I walk to work (about 10 minutes) and this morning spotted a small fluffy bundle on top of a wall. I didn't really have time to check it out, but it played on my mind all day.
I checked it out on the way home, and it's a dead cat 
I work shifts (which is why I'm posting 12 hours after I first saw it) and have tomorrow off. I need advice on what to do:
a) Nothing
b) Go back with a cardboard pet carrier and rubber gloves and contact the local vet in the morning
c) Call the emergency vet and/or some kind of local council department
I don't think I'm heartless enough for option a. I was incredibly grateful to the stranger who took my cat to the vet when he was run over even though he didn't pull through. Option b seems logical but I would have to store it in the dustbin as I don't really want it in the house, but that seems disrespectful. Option c might be the proper way to do things, but I'd like to know that the owner knew what had happened.
I don't have dc's so am free to go with the MN verdict! Thank you

noooooooooooooooooooo my shame will live forever 
I like my name, too, and don't want to change
Was wondering how a thread with only 29 posts could possibly be in classics. Thought it was a mistake, but no, well worth it.
Proper belly laughs here.
Sorry OP you sound very kind.
I did wonder why this was in classics
Brilliant... Well perhaps not so good for you but thank you!! Here have another
It is like the Canadian fire department who spent hours trying to rescue a bear cub from a tree.
It was a black bin liner.
cheered up a miserable, rainy day OP. It was a lovely thing to do anyway and made us all laugh
I've been crying with laughter for the last 10 minutes
Yes, it's on my facebook - how could I not be proud of getting a thread into classics?! I also asked for advice on there last night
The vets and nurses know me (by sight at least) my now deceased cat was in the process of registering for Pets as Therapy and I have another cat and a house rabbit, so I have animals registered as patients there
That's hilarious. Never have I seen a thread take such a sudden sharp turn like that
Fabulous
You're going to have to put it back where you found it now!
Oh. My. God.
I'd never be able to go back to that vets!

Brilliant That gave me a much-needed laugh.
You do realise that you've probably stolen someone's toy cat (or creepy garden ornament), dont you? Are you going to smuggle it back?
I'm trying to upload the photo now that was taken to show DP what excitement he's missing by buggering off to a conference. I'll link once I've sorted it
