Never feel right no matter how we dispose of them.

Nowadays ? Cremation and put the ashes in the garden beneath a nice plant or a rose bush. Always sad though.

cozietoesie · 28/08/2012 09:39

Sorry - until now, they've always been buried in the garden, wrapped in one of my sweaters with their favourite toy. And then given a nice plant over them.

Do you mean the victims of keen hunting felines, or the deceased felines themselves?

D0oinMeCleanin · 28/08/2012 09:51

I used to phone my grandad to come and get them because I was a wimp. Having a terrier, soon put a stop to that, removing half rotted rabbits from his mouth is nothing compared to bagging up the cat's fresh offerings.

Victims, Nutella. 2 cats = piles of gifts / victims.

My mum just double bags them and shoves them in the bin.

My two are house cats so don't have the opportunity to kill things.

cozietoesie · 28/08/2012 09:55

Ooh - sorry. Should have asked. Small things went down the toilet. Larger things in the bin - but there were very very few 'gifts'. Guess they tasted better than Whiskas!

They probably do nutella unless you're lucky enough never to have had a single mouse in the house.

SecretNutellaMedallist · 28/08/2012 09:57

no mice at all.

cozietoesie · 28/08/2012 09:59

Well - none you've ever seen evidence of!

Ours go in the hedge. There must be a mountain of little skeletons in there now as ours are devoted catchers of things, up to and including rabbits

Chucked into the ivy under the yew tree.

lljkk · 28/08/2012 14:59

So far we seem to compost, but some shoved in the hedge. Neither seems right!

We bury ours in pil garden. They have little crosses over the graves so we know who is who when the house is sold.

SummerRain · 28/08/2012 18:26

I chuck them up the end of the garden for the magpies

Ginger kitten keeps presenting me with his sparkly red toy mouse.... I'm dreading him going outside tbh, I'll be inundated Grin

Fluffycloudland77 · 28/08/2012 18:32

Oh, were talking prey not pets arent we?

Oops.

We do not have lots of birds and mice lovingly buried in pil garden.

justtryingtodomybest · 28/08/2012 18:35

Mine just get put in the bin. Tends to be little birds or mice. Worst time was two blackbirds (which were much the same size as the cat) - there were feathers everywhere!

Lazycah · 28/08/2012 18:43

Dcat brought me a frog yesterday. I assume frogs don't taste too good, as she dropped it at my feet, then sauntered off.
Dfrog was playing dead and hopped off into the sunset Smile

I put a large rat in the recycling bin once and was too squeamish to fish it out again when I realised
Luckily that's the only corpse we've ever been given - having stupid cats does have its advantages.

lljkk · 28/08/2012 19:38

Blimey, some of you have been thru a lot of pet cats.
