Reminds me of a story my mate told me. His neighbors were going on holiday overseas and wanted him to look after their pet cat. The cat was fairly old but he agreed. The family rang every now and then to check how the cat was. Which wasn't a problem until the bloody thing died. So he dug a hole in his back yard to bury it. Unfortunately the hole wasn't big enough to fit the cat so he had to cut it in half to fit it in. The next time the family rang, he couldn't bring himself to tell them their loved cat was dead so just said he's fine. Well soon it was time for the family to come back and collect their cat. With only a few days left he said he had to come clean and the next time the family rang he told them the cat died. They were devastate but new the cat was old. That's not the worst part. They wanted to take the body home and re-bury it. "You can't". Why not? Ummm . . . You just can't". It's already buried. They were adamant they wanted to take the cats body back. "Look . . It's in two fucken pieces".
I don't think they will let him look after their pets again.
