I'm worrying about
KFC's body. Where is it? Did she get thrown into a landfill site, get
cremated or what? What happened after she was pts (murdered as some would say) Why didn't I get her back to bury her in the place she loved? Ask the RSPCA who paid to have her put down or Mr Barrajo might know where she is, he wielded the death needle after all. Tweed |

You could even place a permanent marker with her name on it if you would like to do that, although I have always used only the living memorial without a marker. That gives you something special in her memory and also replenishes our environment. MaryL |

Ask the RSPCA who paid to have her put down or Mr Barrajo might know where she is, he wielded the death needle after all. Sometimes its best not to worry about things we cannot know and cannot help. Here they would follow the health department requirement to cremate remains. Unless specific instructions are given otherwise, the ashes are comingled and disposed of. At this late date, and most likely my the time you were even home from the hospital, what was done, was done. Maybe you could ease some of your pain if you were to plant a bush or tree in her memory?

Tweed I understand mass cremations are the norm in the UK for animals PTS (or murdered) where the owner hasn't asked for the body to be returned. When Rosie was PTS I didn't collect her body until the next day, I was too upset, and was told this would have happened if I hadn't picked her up that day. -- Adrian (Owned by Snoopy, Bagheera & Shadow) Cats leave pawprints on your heart http://community.webshots.com/user/clowderuk |

Tweed Somehow, I thought you got KFC's body back from that ******* who brutally murdered her. That's the way *I* see it, anyway. I'm so sorry to hear that you don't know what happened to KFC. It would really, really bother me, too. I would bet that she was cremated; that is what is normally done, because it's clean and makes for permanent disposal. Animal bodies can't be put in a land fill, here in the USA, and I'm sure it's the same everywhere in the industrialized world. It sure would have been nice if you could have at least gotten her ashes, after this terrible experience I think the only possible way to look at this, so you don't just go crazy, is that KFC DID live a very long, full life, first as a semi feral, for so long, and then as your beloved companion. Her time was growing very short; she had many close calls with serious illnesses, which you managed to rescue her from with vet care, and all of the effort and hard work you went to, to keep her eating. Most people, myself included, would have decided that it would be impossible to manage to provide for the quality of life which YOU managed to give her, quite some time ago. I remember so vividly, when she was o very sick, a year ago last spring, when you were only hoping that through some miracle, she could hold on for one more summer with you. Well, she did, and a year past that spring, due to all your expense and very hard work. Try to think about that, rather than what happened to her when you couldn't possible be there to protect her. Without your care, she would have gone to the Bridge a long, long time ago. That's what's really important, don't you think? I certainly do. Every time KFC suffered a setback for the past year, I was sure her time was up. Each time, I was wrong. You gave her so much more time that she wouldn't have had, if almost anyone but you were taking care of her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^..^ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

Nearly as I can tell, we don't have an option here aside from cremation. I asked for Tuppence's remains to bury (before I realized that I couldn't put her here, the outies would dig her up), and was told they could return her ashes, but I couldn't leave with her body. I wasn't thinking straight enough to ask why not. |

What happened after she was pts (murdered as some would say) Not that it will make you feel any better about her loss, but if the UK is like the U.S., she was probably cremated. In any case, does it really MATTER what becomes of earthly remains (feline OR human), once the soul has gone on to better things? (I realize there are those who claim that animals - other than humans - do not HAVE souls, but I doubt whether any of us on rpca are among them.) Personally (as I once informed a telemarketer for Forest Lawn in California), after I've abandoned my fleshly envelope, they could throw it in a ditch somewhere for all I'd care. (Actually I told the telemarketer I'd prefer that to being planted in Forest Lawn!) To save my nearest and dearest from making expensive decisions, I've arranged with the Neptune Society for prepaid cremation and scattering at sea. |

I don't think you are going to have any peace until you go talk to the vet.
Until you sit down and try to get answers, you will stay angry. That anger may never go away but she can't be happy at the Bridge until you are settled here. Go and have that talk.
