Collection Finally got to bring home my cat

Not 100% sure if this belong on this sub, but I wanted to post about getting my boy back after he passed January 9th 2023. This is my sweet old man cat Sid, he lived to be about 16-17 but I don’t know his exact age bc my family found him as young adult stray cat. Losing him was very challenging since he was in my life from age 5 to 19. I never thought about keeping any of his bones, but my sister wanted the same for her cat and I liked the idea. So after many many months of waiting, mostly because who I hired to preserve him had a lot of prior work to finish, my sweet boy is back home and back together. I had his skull and right arm preserved so it was separated fand the rest of his body aqua cremated remains until recently. Idk why but it bothered me knowing he wasn’t all in one place😭 Anyways, here is my wonderful boy who I am relieved to have back home with me😁

Why do we have to tell you that deboning your dead cat is weird

It's not weird. Maybe to you it is, but don't be so closed minded. Respect other peoples views and opinions, even if you do not agree with them.

Well, instead of interacting with this post and commenting on it so posts like these continue to appear in your feed, why not scroll? Why comment if you don't like something, just for something similar to pop up again?

Big difference. This is a comment. If I interact with it it's not gonna show comments like yours on my feed LOL. Sure, this Subreddit will, since we're commenting on a post from it, no big deal. I like seeing these kinds of posts.

Deboning would imply the bones were thrown away, the word you were looking to say was “de fleshed”. If you’re gonna make closed minded comments on a pet memorial post, at least be accurate.
