Hi Ken thanks VB has a nice secluded spot on our allotment -better plant
some garlic nearby! And has a sort of cairn and logs marking his spot and
protecting him from Foxes (I'd pity any fox who messed with him even in his
death- hope he does not haunt the allotment- sounds at midnight etc
poetryetc)
Cheers P

AFAIK, our dog's ashes are still in a cherrywood box in my old dwelling. As
for the cats..I wanted to donate my 7 year old cat's remains to my vet's
school at the University of Pennsylvania. They were not taking donations. As
for my 17 year-old I knew I would carry the cat inside me forever. So he
went to a general disposal ash ground with other cats. He is still with me
anyway.
