Question for the group
"Margarita Salt" wrote in message
... Should he have said, "I found a dead cat and buried it," or is keeping an old lady's hopes up that the cat is well and happy the right thing to do? He should have been honest. Death is a part of life, and it is silly for us to try to avoid it by using euphemisms such as "pts," "passed away," "passed on," "crossed the Rainbow Bridge," etc. In the last couple of years, I have encountered the corpse of a cat in the road, which I moved off the pavement, and I have taken an unknown cat to the hospital after it was hit by a car. The cat had to be euthanized. In both cases, I sought the owner. To be anything less than honest to that woman in your case is unethical. |
