What if ?

[biggs682]

My partner and I have just been discussing what would happen if our cat died whilst at the cattery .

Would they put him in the freezer till our return or ???

Hopefully this won't happen but at 19 he can't live for ever .

I'm sure the people at the cattery will have a tick sheet in order that you can select a preferred disposal method in line with the size of your wallet.

Our cattery used to bag a cat up and put it in the freezer if it died whilst owners were away. Not as uncommon as you might think.

It doesn't answer your question, but I have a similar looking one about 6 years younger that could well be looking for new home as one of my partners kids is allergic to them, apparently rehoming the child is in the "tricky" category.

19 is damn good age.

I do doggie/house sitting along with other animals a few years back one of the owners large Koi Carp died......panic I didn't want to let the owner know as it may have spoilt their holiday.
Their property backs on the a large woods so I dug a deep hole and put said fish wrapped in plastic in the hole and covered it over......I even put a cross on it.
When they got back they were quite nice about it, so I think I did the right thing if it had been a dog I think I would have told them straight away and follow their instructions.

I think they’d freeze it.
Our rabbit died when we were away.
the neighbour put it in the freezer. my dad buried it when we came home.
Not sure what happens if a horse dies?

You're gonna need a bigger freezer!

They boil the carcass, estimate the age of the owner and provide them with as many pots of glue as they'll ever need.

They'll replace it with similar and hope you don't notice. Perhaps you might notice something odd when he gets past 35 years old...

Boris has an ongoing need for lots of dead cats. There is probably a futures market in this commodity.

What if... The cat owners don't return, what will the cat do then?
