Yes Cibach, their loving Spirit can go with you anywhere. I know what you mean about leaving their remains though, as there is still some attachment to them in that way.
I go out to Misty's grave every morning when I drink my first coffee. It has become my 'first thing' walk....similar to the 'poop and pee' foray we always made while I drank my first coffee in the morning. Same routine, only not into the field this time!
I know for sure Misty is not in the grave. All that was "her" is still happy and well, and often visits me. Her body is just a shape she wore when she was here.....kind of like a coat the real "Misty" wore. But nevertheless, even those bits and pieces in the grave still mean something to me.
Yes even those remains do still matter to us in some way.
I think it depends how big the creatures are as to how long they take to become part of the earth. I buried a large mouse and a small rat which Sally-cat killed. And only a couple of months or so later there was no trace, or very little trace, when I had to weed that garden.
