be fine.
About the neighbors, I would leave a note on their door saying you found their cat (if it's theirs) and that you buried it, and that you're sorry about what happened to it.
It is illegal to bury animals in the city.
Take it to the vet they will deal with it.

If you were smart...
You would realize in the city according to law, you cannot bury an animal there, you either must pay to have it buried in a grave yard for animals, or have it disposed of by the vet. (If you really want to know, the vet pretty much throws them in a dump-garbage-like-area for animals)

It's a damn dead cat, get over yourself. Throw it away, better than rotting and you staring at it.
Eat it.
Stomp on its head barefoot and squish the guts between your toes. FEEL the gore.
What the fuck...
Just dig a deep hole in your backyard and carry the cat over with a shovel. If you're paranoid about laws regarding burying dead animals then do it at night.
