Feeling very low today....

[GT03ROB]

.... had a knock on the door at 8:30 yesterday evening & somebody asked if we had a cat. They had just followed a car that had hit our bengal & just driven off. It's a quiet country lane & you can go ages without anything going past.

Poor thing was just lying in the lane. I went to him & he was totally lifeless, Totally intact. Just picked him up & carried him in. At least it must have been instant. But feel so angry that the person just drove off.

Other 2 moggies are getting a lot of fuss this morning.

[moorx]

I'm really sorry to hear this

[BigMon]

[Mogsmex]

give the other ones loads of fuss is all you can do

[garythesign]

Sorry to read this.

[African Grey]

I feel your pain.

[Tyre Smoke]

Been there. Lost our little Merlot the same way. It's awful.

Take some comfort in it must have instant. No suffering at all.

Thoughts are with you.

[Spice_Weasel]

Sorry to hear this. We lost our Ginger Tom in the same way a couple of years back. Small village, minor road, hidden entrances etc yet cars go tearing through with little thought.

[anonymous-user]

How awful, sorry for your loss.

[bigpriest]

So sorry to hear that. It's no consolation but I'm glad someone had the understanding to let you know - the same happened to one of mine years ago only I had to search the local area for two days before finding her in some bushes by a busy road. Every minute of those two days, I expected her to walk through the door. Also it may be the case that the driver didn't know?

[Who me ?]

So sad. I'm a dog prson, but any pet to me is a loved pet.

[Patch1875]

Sorry for your loss.

[Jasandjules]

So sorry. It is not much consolation but at least there was no suffering. His soul will come back to you when you are both ready.

[Jamie VTS]

I’m so sorry for your loss.

[GT03ROB]

Said goodbye to him this morning.

As I carried him to the car in his basket, the other 2 cats came out of the bushes , as if they knew & wanted to say goodbye as well. I put the basket down & they both came to it.

Thank you for the kind words.

Sad morning for you and the other two cats.

It’s good they said goodbye

[Jasandjules]

It is good that you let the others say goodbye, they will mourn but at least they know what happened.

[Fermit and Sexy Sarah]

Sincere commiserations for your loss Rob, it's horrid. Maybe purchase some reflective collars for the other two as a safeguard?
