This may not work for everyone, but I guess if I had a pet die at home and I could not afford cremation and could not bury in my backyard, I'd drive to a very rural area, walk out into a field or some woods and leave her where she would hopefully lay peacefully for at least a while. I know eventually animals might come and do what comes naturally, but to me that's better than the garbage truck.

Liane, you have my sympathy at this sad time.

Really ??!!
