Shallow Grave
Comments(0) | |
IMDB rating: 7.40 Plot: To avoid spoiling the movie this plot summary is very brief. It starts when three people living together in a four bedroom flat are looking for a house mate. The interviews they conduct are very unorthodox and very funny. Eventually the three agree on one prospective tenant. He moves in, locks his door, and is not seen again. After a couple of days the three become curious and break in to his room. What follows is an amazing piece of cinema and to say more would ruin it. |

help with shallow grave?
I had to dig a hole for a dead cat we found on a neighbor’s lawn. the old man next door just wanted to complain and try to convince me to toss it in the trash…but I couldnt do it. So i dug a hole and buried her. problem is the grave is shallow…anyone know if the cat will sink down into the earth…should I go and buy some soil/sand and put it on top for added measure?
Unless you live in an area with a lot of wildlife that will scavenge, then a shallow grave will not be a serious problem. There may be some subsidence, but it won’t be serious. It will be gradual, and adding some soil or sand as necessary will be all that will be required. At first, since you have dug up the ground, the soil you put back on top will have expanded, so the first thing is that it will compact.
Probably the soil that was displaced by the dead cat’s body would be all the soil you would need for the future.

If you don’t dig deep enough (3-4 feet) any stray animal will dig up the body. I suggest you add dirt and put some bricks over the spot.

I live on a very rocky hill with many Oak trees / roots. When I had to bury some of my animals, I dug down as far as I could ( not very, with the roots, rocks, etc ), then placed the body in the hole and covered with as much soil as I could. THEN…….I got some flowerbed "border stones" and a couple of large bags of potting soil and made a "raised flowerbed" over the grave. This makes the soil a lot deeper, and I’ve planted things in the bed…….making it very pretty, and deep enough that other animals don’t know the bodies are there..
Whenever another animal dies, I remove one end of the "border", dig another shallow hole, bury the new body, add more potting soil, and more stones……….enlarging the grave/flowerbed. I now have 3 cats and a parrot in this spot…….
Just what I had to do where I live……….Hope it helps you……..Good luck.
