My daughter's cat

has just been run over by someone who didn't bother to stop.

Our neighbour drove me to the emergency vet with her, but on the way she died in my arms. She had severe head injuries.

My wife and daughter are distraught.

Dear Dorothy, you were such a gorgeous mog.

Some people are completely lacking in moral decency.
Poor pussy, I hope things get better for your family soon.

Sorry to hear that Ed

This is the reason I don't have cats anymore. I don't like it that they can just come and go as they please.

I have pulled over and picked many a dead cat off the side of the road that some **** has knocked over and not stopped

Sleep well Dorothy xxx

oh ed, you have my uttermost sympathy, we still miss ours two years on, they have a way of working themselves into our hearts...

Gutted...

Awww, really sorry to hear that.

I found a black cat on my drive one morning last year, obviously hit at night, such a shame.

In fairness to some car drivers, I suspect you often wouldn't even know you'd hit a cat if they pop out of the side of the road or from under a parked car, as they are wont to do.

sorry to here that Ed

some people don't have hearts

Sorry to hear that Ed

As much as mine annoys me sometimes, I do love having her about.

to be fair tho what's a driver suppose to do? No way of tracing the owners most of the time so they hit the cat pull up and then what? Just being honest i dont think id stop

sorry to hear about your cat tho

Oh crap, sorry to hear that Cat's seem to be quite binary and either make it with barely a scratch or they're a gonna, blessing and a curse I guess but at least it means that when they go they go quick and at a time when enough adrenalin would still be coursing through that one would hope it to be relatively painless.

take it to nearest vet? cat may have more of chance of surviving if seen to by a vet immediately. i do hope that you would rethink your i wont stop. i know its not a human but a cat is a humans companion and friend.. think about it i'm sure you wouldnt appreciate being left for dead if you were hit and run (yes cats in some peoples opinion dont have feelings but think bout the people that own them)

Ed, sorry to hear about your kitty.. it cuts to the core, its like losing a child.. (white van man knocked mine down in front on my eyes and drove on down the road)


big hugs and love to you & your family xxxxx
