I live in Los Angeles and it's Summer, which is really dry and hot. Our outdoor cat crawled beneath our house and died. It was her safe place and she'd always taken shelter, under there, if there were loud noises or threats of any kind. We decided to leave her there, if possible, in the place she loved, and where she went to die. The space is not accesible to humans. When she disappeared, we thought that she might be under there, but didn't know, for sure, until the unpleasant odor started building. It was strange, at first, because the smell arose from completely unrelated areas of the house. By the fourth day, it was evident that she was beneath the floor of my studio. I tossed an Earthcare odor absorbing bag through a ventilation port, as close to where she lay as possible. I ran an oxone generator in my studio, each night, with the door closed. She disappeared two weeks ago, last night. The odor started dissipating three days ago and today it is completely gone. Two weeks, exactly, in Los Angeles, in the summertime, is how long it took for our cat to decompose enough for the odor to cease.
The time for a cat decomposition depends on many factors. It depends on how large the cat is, where the dead cat body is buried, the temperature surrounding the dead cat, etc. In general, it can take around one to three years to decompose if buried. A cat can decompose faster, if buried in a hot climate or tropical area.
Actually decomposition of animal body depends on several factors among them size of the animal body and the location of the cat body and surrounding environmental temperature.
It normally take 1-3 years to decompose cats body if it buried.
