By spamming pictures of their dead pets over the internet? It's one thing to discuss their passing, it's another to post a pic of their corpse.
At the very least, they could place it under a spoiler/NSFW tag.
Oh shit! That’s awful!
I thought they meant pictures of pets from when they were alive. Who even has a picture of their pet’s corpse in the first place?!? Just recalling the moment my 14-year-old dog went limp in my arms when he was put to sleep is enough to make me want to vomit.
While I have seen corpse pictures on forums for cats and dogs, I think I see it more on "exotic" pet forums, like guinea pigs, rats, mice, lizards, snakes, and spiders/insects. It's distressing regardless, because that was someone's beloved pet, but also no one needs to see their corpse; a pic of when it was alive is perfectly acceptable when discussing grief. I just don't see the point of posting a picture of the corpse, it just feels unnecessary.
I have had pets pass away, and I wouldn't even think of taking a photo. It just feels so weird to me. Im not the OP of this post, but I get what they're saying.
Because posting pictures of corpses is generally considered insulting to the corpse as well as morbid.
