What are the options that vet will give me? What options for body disposal with vet ( I dont want to bring her home to bury in back yard) Can you give me some kind of idea of cost for the vet? thank you >What are the options that vet will give me? >What options for body disposal with vet ( I dont want to bring her home to >bury in back yard) >Can you give me some kind of idea of cost for the vet? When I had to do it a while back it was about $99, the vet handled the burial. One thing to bear in mind, some cities/towns have ordinances that forbid you from burying the pet in your yard. How would they know you might ask? You may have a neighbor that decides to drop a dime. The vet will give you the option of using their cemetary or to take the body with you. If you take the remains with you bear in mind the restrictions in the last paragraph. > >What are the options that vet will give me? > >What options for body disposal with vet ( I dont want to bring her home to > >bury in back yard) [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > take the body with you.

If you wish to bring her ashes home in an urn it is more expensive than if you opt for a mass creamation with other cats. I actually never heard from anywhere that I had the option of using the vet's cemetary, but I may have asked about creamation before they had a chance to offer me other options.

The vet offered the cemetary, I didn't have to ask. That tells me they are aware of the complaints that some citiestowns have about burials in your yard. I had the option of having my cat cremated. Decided against it, i wanted to remember him as he was....alive. >When I had to do it a while back it was about $99, >the vet handled the burial.

Mark Zimmerman * Chicago To reply remove "nospam" if you care about your cat at all do not let the vet "dispose" of it. It's better in the back yard. A little more sentimental. >if you care about your cat at all do not let the vet "dispose" of it. It's >better in the back yard. A little more sentimental. And some communities have ordinances prohibiting the practice of burying it in your yard. I know, I live in one of those communities.
