If you were to buy a house and found
a pet grave in the back yard after the fact...


What would you do with it?

1. Is it still edible?
Seriously, I'd leave it unless I needed the room for a garden. In that case, I'd relocate it.

3. A pet grave, not much, a pet semetary, I would call in a local exorcist
and I'm not even a practicing Catholic!

5. Leave it alone or if anything plant flowers around it.
They deserve respect.

6. Cover it back up
Leave it there.

My kitty is buried on the side of the house, and I hope nobody ever digs her up. :(

8. check the discloures, see if it is noted. If not I'd hire
a real estate attorney and waste thousands of dollars and lots of time attempting to sue the former owners for not disclosing this very unsettling condition.

no, wait, I'd probably just complain to all my friends and acquaintances about how violated I feel and remark that I wish I could afford to hire...see above.

Seriously now, I'd probably re-bury what ever I might have dug up of if there's a head stone or some sort of marker I'd probably make sure it remained visible to I could show it to my guests.
We're tearing up our back yard this month, no telling what we'll find.

10. I collect skulls...
I'd probably check it out, otherwise I would just ignore it???

11. Depends on what kind of pet it was.
If it was a cat, I'd plant catnip over it. For a rabbit, maybe carrots or celery.
