How long does it take for a buried horse to decompose?

Answer 1

some say a few days others say as long as three years. it depends on the temperature, the moisture and the depth at which the cat is buried. i buried my dad's cat about two feet under the ground sometime between November 2011 and January 2012. it was pretty warm for NC that time of year. we never had a good freeze that year. another one of our cats about 10 years ago disappeared and we never saw him again. He was very sickly after he had an infection. after doing some work under our house we found some cat bones around September or October of 2012. think it was my cat but I'm not sure. anyway hope this helps.
