People keeping dead pets in the freezer....or stuffed...would you ??

[nickyboy]

I wonder how much it increases the cremating time starting from frozen.

I just checked the instructions on a packet of Greggs Steak Bakes we have in the freezer and it's 35min from frozen or 25min from thawed. So I guess you could extrapolate from there, size wise

The people that we should worry about are the ones who keep their live pets in the freezer!

Chris Packham has Aspergers.

Thank you for pointing that out to those who don't know, his brain is wired differently to others.

There's pastry on that, and no bones.

Yes, you'd want to be very careful to ensure it's cooked all the way through before eating any.

Not Pets, but......

I was in Longyearbyen recently and they don't do burials.

Bodies become perfectly preserved in the permafrost so sins about 1950 there have been no burials.

If you are sick or die, you are shipped back to the mainland for your last resting place

I knew a girl at school whose family always had a pet jack russell. They had them skinned when they died and hanged the pelts on the living room walls.

I have 2 stuffed Red Squirrels in a display case in the loft..over 100 years old..I don't like them but there a hand down..so I'll hand them down to the grand kids..

As for freezing a pet..no.
70 quid to have our little terrier cremated after the needle..I thought about burial in the garden but I've dug up loads of pet graves over the years doing garden work..so I decided to cremate.

I hope they are dressed, or otherwise whimsically mimicking humans.

I lost my yorkie pip after Christmas, got his ashes back at the vets £130 inc pts he's still with me and Bonnie on the boat wish he was still here in body though.

When you have a pet cremated, make sure you pay for an individual cremation, else they just get chucked in the oven with a load of others and you get a mix of ashes back.

worse than these?

Three of our departed cats are buried in the garden, couldn't put another in as ground too frozen to do any digging, so had to leave her at the vet
I've kept their collars and have a wee plant for each of them as a memory.
