RIP my best friend "A pet dog missed the family’s dead cat so much that he dug up his grave and brought the body back into the house.→[More:]
When Oscar’s owners woke up the next morning they discovered the dog curled up beside Arthur, the late cat, in his basket."

Poor Puppy lost his bestest friend, bless his lil furry heart.

That's so sad.

But if my cats could talk, they would say this is another example on how dogs are stoopid.

Hi meeshell. Welcome to mecha.

I feel kinda funky saying this, but here goes: I'm not trying to harsh on your post, but I wonder if a mod would mind "more inside"-ing the bulk of this - it's kinda tough to see every time I look at the front page. We just lost our cat a couple of months ago. Thanks.

Aww.
This is more proof loved pets will not eat you when you're dead.

Sorry, bmarkey. The Bees is my first cat in, oh, almost five years? i feel ya.

That's so sweet and sad, but I'm glad he has a new friend.

Good one. Limpet is a great cat name.

Agreed. Sweet and sad. With a touch of "ick". Imagine the surprise on the owners' faces when they come in and see a clean, dead cat curled up in his basket!!!

Welcome meeshell.

What a horrible thing to have to go through. Our back yard is a pet cemetary by now, but we make sure to put objects over the graves, and keep an eye on the dog.

Anyway, glad to have you here. . .

bullshit. A dog digging up a dead cat? Pfft.

They buried the cat in a fucking Pet Sematary. The zombie cat came back, got into the house, and ordered the poor dog to lick it clean. Then he told the dog that if he said anything, he'd kill him like he was going to do with the rest of the family.

Fortunately he was not very smart, and when the family appeared, he decided to play dead in order to not arouse suspicions. The family then buried the beast again. The family and the dog are safe... for now.
