Can you legally bury a deceased pet in your yard? How about a decease (1 Viewer)

You widdled a coffin for crying out load.

Im calling dibs on "crying out load" as my metalcore band name.

I'll take "Widdled" then.

I'm going for "Widdled Out Load"

As long as the pet's deceased, it's ok.

Just bury it in your yard, I can't imagine worrying about if it was illegal if it was me. Your best bet would be to also bury the live ones with the dead one.

The old girl is in the ground. She's got a rock headstone and a bouquet of flowers as well. Far better than what I have in store for myself.

You should tart a little pet cemetery ...charge the neighbors

Just for the record, I'd rather bury a stranger.

Step ahead of you. This is animal 4. Kids had me bury their hermit crab, a bluejay and a chipmunk. This is the first real pet. The others are barely below the surface.

So one of my cats died today. The wife and I would rather go the route of burying her in the yard b/c 1) we don't want to pay the vet 100 bucks and 2) we have a big piece of property so why not. The wife thinks its illegal though so we were just going to do it and make up a story to the vet if he asked what happened to the cat. I called the health department, but they had no answer and suggested i call the police. I called the police and the dispatcher and just said she thinks so, but wasn't too sure.

When I asked a buddy if burying a dead pet was weird b/c that's the vibe I got on the phone or maybe its just that they didn't know so it was more uncertainty on their end that I was sensing, he posed the question if it was legal to bury a deceased family member. Like, could I get the body back from the morgue and throw it in the ground?

Is it your pet and your property?

Why are you seeking permission from bureaucrats to do what you want to do, and have every right to do?

Excellent point. I like smoking weed. I think I"m going to start growing again. When the cops come to arrest me, I'll just tell them its my property and I can do what I want on my property.

Here's the rule where I live:

If your pet has passed away and you wish to bury it, you may do so as long as it is buried at least 3 feet beneath the surface of the ground and not closer than 300 feet to any flowing stream or public body of water. Large animals may also be buried, but they must be at least 4 feet below the ground surface. An owner must bury a pet within 24 hours of learning of its death.

I am going to guess that would be close to most municipalities rules.

Here they also collect dead pets for you if you call for a pick up.

"Yes, waste management? I'm gonna dump Whiskers down by the curb. Can I get a pick up please?"

Pretty much exactly that.

Just because your overlords have thousands of ways to turn peaceful people into criminals doesn't make it right.
