RIP Waldo

We hardly knew ye....

I guess I killed Waldo. For nearly a year he lived in health and peace. Then suddenly I started buying new stuff; a larger cage, new accessories and worse yet...a new crab.

I got to work this morning and Waldo was out of his shell as he had been for a few days and lying lifeless in his pool.

So, what do you do with a dead hermit crab? Flush him? Bury him? Cremate him? Throw him in the trash?

Flushing could cause the toilet to back up. It's not a good thing when the corpse keeps returning.
It probably wouldn't take much to bury him; a spoon and a ziploc bag.
Cremating is not a good option, either. Everyone might think we're having a fish fry in the back room.
I think I might just wrap him up in some paper towels and give him a proper burial in the kitchen trash. The cleaning lady will take care of him tomorrow.
