About this book

• What would happen to an astronaut’s body in space? • Will I poop when I die? • Can we give Grandma a Viking funeral? Everyone has questions about death. In *Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?*, best-selling author and mortician Caitlin Doughty answers the most intriguing questions she’s ever received about what happens to our bodies when we die. In a brisk, informative, and morbidly funny style, Doughty explores everything from ancient Egyptian death rituals and the science of skeletons to flesh-eating insects and the proper depth at which to bury your pet if you want Fluffy to become a mummy. Now featuring an interview with a clinical expert on discussing these issues with young people—the source of some of our most revealing questions about death—*Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?* confronts our common fear of dying with candid, honest, and hilarious facts about what awaits the body we leave behind.
