Poor Elf! I hope she is chasing butterflies and dining on premium steak in pussy cat heaven... RIP Elf.
Personally, I would let my kids help with the burial of our animals, but not with the retrieval. If Elf is particularly erm... messy (??) from the highway mishap then I would wrap her up in a towel before the kids are involved. I don't think they need to see their beloved pet in that state and I think it might encourage the disturbing idea that all death results in a bloody or violent end, which of course is not true. Just my own opinion.
I'm sorry you lost your pet, she sounds like a lovely pussy cat.
I too would want a little burial. I don't think i would take my kids to retrieve elf though it depended on what Elf looked like.
Hugs to you and your family .
