I made
him a little grave with a headstone, and planted a salvia plant nearby, which bloomed for weeks, and will bloom every spring as long as it's there. I know it seems kind of morbid and weird, but I like thinking that he's sort of still nearby, that his bits have become "reincarnated" as part of my yard. -- L. That's not morbid or weird at all. I think it's a very sweet reminder that your Nozzler still lives on in your memories. Sherry |

I buried my big orange cat Nozzler, who died last year, in my back yard, and I'm glad I did.

This is what I did with each of my cats, except that I planted a tree for each cat. The trees mark their final resting spots, and I also think of the trees as living memorials to my wonderful friends. It did not even bother me when I moved to another house and had to leave them behind because they are now a permanent part of their environment -- part of the continuum of life and death. MaryL |

Same here. We have buried all of our pets in our yards with some type
of memorial. My first cat had a blue azaela that reminded me of her eyes. Unfortunately, the azaela did really well for a couple years and then died. I have been meaning to go get another one. My dog got an apple tree. She was a wonderful dog, loved puppies and kittens, and would have been a good mother. She never had her own. Good thing too, since she went blind at age 9 with a genetic problem. But we had always planned to get a puppy for her, so the apple tree was a symbolic way for her to bear fruit. That was 8 years ago, and that tree has been blossoming every year. We've lived at our current home for over 15 years, and we have 5 cats and 3 dogs buried here. Nobody walking in would ever know it, but we know where they all are. So do we, under a big tree in the back yard that I keep a circle of flowers around. We have an uncle who is in the cemetery monument business, and he engraved their names on river rocks. Any monument place will usually do that for you. Sherry |
