Yeah. I am sure if I was actually decomposing and they were locked in they would eat me. However there are multiple ways they could get out of the house and they are already criminals when it comes to eating elsewhere so I think I would be decomposing in peace.
What happens to those cats anyway? Do they get put down? Because ewww gross, would you adopt a cat from a shelter if you knew it had eaten its previous owner?
I wouldn't. But then again cats creep me out so I wouldn't buy a cat anyways.
