and then got run over again or maybe it all happened at the same time.
How long does rigor mortis last? His legs, tail and head are all stiff but the body is still soft. So is rigor mortis just setting in or leaving? Also, memorial service and burial is in 2 days so I have him in a freezer. Do I put him in dry ice till then? I suppose I have to thaw him to get him in a comfortable position in the casket?
Thanks for any info or knowledge.

Rigor mortis lasts about 24-48 hours? I think - when you get him out the freezer it will take around 24 hours for him to thaw out before you can position him. I'm a vet nurse and sometimes have to remove animals from the freezer if an owner decides they want to take them home after all - we try to get them out 24 hours before and then by the time the owner arrives we're able to position the cat 'comfortably' and clean them up a bit to look presentable.

Too undesirable with regard to the girl. i'm not greatly surprised. a brilliant variety of stay shows get out of hand. The stay overall performance promoters could have had so lots greater law enforcement officers obtainable. i've got in basic terms long gone to a million stay overall performance and the chaos is in simple terms too lots. he gets sued, the city and stay overall performance hall additionally. you in basic terms could desire to make valuable that he became quite going 40 5 mph, write down each thing you could bear in thoughts, (courtroom would be an prolonged time from now.) Write down what the guy did, suggested, how the girl have been given hit, and so on. you would be a brilliant witness and a paper path will enable you bear in thoughts. The undesirable lady, i could not think of having a brilliant evening at a stay overall performance and then it finally ends up like that. Her buddies could be freaked out.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's sad when an animal gets hit by a car. After you bury the kitty, make sure there is a beautiful plant or rose bush there so you will always remember the joy.

they are stiff in an hour..it would be best to position him the way you want him buried before you put him in the freezer so you wont have to thaw him out
